Top rated buildings near the M14A-SBS bus in Manhattan

It means the buildings shown are in the Manhattan scope and are mapped as being near the M14A-SBS bus corridor. You should still confirm the real travel time from the specific street address to your common destinations.

“Top rated” is an Openigloo filter for buildings with high review scores. The score reflects aggregated renter feedback, so it’s a starting point for comparison, not a guarantee of conditions in your specific unit.

Scan both the overall rating and the newest or most relevant renter notes. Look for patterns (maintenance speed, building management communication, noise, cleanliness) that align with what you’re optimizing for.

Not necessarily. A high rating can still come with specific tradeoffs. It helps to read multiple renters’ perspectives and confirm key policies with the building management before applying.

Confirm the total monthly cost (rent plus any additional recurring charges), the move-in requirements (deposit/broker fee if applicable), and unit-specific items like utilities, laundry access, and condition of the apartment.

East Village with 11,857+ buildings; Yorkville with 9,328+ buildings; Hell's Kitchen with 6,943+ buildings; Lenox Hill with 8,357+ buildings; Kips Bay with 4,472+ buildings.

Use review context to draft targeted questions for the building or listing contact. For example: how maintenance requests are handled, what to expect during repairs, and how policies are applied in practice (packages, guests, or noise complaints).
