What does “pre-war” mean on Openigloo for this Manhattan building search?

“Pre-war” means the building was built before 1947. That scope is based on building history data, so you can target older construction while you compare building pages.

How does the M15-SBS bus filter work—does it guarantee a specific commute time?

No. It narrows the buildings to the Manhattan area near the M15-SBS route, but it does not guarantee an exact walk or travel time. Confirm commute time from your intended start point and your likely unit location.

How should I use reviews and tenant Q&A when looking at pre-war buildings?

Treat them as context for day-to-day experience—maintenance follow-through, responsiveness, and common issues. Use them to build a question list, then verify details directly with the building staff before signing.

What should I ask about during a showing in a pre-war building near the bus?

Ask about heating and hot water performance, noise insulation, window condition, and any planned work. If you care about sound from street activity or bus traffic, discuss how the specific unit faces the avenue or cross street.

Can older buildings have different lease terms or building rules?

Yes. Policies often vary by building, including pets, laundry access, package handling, and move-in rules. Use the building page to spot patterns, then confirm the exact policy and any fees with leasing.
