What to check before choosing a pre-war building near the 6 train in Midtown South
- Confirm the building’s pre-war status with the address and ask for the year built if it isn’t listed in your unit details.
- Check the commute the way you’ll live it: distance to 6 train stops can still mean different walk times depending on the entrance you use.
- Before signing, ask about move-in costs beyond rent (security deposit, any building/admin fees, and whether fees are refundable).
- If you’re applying through a broker or agent, request a written breakdown of all charges tied to the lease start date.
- Use the tenant Q&A and rating history to flag repeat issues to ask about during your showing (noise, maintenance response, elevator access, package handling).
