What to check before for pre-war buildings near the 5 train in Murray Hill

  • Expect older building infrastructure: confirm heating, hot-water setup, elevator status, and any recent capital work during showings.
  • Because this is both “pre-war” and “near the 5 train,” check the specific block for noise and building street exposure, not just the station name.
  • Use the building pages to review what’s currently advertised and compare similar layouts across multiple buildings before you apply.
  • Before you sign, confirm the FULL monthly move-in picture: rent plus deposits, broker fee if applicable, and utilities that may not be included.
  • Verify lease details in writing (renewal terms, start/end dates, and any restrictions on subletting) since building age can correlate with different management practices.
