Buildings with low historical violations near the QM20 bus in Manhattan

It’s a filter based on NYC open records of past building violations. Openigloo uses those signals to help you compare buildings, but the status of a building today can differ from the record timeline.

It limits results to buildings near the QM20 bus corridor so your commute route is built into the building search. Still confirm the stop you’ll use and the walking time from the unit’s location.

No. “Low historic violations” reduces the odds based on records, but it does not guarantee current conditions. Ask direct questions about current maintenance, pest control, and how requests are handled.

Openigloo’s low-historic-violations filter is derived from publicly available NYC open records. Because records can take time to update, they may reflect earlier periods rather than the most recent building state.

Ask about recent repairs, maintenance turnaround times, pest-prevention practices, and any active compliance work. If the building references past issues, ask what changed and whether remediation is complete.

Use them as renter-first context alongside the open-data signals: look for themes about responsiveness, cleanliness, and whether reported issues get resolved. Then match that with what you observe during your visit.
