What does “pre-war” mean on this page?

It means the building was built before 1947. Use that to anticipate older infrastructure and maintenance needs, then confirm the current condition with the management team.

What does “near the S train” mean here?

It’s a transit-access filter applied within the Manhattan scope. Treat it as a location guide for your commute, and verify the walk time from the building to your typical S-train stop.

How is Openigloo helping me compare these buildings?

Openigloo aggregates building-level information, renter feedback signals, and tenant Q&A so you can compare buildings with a consistent checklist before you commit to a lease.

Are pre-war buildings more likely to have maintenance or utility issues?

They can, since they’re older, but the real answer varies by building. Ask for recent upgrade details (heat/hot water performance, plumbing/electrical work, elevator status) and confirm what’s included in the monthly cost.

What should I confirm before applying or signing a lease?

Confirm the exact move-in date, fees (application, move-in, deposits), utility responsibility, and any building rules (pets, storage, laundry, and noise policies). Compare those items across buildings, not just the rent.

Will the filter guarantee a specific lease term or building condition?

No. These filters define building age and transit access, but they don’t guarantee unit condition, management practices, or lease terms. Use the building details and tenant Q&A, then verify everything with the agent.

Are there any data limits I should keep in mind for older buildings?

Yes. Openigloo signals help you start with better questions, but conditions can change between data updates. For any concern (repairs, pests, renovations), ask for current documentation and recent maintenance records.
