Buildings highly rated for heat near the M21 bus in Soho

It’s a filter that prioritizes buildings with stronger heat-related performance signals in Openigloo data. Still, heat can vary by unit, so confirm details with the building (controls, response times, and how issues are documented).

“M21 bus” is a location filter for walking convenience to the M21 route. Stops and walking times can differ block to block, so check the exact stop you’d use and your commute timing before touring.

The page is built from Openigloo signals (including what’s surfaced in reviews and renter-reported details) and the building rating for rated buildings. You should treat it as a shortlist and verify the heating situation directly with management.

Look for repeated themes, not just single comments. If there are heat complaints, check whether the follow-ups describe real fixes, timelines, or ongoing problems—then ask management the same questions during your tour.

Confirm how heat is delivered and controlled in your specific apartment, how maintenance requests are logged and answered, what’s included with the rent, and any related fees or deposit requirements.

No. Even in highly rated buildings, unit-level conditions and management practices can differ. Verify thermostat access, whether utilities are handled consistently, and request maintenance procedures in writing.
