What does “2-train” mean for these Upper West Side buildings?

It means the building is filtered for proximity/access to the 2 line. Use the building page to confirm the most convenient station entrance and typical walking time for your route.

What does “high tenant retention” indicate?

It’s a tenant-retention signal used to surface buildings where tenants tend to stay longer. It’s a planning input, not a guarantee of how a specific unit will feel for every household.

How should I use this page before applying?

Shortlist a handful of buildings, then read tenant Q&A and the building details. Focus on recurring themes (maintenance, management responsiveness, noise, and daily livability) and verify the exact lease terms in writing.

Does the tenant-retention filter override unit-by-unit differences?

No. Even within the same building, unit condition, exposure, and layout can differ. Retention is building-level context; confirm the specifics for the exact apartment you’re considering.

What if I don’t see what I need in the building signals?

Ask the building directly about the items that affect your decision: deposit and move-in fees, utility responsibility, lease renewal expectations, and any restrictions that could impact your move.

Which neighborhoods are trending in this scope?

East Village with 11,857+ buildings; Hell's Kitchen with 6,943+ buildings; Yorkville with 9,328+ buildings; Lenox Hill with 8,357+ buildings; Kips Bay with 4,472+ buildings.

Are these building signals based only on recent experience?

Openigloo uses available building-level signals and tenant-focused information, but no dataset is perfect. Treat it as a starting point and still confirm conditions and policies directly with the landlord or managing agent.
