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

It means the building is categorized as built before 1947. Use it to focus your search, then confirm unit-level condition and upgrades with the building directly.

How does the “BX6-SBS bus” filter work for commuting?

It targets buildings located near the BX6-SBS bus corridor. Still, the exact stop distance and walking route can vary by address, so check the stop details on each building page.

Are there open-data or record-based signals behind what I see on Openigloo?

Openigloo surfaces building-level information and community signals. When you see issues called out in Q&A, confirm what’s current with management, especially for maintenance, repairs, and access rules.

How should I use building ratings on this page?

Use the 3.0/5 average as a starting point across 123 rated buildings, then read the tenant Q&A and check the specific unit details. Ratings are building-level and may not reflect your individual apartment experience.

What costs should I confirm before applying or signing a lease?

Confirm the full monthly cost and move-in requirements: security deposit, any broker fee, and any recurring utilities or building fees that apply to your unit.

Does pre-war automatically mean rent is higher or that buildings have certain amenities?

No. “Pre-war” is about the building’s construction era. Amenities, services, and affordability vary by building, so confirm what’s included for your unit.
