What does “low-open-violations” mean on Openigloo?

It’s a screening filter based on open violation signals from NYC open records. It helps you compare buildings, but it doesn’t replace asking the building directly about current maintenance and any recent issues.

What does the “m12-bus” filter cover?

It narrows results to buildings near the M12 bus corridor in West Chelsea so you can prioritize commute along that route. It’s location-based, so you’ll still want to confirm exact walking time and stop locations during your search.

How many West Chelsea buildings match this multi-filter view?

Openigloo shows 77+ buildings that fit both the low-open-violations filter and the M12 bus location filter (as of 2026-07-07).

Are the violation signals up to date?

NYC open-records data can lag real-world conditions. Use the filter as a starting point, then ask management for the current status of any relevant items and request details during your lease conversation.

How should I use the building rating in this search?

Treat the rating as a high-level signal. For this page, the neighborhood stats show 3.8/5 across 35 rated buildings. Read the renter context in Openigloo and confirm details that matter for your specific unit and lease terms.

What should I confirm before I sign a lease, even if violations look low?

Confirm unit-specific condition (heat, hot water, pests history), maintenance response expectations, and whether anything is planned or underway. Also verify move-in requirements, deposits/fees, and any building rules that could affect your daily routine.
