Pre-war buildings near the R train in West Village

It’s the building age filter. Openigloo’s “pre-war” pages focus on buildings built before 1947; still, confirm the exact build year shown on the building page before you tour.

The scope is West Village, and the R train pairing is location-based. Always check the building page’s location details and confirm your own walking/commute time to the R stop you’d use most.

No. This page is about the building’s age category (pre-war) and an R-train location pairing. It does not indicate rent regulation or income restrictions by itself.

Use the rating as a quick screening signal, then read renter Q&A for the context behind it. Scores summarize sentiment, but questions you ask the building (repairs, noise, maintenance cadence) are what confirm fit for your unit.

Ask about recent maintenance, how issues are handled after move-in, any building rules that affect your routine, and the lease terms (including renewal expectations). If you’re sensitive to transit noise, ask about street-facing exposure.

Not necessarily. Proximity to transit can correlate with street noise depending on the exact block and orientation. If noise matters, check the building’s location details and ask about sound insulation and common complaint patterns in renter Q&A.
