Pre-war buildings near the Q12 bus in Queens

The page narrows results to buildings mapped as near the Q12 bus corridor. Still, walking time can differ block by block, so confirm which stop you’ll use and how long the walk feels in your routine.

Not necessarily. The page is scoped to 790+ pre-war buildings near the Q12 route, but availability can change. Use the building details and current listings status in Openigloo as your starting point.

Even when you find a unit you like, confirm the full monthly and move-in picture: deposits, utility responsibilities, and any building-required fees. Tenant Q&A and building notes can help, but you should still ask management for the exact breakdown.

Check both. Older buildings can be well maintained, but the condition can vary. Ask about elevator service, heating and hot water reliability, and whether recent repairs are complete before you commit.
