It narrows buildings to those flagged as pre-war and located near the 7-train corridor, within the Sunnyside neighborhood in Queens.

How many buildings match this page’s filters right now?

Openigloo shows 868+ buildings in Sunnyside that match the 7-train + pre-war filters (as of 2026-07-07).

Is the “pre-war” label a guarantee about building condition?

No. Pre-war is a building-age signal. Condition varies block to block, so use the tenant Q&A and ask the building directly about current maintenance, heat/hot water, elevator reliability, and any recurring issues.

How should I use the rating number when comparing buildings?

Treat the rating as one data point. This page’s average is based on 47 rated buildings, so make sure you read tenant Q&A themes and compare multiple buildings rather than focusing on a single score.

What should I confirm about commute convenience even after filtering for the 7 train?

Confirm the specific stop you’ll use, walking time in different weather, and whether you’ll rely on transfers or buses. “Near” can still mean different practical routes depending on the exact building block.

Does pre-war on Openigloo mean there are fewer rules or fees?

No. Building age doesn’t remove application requirements. Before applying, ask about move-in logistics, required documentation, deposit terms, and the full set of move-in costs beyond just the monthly asking rent.
