Pre-war buildings near the S98 bus in NYC

It means the building’s construction date is before 1947. Use it to narrow the building type, then confirm the current condition, systems, and policies for the specific address.

The page groups eligible buildings around the S98 route so you can focus on commute-friendly options. Still confirm your route and walking time to the nearest stop for your schedule.

No. The building count reflects eligible buildings for this filter set, not live availability in every building. Openigloo shows what’s currently advertised per building when listings are available.

Ask about heat/hot water reliability, any pending building repairs, pest/maintenance history for the unit, and the building’s rules (laundry, package handling, smoking, and any move-in requirements).

Reviews and tenant Q&A are helpful signals, but they can’t replace a unit inspection and direct conversations with the managing agent. Use them to generate specific questions, not to assume outcomes.

Even when rent is manageable, confirm the full monthly cost and move-in requirements: security deposit, broker fee if applicable, and how utilities are handled for that unit.

This page is focused on building age (pre-war) and proximity to the S98 route. If you need specific regulatory categories or other protections, use additional filters on Openigloo to narrow further.
