Buildings with low open violation rates near Van Cortlandt Park-242 St station in NYC

This page uses NYC open-record signals to filter for buildings with fewer open violations. It’s a risk-reduction screen, not a guarantee that there are no issues in a specific apartment or during your lease term.

Openigloo aggregates open-record information and pairs it with building-level signals like rated buildings, plus tenant-relevant context such as Q&A where available, so you can compare options without relying on one data source.

No. Conditions can change after the open-record snapshot, and some problems may not appear the way you’d expect for a given unit. You should still ask management about maintenance response times and any active work.

No. It’s a location filter tied to buildings near that specific station. You may see buildings in nearby blocks, but it’s not the same as a single neighborhood boundary.

Ask what maintenance requests are like in practice (how long they take), whether there are any building-wide projects scheduled, and whether there are known issues that could affect your unit (heat, hot water, pests, noise).

Open-records can lag real-world conditions. If you’re concerned about pests, ask for the most recent treatment documentation and the building’s prevention process, and consider requesting an in-person inspection.

Start by shortlisting based on the low-violation filter, then confirm unit details, lease terms, and move-in requirements quickly. If a building has multiple unit types, ask whether maintenance and conditions are consistent across floors or exposures.
