What does “high-rise” mean on this page?

It uses a 13+ floors filter. The building page should indicate the building’s height/levels so you can verify before you proceed.

How does “near the W train” work here?

The page is scoped to buildings matched to the W subway route. You should still confirm the nearest entrance and walking time based on the specific stop(s) you use.

How many buildings match these filters?

There are 712+ high-rise buildings near the W train on Openigloo right now.

What should I confirm with the building before signing a lease?

Ask about elevator reliability and wait times, move-in procedures, any building rules that affect daily routines, and the full fee schedule (application, move-in, and any recurring charges) beyond the asking rent.

Do the Openigloo signals replace a tour or application process?

No. Openigloo helps you shortlist faster, but you should still do a walkthrough, review lease paperwork carefully, and ask direct questions about repairs, utilities, and any amenity policies.

Where do building-condition or safety signals come from?

Some signals come from public NYC records that Openigloo compiles. Those records can lag real-world conditions, so use them as a starting point and confirm current status directly.

If a building has multiple units, do conditions and fees apply the same way to every unit?

Not always. Amenities, utilities, view factors, and even specific rules can vary by unit type and lease. Treat the building-level info as guidance and verify for the exact apartment you’re considering.
