transitLines is not a current Borough search parameter. This page is kept so older references resolve cleanly, but line-by-line transit filtering is not part of the live contract today.

​
What to use instead

  • minTransitScore for building-level transit accessibility filtering
  • areas for neighborhood and borough scoping
  • building score detail endpoints when you need the current transit score itself

​
Current status

These requests are common, but they are not current Borough filters:
  • transitLines
  • prewar
  • view-style amenity enums such as CITY_VIEW or WATER_VIEW
Instead of line filtering, you can filter by transit accessibility score:
Transit scores (0-100) are available on building detail responses via GET /v1/building/{id}/scores. The score is computed from MTA GTFS stop data based on:
  • Proximity (50 points): distance to the nearest transit stop, whether subway, bus, commuter rail (LIRR/Metro-North), or ferry
  • Density (50 points): number of stops within 400m radius
See Building Scores for details on how scores are computed.
