What does “good cause” mean on this page?

It refers to buildings with tenant protections that can limit certain rent increases or non-renewals. It does not mean the apartment is affordable or subsidized.

How many 2-bedroom apartments for rent are near 51 St in good cause buildings?

There are 3 apartments for rent on this page, with a median rent of $7,495.

Is this income-restricted, subsidized, or housing-lottery housing?

What should I confirm before applying?

Confirm the building’s good cause status, the lease term, any broker fee, security deposit, and whether utilities are included. For a 2-bedroom, also check how the layout works for two occupants and whether the rent leaves room in your budget for move-in costs.

What factors can affect whether a good cause apartment still feels affordable?

Location near 51 St, building age, amenities, lease terms, and added costs like utilities or fees can all change the real monthly cost, even when the asking rent looks manageable.
