Studio apartments in good cause buildings for rent near M79-SBS Yorkville - West Side in NYC

It means the apartments are in buildings associated with good cause tenant protections. That category can affect certain rent increases or non-renewals, but it is not a neighborhood and it does not replace reading the lease.

There are 113+ studio apartments for rent in this scope, and the median rent is $3,520. Use both numbers as a quick budget check, since studio pricing can shift with location, building age, and lease terms.

Start with the $3,520 median rent, then compare it with the full monthly cost. Fees, utilities, deposits, and any broker fee can change the actual amount you pay, especially in smaller studio units.

Confirm whether the building’s good cause status applies to the unit you want, then ask about renewal terms, rent increase limits, deposits, broker fees, and any move-in charges. The lease language still matters.

No. Good cause is about tenant protection, not a price cap. Asking rent, fees, and move-in costs can still be high, so check the full cost before you sign.

Openigloo lets you compare apartments for rent with building and landlord review context, so you can look beyond the asking rent and spot recurring issues before touring or applying.

For a studio, look at how the sleeping area fits with the kitchen setup and storage, since those details can affect livability more than the square footage number alone.
