Rent-stabilized verified studio apartments for rent near transit in Battery Park City, Manhattan

It means the apartment is tagged as rent-stabilized, which may come with regulated rent increases and renewal protections. You should still confirm the unit’s legal status, the current lease terms, and how renewals work before applying.

Verified is a listing-quality signal on Openigloo. It can help you screen apartments for rent, but it does not guarantee the unit’s condition, final pricing, or that the apartment will remain available.

There are 13+ apartments for rent on this page, and the median rent is $4,684. For budgeting, compare that figure with the full monthly cost, not just the asking rent.

No. Openigloo’s rent-stabilized filter is a regulatory category, not an official affordable-housing program. It does not mean income-restricted housing, subsidized housing, NYCHA, HPD, Section 8, or a housing lottery unit.

Rent-stabilized apartments are regulated apartments with certain protections, while affordable on Openigloo is a separate market-relative filter based on asking rent. A rent-stabilized unit is not automatically affordable housing, and an affordable apartment is not the same as a rent-stabilized apartment.

Look at commute time, platform access, and how much extra space you need in a studio layout. In a smaller unit, the kitchen, sleeping area, storage, and bathroom setup matter more than in a larger apartment.

Confirm the move-in date, broker fee if any, security deposit, utilities, pet rules if relevant, and whether the unit’s verified status matches the current posting. The asking rent is only one part of what you will pay each month.
