Studio apartments in good cause buildings for rent near M55 W 44 St - South Ferry in Greenwich Village, Manhattan

Good cause refers to a tenant-protection category, not a neighborhood or building rating. It points you toward apartments for rent in buildings where certain rent increases or non-renewals may be limited, but you still need to confirm the lease terms and any building-specific rules.

There are 12+ studio apartments for rent on this page. Because studio inventory can move quickly, check recent updates and be ready to act if a unit fits your budget and layout needs.

The median rent is $3,605. For studio apartments, use that number as a rough benchmark, but also compare total monthly cost after fees, utilities, and move-in charges.

No. Good cause is a market protection category, not an official affordable-housing program. These are market-rate apartments for rent, so income-restricted housing, subsidized housing, NYCHA, HPD, Section 8, and lottery units are separate programs.

Openigloo uses building-level status to surface apartments for rent in buildings tied to good cause protections. It is a filter for tenant-protection context, not a guarantee that every unit has the same lease terms, so verify the specifics before applying.

Confirm the full monthly cost, renewal language, deposit, broker fee, and any other charges. For a studio, also check whether the layout leaves enough space for sleeping, cooking, and storage without feeling cramped.
