Studio apartments in good cause buildings for rent near M2 Washington Heights - East Village in Hell's Kitchen, Manhattan

Good cause refers to tenant-protection buildings, not a place. In general, it can limit certain rent increases or non-renewals, but the exact rules depend on the building and lease terms.

This page currently shows 18+ studio apartments for rent in Hell's Kitchen, Manhattan near M2, with a median rent of $3,977.

It is the midpoint of the current asking rents on this page. For a studio, use it as a budgeting anchor, but also check fees, deposits, utilities, and whether the layout works for your living setup.

Ask whether the unit is covered by good cause protections, what rent changes may apply at renewal, and whether the lease has any building-specific rules or add-ons that change your monthly cost.

Location near M2, building age, amenities, lease length, broker fee, and utility costs can all change the real monthly cost even when the asking rent looks manageable.

This page does not use the affordable filter. If you see Openigloo affordable pages elsewhere, that filter is market-relative: it uses asking rents at or below the 25th percentile for the page’s scope, not income-restricted or lottery housing.
