1-bedroom apartments in good cause buildings for rent near M55 W 44 St - South Ferry in Kips Bay, Manhattan

Good cause is a tenant-protection category. It is not a neighborhood name or a guarantee of lower rent. It generally relates to limits on certain rent increases or non-renewals, but you should still verify the building’s status and the lease terms with the agent or landlord.

There are 69+ 1-bedroom apartments for rent on this page. The median rent is $5,250, so it is useful to compare each unit’s asking rent against both your budget and the building’s tenant-protection details.

Confirm whether the building is actually covered by good cause protections, whether there are any broker fees or other move-in charges, and what the renewal terms look like. The asking rent is only part of the total monthly cost.

No. Good cause is a market and tenant-protection category, not income-restricted or subsidized housing. It does not mean the apartment is part of NYCHA, HPD, Section 8, or a housing lottery program.

Openigloo building reviews can help you spot patterns in management, repairs, noise, and move-in issues before you tour. That matters especially when you are comparing 1-bedroom apartments with a $5,250 median rent.

With 1-bedroom apartments, the unit count and median rent help you judge how much competition you may face and whether the area fits your budget. A 1-bedroom often costs more than a studio, so compare the asking rent with the full monthly cost, not just the bedroom label.
