Studio apartments in good cause buildings for rent near parks in Midtown South, Manhattan

Good cause refers to a tenant-protection category, not a neighborhood or a building quality score. It can affect how certain rent increases or non-renewals are handled, so read the lease terms carefully and confirm the protections that apply to the specific building.

There are 13+ studio apartments for rent in this scope. With a studio search, the number of units, the $4,795 median rent, and the size of the unit all matter when you plan a budget.

The median rent is $4,795. Use that as a midpoint reference, but still compare the asking rent, fees, utilities, and move-in costs for each studio apartment.

No. Openigloo's good cause filter is a tenant-protection category, not official affordable housing. It does not mean the apartment is income-restricted, subsidized, NYCHA, HPD, Section 8, or part of a housing lottery.

Good cause is about tenant protections in the building or lease context. It does not set a rent cap the way market-relative affordable apartments do, and it is not an official affordable-housing program.

For studios, look closely at the layout, storage, kitchen setup, and whether the sleeping area works for your day-to-day routine. In a smaller unit, these details can matter as much as the rent itself.

Ask about broker fees, security deposit, utilities, move-in timing, and any lease clauses that affect renewals. For a good cause building, also confirm exactly how the tenant protections apply to that unit.
