Rent-stabilized apartments for rent near M42 United Nations - W 42 St Pier in Midtown, Manhattan

It means the apartments are in a regulated category with limits on rent increases and certain renewal protections. It does not mean the monthly rent is low, and it does not remove the need to review the lease and building conditions carefully.

There are 65+ apartments for rent in this scope right now. The median rent is $5,289, so budget planning should account for both the asking rent and the rest of your monthly housing costs.

No. Rent-stabilized is a regulatory category, not an income-restricted or subsidized housing program. These apartments are still market-rate rentals, with protections tied to the rent-stabilized rules rather than a housing lottery or voucher program.

Openigloo uses the listing and building data available for the page scope and labels homes that fall into the rent-stabilized category. You should still confirm the unit status with the agent or landlord before applying, since records and renovations can affect how a unit is classified.

Ask about the current lease term, renewal rules, rent history if available, broker fee, security deposit, application fee, and any move-in restrictions. The asking rent is only part of the full monthly and upfront cost.

Location near Midtown transit, building age, amenities, lease length, and any extra fees can all raise your real cost. Even with rent stabilization, the full monthly cost may be higher than the asking rent suggests.

Openigloo lets you check building and landlord reviews alongside the apartment details, so you can compare more than price and location. That helps you spot patterns in maintenance, responsiveness, and move-in experience before you commit.
