What does good cause mean on this page?

Good cause is a tenant-protection category, not a place name. It can limit certain rent increases or non-renewals, but you should still confirm the building’s current status and read the lease carefully.

What is the median rent here?

The median rent on this page is $4,158 for the current Manhattan studio scope.

How should I think about budgeting for a studio in Manhattan?

Studio budgeting is about more than the asking rent. Compare the 20 apartments for rent with the $4,158 median rent, then check utilities, deposits, broker fees, move-in costs, and how the layout fits a sleeping area and storage.

Is this income-restricted, subsidized, or housing-lottery housing?

No. Good cause is a market and tenant-protection filter, not an official affordable-housing program. It does not mean income-restricted, subsidized, NYCHA, HPD, Section 8, or housing-lottery housing.

What should I confirm before applying to a good cause building?

Confirm whether the building is currently covered, ask about rent increases, renewal terms, any fees, and whether there are broker, deposit, or move-in charges that change the true monthly cost.
