Apartments in good cause buildings for rent near landmarks in South Harlem, Manhattan

It shows 18+ apartments for rent near landmarks in South Harlem, Manhattan, limited to good cause buildings. The median rent on this page is $4,079.

Good cause is a tenant-protection category. It can affect certain rent increases and non-renewals, but it is not a neighborhood and it does not guarantee any specific lease terms on its own.

Start with the median rent of $4,079, then check whether the asking rent, fees, security deposit, and utilities fit your total monthly budget. The rent is only one part of the move-in cost.

Confirm the building’s good cause status, the lease length, renewal terms, application fees, move-in charges, and any rules that could affect your renewal or occupancy.

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

Openigloo uses the building’s good cause status as the filter. That status sits alongside the asking rent and other lease details, so you should still review the full terms before you apply.

Apartments closer to landmarks, in newer buildings, or with more amenities often cost more. Lease terms, broker fees, deposits, and utility costs can also change what feels affordable even when the asking rent looks manageable.
