Pet-friendly studio apartments in good cause buildings for rent near M116 West Side - East Harlem in Upper West Side, Manhattan

This page shows 22+ pet-friendly studio apartments in good cause buildings near M116 West Side - East Harlem in Upper West Side, Manhattan. It is meant for renters who want to filter by unit type, pet policy, and tenant-protection status in one place.

Good cause is a tenant-protection category, not a neighborhood or building quality label. It generally refers to buildings where certain rent increases or non-renewals may be limited under applicable rules, so you should still review the lease and ask how the protection applies to the unit.

No. Pet-friendly means pets are allowed in the building or unit under some conditions, but rules can still include fees, breed limits, weight limits, pet counts, or documentation requirements. Confirm the exact policy with the agent before applying.

No. Good cause and pet-friendly filters do not mean the apartment is income-restricted, subsidized, housing-lottery housing, NYCHA, HPD, or Section 8. They describe building protections and pet rules, not an official affordable-housing program.

This page does not use the affordable filter. If you are looking at Openigloo affordable pages, the threshold is market-relative: asking rents at or below the 25th percentile of gross rents for that page's scope, not a government housing program.

For a studio, make sure the sleeping area, kitchen setup, storage, and single bathroom work for your daily routine. Also check the full monthly cost, including utilities, broker fees, deposits, and any pet charges, because those can change the real budget.

Openigloo building reviews can help you spot patterns around maintenance, management response, noise, and move-in experience. That is especially useful when you are comparing 22+ apartments for rent with similar asking rents and pet rules.
