1-bedroom apartments in good cause buildings for rent near M2 Washington Heights - East Village in Upper West Side, Manhattan

Good cause is a tenant-protection category on Openigloo. It helps you find apartments for rent in buildings that may fall under rules limiting certain rent increases or non-renewals, but you still need to review the lease and building details carefully.

There are 46+ 1-bedroom apartments for rent on this page. The median rent is $5,287, so budget expectations should be set around that current market level.

Ask about application fees, broker fees, deposits, renewal terms, and whether the unit is actually covered by good cause protections. Building rules and lease language still matter.

Good cause is not affordable housing, subsidized housing, or a lottery program. It is a tenant-protection filter focused on certain rental protections, while the asking rent on each apartment can still be at market rates.
