Studio apartments in good cause buildings for rent near M4 The Cloisters - 32 St in Yorkville, Manhattan

It means the apartments are in buildings that fall under good cause tenant protections. That category can affect certain rent increases and non-renewal rules, but it does not change every part of the lease or guarantee the same terms for every unit.

There are 49+ studio apartments for rent on this page as of the latest snapshot.

The median rent is $3,300. Use that as a reference point, but check each unit’s asking rent and the full monthly cost before you apply.

Confirm the asking rent, lease length, renewal terms, any broker fee, security deposit, and whether utilities are included. Good cause protections do not remove normal move-in costs or building rules.

No. Good cause buildings on Openigloo are not the same as income-restricted, subsidized, NYCHA, HPD, or housing-lottery apartments. This page filters for tenant-protection status, not an official affordable-housing program.

It narrows the search to buildings with tenant protections that can affect certain rent increases and renewals. You still need to check the actual lease, unit condition, and building policies.

For a studio, plan around the rent plus any utilities, deposits, and fees, since all of that affects your monthly move-in budget. The median rent of $3,300 is only the asking-rent starting point.
