Good cause buildings near the 4 train in NYC

“Good cause” is a tenant-protection filter for buildings where specific limits apply to certain rent increases and non-renewals. Use the building page details to understand how it applies to the building you’re considering.

This page groups eligible buildings by proximity to the 4 train corridor. Check the exact address and your typical walking/subway transfer plan on each building page.

Not always. “Good cause” and “rent-stabilized” are separate regulatory categories. Confirm the building’s filter tags and details on the specific building page before you apply.

No. Building eligibility and unit circumstances can affect what protections apply in practice. Read the building notes carefully and ask the management office for the exact renewal and rent-increase terms for the specific unit.

Even with tenant protections, you’ll still want to verify the full monthly cost and move-in terms: deposit, any broker fee, utilities responsibility, and any recurring building charges. Don’t rely on asking rent alone.

Confirm lease start date options, required documentation/guarantor rules, and move-in logistics (turnaround time, paperwork timeline, and any fees). Use tenant Q&A on the building page to target questions.

They’re useful for comparing buildings quickly, but conditions can change. Treat reviews and open-data signals as prompts—then confirm key details directly with the building for the unit you’re considering.
