Good cause buildings near the D train in Midtown

“Good cause” is a tenant-protection regulatory category. It’s meant to help you find buildings where certain rent-increase and non-renewal actions are limited compared with standard cases. You’ll still want to confirm how it applies to the specific apartment and lease terms being offered.

It’s a location/commute filter within Midtown to surface buildings near the D train. Use the building page details to check the exact station access and walking route before touring.

As of 2026-07-07, there are 87+ eligible buildings in Midtown that match the D-train + good-cause filter pair.

They help you shortlist, but you should still ask targeted questions: how the building documents tenant-protection status, what renewal process looks like, and how fees/deposits are handled for the specific unit.

Ask for written clarity on renewal expectations for the lease term you’re considering, how rent changes are handled, and what documentation the building requires. Tenant Q&A can highlight past friction points, but details still vary by case.

Openigloo combines building-level review signals, patterns from tenant Q&A, and open-data signals so you can compare schools of concern (like maintenance and leasing responsiveness) without relying on a single tour experience.
