What does “good cause” mean on this building page?

It’s a tenant-protection category that focuses on limits for certain rent increases and non-renewals. The page narrows results to buildings/units where those protections are relevant, but you should confirm the unit-specific applicability.

How does the “near the R train” part work?

It’s a location filter that ties building results to the Midtown area by proximity to the R train. Use the exact address on the listing to confirm commute time and the best entrance routes.

Are these protections guaranteed once I apply?

The page helps you find buildings in the right regulatory category, but protections depend on the unit and the lease. Before signing, ask management to walk you through renewal and increase provisions in writing.

What should I ask about before touring or applying?

Ask how renewals work, how and when rent changes are decided for your specific unit, what documentation is required, and whether there are any building fees not included in the advertised rent.
