Good cause buildings near the M125 bus in Morningside Heights

“Good cause” is a tenant-protection regulatory category used to filter buildings where certain rent-increase and non-renewal circumstances are constrained. It affects what landlords can do in specific situations, but it does not replace reading your lease and renewal paperwork carefully.

It’s a location filter that groups buildings by proximity to the M125 bus route. Use it to shortlist for transit convenience, then confirm the closest stop, walking time, and service frequency for your typical schedule.

No. This page is about eligible buildings under the filters. Availability can change by unit type and timing, so verify current openings through Openigloo for each building you’re considering.

Yes. Even if a building matches the filters, costs beyond the base rent (for example, deposits, broker-related fees where applicable, and utility arrangements) can still vary. Ask for a clear breakdown in writing before you sign.

Use ratings from rated buildings as one input for narrowing options. Then confirm the on-the-ground details with the building directly, since conditions and policies can vary by unit and by time.

East Village with 11,857+ buildings; Hell's Kitchen with 6,943+ buildings; Yorkville with 9,328+ buildings; Lenox Hill with 8,357+ buildings; Kips Bay with 4,472+ buildings.

Ask how renewals are handled in practice, how rent changes would be documented, and what notices or timelines they follow. Get specifics that match the lease you’re being offered, not just the general regulatory category.
