What does “good cause” mean on this Manhattan buildings page?

On Openigloo, “good cause” is a regulatory/tenant-protection category tied to limits around certain rent increases and non-renewals. Coverage can be unit- and lease-specific, so confirm details with the building and the lease language.

How does “near schools” work in this filter?

“Near-schools” is a location filter that focuses the building search on proximity to schools. Distances can vary by exact address, so use the building page’s map/details and check your real commute route.

Are all 15,341+ buildings in Manhattan covered by good cause?

The 15,341+ count reflects buildings that match the combined page scope and filters as of 2026-07-07. Still, the practical impact of good-cause rules depends on the specific unit and lease terms—verify with management.

What should I verify before applying or signing a lease?

Confirm coverage and renewal expectations tied to the good-cause category, verify the school-distance criteria for your daily route, and confirm the full monthly cost and move-in requirements listed for the exact unit.

Will tenant Q&A and reviews reflect current conditions?
