Good cause buildings near the QM16 bus in Manhattan

“Good cause” is a tenant-protection regulatory filter. It’s meant to flag buildings where tenant protections apply to certain renewal and non-renewal scenarios, but the exact outcome depends on the building and the unit’s lease history—confirm details with management.

This page is scoped to Manhattan buildings that align with the QM16 bus route area used by Openigloo’s building research tools. Still, walk the route from the specific building address to the QM16 stop you’ll use and confirm the daily commute time you expect.

No. This page is based on the good cause tenant-protection filter. It is not income-restricted housing, not subsidized, not NYCHA, not HPD, and not Section 8, and it is not a housing-lottery / affordable-housing program.

At minimum: the renewal language that applies to your unit, how rent changes are handled under your lease, all move-in costs (including fees and deposits), and any building rules that affect your household (documentation, occupancy requirements, and unit-specific conditions).

No. Good cause protections set legal guardrails for certain scenarios, but renewals can still depend on the specifics of your lease and qualifying conditions. Use Openigloo signals to shortlist, then ask the building directly about how policies are applied.

Use Openigloo as a starting point for building research (reviews, ratings, and renter Q&A themes). For anything time-sensitive—fees, building policies, repairs, and availability—confirm with management before paying any money or signing.
