What does “good cause” mean for these buildings near the 3 train?

Do I need to live near the 3 train even if a building looks like a match on Openigloo?

Yes—treat the filter as an approximate guide. Verify the walk/transfer time to the 3 train during your commute hours, and confirm the closest station entrances from the building address.

Does “good cause” mean I will always get the same renewal terms I expect?

Not automatically. The category flags tenant-protection coverage, but renewals still depend on unit/lease details. Ask the building what changes are expected at renewal and request documentation where available.

What should I confirm before signing the lease beyond the filter?

Confirm the unit’s current lease terms, move-in requirements, and the full monthly cost picture (including deposits/fees and utility responsibility). Also ask about maintenance and building processes raised in tenant Q&A.

Is this income-restricted, subsidized, or housing-lottery housing?

No. This page is about market-rent building filters (including “good cause”), not income-restricted housing, not subsidized housing, and not NYCHA/HPD/Section 8 or a housing-lottery program.
