Good cause buildings near landmarks in Washington Heights

It’s a tenant-protection category that flags buildings aligned with “good cause” rules. Even within the category, confirm the specific renewal and rent-increase details for your unit and lease term with the building management.

It filters for buildings located close to the landmarks used in Openigloo’s map matching for this page. Always double-check the route and distance on the building’s map panel and consider whether the walk is practical for your schedule.

This page is about the “good cause” and location filters, not income-restricted programs. It is not Housing Lottery/affordable-housing program housing, and it is not NYCHA, HPD, Section 8, or subsidized housing.

Confirm the exact rent terms, renewal language, and any conditions tied to lease continuation. Also ask about the full monthly cost beyond the asking rent (fees, utilities, and deposit requirements), plus application timelines and documentation needed.
