How to find who owns any NYC building

Source: NYC Department of Finance, Property Valuation and Assessment Data (2026/27 roll; owner names as the roll records them, which cuts some long names short), pulled 2026-10-16; tax rate from the Department of Finance tax rates page, checked 2026-09-28. The estimate is the taxable value times the class rate. It leaves out abatements, payment-in-lieu-of-taxes agreements and charges, so the actual bill can differ.

Local Law 97 of 2019, estimated

Local Law 97 emissions limit

At its 2024 energy use, the Americas Tower comes to about 3,917 metric tons of CO2e a year under Local Law 97's coefficients, against a limit of 7,564 tons for 2024 to 2029 (52% of the limit), so it would owe no penalty. From 2030 the limit drops to 2,685 tons and the same energy use counts as about 2,179 tons, still under the limit.

It is not the building's Local Law 97 report: that report can count renewable energy credits, solar and storage deductions and, for 2024 and 2025, the law's occupancy group limits where higher, and penalties can be reduced for good faith efforts.

Walking times are straight-line estimates; the street route is longer.

Who owns the Americas Tower?

The NYC Department of Finance's 2026/27 assessment roll lists 1177 PROPERTY LLC as the owner of record of the Americas Tower (BBL 1009980029). Big buildings are usually held through a company set up for that one property, so the name on the roll can differ from the landlord's brand or the managing agent. Deeds and mortgages for the lot are public in ACRIS, the city's property records system.

Who are the tenants at the Americas Tower?

Leasemark does not have the building's tenant roster, but SEC filings name companies with offices at the Americas Tower. One public company reports the address as its principal executive office: PARANOVUS ENTERTAINMENT TECHNOLOGY LTD. (PAVS). 3 investment managers and funds file 13F holdings reports from the address: Gates Capital Management, Inc.; YMCA RETIREMENT FUND; and Gates Capital Management, L.P..

When was the Americas Tower last sold?

The Americas Tower last sold in September 2025 for $572.3 million, according to the deed recorded with the city. 1177 AVENUE OF THE AMERICAS ACQUISITION LLC sold it to 1177 PROPERTY LLC. That comes to about $627 per square foot of floor area. The deed is ACRIS document 2025101000119001 (BBL 1009980029) in the city's property records. A sale of the company that owns a building is not recorded as a deed, so it would not show there.

What is the energy grade of the Americas Tower?

The Americas Tower reported an ENERGY STAR score of 79 for calendar year 2024 in its Local Law 84 benchmarking filing. Under Local Law 33, as amended by Local Law 95 of 2019, a score of 85 or higher earns an A, 70 to 84 a B, 55 to 69 a C and under 55 a D, so 79 earns a B. The Department of Buildings assigns the grade a building posts, so the posted label can differ if a filing was corrected. Its site energy use came to 51.2 kBtu per square foot, 37% below the national median of 80.8 for a similar property. Its greenhouse gas emissions were about 5,378 metric tons of CO2e (5.39 kg per square foot).

Does the Americas Tower meet Local Law 97?

At its 2024 energy use, the Americas Tower comes to about 3,917 metric tons of CO2e a year under Local Law 97's coefficients, against a limit of 7,564 tons for 2024 to 2029 (52% of the limit), so it would owe no penalty. From 2030 the limit drops to 2,685 tons and the same energy use counts as about 2,179 tons, still under the limit. This is an estimate from the owner's 2024 benchmarking filing using the coefficients and per-use limits in the law and the Department of Buildings rule, at $268 per ton over. It is not the building's Local Law 97 report, which can count credits and deductions this estimate cannot.

Is there construction at the Americas Tower?

In the 12 months to October 2026, the Department of Buildings issued first permits for 14 jobs at the Americas Tower. In the last two years, interior work was permitted on 20 floors (floors 1, 6 to 8, 10 to 12, 15, 19, 20, 22, 31, 32, 37, 38, 40 to 43 and 48, the cellar, the concourse, the mezzanine and the sub-cellar). The newest build-out, on floors 6, 10 to 12, 15, 31, 32, 37 and 38, was first permitted in September 2026 (construction, mechanical, plumbing, sprinklers; filed cost estimate $595,000).
