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, 1185 Avenue of the Americas comes to about 5,813 metric tons of CO2e a year under Local Law 97's coefficients, against a limit of 8,474 tons for 2024 to 2029 (69% of the limit), so it would owe no penalty. From 2030 the limit drops to 3,194 tons and the same energy use counts as about 3,800 tons, about 606 tons over, or an estimated $162,000 a year unless the building cuts its emissions.
