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.

1281 Viele Avenue last sold in August 2019 for $13 million, according to the deed recorded with the city. 1281 VIELE AVE. CO., LLC sold it to 1281 VIELE LLC.

A sale of the company that owns a building is not recorded as a deed, so it would not show there.

1281 Viele Avenue reported an ENERGY STAR score of 84 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 84 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 8 kBtu per square foot, less than half the national median of 17.7 for a similar property. Its greenhouse gas emissions were about 36.9 metric tons of CO2e (0.92 kg per square foot).

At its 2024 energy use, 1281 Viele Avenue comes to about 27 metric tons of CO2e a year under Local Law 97's coefficients, against a limit of 230 tons for 2024 to 2029 (12% of the limit), so it would owe no penalty. From 2030 the limit drops to 40 tons and the same energy use counts as about 14 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.
