That comes to about $486 per square foot of floor area. The deed is ACRIS document 2024022200499001 (BBL 3067330040) 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.

1296 East 14th Street's 2024 Local Law 84 benchmarking filing got no ENERGY STAR score (no single use that ENERGY STAR scores covers more than half of the floor area), and Local Law 33 letter grades come from that score, so the filing does not yield an A to D grade. Its site energy use came to 9.1 kBtu per square foot, less than half the national median of 21.2 for a similar property. Its greenhouse gas emissions were about 76.4 metric tons of CO2e (0.87 kg per square foot).

At its 2024 energy use, 1296 East 14th Street comes to about 60 metric tons of CO2e a year under Local Law 97's coefficients, against a limit of 373 tons for 2024 to 2029 (16% of the limit), so it would owe no penalty. From 2030 the limit drops to 54 tons and the same energy use counts as about 36 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.
