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, 1740 Broadway comes to about 2,289 metric tons of CO2e a year under Local Law 97's coefficients, against a limit of 4,264 tons for 2024 to 2029 (54% of the limit), so it would owe no penalty. From 2030 the limit drops to 1,514 tons and the same energy use counts as about 1,766 tons, about 252 tons over, or an estimated $68,000 a year unless the building cuts its emissions.

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.

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.

Its site energy use came to 72.6 kBtu per square foot, 37% below the national median of 114.7 for a similar property. Its greenhouse gas emissions were about 3,247 metric tons of CO2e (5.77 kg per square foot).

From 2030 the limit drops to 1,514 tons and the same energy use counts as about 1,766 tons, about 252 tons over, or an estimated $68,000 a year unless the building cuts its emissions. 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.
