The 2025 filing was due June 1, 2026, so a storefront vacant then may have been leased since.

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, 250 West 57th Street comes to about 2,204 metric tons of CO2e a year under Local Law 97's coefficients, against a limit of 3,721 tons for 2024 to 2029 (59% of the limit), so it would owe no penalty. From 2030 the limit drops to 1,274 tons and the same energy use counts as about 1,374 tons, about 100 tons over, or an estimated $27,000 a year unless the building cuts its emissions.

The lot is in the C5-3 zoning district. PLUTO lists a built floor area ratio (FAR) of 19.74 and a maximum commercial FAR of 15 for this lot.

What subway station is closest to 250 West 57th Street?

The MTA lists it as an accessible station. Also nearby: 57 St-7 Av (the N, Q, R and W trains), 3 min walk; 7 Av (the B, D and E trains), 5 min walk. Walking times are straight-line estimates; the street route is longer.

Who owns 250 West 57th Street?

The NYC Department of Finance's 2026/27 assessment roll lists EAST 250 WEST 57TH ST LLC as the owner of record of 250 West 57th Street (BBL 1010280056). 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 250 West 57th Street?

Leasemark does not have the building's tenant roster, but SEC filings name companies with offices at 250 West 57th Street. One public company reports the address as its principal executive office: INSPIRED ENTERTAINMENT, INC. (INSE). One investment manager files 13F holdings reports from the address: SPX Capital Management LLC. Private companies do not file with the SEC, so the full list of tenants is longer, and a company can also report a building it owns.

When was 250 West 57th Street last sold?

250 West 57th Street last sold in June 2026 for $275 million, according to the deed recorded with the city. ESRT 250 WEST 57TH ST., L.L.C. sold it to FIFTY SEVENTH 8TH REALTY LLC. That comes to about $631 per square foot of floor area. The deed is ACRIS document 2026060500875001 (BBL 1010280056) 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 250 West 57th Street?

250 West 57th Street reported an ENERGY STAR score of 77 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 77 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 62.2 kBtu per square foot, 32% below the national median of 91.9 for a similar property. Its greenhouse gas emissions were about 2,802 metric tons of CO2e (5.85 kg per square foot).

Does 250 West 57th Street meet Local Law 97?

At its 2024 energy use, 250 West 57th Street comes to about 2,204 metric tons of CO2e a year under Local Law 97's coefficients, against a limit of 3,721 tons for 2024 to 2029 (59% of the limit), so it would owe no penalty. From 2030 the limit drops to 1,274 tons and the same energy use counts as about 1,374 tons, about 100 tons over, or an estimated $27,000 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.

Is there construction at 250 West 57th Street?

In the 12 months to October 2026, the Department of Buildings issued first permits for 7 jobs at 250 West 57th Street. In the last two years, interior work was permitted on 8 floors (floors 1, 2, 7, 12 to 14, 20 and 25 and the cellar).

A sidewalk shed permit here is active until January 11, 2027. These are the Department of Buildings' DOB NOW work permits for tax lot 1010280056. A permit is approval to do the work; it does not say who the work is for or whether it is finished.
