The NYC Department of Finance's 2026/27 assessment roll lists 32 COURT ST ASSOCIATES LLC as the owner of record of 32 Court Street (BBL 3002550044).

32 Court Street reported an ENERGY STAR score of 85 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 85 earns an A. 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 65.2 kBtu per square foot, 44% below the national median of 116 for a similar property. Its greenhouse gas emissions were about 537 metric tons of CO2e (4.88 kg per square foot).

At its 2024 energy use, 32 Court Street comes to about 462 metric tons of CO2e a year under Local Law 97's coefficients, against a limit of 834 tons for 2024 to 2029 (55% of the limit), so it would owe no penalty. From 2030 the limit drops to 296 tons and the same energy use counts as about 357 tons, about 61 tons over, or an estimated $16,000 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.
