The NYC Department of Finance's 2026/27 assessment roll lists KPG 480 BROADWAY OWNER LLC as the owner of record of 478 Broadway (BBL 1004730010). 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.

478 Broadway reported an ENERGY STAR score of 51 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 51 earns a D. 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 83.8 kBtu per square foot, about the same as the national median of 85 for a similar property. Its greenhouse gas emissions were about 367 metric tons of CO2e (6.66 kg per square foot).

At its 2024 energy use, 478 Broadway comes to about 348 metric tons of CO2e a year under Local Law 97's coefficients, against a limit of 417 tons for 2024 to 2029 (83% of the limit), so it would owe no penalty. From 2030 the limit drops to 148 tons and the same energy use counts as about 323 tons, about 175 tons over, or an estimated $47,000 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.
