The NYC Department of Finance's 2026/27 assessment roll lists FIFTH CITY REALTY LLC as the owner of record of 529 Fifth Avenue (BBL 1012780069). 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.

Leasemark does not have the building's tenant roster, but SEC filings name companies with offices at 529 Fifth Avenue. One investment manager files 13F holdings reports from the address: ARS Investment Partners, 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.

529 Fifth Avenue last sold in June 2023 for $107.6 million, according to the deed recorded with the city. 529 FIFTH COMPANY HOLDINGS LLC sold it to EMPIRE 529 FIFTH LLC and FIFTH CITY REALTY LLC. That comes to about $397 per square foot of floor area. The deed is ACRIS document 2023062201230001 (BBL 1012780069) 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.

529 Fifth Avenue reported an ENERGY STAR score of 88 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 88 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 40.4 kBtu per square foot, 49% below the national median of 79.4 for a similar property. Its greenhouse gas emissions were about 1,133 metric tons of CO2e (4.18 kg per square foot).

At its 2024 energy use, 529 Fifth Avenue comes to about 823 metric tons of CO2e a year under Local Law 97's coefficients, against a limit of 2,082 tons for 2024 to 2029 (40% of the limit), so it would owe no penalty. From 2030 the limit drops to 724 tons and the same energy use counts as about 468 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.
