NYC energy benchmarking (Local Law 84)
Energy use and emissions
575 Degraw Street's 2024 Local Law 84 benchmarking filing got no ENERGY STAR score (no single use that ENERGY STAR scores covers more than half of the floor area), and Local Law 33 letter grades come from that score, so the filing does not yield an A to D grade. Its site energy use came to 71.1 kBtu per square foot, 21% above the national median of 58.6 for a similar property. Its greenhouse gas emissions were about 236 metric tons of CO2e (5.95 kg per square foot).

Estimated from the owner's 2024 Local Law 84 filing, which reports energy by source and floor area by use: Fitness Center/Health Club/Gym 39,700 SF. It applies the coefficients and per-use limits in Department of Buildings rule 1 RCNY 103-14 and Administrative Code 28-320.3.1.1 (as the Department lists them) and the $268 per ton penalty, checked 2026-10-04. 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.
Change these numbers in the Local Law 97 calculator to see what a cut in energy use would do to the penalty.
