The NYC Department of Finance's 2026/27 assessment roll lists PREF 7 WEST 51ST STREET LLC as the owner of record of 7 West 51st Street (BBL 1012670028). 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.

7 West 51st Street last sold in November 2010 for $31.5 million, according to the deed recorded with the city. FOP WEST END LLC and R&R ASSETS LLC sold it to PREF 7 WEST 51ST STREET LLC. That comes to about $647 per square foot of floor area. The deed is ACRIS document 2010111700127001 (BBL 1012670028) 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.

7 West 51st Street reported an ENERGY STAR score of 34 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 34 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 85.6 kBtu per square foot, 22% above the national median of 70.3 for a similar property. Its greenhouse gas emissions were about 352 metric tons of CO2e (8.04 kg per square foot).

At its 2024 energy use, 7 West 51st Street comes to about 252 metric tons of CO2e a year under Local Law 97's coefficients, against a limit of 331 tons for 2024 to 2029 (76% of the limit), so it would owe no penalty. From 2030 the limit drops to 118 tons and the same energy use counts as about 160 tons, about 42 tons over, or an estimated $11,000 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.
