The estimate is the taxable value times the class rate. It leaves out abatements, payment-in-lieu-of-taxes agreements and charges, so the actual bill can differ.

Local Law 97 emissions limit
At its 2024 energy use, One Worldwide Plaza comes to about 9,710 metric tons of CO2e a year under Local Law 97's coefficients, against a limit of 12,277 tons for 2024 to 2029 (79% of the limit), so it would owe no penalty. From 2030 the limit drops to 4,501 tons and the same energy use counts as about 5,595 tons, about 1,094 tons over, or an estimated $293,000 a year unless the building cuts its emissions.

Estimated from the owner's 2024 Local Law 84 filing, which reports energy by source and floor area by use: Food Sales 48,614 SF; Office 1,497,669 SF; Data Center 14,728 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.

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.
