How to find who owns any NYC building

Source: NYC Department of Finance, Property Valuation and Assessment Data (2026/27 roll; owner names as the roll records them, which cuts some long names short), pulled 2026-10-16; tax rate from the Department of Finance tax rates page, checked 2026-09-28. 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.

NYC energy benchmarking (Local Law 84)

Its site energy use came to 107 kBtu per square foot, 2.4 times the national median of 44.9 for a similar property. Its greenhouse gas emissions were about 7,400 metric tons of CO2e (11.51 kg per square foot).

Local Law 97 emissions limit

At its 2024 energy use, 85 Tenth Avenue comes to about 5,561 metric tons of CO2e a year under Local Law 97's coefficients, against a limit of 6,979 tons for 2024 to 2029 (80% of the limit), so it would owe no penalty. From 2030 the limit drops to 3,224 tons and the same energy use counts as about 3,008 tons, still under the limit.

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.

From 2030 the limit drops to 3,224 tons and the same energy use counts as about 3,008 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.
