The NYC Department of Finance's 2026/27 assessment roll lists ARYEH REALTY LLC as the owner of record of 901 Essex Street (BBL 3043850020). 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.

901 Essex Street last sold in April 2017 for $5.35 million, according to the deed recorded with the city. 909 SPRING CREEK LLC sold it to I.S.R. MANAGEMENT LLC and RAYMOND L LIEBMAN ESQ CPA AS EXCHANGE ACCOMODATING. That comes to about $145 per square foot of floor area. The deed is ACRIS document 2017042800148001 (BBL 3043850020) 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.

901 Essex 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 44.9 kBtu per square foot. Its greenhouse gas emissions were about 113 metric tons of CO2e (3.05 kg per square foot).

At its 2024 energy use, 901 Essex Street comes to about 101 metric tons of CO2e a year under Local Law 97's coefficients, against a limit of 280 tons for 2024 to 2029 (36% of the limit), so it would owe no penalty. From 2030 the limit drops to 52 tons and the same energy use counts as about 84 tons, about 32 tons over, or an estimated $8,500 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.
