Energy use and emissions
97 Boerum Place'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 greenhouse gas emissions were about 249 metric tons of CO2e (5.11 kg per square foot).

Local Law 97 emissions limit
At its 2024 energy use, 97 Boerum Place comes to about 183 metric tons of CO2e a year under Local Law 97's coefficients, against a limit of 575 tons for 2024 to 2029 (32% of the limit), so it would owe no penalty. From 2030 the limit drops to 66 tons and the same energy use counts as about 92 tons, about 25 tons over, or an estimated $6,800 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: Strip Mall 48,720 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.
