The NYC Department of Finance's 2026/27 assessment roll lists SP HHF SUB BROOK, LLC as the owner of record of 979 Brook Avenue (BBL 2023910052). 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.

979 Brook Avenue last sold in December 2012 for $9.6 million, according to the deed recorded with the city. 979 BROOK REALTY ASSOCIATES LLC sold it to SP HHF SUB BROOK AVENUE LLC. The deed is ACRIS document 2013010701228007 (BBL 2023910052) 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.

979 Brook Avenue'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 13.4 kBtu per square foot, 46% below the national median of 24.7 for a similar property. Its greenhouse gas emissions were about 103 metric tons of CO2e (1.13 kg per square foot).

At its 2024 energy use, 979 Brook Avenue comes to about 84 metric tons of CO2e a year under Local Law 97's coefficients, against a limit of 387 tons for 2024 to 2029 (22% of the limit), so it would owe no penalty. From 2030 the limit drops to 56 tons and the same energy use counts as about 58 tons, about 2 tons over, or an estimated $700 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.
