La Brea Ave.'s ENERGY STAR score of 97 compares with an average of 82 across the 9,612 that report a score; it scores higher than 63% of them and lower than 34%. Its site EUI of 21.9 kBtu/ft² is about 36% below the average of 34.4 kBtu/ft² — it uses less energy per square foot than the typical building in that group. Its emissions intensity of 1.3 kgCO₂e/ft² is about 38% below the group average of 2.1 kgCO₂e/ft².
At 26,606 sq ft, it is about 82% below the average floor area of 150,919 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1950, 38 years earlier than the group's average year built (1988).

What does an ENERGY STAR score of 97 mean?
ENERGY STAR scores run from 1 to 100 and are computed by the EPA's Portfolio Manager as a percentile against similar buildings nationwide, adjusted for climate, size and use: a score of 97 means the building performs better than about 97% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 97 falls in band A — high performer (85–100). Scores of 75 or higher meet the threshold for ENERGY STAR certification; certification itself is a separate, verified application that the disclosure does not record. In California, 65% of scored buildings are at 75 or above.
Site energy-use intensity (EUI) is the energy a building uses on site in a year divided by its floor area, in thousand Btu per square foot — lower is more efficient. 3471 S. La Brea Ave.'s 21.9 kBtu/ft² across 26,606 sq ft works out to about 0.6 billion Btu (171 MWh-equivalent) in 2019. The disclosure also reports 53,612 kWh of electricity and 3,966 therms of natural gas for the year.
