Its site EUI of 42.7 kBtu/ft² is about 24% below the average of 56.4 kBtu/ft² — it uses less energy per square foot than the typical building in that group. Its emissions intensity of 2.8 kgCO₂e/ft² is about 22% below the group average of 3.6 kgCO₂e/ft².
At 395,003 sq ft, it is about 160% above the average floor area of 151,937 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1960, 25 years earlier than the group's average year built (1985).

What does an ENERGY STAR score of 83 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 83 means the building performs better than about 83% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 83 falls in band B — above median (70–84). 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. 811 Wilshire Blvd.'s 42.7 kBtu/ft² across 395,003 sq ft works out to about 16.9 billion Btu (4,943 MWh-equivalent) in 2018. The disclosure also reports 3,472,281 kWh of electricity and 51,281 therms of natural gas for the year.
