Its site EUI of 44.9 kBtu/ft² is about 30% below the average of 64.5 kBtu/ft² — it uses less energy per square foot than the typical building in that group. Its emissions intensity of 4.8 kgCO₂e/ft² is about 17% below the group average of 5.8 kgCO₂e/ft².

At 338,900 sq ft, it is about 65% above the average floor area of 205,440 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1920, 20 years earlier than the group's average year built (1940).

What does an ENERGY STAR score of 70 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 70 means the building performs better than about 70% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 70 falls in band B — above median (70–84). It sits 5 points below 75, the threshold for ENERGY STAR certification. In New York City, 43% 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. 250 LIVINGSTON OWNER LLC's 44.9 kBtu/ft² across 338,900 sq ft works out to about 15.2 billion Btu (4,460 MWh-equivalent) in 2023. Its source EUI of 122.9 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 4,297,411 kWh of electricity and 5,626 therms of natural gas for the year.
