Its site EUI of 61.6 kBtu/ft² is roughly in line with 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 6.6 kgCO₂e/ft² is about 13% above the group average of 5.8 kgCO₂e/ft².
At 52,796 sq ft, it is about 74% below the average floor area of 205,440 sq ft for those buildings. Its 1940 construction date is close to the group's average year built (1940).

What does an ENERGY STAR score of 51 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 51 means the building performs better than about 51% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 51 falls in band D — lowest band (1–54). It sits 24 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. 36-36 Main Street's 61.6 kBtu/ft² across 52,796 sq ft works out to about 3.3 billion Btu (953 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. Its source EUI of 158.2 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 826,572 kWh of electricity and 4,322 therms of natural gas for the year.
