Its site EUI of 3.0 kBtu/ft² is about 95% below the average of 58.8 kBtu/ft² — it uses less energy per square foot than the typical building in that group. Its emissions intensity of 0.3 kgCO₂e/ft² is about 92% below the group average of 4.4 kgCO₂e/ft².
At 35,910 sq ft, it is roughly in line with the average floor area of 38,537 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1941, 9 years earlier than the group's average year built (1950). Across all 24 jurisdictions BuildingCensus covers, the 52 bank branch buildings average an ENERGY STAR score of 85 and a site EUI of 43.0 kBtu/ft².
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 100 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: 100 is the top of the scale. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 100 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 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. 4259 Broadway's 3.0 kBtu/ft² across 35,910 sq ft works out to about 0.1 billion Btu (32 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. Its source EUI of 8.5 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 31,863 kWh of electricity for the year.
Which law requires 4259 Broadway to report its energy use?
