Metropolitan Club's ENERGY STAR score of 56 compares with an average of 50 across the 853 that report a score; it scores higher than 57% of them and lower than 42%. Its site EUI of 133.9 kBtu/ft² is about 42% above the average of 94.3 kBtu/ft² — it uses more energy per square foot than the typical building in that group. Its emissions intensity of 9.4 kgCO₂e/ft² is about 21% above the group average of 7.8 kgCO₂e/ft².
At 115,046 sq ft, it is about 16% below the average floor area of 137,256 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1870, 105 years earlier than the group's average year built (1975). Across all 24 jurisdictions BuildingCensus covers, the 3,812 hotel buildings average an ENERGY STAR score of 65 and a site EUI of 77.8 kBtu/ft².
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 56 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 56 means the building performs better than about 56% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 56 falls in band C — below median (55–69). It sits 19 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. Metropolitan Club's 133.9 kBtu/ft² across 115,046 sq ft works out to about 15.4 billion Btu (4,515 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. Its source EUI of 205.5 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 1,252,116 kWh of electricity and 111,270 therms of natural gas for the year.
Which law requires Metropolitan Club to report its energy use?
