New York City is planning on reducing the Empire State Building's energy consumption by 38% a year by 2013. Mayor Bloomberg's PlanNYC 2030 is a rather intensive plan to make New York City energy efficient. Some more information about this plan can be found at this site: http://www.nyc.gov/html/planyc2030/html/home/home.shtml.
Other buildings are going green as well. The reports about the new BofA green building in NYC caught some press earlier this year: http://www.metaefficient.com/architecture-and-building/update-bank-of-america-tower-greenest-skyscraper-in-us.html
In this link, http://www.greenbuildingsnyc.com/, you can find a number of different green building projects in the greater New York area.
