2
2 properties on this block carry a tax abatement or major exemption. New construction and gut rehabs get the improvement value exempted for up to 10 years, so their tax bills sit far below their real value — block-wide, exemptions keep about $37,090 a year off the tax roll. Read the tax figures with that in mind.

1308 S 54th St is assessed at $239K but pays $1,764 a year — about 53% of the $3,341 it would owe at the statutory rate, because its new-construction value is abated.
