10
10 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 $81,946 a year off the tax roll. Read the tax figures with that in mind.

2000-16 N 15th St is assessed at $2.1M but pays $0 a year — about 0% of the $29,120 it would owe at the statutory rate, because its new-construction value is abated.
