9
9 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 $296,210 a year off the tax roll. Read the tax figures with that in mind.

2000 N 2nd St is assessed at $15M but pays $34,431 a year — about 16% of the $213,591 it would owe at the statutory rate, because its new-construction value is abated.
