15
15 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 $42,985 a year off the tax roll. Read the tax figures with that in mind.

2046 S 57th St is assessed at $206K but pays $1,075 a year — about 37% of the $2,877 it would owe at the statutory rate, because its new-construction value is abated.
