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 $32,503 a year off the tax roll. Read the tax figures with that in mind.

2107 S 3rd St is assessed at $288K but pays $1,453 a year — about 36% of the $4,024 it would owe at the statutory rate, because its new-construction value is abated.
