7
7 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 $28,102 a year off the tax roll. Read the tax figures with that in mind.

2638 S 6th St is assessed at $219K but pays $1,188 a year — about 39% of the $3,060 it would owe at the statutory rate, because its new-construction value is abated.
