4
4 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 $21,501 a year off the tax roll. Read the tax figures with that in mind.

444-48 N 61st St is assessed at $198K but pays $760 a year — about 27% of the $2,774 it would owe at the statutory rate, because its new-construction value is abated.
