5
5 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 $42,278 a year off the tax roll. Read the tax figures with that in mind.

4041 Spring Garden St is assessed at $413K but pays $1,306 a year — about 23% of the $5,784 it would owe at the statutory rate, because its new-construction value is abated.
