28
28 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 $41,994 a year off the tax roll. Read the tax figures with that in mind.

4404 N 7th St is assessed at $121K but pays $287 a year — about 17% of the $1,687 it would owe at the statutory rate, because its new-construction value is abated.
