2
2 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 $50,292 a year off the tax roll. Read the tax figures with that in mind.

5300 N 15th St is assessed at $210K but pays $1,176 a year — about 40% of the $2,942 it would owe at the statutory rate, because its new-construction value is abated.
