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 $14,637 a year off the tax roll. Read the tax figures with that in mind.

5709 Baltimore Ave is assessed at $305K but pays $1,640 a year — about 38% of the $4,264 it would owe at the statutory rate, because its new-construction value is abated.
