12
12 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 $140,103 a year off the tax roll. Read the tax figures with that in mind.

600-18 N 34th St is assessed at $6.9M but pays $0 a year — about 0% of the $96,469 it would owe at the statutory rate, because its new-construction value is abated.
