10
10 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 $14,057 a year off the tax roll. Read the tax figures with that in mind.

6025 Summer St is assessed at $124K but pays $336 a year — about 19% of the $1,736 it would owe at the statutory rate, because its new-construction value is abated.
