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 $56,125 a year off the tax roll. Read the tax figures with that in mind.

6866-70 N 7th St is assessed at $2.0M but pays $1,807 a year — about 6% of the $28,536 it would owe at the statutory rate, because its new-construction value is abated.
