CHAPTER III Taxes On Urban Real Estate In the case of city real estate it is necessary to make a distinction between the two components of the real estate tax, the ground tax and the building or house tax--the tax on the site and the tax on the structure; for they are governed by distinct principles. Strictly speaking, we should have drawn the same distinction in the case of the agricultural landowner. But in that case the distinction is unimportant, because--in America at all events--the tenant is, in almost all cases, the owner and because the value of the farmer's buildings is generally of minor importance when compared with the value of his land.
