If townhouse prices in Fort Greene are down 50 percent, then someone forgot to send us the memo. Which is why the recent sale of 99 Lafayette Avenue for $850,000 caught our attention. You see, this four-story building changed hands for $1,700,000 as recently as July 2007. It also traded in 2005 for $975,000 and in 2006 for $1,050,000. A lot of activity for one house. Odd, isn’t it?
