Here’s a rendering for a trio of green, modular townhouses planned for a plot of land in Bed Stuy across the street from Restoration Plaza. Designed by Garrison Architects, the 2,900-square-foot houses have highly efficient heating, insulation and lighting systems. They also look pretty darn good, we think. According to the listing agent, one of the three houses is already spoken for, which is impressive since a $1,300,000 price tag isn’t easy to pull off in this part of town these days. Then again, nothing like this has been done in the area as far as we know. Think they’ll be a market for this approach?

  1. Dave, admittedly no, which is why I’ve never said anything bad or good about it other than to assume it has many positive things going for it given you and certain other intelligent posters live there.

  2. 100yearsonHalsey….Certainly certifiable crazy white one here

    Yes, I’m not really interested in the neighborhood being overrun by obnoxious New Yorkers either!!!

    And I know I’ll NEVER get the hundred thousand plus back that I sunk into my moneypit brownstone after I paid top tick for the neighborhood last year.

    Those poor slobs who just bought the 404 Stuyvesant limestone are really fools!!!

    Around the corner from you on Stuyvesant Ave!!!

  3. Every Bed-Stuy related post devolves into the same theme, “Nobody should pay $X for a home in the ghetto”.

    As a 4th generation Bed-Stuy resident (spent some time living in Flatbush and PSlope after college), I can tell you that the neighborhood is not for the majority of NYers.

    Stay away. Bad investment. Do not buy here.

    Please keep the prices down for suckas like me who just bought a 4 story with all original detail around the corner from the house my great grandfather owned.

    There is no way this neighborhood will rebound. I grew up here. It is much worse than it was in the go-go crack 80’s. You could get shot just walking down the street nowadays. The few (hords)white people that have moved in are certifiably crazy.

    Just do me a favor. When I list my house for $300K less than I paid for it in a few years, be kind to me on this blog.

    Thanks Stoners
