Though they haven't made it very far on construction, the green, modular townhouses in Bed Stuy known as Nzinga and designed by Brooklyn local Garrison Architects has been seeing some price reductions. They started on the market earlier this year for $1.3 million (when we first looked at them), received a chop to $1.2 million three months ago, and are now listed at $1.099 million. The houses, if you don't mind buying on spec, seem pretty cool, and would be a model for future modular projects if they succeed: 2,900-square-foot houses with highly efficient heating, insulation and lighting systems, among other perks. Listed with Corcoran, and the floor plan's on the jump. Both Curbed and Greenbuildings NYC profiled the houses this week, reporting that construction financing had been secured and that the project should break ground in 2009. One catch: Two of the three houses have to be in contract first (one already is).
