As part of CHPC’s exclusive summer site visits for board members, we organized a behind-the-scenes tour of Capsys, the premier modular manufacturer specializing in non-combustible buildings located in the Brooklyn Navy Yard.
From the Capsys website, “Capsys Corp. located in the Brooklyn Navy Yard was formed in 1996 to design and build Nehemiah II, 700 homes for the Nehemiah Housing Development Fund Company. Capsys won the prestigious “Build New York” award as well as HUD’s “Innovation in Housing” awards for its approach and execution of the Nehemiah II project. Since then it has produced over 2,000,000 square feet and almost 2,000 units of housing in a variety of types, from low rise to mid rise homes, multi-family and hotels.”
