Barclay Center Owner Has No Desire to Buy Brooklyn Real Estate

Posted by: AuthorKerri | DateMonday, April 16, 2012 at 2:00PM

Photo via www.ibtimes.comThough Russian billionaire Mikhail Prokhorov paid $1 BILLION for the Barclay Center, the 58th wealthiest man in the world has no desire to drop some chump change on a Brooklyn pad for days when he visits the borough for Nets games and Jay-Z concerts.

“I’m a rich Russian who would drive up the prices,” Prokhorov told the Brooklyn Paper.  “It’s not the best time to buy for me.”

I guess he'll just land his private jet in Prospect Park and use high-speed rocket packs to shuttle his ass to and from the stadium.
