House Hunting on a Brooklyn Nets’ Budget

Ditmas Park Corner

...wants to set the record straight on the Nets' Deron Williams's mistaken belief that one can't find a place with four bedrooms in Brooklyn.

As neighbor Gordon Rothman, who pointed us to this story, says, “Someone needs to give him a tour.”

In July, Williams signed a five-year contract with the Nets worth almost $100 million. For less than 2% of that, his family could be sitting very comfortably in a completely renovated standalone house in the Ditmas Park area. We’re only about four miles from the stadium, and the traffic will probably be better than coming in from Manhattan (though it’ll still be quicker to take the subway–Atlantic is just seven stops from Cortelyou on the Q).
