Finding LeBron a home

The Nets plan to move to a new arena near downtown Brooklyn. Could you imagine LeBron in Flatbush? Why not? He's a native of Akron, Ohio. Blue-collar Brooklyn might appeal as it did to Michelle Williams and the late Heath Ledger, who lived in Boerum Hill, which, some claim, was known as Gowanus in its lower rent days.

On the other hand, with all his money, he'd probably prefer a more upscale part of the borough.

Halstead CEO Ramirez said that Brooklyn Heights would serve him well. "There are also incredible townhouses there," she said.

Many Heights' homes command incredible views of downtown Manhattan, and the commute to the new Nets arena would be a snap. He may be a bit shocked by the prices. In Brooklyn Heights, a 4,000-square-foot, 12-room townhouse is on the market for about $5.4 million.
