Barclays Center is a multi-purpose indoor arena in Brooklyn, New York. It sits partly on a platform over the Metropolitan Transportation Authority–owned Vanderbilt Yards rail yard at Atlantic Avenue. It is part of a proposed $4.9 billion sports arena, business and residential complex known as the Atlantic Yards.
The arena hosts the National Basketball Association’s Brooklyn Nets, along with concerts, conventions and other sporting events, competing with other facilities in the New York metropolitan area, including Madison Square Garden in Manhattan, Nassau Coliseum in Uniondale, Prudential Center in Newark, and Izod Center in East Rutherford, New Jersey. Beginning in 2015, it will also be the home of the New York Islanders of the National Hockey League. #Arena #Atlantic_Yards #Brooklyn #concerts #conventions #events #MTA #National_Hockey_League #NBA #Nets #New_York #New_York_Islanders #NHL
