Beyonce & Jay-Z Break Ground in Brooklyn

Beyonce comes out to support her husband Jay-Z at the ceremonial groundbreaking for Barclays Center — the new arena for the New Jersey Nets — at Atlantic Yards on Thursday (March 11) in New York City’s Brooklyn.

“What I stand here and represent is hope for Brooklyn, New York City. I’m a son of Brooklyn, I’m from Marcy projects.” Jay said. “I think about growing up in Brooklyn in the Marcy projects and shooting jump shots, thinking I can make it to the NBA. Now I stand here as an owner of [the Nets] that’s coming back to Brooklyn. The pride in that, and bringing that dream so much closer for people, brings me so much pride I get a little nervous about it. But I’m very happy, very excited about this day. And we did it again Brooklyn – shout out to [Notorious] B.I.G.”
