This is the first episode from Jay-Z‘s Life + Time’s “Road to Brooklyn” series; taking a look at how the Barclays Center arena and new home of the Brooklyn Nets arena came to become a fixture in the borough.

The interesting thing about the video is that it actually shows Brooklyn residents who are for and against the development of the arena. So it shows both sides of the story, rather than just glorify the development, which it could have easily done.
