Per a recent report, Alex Rodriguez has bought a mansion right next to the one he once shared with his ex-fiancee JLo. If reports are true, then the former Yankee has purchased the property from Ken Griffin for $18.5 million. The property, called Casa La Bonita, is located at 14 Star Island Drive and is built on approximately 1 acre of land. The house is located right next to the 13 Star Island property that A-Rod and JLo once bought together.
