Kris Humphries -- Check Out My $8,000 A Month NYC Pad

The Nets have moved from New Jersey to New York and now Kris Humphries is doing the same and moving into a swanky new Manhattan apartment ... for a whopping $8,000 A MONTH!!!!

Sources close to Kris tell TMZ he is renting a 1,277 square-foot luxury pad in the über expensive Battery Park neighborhood of Manhattan ... which is setting him back a cool $8,140 a month.

Kris can sure afford it, having just inked a two-year deal with the Nets this summer worth $24 mil. In fact, we're told the reason he's moving is to be closer to the city and his team -- which is now in Brooklyn.

The new 2-bedroom, 2-bath crib is RIDICULOUSLY NICE -- top of the line appliances, bamboo floors, panoramic NYC views, a 24-hour concierege service, billiards room, private gym, rooftop deck and rooftop pool.
