Hi Neighbours,
The meandering Avon River could be all yours, ducks and all. Or you could earn your fortune building a row of hotels on Hagley Park. Perhaps you’d rather take a chance at the casino, or buy up Christchurch Airport so you can park for free.

Read the full story by reporter Liz McDonald here (subscription required) and tell us in the comments below if you agree with the Christchurch picks or what places you'd prefer to see on the board.
