Is Christchurch on the board with a new edition of Monopoly?
From reporter Liz McDonald:
Would you build houses on leafy Hagley Park, or buy Brighton Pier? How would you handle owning Christchurch’s battered wastewater plant?
Choose between the Margaret Mahy playground and the adventure park. Who wants Cathedral Square in its post-quake shabbiness? What would it cost to buy the red zone?
With just a roll of the dice, the city’s prize assets and troublesome utilities could be up for grabs – once a Christchurch edition of Monopoly hits the shelves later this year.
An Australian board game maker with the rights to make Monopoly in Australasia has turned its focus to the city for the first time. And now it wants to hear what Christchurch people want to see on the board.
People can have their say now on the upcoming Christchurch edition of Monopoly on a special Facebook page or by emailing info@winningmoves.com.au
