MONOPOLY: Birmingham Edition Unveiled

birminghamal.gov  On Friday, local officials and business leaders, along with Mr. Monopoly, proudly unveiled the official MONOPOLY: Birmingham Edition board at the iconic Vulcan Park & Museum overlooking the Birmingham skyline. This game is the only MONOPOLY version based in the state and is produced by Top Trumps USA, the American division of Winning Moves International, creators of classic games and puzzles, and under license by Hasbro, a leading toy and game company. MONOPOLY: Birmingham Edition replaces the classic board game’s famous Atlantic City squares (from ‘Boardwalk’ to ‘Park Place’) with Birmingham cultural sites, historic landmarks, charitable organizations, and businesses. It features customized Community Chest and Chance playing cards to ensure the board is a historic and enduring tribute to all the wonderful places and sights that make up the city of Birmingham. To guarantee this special edition MONOPOLY board game captured the Magic City’s most beloved spots, Top Trumps USA asked the Birmingham public last June for suggestions of who should have permanent squares on the board, and they listened! See below for the full list of board spaces: • Rotary Trail • Greater Birmingham Humane Society • Legacy Community Federal Credit Union • Boutwell Auditorium • Heaviest Corner...
