Grand Rapids Monopoly Officially Unveiled: See All Locations Here

Monopoly is the world's most popular board game, with over 300 different versions of the game in existence. While the game set in Atlantic City is the most well-known edition of the game, Hasbro isn't a stranger to making versions of the game for pretty much everything you could think of.

These range from pop culture-inspired versions, such as Pokémon and Star Wars, to various real-world locations like London and Detroit, as well as the wildly popular Monopoly GO! mobile game.

Now, Michigan has two cities with their own official Monopoly versions, following the formal unveiling of Monopoly: Grand Rapids Edition today at John Ball Zoo. Let's see what the "Boardwalk" of Grand Rapids is.

Monopoly: Grand Rapids Edition

Last year, Top Trumps USA Inc. reached out to the community to give recommendations for "iconic cultural sites, historic landmarks, charitable organizations, and businesses" to feature in an officially licensed Grand Rapids-centric version of Monopoly. Now, a year later, the game and its locations were revealed and are now available for purchase.

From the railroad stations to the Community Chest and Chance cards, even to the "Craft Beer Tax" replacing the Luxury Tax, everything about the game has been catered to honor Beer City USA. Typically, "Boardwalk" is the most prized piece on the board, but in this version, players will rush to purchase The Blue Bridge. 

Here are all the spaces in the GR edition:
