Boston will be a property on the new anniversary edition of Monopoly, dubbed “Monopoly: Here and Now.”
What color, you ask?
Blue?!?!
Green?!?
Please not purple…
Or light blue.
None of the above. Boston will be one of the three red properties on the new edition, which is due in stores next fall.
And (drum roll, please) Boston’s red neighbors are…
..Detroit and Milwaukee. Rock stars.
