Monopoly. It seems like a wonderful idea when it is first brought out of
storage, but inevitably the game it wearily packed back into the box
with little enthusiasm. It can be plodding, tedious and argument-inducing. It is simplistic, dull and far too reliant on chance. While we know the locations on the board, what we hardly ever consider when playing the game is that it is based on an Atlantic City that no longer exists.
This week, we take a tour of the abandoned Atlantic City sites that inspired the Monopoly Board.
TTFN, Fred.
