Competition: Win a Greenwich Monopoly Set

We’ve come up with a fantastic competition to take us into 2009 which gives you the chance to win a custom made Greenwich version of the popular board game, Monopoly. Every square on the board will be replaced with a street name or location in Greenwich to create a truly special prize that you won’t find anywhere else.

This version of Monopoly doesn’t exist yet – we’re going to make it. And that’s where you come in. Over the next few weeks, we will be posting up squares from the traditional Monopoly board and asking you to come up with the best Greenwich equivalent. We will select the best equivalent from the entries, and the person or persons who suggested that equivalent will be entered into a prize draw. We will be deciding one square at a time and will update this post with links to the squares that have already been decided and the current one we are accepting entries on.

You don’t have to have a unique entry. If you agree with an entry already made, you can also post the same thing. In fact, a consensus will help make the decision!

Once we have selected Greenwich equivalents for every square on the board, we will pick a winner out of the hat and they will receive the custom made Monopoly set. The Monopoly will be made in the official UK factory for Monopoly and comes in a very special presentation tin.

We will get the ball (or dice?) rolling this Monday when we ask you to think of the Greenwich equivalent of Mayfair. Entrants are restricted to one entry for each “square”.

We are currently deciding:

All squares have now been decided. The draw will take place soon.
