Soon you can buy the Harbour Bridge, as Sydney Monopoly board game to launch in November

A new Monopoly board featuring Sydney landmarks and streets is to be launched in November.

The public is being encouraged to nominate the city's entries via Facebook.

The first to “like” the Sydney Monopoly Facebook page was lord mayor Clover Moore, who nominated King Street, Newtown, Glebe Point Road and Oxford Street as her suggestions. The lord mayor said a global city like Sydney deserved to be immortalised in the world’s most famous game.

“I’d encourage everyone to have their say about which Sydney streets should replace those famous London names like Fleet Street and Pall Mall.”

Woollahra mayor Susan Wynne wants Queens Street, Woollahra.

“I love Monopoly, and I think it’s fantastic that it going to be updated with a local feel,” she told the Wentworth Courier.

“Wolseley Road Point Piper, without a doubt, has to take the position of Mayfair,” says James McCowan from Raine & Horne Double Bay.

Even the Swans AFL could get a guernsey on the board.

The naming continues until Sunday, June 24, to nominate a location via the Sydney Monopoly Facebook page or email Winning Moves, which is the manufacturers of the official Monopoly Sydney version, under licence from Hasbro.
