City assets for sale at a roll of the dice

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from The Press

Hi Neighbours,
The meandering Avon River could be all yours, ducks and all. Or you could earn your fortune building a row of hotels on Hagley Park. Perhaps you’d rather take a chance at the casino, or buy up Christchurch Airport so you can park for free.

But this is not any asset sell-up the city council might be considering.
This is just for fun.

The well-known Christchurch spots are among those displayed on the city's very own colourful version of Monopoly, launched on Wednesday, in plenty of time for Christmas shopping.

Read the full story by reporter Liz McDonald here (subscription required) and tell us in the comments below if you agree with the Christchurch picks or what places you'd prefer to see on the board.
