MANCHESTER, N.H. (WBZ NewsRadio) — A special edition of Monopoly is coming to Manchester, New Hampshire, and the public is being asked to help design the board.
Game maker Top Trumps USA is developing a version of the classic board game featuring the Queen City. The company will select about two dozen local sites to put on the board, including landmarks, parks, cultural spots, businesses, restaurants, and nonprofits. Residents can submit their own ideas through the end of May on their website.
Residents have suggested a multitude of options, including SNHU Arena, Liberty Square Park, Arms Motorcycle, and Consuelos Taqueria.

"The Red Arrow diner. I think that'd be a good landmark. It's pretty unique to like New Hampshire," one local said.
"Iconic to Manchester, the Back Room was a restaurant that they have had here for a long time and Golden Rods," another local said.
The game maker plans to release the game in November, mainly in local shops and online. The company creates city-specific monopoly games across the country under a license from Hasbro. Other cities included are Boston, Philadelphia, and Austin.
