Hasbro invites votes for new Monopoly landmarks

Hasbro Inc., the Pawtucket-based toymaker, is planning to release an updated version of its popular Monopoly board game this fall.

But instead of Boardwalk and Park Place, the game could feature national landmarks such as Fenway Park, Times Square and the Golden Gate Bridge.

The toymaker is giving people a chance to vote online for their favorite sites on its Web site for another two weeks. The top vote getters will earn a place on Hasbro's "Monopoly Here and Now" game board.

Voters can choose from 66 locations in 22 cities, including Boston, New York, Honolulu, Las Vegas, Denver, New Orleans and San Francisco.

Missing from the list -- any landmarks in Hasbro's home state, Rhode Island.
