You might land on the Freedom Trail - Boston's renowned 3-mile walking tour that takes visitors past sixteen historic landmarks like Old North Church, Paul Revere's house, the Bunker Hill Monument, and the USS Constitution. A roll of the dice could take you on a shopping trip to Shreve, Crump & Low - a Boston landmark for nearly 200 years. Or you could land on the Public Garden where , in 1877, a ride on the Swan Boats was a five-cent fare.
I your token lands on the "T", welcome aboard Boston's subway, America's oldest and still one of the best. The subway opened along Boston Common in 1897 where the inaugural run in car #1752, an open-bench, four-wheeled trolley, traveled only six-tenths of a mile. Perhaps you'll land on Ye Olde Union Oyster House, America's oldest restaurant which serves the finest New England seafood exactly where Daniel Webster and other famous statesmen once dined.
Baseball, anyone? Land on the Boston Red Sox Square and root for one of the oldest professional baseball teams in the country. From the Bo Sox to the Brahmins, the history of Boston is celebrated in its music, literature, theater and art. The elegant Museum of Fine Arts, the intriguing Museum of Science, and the majestic Wang Center are each represented on the board as just a few of the dozens of Boston's cultural institutions.
And the Boston Edition of the Monopoly® games takes you beyond the city's historical roots to the contemporary side of life. You could land on FAO Schwarz (the big toy shop where this game can be bought as well!) or Talbots or Legal Sea Foods. Or you could go to Cheers, "where everyone knows your name".

This is the slogan above the story at the bottom of the box, which continues with:

Some folks call it "The Windy City". Others call it "Sweet Home Chicago", "That Toddlin' Town" or "City of Big Shoulders", but perhaps the truest motto for Chicago is also the most prosaic - "The City That Works".
With miles of lakefront and literally hundreds of city parks, it is not only the city that works, but one that plays, too. Established along the shining shores of Lake Michigan, Chicago's miles of lakefront, beaches and city parks afford postcard views and a playground for all ages. Grand Park, the city's "front yard", offers tranquil corners, shaded walkways, pleasant picnic spots and grand views of the city skyline, the lake and Buckingham Fountain. The heart of Chicago, known as "The Loop", is a vibrant commercial center anchored by Marshall Field's historic State Street store, bordered by the Sears Tower and one of the city's great cultural treasures, The Art Institute of Chicago.
Another celebrated neighborhood, Chicago's Magnificent Mile, boasts some of the city's ritziest hotels, shops and restaurants along its glamorous thoroughfare, North Michigan Avenue. A world-class shopping mecca, Chicago's Magnificent Mile is home to Water Tower Place, Crate & Barrel, FAO Schwartz and flagships of the world's finest stores. The area's cultural gem is the new Museum of Contemporary Art. It's just a leisurely stroll past the Tribune Tower to the beautifully renovated Navy Pier featuring shops, restaurants and the outdoor Skyline Stage.
With over six thousand dining options in Chicago, ethnic culinary adventures abound - Maggiano's is a local favorite for classic Italian. Friendly Midwestern cuisine ranges from hearty steaks and Eli's Cheesecake to Gino's famous deep dish pizza.
Amidst Chicago's many urban pleasures is the city's most cherished landmark, the Historic Water Tower, welcoming visitors from around the world. One of few buildings to survive the city's greatest tragedy, the Great Chicago Fire of 1871, Historic Water Tower is a symbol of Chicago's indefatigable spirit.

Lovers of picturesque Boathouse Row and culinary fans of the open-air Italian Market will delight in snatching up these venerable Philly landmarks.
