Summary[]

There are some special facts about this one. In the UK Version, rent  is only ₤22, and ₤44 for a monopoly. It was $22 ($44 for a monopoly) in the original Atlantic City version until Parker Brothers changed it in the 1950s. Before then, it was the only exception to the pattern of the third property (second in the case of the browns/purples and dark blues) in a color group having the most expensive set of rents.

It is also the first property with pays at least $1000 in rent with four houses.
