About Us

The giant game board that is now Monopoly in the Park was produced by San Jose's Cypress Granite and Memorials as an exhibition for the 1992 San Francisco Landscape and Design Show. The office of San Jose Beautiful saw potential in the board and procured it for permanent installation in Discovery Meadow, near the Children's Discovery Museum in Downtown San Jose's Guadalupe River Park and Gardens.

Construction of an amphitheater, additional gametop tables and surrounding theme garden will be added during the second phase of the project.

The theme garden's design stems from a competition where fourteen different landscape architects, artists, and designers submitted plans to a panel of judges for review. NUVIS, a Costa Mesa architecture firm, was selected as the designer of Monopoly in the Park.
