Figuring out the Monopoly GO square

I am a huge fan of Monopoly and have spent hours playing it with my friends. But the one thing I never actually questioned is whether the ‘GO’ square was actually a real place.

Ordnance Survey – a mapping firm – figured out the exact location of the real ‘GO’ square using a digital mapping device. As it turns out, the location is right next to the famous Albeit landmark in London, between Old Kent Road and Mayfair (as on the board).

While this is interesting, I can’t help wondering whether this firm really had nothing better to do than figure this out.
