In the classic Monopoly board game, what is the rent for an unimproved Park Place?

The story behind the answer

The rent for an unimproved Park Place property in classic Monopoly is $35.

“Unimproved” means that the owner has built no houses or hotel on the property. Park Place belongs to the dark blue color group with Boardwalk, and its base rent is much lower than the rent charged after buildings are added. Owning the complete color group doubles the unimproved rent, provided the property has no buildings.

Park Place is the second-most expensive purchasable street on the standard American board, while Boardwalk has the highest purchase price. Players often remember Park Place because it appears in the game’s famous advertising phrase alongside Boardwalk, but its rent schedule is separate.

Different national editions may rename or reprice properties, so the $35 amount specifically describes the classic American version.
