The Green Bay Playfield, first developed in 1928, is located on the north side of Milwaukee. It was renovated as part of Milwaukee Recreation’s Equity Prioritization Model to reinvest in parks that have been the most historically disinvested across the city.
The universal design was informed by an extensive community engagement process, led by Milwaukee Recreation, to determine the recreational interests of the neighborhood. The renewed playfield features a range of vibrant and engaging play opportunities tailored to the surrounding community. It includes a custom playground, splash pad, basketball and tennis courts, shade structures, seating areas, an outdoor classroom, increased green space, and more.
