Stark Playfield

Project Description

Stark Playfield and the fieldhouse will be renovated to create a safe, more accessible, community recreation space in north Milwaukee.

The project will involve site-wide earthwork improvements to ensure the space has many level and durable recreation areas, including a high-quality grass multi-sport field with sports lighting, universally accessible tot lot, interactive splash pad with shade structure, asphalt play areas, and updated tennis and basketball facilities.

With the addition of pedestrian-specific park entries, a walking loop for off-street exercise opportunities, and secure gated entries for maintenance vehicles, the new renovation will allow all users to access and move throughout the entire playfield more easily. Fencing will be replaced around the site to improve the playfield's safety and appearance. The fieldhouse will be renovated to establish universal access to all common areas, more durable materials and finishes, and improved building security through the installation of new windows and doors.
