WEDC investment to help fund site investigation for redevelopment.
MADISON, WI. JULY 1, 2021 – The Redevelopment Authority of the City of Milwaukee (RACM) is receiving a $150,000 state grant to assist in the site investigation of a property located in Milwaukee.
The Brownfield Site Assessment Grant from the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation (WEDC) will support site clearance and environmental site investigation of a historic Haymarket district property that will be redeveloped into the Milwaukee Public Museum and Betty Brinn Children’s Museum.
“A vibrant downtown is key to a community’s overall economic health, and this development will bring more visitors to downtown, which will benefit other businesses and the entire community,” said

A cloudburst of rain didn’t stop Milwaukee Public Schools officials and local kids from cutting a ribbon to officially reopen Franklin Square Playfield, though they did it at a make-shift, indoor ceremony Tuesday morning. They were celebrating the sixth completed park of a multi-year effort to renovate 52 playfields throughout the city.
The newly renovated playfield, located at 2643 N. 13th St., now boasts basketball courts, playground equipment, a splash pad, shade structures, an obstacle course and a field. At the groundbreaking in October 2019, the North Division space had well worn basketball courts and a small, old playground.
