The future of Dyer Playfield in Milwaukee has sparked conversation as neighbors learned that Pius XI Catholic High School is exploring a future project at the park.

Pius XI Catholic High School wants to work with the City of Milwaukee and Milwaukee Public Schools' Recreation Department to "provide enhanced facilities."

However, some MPS school board members and residents are concerned about what those changes could bring.

"We use it quite often. Our grandkids come and play here," said resident Christine Selear.

Selear says Dyer Playfield is a gathering spot, especially as more young families move to the area.
