History
editMilwaukee landscape architect Alfred Boerner roughed out plans for the parkway in 1923, but nothing was built until 1930, when federal relief programs made resources available. The parkway was partially built by the Civilian Conservation Corps and the Works Progress Administration of the New Deal.[5]
