In its place, they're building a new playground, basketball and pickleball courts, and a new bocce ball court with plans to also build a large pavilion for public use.

'We're going to go all summer, probably sometime in the fall, we'll be completed with the project. We've been able to raise more than half of the money for it now, we're looking at probably three-quarters of a million dollars. We've been very good stewards of our funds,' said Vossler. 'It will still be high quality, yet we're being responsible with our funds.'
Vossler said the old playground will be re-purposed and donated to a school on Erie's east side.
