According to former employees, The School Yard Bar & Grill, 1815 E. Kenilworth Pl., is closed. The space was formerly Southport and, before that, it was Cans for eight years.

The School Yard is one of three bars to close in the neighborhood in the past couple of months. Yield Bar, which will soon become Yokohama 1910, shut down earlier this month, and Nick's House closed in early May.

Stay tuned to OnMilwaukee for more information when it becomes available.
