Rebuilding the zoo is estimated to cost $110 million, while adding flashy, new amenities to Greenwood Park is projected to cost another $40 million.


$150 million?

What a waste of money

I completely agree. But in it's current state, renovation or no renovation, the North Baton Rouge Zoo will die out.

The 40 million to greenwood is the bigger waste of money. I'm not sure what else "flashy" they could add.

They have a golf course, golf carts, disc golf course, lake with boats, small water play area, playground, party rooms, clubhouse...all of this fairly brand new. What the hell else do they need?

For years all the OT says about the zoo is that it sucks, they need to tear it down, it's in a shite area, and people should drive to nola to go to a real zoo.

Brec decides (hopefully) to get rid of it, build a brand new zoo in a good area, and now it's a waste of money. Lol
