Zoo officials released images showing a new entrance where visitors “will be immersed in the sights, sounds and rich culture” of the city.
A rendering shows the San Antonio Zoo's remodeled entrance, now under construction.
Construction began in January and the new entryway is expected to open later this year. The project is one piece of the zoo’s long-term master plan and was first announced in November 2021. Renderings of the remade entrance show colorful landscaping and artwork created by local artists in the fiesta courtyard along with an outsized gorilla sculpture and overhead butterfly art.
The renovation is intended to improve the guest experience, infrastructure, safety and accessibility, stated the announcement. There will be a designated entrance for school groups, better pedestrian and traffic flow and improved access for those with disabilities.
