The Pittsburgh Zoo and PPG Aquarium Renovation project will create a new front gate/admissions area and renovate outmoded elevator/escalator systems, as well as build a Learning and Events Center and install large-scale acrylic windows and tunnels as part of the Zoo's latest construction project, Compass Point. This construction and renovation project is vital to the Zoo's continued growth and success. This RACP scope will be part of a larger scope project of nearly $20 million. The entire project will include the construction of the Zoo's newest exhibits, Compass Point and The Mountains. These new exhibits will house conservation and rescue/rehabilitation programs for endangered and threatened species, including Florida Manatees.
