The picture above shows the smaller one of the two new Gorilla indoor enclosures. It is number 1 on the following drawing: http://www.foerderer-der-wilhelma.de/pics/galerie/baustellenfuehrung/big/b_Stationen.GIF
You can find pictures of the two Gorilla enclosures here:

The new Gorilla-nursery will be located near the main Gorilla indoor enclosure (number 2 on the drawing). The nursed Gorillas will be able to see (and I think smell/hear?) the adult Gorillas and will be able to learn from them. (here is a picture: http://www.foerderer-der-wilhelma.de/pics/galerie/baustellenfuehrung/big/b_Handaufzucht.GIF)
The indoor enclosures will all have organic (mulch) floor! And they will have much more furniture for climbing etc. Keep in mind, that the pictures here on Zoochat do not show the finished enclosures!

You can also see the size and place of the Gorilla indoor exhibits and the Gorilla and Bonobo outdoor enclosures in the linked drawing.

Here you can find some pictures of the new Gorilla outdoor enclosure and then some more from inside the house: Wilhelma in Stuttgart: Schwere Baumstämme für das neue Außengehege der Gorillas - Stuttgart - Stuttgarter Zeitung
