About 33 institutions in Europe, don’t know if any in North America.
Geoffroy’s Cats are also kept in relatively large numbers here in North America, mostly in smaller private zoos. The only large zoo in North America I can think of that has them is Columbus, although I’m sure there are more.

Does anyone know any zoos (if any) that have three-toed sloth?

Dallas World Aquarium houses Brown-throated Three-toed Sloth, and according to ZTL, Zoo de Guyane in Macouria, French Guyana houses Pale-throated.
If by large you mean AZA, it's just Columbus.
Which is not an AZA-accredited institution.
Does any North American zoo currently have Hazel Grouse, Black Grouse, Ptarmigan (either Rock or Willow), Rose-breasted Grosbeak, Baltimore oriole?

There's a Rose-breasted Grosbeak at Flamingo Gardens in Florida. I went a couple of weeks ago and it was still there.
Baltimore Oriole is kept by Philadelphia. They were also kept at Smithsonian before the bird house closed in addition to Rose-breasted Grosbeak, although I can't confirm whether or not they're both still there.

I believe they still are there
Rose-breasted Grosbeak and Baltimore Oriole are both kept by Bay Beach Wildlife Sanctuary and Columbus. Brookfield also keeps Baltimore Oriole.

I don't know about Beijing but two Japanese zoos do, see the comments on this photo:

George Archibald (founder of the International Crane Foundation) tried to bring this species to North America when he rediscovered it, but couldn't get approval from the Korean government. In a parallel universe ICF could have bred this species.
