A capital campaign is underway to build the African Experience at Franklin Park Zoo by updating the African Penguin Coast and the African Savanna habitats. The $16 million project, when completed, will be a feature of the continuing transformation of Franklin Park Zoo as the habitats – marking the return of these temperate climate living species to the zoo for the first time
Courtesy of Sasaki Designed with the very best of Louisiana’s natural and cultural environments in mind, the new park serves as a place to both get away and come together. The balanced nature-based and active program elements are stitched together by a network of multi-modal trails that connect people to this place. The reimagined BR Zoo, now opening into the park, becomes part of a larger constellation of community uses that serve people of all ages, from all walks of life. The new Greenwood Park will be a neighborhood park for Baker and North Baton Rouge as well as a regional destination for EBR and beyond.
