ARE THERE ANY EXISTING CAGES OR BUILDINGS THAT WERE PART OF THE ORIGINAL ALEXANDRIA ZOO AND BRINGHURST PARK DURING THE 1920S AND 1930S?

The duck and turtle pool (originally a fish pool) made of small rocks located near the flamingo yard is the only remaining animal exhibit. The fountain is not original although there is a campaign to get the original fountain back in the Zoo. The Louisiana Habitat Exhibit is built in an area where City Park Blvd. and the infamous Rock Garden were. The Zoo salvaged rocks from the garden and have used them in different areas throughout the Zoo. The John Knox Natatorium (old swimming pool building) and the star pond next to the snake exhibit in Louisiana Habitat were built during the WPA era in the 1930s.
