AFRICAN ELEPHANT CROSSING at cleveland metro parks zoo

Marous Brothers Construction worked with some specialty subcontractors in areas such as caging systems, hydraulic door control systems, and exhibit rockwork and artifacts. There were also immense amounts of coordination between the zoo’s continuing operations and the construction plan, so as not to disturb the animals in the general vicinity or the shows in the amphitheater. This project is the first LEED Gold certified animal exhibit at an accredited zoo. The African Elephant Crossing serves as a model of elephant habitat and care for zoos nationwide.
