has anyone else been following the drama with the zoo it's now looking like the zoo will close in the spring. now, im thinking that it will then become an excellent UE location, just watch out for the tigers that they forget to send to different zoos.

I've been to the Detroit Zoo before and I'll miss the opportunities to go there as it functions as a zoo... But your right. Zoos, I imagine, would make excellent UE playgrounds, particuarly ones as large as the Detroit Zoo.

So does the city have another zoo or is the "cultural" decline of the city just continuing?

nope, no other zoo, just the city council being blithely incompetent...as usual. Oh, and I'm digging your avatar.

Anyway if this zoo kicks it and is actually left empty PM the hell out of me. I'll make together some kinda roadtrip with MN explorers and head on over. Big abandoned zoo = I have to cross my legs.

well, the point at which the zoo is actually abandoned could be a while, what wi th shipping the animals off and all. and, as usual, the city council is now trying to save face by attempting to save the zoo, which may or may not work. ill keep you updated.

My cousin works for the Detroit Zoo and as of a couple days ago when I talked to her the zoo is to remain open but will mostly likely lose independent control of operations to the cultural society while the city stakes claim to the control of the money (what little there is). It seems like a way for the city to save face in the wake of declining attendance, but I don't see how this plan will keep the zoo open in the long run. If I hear more I'll let you know.

Leo1: You cant just wander around Gary going into old buildings! Theres plenty of crackheads that will bust you in the mouth for that camera, then run a train your ladyfriends.
Me: I like Gary, I think its nice, aside from the lack of eats on a Sunday afternoon.
Leo2: Yeah, its really nice...until we find three dead strangers in an...abandoned...thing.
