Waterfowl Lake and Birds of the World, 1950
By the mid century, the recently renamed Cleveland Zoological Park had both money and a new administration. Working to establish itself as a modern institution, new permanent exhibit spaces were constructed. Birds of the World, completed in 1950, was the zoo's first modern building. The structure included two large naturalistic exhibits, where birds could live without needing to have their wings pinioned.
