Oakland Zoo’s new gondola, restaurant opening Monday with stunning aerial views - News Article Locations on Waymarking.com

"Sleek glass-encased gondolas will, beginning Monday, start whisking visitors at the Oakland Zoo over the rolling hills of Knowland Park to a new restaurant at the Kaiser Permanente Visitor Center.

The opening marks the first phase of the zoo’s California Trial expansion, a $70 million project that doubled the size of the complex to roughly 100 acres. Beginning in the summer of 2018, visitors will be able to get up-close views of eight native California animal species, including grizzly bears, bald eagles, gray wolves, California condors, mountain lions, jaguars, black bears and American bison, said Joel Parrott, president and CEO of the Oakland Zoo."
