Congratulations to the Oregon Zoo for once again earning greater Portland area voter support for their new Campus Plan! CLR Design is proud of this effort as the continuation of our 15 years of successful collaboration with the Oregon Zoo. We cannot wait to see what comes next!
The approval of Measure 26-244 in May of 2024 authorizes $380 million in bonds to support new facilities at the zoo as proposed in the Oregon Zoo 2024 Capus Plan. This plan is the result of a comprehensive year-long process involving a diverse group of individuals from the Oregon Zoo, Metro Parks, CLR design, and our team of dedicated engineers and consultants as well as the feedback of hundreds of community members and partners. The many exciting improvements proposed focus on the oldest areas of the zoo and center around animal wellbeing, guest amenities, accessibility, sustainability, and resilience. Work has already begun on the reimagination of the Zoo entry with much more to come!
