Project

Milwaukee County Zoo Otter Exhibit and West Entrance

Milwaukee Coumty Zoo West Entrance and Otter Exhibit

Cotter provided Construction Management services to assist in executing construction for the Milwaukee County Zoo Otter Exhibit and West Entrance. Teaming with Gilbane, Cotter provided an on-site field engineer to assist with RFIs, submittals, meeting notes, and to facilitate Owner-Contractor-Architect communication.

The Wisconsin Department of Transportation Zoo Interchange project used a portion of land from the Milwaukee County Zoo‘s east parking lot. This prompted the county to develop plans for a new west entrance, outdoor otter exhibit, ticket booth, gift shop, food service building, and 525-space parking lot.

Project completion

One of the neat perks of construction management is that no two projects are exactly alike, but working on the Milwaukee County Zoo Otter Exhibit was truly a one of a kind experience. Having the opportunity to build something that I can take my daughter to and enjoy with family and friends for years to come is extremely fulfilling. The fact that it turned out so beautiful is just the cherry on top!

Recognition

The key objective of Otter Passage was to provide a great visitor experience with live animals immediately upon entering the Zoo"
