Geocache Description:

In June of 2010 the renovation of Lincoln Park Zoo's "South Pond" was complete. The "Studio Gang" Architects are the designers of "South Pond", "Natures Boardwalk" and the "Tortoise Shell" Pavilion. If you'd like to watch a time-lapse video on the construction of the Lincoln Park Zoo \ South Pond "Tortoise Shell" Pavilion, Click here

The "Tortoise Shell" Pavilion wood structure is bolted to steel structures anchored to a concrete foundation. The Architectural design goes all the way back to a sketch of a tortoise fossil form that "Jeanne Gang" made when teaching at Yale in 2004. The Studio Gang also designed buildings such as the "Aqua Tower" (225 N. Columbus Drive), which was awarded the Emporis Skyscraper Award of 2009. (U-tube here)
