Wade, the exterior of the elephant building has not changed, but the interior is totally new. It consists of all protected contact enclosures for the elephants, with only one area inside one door for public viewing of the elephants when they are inside. Giraffes, okapis, and any other animals that may have once also occupied the building are now housed elsewhere in the zoo. All doors are hydraulic, and operated by a computer screen.

Like Mary Ann has said, the interior of Cincy's barn is completely rennovated. They did a great job utilizing all the space to the best possible. A few problem blind spots, but a great use of space for holding a number of elephants in PC.
