Turtle Back Zoo Deck 3
West Orange, New Jersey
The third deck designed by the firm at the Essex County Turtle Back Zoo is a 5-level precast concrete parking deck structure. Designed for a future additional 6th level, the deck also houses zoo back- of- the- house functions and staff rooms and offices at the lower level. The design of the deck incorporates a large graphic screen fabric panel system covering the entire West façade to filter the deck appearance from the nearby reservoir and its active jogging, hiking and nature trails.
