Woodland Park Zoo and its 'landscape immersion' exhibits

Woodland Park Zoo, at 5500 Phinney Ave N, is a longtime Seattle institution that traces its origins to the late 19th century and became well known for adopting 'landscape immersion' exhibit design starting in the late 20th century. The zoo's exhibits and conservation programs have made it a prominent site for public education about regional and global wildlife and a frequent subject in local conservation narratives. The institution also hosts seasonal events and community programs tied to Seattle's civic life.
