架构师提供的文本描述。新的伍德兰公园动物园西入口取代了旧的北、西入口，提供便利设施和服务，允许大量游客快速进入动物园，同时保持足够亲密的规模，供小团体或个人享用。动物园入口是作为一个节点的经验，沿着一个更大的路径围绕伍德兰公园。广场有各种各样的座位或聚会机会，是动物园的赞助者和广大公众都喜欢的城市空间。

Text description provided by the architects. The new Woodland Park Zoo West Entrance replaces the old north and west entrances providing amenities and services in an arrangement that allows large numbers of guests to enter the zoo quickly, while maintaining a scale intimate enough to be enjoyed by small groups or individuals. The zoo entrance is meant to be experienced as a node along a larger path around Woodland Park. With a variety of opportunities for seating or gathering, the plaza is a civic space enjoyed by zoo patrons and the public at large.

游客会遇到一个广场，那里的服务地点是合乎逻辑的，从购票到动物园入口处的游行，直观。这些建筑和景观形成了两个室外空间：一个向公众开放的外部广场和一个内部广场，这是动物园内三条主要环路的主要枢纽之一。一个带有滑动门的宝莲花把广场隔开了。动物园商店打破了其他西方入口建筑所建立的强大的水平基准面，把它区分为一个值得纪念的地标，帮助游客在通过动物园完成他们的参观后，将他们的进入地点定位到他们的入口。

Visitors encounter a plaza where the location of services is logical, and the procession from ticket purchase to zoo entrance, intuitive. The buildings and landscaping form two outdoor spaces: an exterior plaza, open to the public, and an interior plaza that is one of three major hubs along the main loop path within the zoo. A pergola with sliding gates separates the plazas. The zoo store breaks the strong horizontal datum established by the other west entry buildings, distinguishing it as a memorable landmark that helps orient visitors to their place of entry after they’ve completed their circuit through the zoo.
