speaking of the zoo... with the dilapidated state of the Aquarium at the zoo, i've always hoped that they would build an Aquarium at Wheeler park (and also pay homage to the original zoo). This would give downtown another attraction to get people down there (especially on weekends). and give the zoo the ability to find a different use for the area where the current aquarium is.

i don't see this happening... but it is what i have hoped would happen for about 10 years now.
