Question. I believe they stopped the trolley usage in real life. I haven't been there in a while, so did they remove all the cables and poles for the cables as well?

In December 1997, the members of Lexington and Richland county councils approved the most ambitious bond issue in Riverbanks history to-date—$15 million. These funds were used for several improvements in the Zoo and Garden, known collectively as Zoo 2002. Among the enhancements was a new entrance to Riverbanks through the Botanical Garden, replacement of the Zoo’s original birdhouse, a new entry plaza, a new lemur island exhibit (no longer in zoo), new exhibits for elephants (no longer in the zoo) and gorillas (a very nice habitat), a new visitor service center (food, gift, and group assembly area) with an Africa theme (I can’t figure out where/if this is still in the zoo or changed names), and a koala exhibit (a very simple bare minimum habitat). These projects were constructed and completed over 3 years, between 1999 and 2002.

There is also an above ground/raised viewing platform for this habitat.

Here is a park map for this area.

After leaving the tunnel cut-trough the boats head towards the main park and the station near this land.

Headed all the way back down to the park entry elevation. Here you can see the lower queue and station for the sky ride that can take you up to the top of Mt Olympus...or you can choose to walk up via the inclined path to the left. I never did put finishing touches on this plaza in the foreground.

This looks really great. I love the wave machines in the lazy river and the beach looks awesome.

Immediately after completing Zoo II, the Commission and staff began to develop the next phase of the Riverbanks project — a formal botanical garden. Included in the Commission’s original lease from SCE&G was approximately 53 acres of land immediately across the Lower Saluda River from the Zoo. This incredible piece of property had been virtually unused for more than 100 years. The site presented the staff and designers with a number of challenges, such as a 100-foot rise in elevation from the river to the hilltop above. It was also heavily wooded with native hardwoods and pines, and large granite boulders litter the site. The property contains the stone ruins of one of South Carolina’s first textile mills and is the site where General Sherman's troops camped and shelled the city of Columbia prior to marching in and burning it during the Civil War. Construction of Riverbanks Botanical Garden began in 1994 following the unanimous passage of a $6 million bond issue. The Garden opened on June 10, 1995, and is connected to the Zoo by an 800-foot-long bridge over the Lower Saluda River. The Garden included a 10,000-square-foot venue, a formal walled garden, an antique rose garden (now collection garden), a historical interpretive center, and a half-mile-long nature trail along the native forest and riverbank. Visitors could access the Garden by walking or taking a motorized tram. Here are some more current photos of the gardens.
