The Prospect Park Zoo in Brooklyn is set to reopen on May 25 after being closed for repairs due to severe flooding caused by Tropical Storm Ophelia. The zoo's infrastructure was destroyed in September, and it has taken 8 months to complete the necessary work for reopening. The reopening will coincide with Memorial Day weekend, allowing visitors to see the furry, feathered, and feline friends once again. The zoo is considered a vital cultural institution, with efforts to support its recovery being acknowledged by city officials and the Wildlife Conservation Society.
