The Detroit Zoo’s massive penguin center has reopened to the public more than two years after it was shuttered to repair faulty waterproofing.

Visitors were welcomed inside the Polk Penguin Conservation Center this week for the first time since the 33,000-square-foot facility closed in September 2019. The penguins were sent back to their old habitat at the nearby Penguinarium, but that facility was not open to visitors. The tuxedoed birds were returned to the Polk Center last year, and it reopened to visitors on Valentine's Day. The delay in reopening was lengthened in part due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Murphy said.
