The Philadelphia Zoo while still having and using it's small mammal house, also has a brand new state of the art facility, the Rare Animal Conservation Center, that functions as a combination small primate/small mammal display structure. The Henry Doorly Zoo has the Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom Pavilion, and the Denver Zoo has the Fleeshman Family Foundation Tropical Discovery conservatory that combines aspects of small mammal houses with aviaries, herpetariums, and aquariums. At the National Zoo the exterior is vintage Romanesque architecture, but the interior is modernized and well maintained.
