HOW TO REACH THE ZOOLOGICAL 

 PARK. 



For ten years, many of the newspapers of 

 New York have constantly endeavored to inform 

 their readers that the Zoological Park is in the 

 Bronx! The energy and persistence with which 

 we are Bronxed, year in and year out, is worthy 

 of a real public necessity. If there were in New 

 York City an assortment of zoological parks, 

 then would we cheerfully accept "Bronx" as a 

 part of our name; but there is only one Zoolog- 

 ical Park hereabouts, and Jonas Bronck never 

 dreamed of founding it. 



The Zoological Park {"in the Bronx") is 

 most easily reached by the eastern branch of the 

 Subway. To-day the trains are marked "Bronx 

 Park" and "West Farms;" but we are informed 

 that in a short time our trains will be marked 

 "Zoological Park." To reach the center of the 

 Zoological Park from Wall Street requires about 

 55 minutes, and from the Grand Central Station 

 about 40 minutes. The Subway terminus is at 

 180th Street, only two short blocks from our 

 Boston Road Entrance, and the Boat House. 



AND BALD-HEADED CHIMPANZEE "BALDY." 

 Pan pygmaeus (Schreiber) 

 Equatorial West Africa. 



Visitors coming up on the Third Avenue Ele- 

 vated should alight at Fordham Station, and 

 either walk or take a surface car eastward on 

 Pelham Avenue for nearly half a mile. The In- 

 terborough cross-town lines on ISOth Street, and 

 also on 189th Street, land visitors near our two 

 western entrances. 



CARRIAGES AND AUTOMOBILES.— 

 The route from lower New York for carriages 

 and automobiles is through Central Park, Lenox 

 Avenue, Macomb's Dam Bridge, and Jerome or 

 Washington Avenues to Pelham Avenue, thence 

 eastward to our new Concourse Entrance, at the 

 Bronx River bridge. Vehicles with visitors may 

 enter the Park at that point, and land them at 

 the steps leading up to Baird Court. 



PAY DAYS AND FREE DAYS.— The 

 Park is free on all days of the week save Mon- 

 days and Thursdays. On those two pay-days 

 an admission of 25c. for adults is charged to all 

 persons who are not members of the Society. 



The Official Guide to the Zoological Park, 

 fully illustrated, can be obtained at all entrances, 

 for 25 cents.
