Looks like a prominent developer in the area plans to invest further over the next 5 years in the Stringtown area (west of downtown/near the zoo).https://www.ibj.com/articles/70287-stringtown-set-for-big-investments

My Dad always said to us kids while at the Zoo- don't poke the tiger-lol

Sadly many parts of our city are a zoo.

It's an area where a rip off artist can do very well in an unregulated area of business, anyone can be a guru, if you let them.Pretty much why I tell people to go learn the basics instead of getting caught up in some forum zoo, blog, podcast, coloring book, paint by numbers set or system, go learn the reality of real estate first, then jump in with all the clowns in the car, see the tactics, if you like some strategy then learn that and go invest or make some money.

I tried to work zoo and could not get the hang of it.

We knew that no other market would allow us to rebuild faster than southern California.Low unemploymentBroad based economy, rather than depending on one sectorHighly educated workforceHigh demand for propertiesHuge variety of properties to invest in Perfect year round weather Several universities and medical centersAmusement parks, zoos, professional sports teams, and so much more! 

It was a Zoo, and the City charged you an arm and a leg for any type of ordinance violations that they could possible think of, such as a $3,200.00 fine if your grass in the alley was over 1 1/2 " high.  

I currently sit in a cubicle (in fact writing this from it), and once I shed this burden of a job (goal of april 2015), I want to do the following: wake up with my kids, watch cartoons with them and make them breakfast, take them to the zoo in the middle of the day when it's not busy, hit the gym in the afternoon before the 9-5ers start flooding in, golf early in the morning when it's cheap and not busy, travel home to see family or take trips to the beach or ski slopes whenever we feel like it.  

Legal Zoo is a good site.
