Custom observation buildings

Alpha Dilophosaur:
While building a zoo, I thought of an Idea. Why not use elevated paths to make observation buildings? Here are the steps:

First, make a ramp 3 squares tall, with a one square ledge:

Then, build a three by five platform in front of it.

Next, surround all but the front three squares with tall fencing.

After that, put scenery like benches, donation boxes, and binocular stands inside.

When you have put all the scenery you want in it, put another three by five platform 2 squares above it. (the first square above it will be red, but the second one wont)

Then, attach it to a path, and add a "roof" over the ramp up by building a ramp down right above it.

To finish it off, build the exhibit and delete any pillars that might be in the way of the guests on the observation deck.

with these seven steps, you can build your own observation deck!
