As it turns out, Kermit was wrong. Not only is it easy being green, it's also incredibly relaxing. And that's exactly the inspiration behind Beaverton's Emerald Place Apartments. A quick 10 miles from the hip, urban downtown hub that is Portland, this lush and quiet neighborhood grants its neighbors a calm, tranquil refuge to call home, on a property spotted with beautiful pine and Douglas-fir trees alongside protected wetlands.
