Mayor Denny Doyle’s theme for his 2019 state of the city remarks was simply: Beaverton is booming.
Projects such as the Public Safety Center and the Patricia Reser Center for the Arts are or soon will be underway, new housing is or soon will be built, restaurants and other businesses are opening downtown and elsewhere in an increasingly diverse city.
“With so many good things, is it any surprise that people want to live in Beaverton?” Doyle told the crowd gathered Thursday, Jan. 10, at FT Equities and Specht Properties. The event was cosponsored by the Beaverton Chamber of Commerce.
