Portland apartment residents are all fun loving folks with a thirst for adventure. That's one reason that they love the Oregon Zoo so much. There is always something new to see and adventurous to jump into. This amazing zoo is part of Portland history. Since its inception in the mid 1800's by a local pharmacist, Richard Knight, who collected animals and kept them behind the pharmacy. The Oregon Zoo has grown and prospered and draws Portland apartment residents by the thousands each year. There are animals here from every corner of the world. From elephants to penguins to bear of all species, this zoo has it all. Each animal is living in exact replicas of their own natural habitat so that Portland apartment dwellers can get a better understanding of what makes the world go around. Oregon Zoo apartment residents can take advantage of all the great educational programs, lectures, demonstrations and summer concert series. This great zoo is committed to the Portland apartments communities as well as the animals they house. Education and preservation are important factors here. Check out the zoo and the animals, the gorgeous gardens and the train. It's a great place to go whether you're a single apartment resident or a family member with kiddies in tow. Bring a date or hang out with the gang, it's a fun place for all of the above
