The $1.8 million renovation of Bethea Park Estates, renamed Gateway Garden Apartments, in Washougal, is among the "Top Projects," named by the Vancouver Business Journal. Other honored local developments include Hayes Freedom High School, Doc Harris stadium, Immelman Hangars at Grove Field, phase one of Northwest Leadbetter Drive improvements, 192nd Avenue Plaza and the addition and remodel of Dorothy Fox Elementary School.

While last-minute filers were submitting tax returns online or at the post office, William Lee of Camas, was taking photos in tulip fields in Woodburn, Ore.

One of the results of his April 15 late evening photo session has led to recognition in the Energizer Ultimate Photo Contest with National Geographic magazine.
