Cutting down the big trees





These trees use to provide a pretty scene for people who live along 14th Avenue East. About one year ago they were chopped down. Will the HDC replace the trees with something nice to look at?

Research has shown that nature scenes can have positive effects on mental health. See Trees and their relationship to mental health.

In less than one hour these trees came down. It was pretty amazing to watch. But also very sad. Were the trees diseased or what was the reasoning for taking them out?

It would be nice if some type of tree replaced the three that came down.

Added Sept. 24, 2010. This summer new deciduous trees were planted around this building. One was planted where the big evergreens where chopped down. Thank you HDC for keeping the neighborhood friendly.
