Tree used for missing persons flier now missing

For several weeks now, there has been a "missing persons" flier attached to the tree right on Avenue A at Ninth Street. I don't recall all the details — a young man had not been seen for some time. Very sad.

Walking along A the other day, I saw that the tree with the missing persons flier was now missing too.

    Prime real estate space wasted on a tree. Maybe they can install an ATM there now...

    I live across the street from this (former) tree. It practically split in half during the strong winds this weekend. It was sad to see it go, but there was nothing left to save.

    I think this whole block has gone missing.

    I can't believe that tree is gone. It spooks me out.
