City removes Sandy-damaged willow on East 8th Street



A city crew is [finally] taking down a willow tree on East Eighth Street between Avenue B and Avenue C that didn't make it after Sandy...

Neighbor Alex Story, who took the top photo, also shared this shot of the healthy willow from several years back...



The city removed another Sandy-damanged willow from the 9th Street Community Garden Park back in August.

As for the the Eighth Street willow, as we recall, a local blogger had a cow wrote about the tree being pruned five or so years ago.

  1. That tree always looked squashed to me between those buildings...it was a poor choice of tree for that small a space.
