Workers have finished removing the branch that fell from this American Elm on Sunday afternoon near the Avenue A and St. Mark's Place entrance to Tompkins Square Park.
Witnesses said it appeared the branch came close to a man in a wheelchair.
In some positive news, it appears the rest of the tree will be able to remain here...
And a look at the fallen limb from yesterday... which took out a section of the Park fence...

It's sad how many tress have recently collapsed in the park. I wonder what is the root cause?
root cause is that trees are like us--they grow old and die.
The root is the cause
Poor tree !
It looks like it was bleeding in the second pic.,
you could almost feel the pain.
Someone needs to do a study in this.
