Those huge, dead branches are a hazard and it's surprising they are still there after so many years. If they trimmed the tree back to it's trunk, it might come back like the one in La Plaza did.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-80577849508849763562015-08-14T19:48:45.752-04:002015-08-14T19:48:45.752-04:00THE VIEW FROM MY BEDROOM WINDOW TOO!!

In 1981 when I lived near AVE C, there were blocks burnt out and empty lots all around. Our gardens are the product of good people making a difference with very little or no resources.
