Concern for this drooping American elm in Tompkins Square Park

There's caution tape around one of the majestic American elms in Tompkins Square Park, just inside the mid-block entrance on Seventh Street between Avenue A and Avenue B. 

EVG reader Kate, who also sent in a photo, noted that the tree's branches are drooping noticeably now....
The tree map, provided by the Parks Department, indicates that it was inspected in February, with an unspecified service performed in May.
Here's hoping it just needs some pruning — and not something more serious.
