Here's a Snowvember-morning-after look at some of the downed limbs and trees that remain on East Village streets... yesterday's wet, heavy snow proved too much for the trees that still had leaves intact...

12th Street west of Second Avenue (thanks Laura)...



St. Mark's Place near Third Avenue (thanks Lola Sáenz) ...





Fifth Street between First Avenue and Second Avenue suffered considered limb losses... the East Fifth St. Tree Committee took stock of the damage...









In total on the block, four trees lost limbs. "The East Fifth St. Tree Committee is devastated," a committee member said via email.
