Some people like the feeling you get when, after a long day's work in some airless cubicle mausoleum, you turn onto your street and look! It's all shady and green. It's Pleasantville! Other people like what a tree-lined street does to their property values (hint: they go up). Others enjoy the free air conditioning in the summer. Some people don't like street trees because trees (a) drop leaves (b) lift sidewalks (c) drop the occasional branch (d) demand the occasional bit of care. That's the sort of diverse viewpoint that makes our neighborhood great!
Got a few minutes? Go walk down Snyder or Warren Avenues. What makes the homes on these streets so special? The street trees! So maybe you want to put a beautiful, verdant street tree in front of your home. Good for you. How do you go about it? Check out this page!
