Could we get a new tree here in 2025?

in 2024 a car drove into the tree that was originally planted here as well as the street light. both the street light and the tree were destroyed. the city has just recently replaced the light but I would love to see the tree replaced as well.

Existing tree well slated for new tree has been covered Please add tree here as previously indicated

An ailing city tree was removed from in front of our home at 13 Hollis St. (The sidewalk still needs to be fixed there as it is a fall hazard.)

There is no room in this narrow space to replant a tree, and this was confirmed by the crew removing the old tree. Instead they suggested that a tree might be planted near this spot, but in the corner of our front yard where there is space. Please let me know if this is possible. Thank you!

Tree well empty across from Windsor street health center can use a new tree been empty awhile

I'm following up on two previous requests about planting a new tree in front of 1 Walden Mews, on Walden Street, where there was once a huge tree that fell over; a new one that the City planted as a replacement died, and we were promised another new one but we've never received it despite our several requests. Many other trees have been planted in the meantime. Is it too late to plant a new one now and if so, why were we not given a new one in the fall as we were promised? The City has always been receptive in the past; this tree request has unfortunately been ignored.

City tree damaged and uprooted by car crash. Cross walk sign also knocked down. Please replace both.

needs tree for shade

This branch just fell out of the pictured tree located in Cooper Park and overhanging the play area. Luckily no kids were under when it fell completely without warning with no rain or wind. We just heard a loud splintering sound and a crash. This tree is very close to the new construction on Hancock which likely caused damage to the root system when the new foundation was dug (a consequence of allowing development so close to the lot line). This tree needs to be urgently evaluated and either pruned or removed. Looking closely there are a lot of small dead branches, and the leaves on many branches look small and shriveled and unhealthy. The trunk is also leaning significantly but it’s hard to know if the leaning is new. Somebody is likely to be severely injured if another branch falls here.
