Thanks Bob,
I created a watch area for URI, so they will get this.
They did a bunch of planting with STate STreet last weekend and on a walk to Jocelyn square I realized what an asset it would be to have trees down this part of Humphrey. I will talk to Chris and colleen about it.

Acknowledged by Upper State Street Association.
We have applied for a Green Space Program with URI Program for this area.

Great News! I have been in contact with URI, State DOT and City of New Haven. Looks like we may get approval to plant trees here this year. See attached suggested drawing created by Chris Ozyck.
What do you think? Please give your thoughts and follow this issue if you want us to email you when your planting.

Looks good to me.

Thanks Brian!
Will you be around to help out this season?

Sweet.

Where do the funds for the materials, labor and upkeep come from in a project such as this? Will these trees be able to thrive here?

Help resolve this with a comment, image or video...The trees are paid for by the city, the labor and maintenance by the community and knowledge from URI. Have not lost a tree yet.
Come help this summer, we would love to have you!

Hopefully! I just submitted one internship application and I'm about halfway done with my second.

Would you be interested in interning with SeeClickFix?

Hey Guys,
We are planting trees here tonight at 6pm.

Check out the video from last night's tree planting

This has been fixed!!
