There is a hole in the ground here where I imagine a tree was supposed to be. As it poses a tripping hazard, please plant another tree or fill it in.

A cone has been placed here to highlight the hole in the ground left by the missing tree. It’s been like this for at least three months and hopefully this is not the permanent solution. Please replace the tree or fill the hole.

The image is one of the sycamore trees planted along Madison, where the planter space is being outgrown. It appears that the metal sides of the box could be removed, and some bricks as well, to give the trees space to continue to grow. The trees are really an asset, and I hope that the arborist team can help keep them healthy. Just FYI!
Someone hacked all of these trees and limbed them up a ridiculous amount. Feels sooo barren now. Why would the city endorse this level of cutback on large sycamore trees? The canopy is going to be so high above a pedestrian that there is no feeling at all left of being in a wooded street scape. Very disappointing after all this work and money spent.
