“Dear PoPville,
This morning I was awoken by a chainsaw outside my building, by the S street dog park in Dupont, and saw that DC was felling one of the two large trees outside (on the 1800 block of New Hampshire Ave, NW, picture attached). I reached out to the condo building’s property manager and he provided me with this response (screenshot also attached):
Unfortunately the tree you are referring to is maintained by the city as it’s located on the sidewalk. To my knowledge, they are discarding the entire tree and plan on removing some other trees on the other side of the street by the dog park. All the trees that are to be removed are marked by an orange dot. DC advised me that there are no plans to immediately replace them :(
I’ve been searching online for any public plans about the park greenery to no avail. Is there a plan that I’m missing?”
