Jay reports:
“Someone chopped down half of this pretty row of trees on 8th Between R Street and S Street Northwest. The trees made otherwise dismal projects look a lot better. Sad!
They look down 6 healthy looking trees. It was the only thing beautiful about the block. 5 are left. They all looked healthy to me last summer until the fall/winter shed. But I’m not a tree expert. It all looked fine to me.
I included one with all the trees in snow to show how pretty it was.”
