100-year old Brooklyn tree to be destroyed

Visited Curbed this morning, and saw a link to a sad post:

The board of directors at 145 Hicks is trying to take down the huge elm tree in front of the building. This is one of the most venerable and lovely of our trees, is in perfect health, and removing it would be a terrible loss to our neighborhood. lease consider doing a piece about this. Shareholders and residents on the block are in the process of having any removal action stopped.

Buh Bye Big Elm Tree

According to a comment on BHB, the deed is already done:

145 HICKS STREET BOARD VOTES TO CUT DOWN 100 YEAR OLD TREE !

Only G-d can make a tree !

Only a "human" would be capable of destroying one !

Let's all bow our heads in prayer and shame !
