Sandy and I were at Pinecrest Gardens over the weekend for the annual arts festival. As we were walking around the lush, winding paths, she tripped on the uneven bricks, she didn't fall, just stumbled. We both laughed and imagined that they would have to possibly change the bricks out at the park and in doing so, remove all the trees, just like the plan in Coconut Grove.
Remove the bricks, take all the trees with them. As if. I'm sure if anyone tried to remove one limb of one tree in Pinecrest, their heads would be served on a platter. Here in the Grove, it's the plan on the books.
Coconut Grove TreeWatch has filed an appeal to stop the removal of two trees at the corner of SW 27 Avenue and US1. They were slated for removal as part of the renovation project, then taken off the plans for removal, now they are back on the plans to be removed. There was no notice given and now TreeWatch has filed an appeal. You can read the appeal here at the TreeWatch Facebook page.
