Much of Cobble Hill's beauty comes from the hundreds of fully grown trees canopying the neighborhood. While most grow more beautiful as they mature, some trees must be trimmed or removed entirely as branches die. This past summer two trees on Clinton Street (one at the corner of Verandah Place, and one opposite Cobble Hill Park) were cut down and dug out by the parks department. Thankfully, two replacements have just gone in recently. It'll take many years for them to recreate the green glory of their predecessors but be sure to stop by and show some eco-appreciaton for the new White Oak and Golden Rain Tree next time you're strolling Clinton Street.
In other tree news... Xmas is over so please remember to recycle your trees at the Cobble Hill Mulchfest.Saturday, January 9 & Sunday, January 10.
