Not in a park, they are the trees that line the sidewalks. But these trees are quite different than the skinny-minis that line the streets of Manhatten. The trees are old, tremendous and full of character. I love the way they rip up the concrete covering their roots, a fight between man and nature- and the trees always win. I like to think that these same trees have been there as the neighborhood changed through time. In a city of concrete and buildings, more appreciation should be paid to the trees.
