A good thing, with trees

At Danforth and Morton in east Toronto there sits a Toronto Hydro-Electric building. There were great, large trees on the street side of the property until this past March when this happened:




One of them was definitely diseased; the center rotten and barely any wood left surrounding it.  But still, I was moaning and complaining about how trees all over the neighborhood were being removed and not replaced.

And then this week, a miracle:



New trees in almost exactly the spots where they removed the old ones.  Our urban forest lives on!
