Tree Put Down

Some time at the beginning of the month, I took some pictures of fallen branches on the sidewalk outside El Jardin de Paraiso, on the East 4th Street side:

Branches on the ground, inside the garden.

The guilty tree has been dead for a while.

Then, this past week, the tree was cut down. Sections of the trunk lay in the street along the curb, with yellow caution tape around them. Unfortunately, I didn't have my camera with me to get pictures. (Can you believe it?!) It was at night, anyway.

Today, I got a picture of the newest addition to Paraiso: Stumpy!

Say Hello to my little friend!
