Letter: Tree Removal on Tremont Street Comes as a Surprise
Dear Editor,
This morning I woke up to the pleasant noise of chain saws and wood chippers outside my windows.
I look out and the city has cut down 3-4 beautiful trees that lined our street. There was no notice of this happening, and they destroyed my privacy and curb appeal.
I know that other residents of the area were upset as well. The trees were beautiful and healthy. They withstood the winds of Sandy without breaking a limb.
The trees were located alongside the building 655 Tremont Street on W. Brookline where Gold Gallery is.
My windows are directly above Gold Gallery looking out onto W. Brookline. I now have no privacy, and the street looks horrible. They also destroyed our brick sidewalk in the process.
I thought I would bring this to your attention so we can get some neighborhood awareness about this, and prevent things like this happening in the future.
Let me know if you have any questions, and go take a look; it is bad!
Sincerely,
Patrick Miller
Resident
