Greene Avenue is Growing!

This spring, we were awoken one morning to hear the crunching sound of digging into the concrete outside our front window, and were pleasantly surprised to see that Million Trees NYC was planting a beautiful Green Vase tree right in front of our front window! The block received a few of these pretty little trees, which we hope will grow to be as tall as the giant Green Vase trees lining our block.  

This morning, a truck from Mayor Bloomberg's PLANyc Green Initiative drove by and added a pretty wrought-iron tree guard around the new tree (and some of the old ones) - which I think is a nice addition to our block. What do you think?

P.S. To our new Clifton Place neighbors, if you would like to request a free tree for your block check out the Million Trees NYC website.
