Ever about whether the old tree out front is going to survive a strong storm or wind? Here’s one that didn’t this weekend. Our Carroll Gardens Correspondent sends this image of a tree that came down on President Street between Clinton and Hicks (Brownstoner had the same fallen tree photographed by someone else), noting “A neighbor had been calling about the possibility of this tree falling for over 2 years.” Firemen did the chainsaw action between 130 and 230 am.

last summers tornado dropped a 100 yr old tree on my car. when i looked at the branches of the fallen tree they were hollow & rotted. that tree was just waiting to fall. shouldnt the city be examining trees on a continuing basis to prevent this?
