Construction under canopy of trees threatens tree survival

Please click on image to ENLARGE view of one of the few significant trees remaining on the former Aspen Ridge Townhouse construction site now being completed as Hill Place student apartments. The street route was dug out in early 2006 or late 2005 and now that a sidewalk has actually been constructed, even less space for tree roots to re-grow appears available. So neighbors wonder whether this and some of the other trees remaining in the dedicated parkland will be alive to shade park visitors after another year.
