Brooklyn Bridge Park Gets Some Trees

bbp-trees-051809.jpg
The first batch of trees—including Honeylocusts, Magnolias, Lindens, Catalpas, Serviceberries, Sweetgums, London Planes, and several species of Oaks—arrived at Brooklyn Bridge Park last week. According to a press release, the trees will temporarily reside on the Pier 3 uplands while they await their final resting grounds at Piers 1 and 6, both of which are scheduled to open by the end of the year.

Wow, those are much more mature than the trees the Parks Dept. plants in front of homes.

Everything is more mature in Brooklyn Heights, including the residents.
