Reply to comment by nayls142 in It's an absolute shame how common and easy it is for developers to take down huge old growth trees in the city. by Zfusco

For anyone that's actually worried about this, the tool library of philadelphia will rent you a pruning saw for like, 7$ or something.

It's the principle. Give the city a new responsibility, and before very long, we're paying more taxes and still responsible to do it ourselves

PHS will prune trees if they plant them on the block, from what I understand

They claim to but in reality don’t. Everything to maintain the tree is out of pocket

I have a street tree and after it was planted they gave me a list of professionals I could call.
