Woodhaven residents not happy with holiday tree replacement
Queens Courier

A tree grows in Woodhaven—but residents say it’s the wrong one. They are barking mad that the Parks Dept. replaced the nearly 30-year-old Woodhaven holiday tree, which was downed by Sandy, with a deciduous “street tree.” “We had expected that a suitable replacement would be planted in place of our lost holiday tree,” said Alex Blenkinsopp, communications director for the WRBA.
