Delaware Avenue: Cleaning up the mess of dead trees from 2016’s drought-like weather.
2016 was a rough year for trees along Delaware Avenue.
The drought-like weather conditions wreaked havoc along the avenue.
By mid to late summer, numerous trees had been scorched, creating a scene right out of a Tim Burton movie.
Today, all of the dead trees are in the process of being removed.
Plus, there were even more dead trees waiting in line for lopping on the East Side, further towards Gates Circle.
I remember heading down Delaware Avenue last summer, thinking to myself how awful the drought had been, and how many of the trees were already dead or dying.
There are a lot of places in Buffalo that needs trees, but Delaware Avenue is one of the most important tree-lined streets in the city.
