Back in December, Albany’s city forester posted a sign announcing the planned felling of a large pine in the 200 block of southeast Harrison Street. The century-old tree had become too big for its location, and now it is gone.

For the second time since just before Thankgiving I came across a yellow sign on an Albany tree. Signs like this give the neighbors notice that the tree will be felled.

This is the north end of Harrison Street in Albany’s Willamette Neighborhood. Beyond the guardrail there’s Bowman Park, but don’t try to get there this way.
