Comments: The parcel where this tree resides was densely developed into studio apartments in 2013-2014, leaving the tree with a paltry soil volume between the sidewalk and foundation. This disturbance stressed the tree and a Google Street View photo from September 2019 shows the crown almost entirely dead. Was a former state champion and largest specimen of the species ever documented by the program. Original measurements in 1991 were 85", 66', 29', 158 points.
