Comments:
2024 comments: Tree appears to be thriving in the vacant lot where it stands. The crown is full and there are no dead limbs. One of the two stems at the top of the tree stands at an angle, but must be strong to have survived to the current height.
2014 comments: Healthy, good condition. Low threat of loss.
Measured in 2014 by Michelle Dowling & Rudy Rutemiller at 84" trunk, 68' height, 36' crown, 161 points.
