Street Tree Planting

Just in time for Earth Day, I stumbled across an unusual feature of the New York City Parks Department. Apparently the department will plant a tree in front of any building in any borough at the request of the New York–based owner. All he/she has to do is fill out this form. You can’t pick the type of tree, but the service, provided by the NYC Parks Forester, is free of charge. There’s even a Street Tree Planting office. Isn't spring grand?
