I'm still wondering why NBG did this. I was hoping BartThomas or someone from VA beach or Norfolk could shed some light as to why the tree was removed. There was open fields on the left, right and in front of where the tree stood. So why would they have had reason to rip it out for a playground?



Best way to find out is to contact them directly. I went to their web site and got this address for you
myra.wood@nbgs.org

I have no idea why they removed it but it could have something to do with the pine borer infestation on the east coast.
I would imagine that there would be a good reason and that they would share this reason with you when asked nicely.
