The Curtis + Rogers’s team provided an evaluation of existing street trees, from a visual/horticultural conditions. The trees where mapped, <br />identified and conditions were added to them, and areas where trees were missing were identified as possible locations for tree replacements. Over <br />38,800 trees were evaluated. Curtis + Rogers attended community meetings to seek input and present preliminary findings. Ultimately the team <br />created maps for street planting themes, and listed the trees needing immediate replacement, identified locations for new trees and recommended <br />others for further evaluation in 5 years. Over 2500 trees are being replaced. This plan enabled the City to develop a program for systematic <br />replacement of trees to ensure the longevity of the canopy – which characterizes the City Beautiful. Cost: $3,000,000 for initial implementation <br />
