Great Barrington had to cut all theirs down because the dense rotting branch structure prevented the firemen from assessing buildings. They aren't real trees that have any lasting merit, not unlike GalVans approach to Hudsons Historic Buildings Inventory.<br /><br />I was recently asked by someone outside of Hudson, "what ever happened to Eric as a child to hate trees so much?" <br />Good question for his psychiatrist.Vincenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05548912912359709568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5723709701684173708.post-64575123921504656972012-10-19T15:34:48.677-04:002012-10-19T15:34:48.677-04:00GalVan doesn't "assign" anything to ...GalVan doesn't "assign" anything to CITY-that would be us. Regardless of who GalVan has bought and paid for...It's just another private non-profit. If the City wants to have a "Tree Program"-bring in up in Common Council. Enough, with this Crap.If GalVan would like to donate $,that's all it is.It dictates NOTHING TO US.I wouldn't take a cent from those creeps.Prison Alleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10059050028975347899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5723709701684173708.post-59274395927485163762012-10-19T14:12:24.712-04:002012-10-19T14:12:24.712-04:00Before the program takes off, it would be advisabl...Before the program takes off, it would be advisable for residents to discuss a comprehensive design approach to this offer. (Full disclosure: I won't be needing any trees.)<br /><br />If the offer devolves into a higgledy-pigglety tree grab, the program will be well underway before the rest of the community can exert any positive pressure on what tree species the city will be assigned.unheimlichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00204285837938988668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5723709701684173708.post-87028308378816661172012-10-19T13:56:38.143-04:002012-10-19T13:56:38.143-04:00I do not get these people,at all.

They cut down heritage trees every chance they get and now they want to start a tree planting program.Why?Does Galloway only like "new" trees?The Foundation mission statement makes a big noise about affordable housing,kicks out tenants, warehouses apt.buildings for years left in deplorable vacant condition and thier only focus is Homeless Shelters ,that do not exist,to be built in already struggling neighborhoods.All they have produced is 3 expensive rentals on Union Street.<br />They base thier foundation on Doris Duke Foundation.,and then proceed to gut and Disneyfiy the most famous National Historic native son's birthplace in Hudson.General Worth House and despite the <br />capable skill Galloway<br /> hired at a National<br /> Registered Historic Home to restore at 414 Warren,<br />Galloway insists ,without HPC<br />approval.<br />to put shiny black slate on<br />Mansard roof instead of restoring its one of its<br />most<br /> distinguishing feature of multi colored patterned slate.Galloway et al<br />have bought up many Historic Blds of importance,which immediately puts them and thier trees on the endangered list.<br />Sat.is grand opening of Martial Arts school at Register Star building<br />Galloway just bought.$100 a month "opening special" a month<br /> for kids to join.Yet the martial arts program for<br />kids at Youth center is being Cut.Why Doesn't GalVan give money to youth center,and pay professionals to plant trees and tend to the living ones.<br />I would be happy if GalVan would just sign a Norquist type commitment,to stop all future projects ,til they have completed what they have started,staying within the LAW specially HPC and NYS Building Code.Fix every sidewalk in front of everyone of their properties by Hudson Bldg,Code.and leave every existing TREE alive,some that are well over a 100 yrs old,that he hasn't cut down already.<br />on his properties.<br />Hudson will do just fine,if GalVan would quit"helping"us Just finish thier <br />own projects ,that would be helpful.<br /> Prison Alleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10059050028975347899noreply@blogger.com
