Description
The stump in the tree well between 5 & 7 N 29th St was removed by the city per request DPW000204170 in December. The roots from that tree caused significant damage to the entire width of the brick sidewalk. This area is heavily trafficked and pedestrians regularly trip while walking on this stretch of sidewalk. Now that the stump is gone, the roots can be removed & the sidewalk repaired to eliminate the tripping hazard. See below for images.
