Parks must doublecheck locations. If feasible, will plant in spring, 2011.

In email from Parks Central Forestry office, by the end of next spring Parks plans to plant a tree in every  “plantable location,” in Kensington in area bound by Caton Avenue to the north, Cortelyou Avenue to the south, 36 St to the west and Ocean Parkway to the east. McDonald Aveue, because of MTA tracks underneath, continues to be a problem and most likely will remain treeless.
