[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have never seen a proposal that suggests touching or harming any one of those trees. Please stop with the Alternative Facts.[/quote] Of course DC doesn't suggest harming any trees at Hearst Park, but they've tried to stay away from discussing tradeoffs as much as possible. One of the proposals (which DPR admitted is not to scale) shows the pool where one of the tennis courts is. (How a pool, pool house, surrounding pool deck and equipment fit on the footprint of one tennis court is beyond comprehension, but again DPR's drawings do not represent accurate scale). The tennis courts sit under the canopy/drip line of a number of large oaks. Any excavation (which for a pool is pretty deep) in the vicinity of the tennis courts will impact the root structure of the large trees, which would have to come down. [/quote]
