      @@heseesall25 I agree 100%. A house can be constructed in a few months. On the other hand it too nature almost 100yrs to produce that beautiful tree.

    Thank you for covering this. I wonder, did the tree survive?
    Such a shame what the city is doing. As foolish as the fools who cut down the vast majority of these trees back in the 1800’s and in the early 20th century. They did it just for money and without any love for nature.

    Save the Tree, it can't be moved or rebuilt like a house, move the crappy house, save the tree. City of Portland is brain dead.

    • @agnome3777

      Great idea! You should buy the crappy house and the lot it is on, and pay taxes on it for the next 500 years to save the tree.

      @@agnome3777 Actually they would have to pay on it for the next 3200 years because that’s how long that tree can live these trees are actually quite impressive but people need to realize you cannot plant these even remotely close to a house I see this all the time in the Portland area since these trees are not native to Oregon

    It's a beauty! At the foot of it I see you have some redwood sorrel and a live oak, too. We have a gorgeous 75 year old semperviron growing in my neighbor's yard. We love it & it smells wonderful when we are out in back.

      I hope everyone on the block plants a Redwood in their yard.. there are many videos of Guerrilla Tree Planting in parks, public places, Highway medians and on areas hard to get to.. they grow extremely fast and within 5 years can be 15-30 feet tall if they have enough water and sunlight… 2,6 even 10 feet tall a year is common…

    From Medford Oregon all the way past Everett Wa and on parts of the Columbia River you'll find some of the most magnificent Giant Sequoia Redwood trees.
    The house appears to be abandoned and boarded up. Surely something can be done to buy the house from the owner and let the city create a greenbelt or greenspace for that community or neighborhood.

      That would've been the best option is this age of worrying about climate change. Tear the house down and turn the property into a small park.

      I just looked it up.. it was poisoned 🤮.. and I don’t think it made it… really sick people.. but the Wild Fire in Kings Canyon in 23 was terrible.. because the forest are Not Managed correctly… they Stop small fires and let the dead brush build up.. thus causing an intense fire that killed them all… but the idiots blame climate change.. you can’t fire climate change… but these idiots should be fired immediately

    Save the tree and remove that shitty looking house, the tree has more value than the house. Best thing to do is start a fundraiser and buy that house and then tear it down.
