Two Minutes with Trees in Fort Tryon Park - LINDEN

Learn about the beautiful trees that provide a canopy of shade at Fort Tryon Park's highest point - Linden Terrace! Lindens also attract honey bees, have heart-shaped leaves, and samaras ("helicopters"). This Linden tree grove was created by Fort Tryon Park's design firm, The Olmsted Brothers, and was in place at the park's opening on October 12, 1935.
