We here at BeehiveHairdresser are very much pro-life when it comes to trees. Trees purify the air and create shade for other living things to live happily under. However, when a small tree starts growing along the F train at 4th Avenue station, especially when the station was just rehabilitated as part of a $275.5 million rehabilitation project to fix the Culver Viaduct, we question the validity of the tree’s life.

A tree is growing directly between the concrete and steel that is holding the station up and will only make the station less structurally sound if it is allowed to grow larger.

So, um… MTA folks. We know that you are incredibly busy running the massive transit system in and around New York City, but could you please send someone out to the Manhattan bound tracks of the F & G subway line at 4th Avenue/9th Street to remove the tree so that we didn’t just spend $275.5 million to have a tree make the subway structurally unsound. Thanks in advance!
