Every Portland Newbie who thinks they know Portland should know about Friends of Trees, inside and out and should watch THIS video. This film was made in 2009, and now it is 2024 and we have lost more tree cover than Friends of Trees could ever have foreseen 15 years ago. This is a great short documentary. Please share it!

I did this with all of my apple trees, in addition to underground water tubes. My trees EXPLODED. But I was watering every other day, and when we were in drought, EVERY DAY. My trees were getting tons of water and sunlight. They loved it.

Yeah it kinda makes me ill that they didn't have enough common sense to leave some of those old trees. It gives you a special feeling when you see trees hundreds of years old and you know they were there when your ancestors were,but they didn't care enough to think of that is kinda sad.

This video is the biggest "Well, duh!" I've ever seen. I do like how you seem to think that people are out there recklessly killing young trees in their yard that they paid a pretty penny to plant, though-- and to be sure, they'd have to be trees that were bought and planted as any tree spontaneously growing in the yard of anyone at all who didn't already know what you're saying would never have survived to such a size but would've been killed with a weed whacker or a lawnmower when still but a sapling a few inches high.

Who convinced the city to cut down the trees to make room for cars? The auto and tire lobby probably, Now its too late. Almost everybody is addicted to the automobile. Cars destroy culture, maim and kill more people than both world wars put together, weaken our bodies and make a huge contribution to the climate change and yet we are psychologically incapable of dumping them.

One of the hurtful things that came from gentrification; we could walk all over Northeast Portland, and stop and pick all kinds of fruit. Fruit and nut trees on every block. Then they took over, and we saw those trees disappear along with families. My old house had a big beautiful Black Walnut tree. I cried when they destroyed it. They replaced with a dogwood, because they prefer the ornamental...I hate what's happened to our neighborhood. 😪
@michaelshultz15902 жыл бұрын
The people that used to live there did not take care of their homes. They did not with hard enough, and so they did not pay their bills. They did not maintain their homes, and so they looked like crap. They did not raise their children properly, and so their children brought crime. All of these things lowered the property values. This created opportunities for people that do work, pay their bills, maintain their homes, and raise their children property. The neighborhood is clean, safe, crime is reduced, and the property values go up. This raises the property values of other homes and if the people that are living in those homes do not pay their bills and maintain their properties then they will be priced out. Gentrification means improvement. You’re either part of the improvement or you’re part of the problem. What happened to your neighborhood is that the lazy and the criminal failed to take care of it. I say that as someone that has lived in inner NE Portland since 1972. I remember the pimps, ho’s, players, hustlers, robbers, rapists, murderers, and gangbangers. Now they’re in Parkrose and Reynolds.

It was a very strategic location. Due to Ross Island, the river could very in depth drastically between Ross Island and the Westside of Portland. One person wrote they could ride a horse across the river on some years. So for shipping purposes Portland was the most reliable deepest point on the Willamette a town made sense. Then it just became a competition between us and St. Helens who would be the largest town. Thank the Oregonion for winning that battle.
