The Ghetto

[Riggs]

Did you ever work in an alley in a city ghetto ? Start taking a tree down and you'll see how many people don't have a job in the city . These few shots are from last week , Black Oak in the middle of an alley . Had to bring my camera because of all the damage before we started .

I hear ya RIGG's I was part of a 4 man crew that went to ave A in NYC to a Village apartment. When we got to the place we found out that the 3 Sumac tree's were in the back court yard of the building. We had to go through the bottom floor apt get the tree's down in a space no bigger than my bathroom and cut all the brush up into little peices and carry it through the apt to the street where the chipper was. I wish I had pictures of not just the job but of the NewYorker's faces when we started chipping brush!

Alley lot, utilites going every direction, 50 year old picket fence that will crumble if you touch it and every tree is over 5 buildings. Broken glass everywhere and you need a gear guard on the vehicals.
