Magnolia
Magnolia soulangiana
A neighbour saved this magnolia, located on West 60th St., from being cut down as the property was being redeveloped. The night before the bulldozers were to move in, she put up a sign reading "this tree is very special." She said it made her feel good to know that one less tree had been pulled down.
