An Urban Tree


A nearby condo was built right along the train tracks and they were required to install this very high and thick wall to protect the condos from a possible train derailment. I was pleased to see that the inside of the wall has been decorated with a series of these trees and lots of plantings including real trees. I love the wee yellow bird on the tree.

Nice kind of mural and perhaps also a kind of soundwal.

The tree is a very attractive art piece. Couple with plants, it's very pleasing to the eye.

This tree will require no trimming or watering. Always good to add art when possible.

Hello,

The tree and bird are cute. I wonder if the wall helps any with the sounds from the trains. Take care, enjoy your day!

A minimalism at its best

...the thought of living that close rail line doesn't sound too exciting.

I like it very much too. Pat! Especially the sweet little bird. I'm sure that wall will also absorb sound from the train and make life much more peaceful for those living nearby. Good job all around
