Yeah it might look nice, but it's not healthy for the tree. Couldn't they have used plastic trees?

How is it not healthy for the tree? The concrete isn't disrupting any root growth.

Doesnt bother me whatsoever.

The lime from the concrete is poisoning the ground there.

I think it would look a whole lot better without the concrete.

Yes I'm aware it's in the sidewalk. I prefer to have some trees anyway. It looks nicer, offers shade and I see nothing disturbing about it. Is it bad for the tree? I've seen trees thrive in cities, "IN" the sidewalks.

If the concrete really hurt the trees that much, I doubt you would find this style of tree planting all around the US. Just my opinion though, I think it looks nice!

I'm not being sarcastic but are we supposed to walk on the dirt then?

Plastic trees? Now that to me would be disturbing. Honestly, this stuff bugs you?
