Old Mill District cuts down dying trees, but new ones are on the way

People driving down by the Old Mill District may have seen it. The trees lining SW Columbia Street right off of SW Bond Street have been cut down.

The Old Mill said the Mountain Ash trees were failing and likely to die, so they were cut down. They’ll be replaced with Armstrong Maple trees.
