Our University Union will be adding on outdoor seating this summer, and before the project can begin, they needed to remove some trees. Some were cut down, but others were physically dug up/extracted and replanted in the Peace Quad. I had a birds eye view (literally) of the whole process.

This video starts with some trees that were taken down, and then the others as they were extracted with a HUGE CLAW machine and replanted. It’s about 19 minutes long with no sound (believe me you DID NOT want to hear my co-workers talking through this whole process).
