Description

The cut-out area for a street tree is about 3 inches lower than the sidewalk --- my husband tripped and fell very hard at this location last week. This is an EXCEPTIONALLY BUSY pedestrian area, and we have heard that people trip here almost daily.

It helps a lot that Baja Taqueria puts out a sandwich board during their open hours -- as this somewhat blocks off this tripping point.

This side of Piedmont Avenue has a very narrow sidewalk, and it would be good to also inspect the tree planting holes headed down the street towards Peets Coffee and Piedmont Grocery etc.

Thank you!
