Oriental Sycamore pruned from within. Note the pollarded sycamores across the street. (Marin Ave. between Alameda and Fresno Ave.). A change of administration in the local park department brought about a ceasation of the old top pruning. The south side of the street had already been so pruned. The new Superintendent pruned those on the north side according to saner lines. Feb. 1928. E. Fritz
