A number of years back, the Chateaufort Coop, on the non-famous architect side of Lafayette Park, lost several of its trees. Shortly afterward, they were replaced with two oak trees. I called the then president of that coop to compliment them for planting oaks. His response, "What makes it even more significant is that the members of the landscape committee are all 65+ years old." Chateaufort is just that kind of place.
