Some residents are fighting back after city council members voted to remove the large ficus trees lining the streets of Uptown Whittier. The mature ficus trees were planted in the 1960s and provide a canopy of shade that some say defines the look and feel of the uptown district.
City officials approved a $20 million redesign project that would revitalize a three-block stretch of the commercial district. The plan calls for the removal of the large ficus trees to be replaced with smaller ones. The move has prompted outrage from some residents who believe the trees’ removal will erase the district’s innate charm and appeal while city officials say the invasive tree species is causing infrastructure damage.
