Poison ivy growing next to sidewalk on south edge of property
Poison ivy growing next to sidewalk on south edge of property
The sidewalk plant growth gets in the way of walking at 703 W. 9th St. The yard at 712 West 8th has not been mown in months. The yard at 708 West 8th is full of invasives, and plants/ trees along the sidewalk facing west 9th are growing in the limestone block fence- Chinese Elm trees growing out of cracks in the wall.
Overgrowth of invasives along the sidewalk bordering the electric substation at Rogers and 11th.
Poison ivy growing next to sidewalk
This is an apparently abandoned house, boarded up (except basement door is open) and yard is severely overgrown, encroaching on sidewalk.
Excessive growth of weeds, including poison ivy, hanging over the retainer wall onto the sidewalk, exposing pedestrians.
This yard is all bamboo. The bamboo has grown out considerably into the street. and now some the stalks are completely parallel to the road and hang down considerably. Trucks would brush through it whenever. But cars just miss it, unless it rains when it actually is a bit dangerous hitting your car. The sidewalk in front of the house is impassable, too, with a lot of weed growth. Quite the neighborhood eyesore.
On the south side of E Cottage Grove, between numbers 714 and 712, there is poison ivy (among the other vines) on a tree on private property not too far from the sidewalk. The house in the photo is 712, but upon looking at the maps and street view, I think the tree is on the 714 property. I figure I can leave that to you to figure out officially.
On the north side of E Cottage, in the middle of number 805 (the house is to the right, a vacant area is to the left, but it's all 805) there is poison ivy on a tree on private property near the sidewalk.
East Morningside Drive. One yard on south side has had limb branch pile out for months if you can request remove. Also further down the sidewalk is impeded by overhanging limbs and would be AWESOME if you can ask they cut them.
