After the Storm

Posted by on August 26, 2009 · Leave a Comment 

A Parks Department worker uses a chainsaw to remove a broken limb from one of the many trees along Riverside Drive that were damaged during the “microburst” storm that struck the Upper West Side on Aug. 18. Riverside Park was also hit hard, losing approximately 65 trees in wind gusts of up to 70 miles an hour. To view more photos of the damage and cleanup, visit our photo gallery.
