Ralph David Abernathy Tree Plantings

Commercial Streetscape Improvements

December 4, 2011

In 2009 the Westview Community Organization collaborated with Trees Atlanta to have Princeton Elms planted along the western side of Ralph David Abernathy Blvd near the intersections of East Ontario Ave and Inman St. The trees have made a tremendous impact on the streetscape along this commercial strip.

Since then the community has aimed to continue this streetscape beautification, such as is outlined in the Westview Master Plan, and thanks to the continued efforts of both the WCO and Trees Atlanta additional trees have been planted. More Princeton Elm’s have been added on the western side of Ralph David Abernathy Blvd, between East and West Ontario Ave; Parrotia’s (Persian Ironwood) have been planted on the eastern side of Ralph David Abernathy Blvd; and Ginkgo’s have been planted along Inman St at the intersection of Ralph David Abernathy Blvd.
