No Elm Tree, but a marker at least

Philip Livingston

Today, Albany’s once famous Elm Tree Corner, where Philip Livingston’s elm grew for 142 years, is graced with a bland brick facade. A tablet originally placed on the bank building on the site has survived, recognizing Philip Livingston but not his tree.

Long after this was originally posted, we wrote much, much more about this marker and the site it commemorates.
