Save The Market Entrance is not interested in pursuing a legal strategy against the city, but the organization said the Pike Street cherry trees mean a lot to countless people who won’t fully realize what’s been lost until the trees are gone for good.

“Construction on this block will begin on March 6, and the tree removal [will] likely be one of the early steps in construction,” according to an email from Lauren Stensland of, a private non-profit working to redevelop the waterfront and adjacent areas of downtown Seattle. “SDOT [Seattle Department of Transportation] has involved the community on the development of the new streetscape on this block,” Stensland wrote. “There was a desire for trees with a longer lifespan that will eventually arch over the street below and frame sightlines to the Pike Place Market sign and clock and not block the existing pedestrian lighting.”Save The Market Entrance“Those trees line the entrance to Pike Place Market,” Danner told KIRO Newsradio early Monday morning.
