Ash Trees in Syracuse New York

The first Emerald Ash Borers were found in Syracuse in 2013.  Ash Trees around town have been been dying since.  This summer they are dying in our neighborhood, Lyncourt.  So far, I have not seen any cut down here, but as the summer goes on, we will see trees replaced with new young trees.


I read that in the 50s and 60's, as Elm trees died from Dutch Elm Disease, they were replaced extensively by Ash.
