On a daily walk, I saw this tree being trimmed at the intersection of Tagensvej and Norré Alle here in Copenhagen.  Regular maintenance is part of living with trees in city space. What would become ground cover in a forest, is processed with chain saws and moved quickly away on the university campus where this old tree stands. Trees in proximity of people, buildings, power lines, cars, and buses have to be maintained and all trees have a life span.
