QUEEN ANNE: On August 7, Nautica Condominiums resident Derek
Delahunt was jogging through the Galer greenbeltโthe woodsy patch
on the east slope of Queen Anne Hillโwhen he noticed several
trees missing rings of bark. According to a police report, the trees
had been “girdled in an apparent effort to kill [them].” In the report,
Delahuntโs neighbor, Gerald Whelan, says he suspects someone from the neighboring Citiscape
Apartments had something to do with the girdling, as Nautica and
Citiscape have been locked in a battle over who’s responsible for
taking care of the trees.
