Putting it in that space would give WB Kids the weenie it needs, and would not have blocked the thoroughfare (though if it created pinch points i'm sure part of the design would have involved path widening), but I whole heartedly agree that the loss of that tree would have been devastating, so i'm glad it isn't going there...
I'm glad the parks are moving away from "plain green bushes" wraps to something themed to the area - it's a really nice touch when temp fencing is used. It would be nicer if they did proper hoarding like many overseas parks do, but that takes more time and money that ultimately is only about aesthetics, so customised wraps will do just fine! (y)
