tree in the Rideout area.
The eastern Cottonwood is growing in an alley between Mascott and Regina Avenues and is believed to be one of the largest trees of its kind in the province.
The cottonwood is over 300 years old and some residents in the neighborhood
are concerned about its future.
The Heritage Committee says while buildings can and have been designated
natural landscapes haven't received similar treatment yet.
Board members are now looking at options for protecting the tree.
