The trees, again

It is still on the ugly trees saga, again.  It seems to be stuck in my system.  Some leaves have been cut, again this summer.  I don't know if it will shorten the trees lives because they don't have their tops.  Their trunks are severely mishapen.  They look sick and not well at all.

Of course, the removed leaves gives more access to the sidewalk.  Is it healthy to the trees?  Would be nice if trees could have vaccine, it could help some who have disease.  For those trees, I don't know how long they will live with those conditions.  They seems resilinent for the time being.  I wonder how long they will stay there.  For sure, they have maturity and gives good shade.  Are they at their top shape?   Seeing their trunk, I am not sure of it.

I don't know who makes decisions toward trees.  I just hope those trunks are still strong.  They are not that attractive but I just have one hope.  I hope they will be cut when it will be the time to do so.
