Is the change for the better? Personally I think it looks far nicer in the picture attached????

I think you are being sentimental and nostalgic. O’Connell Street is far better now with the new paving, tree planting etc….When the newer trees mature a bit, the same effect will be achieved, but with a coherent and much better urban design. if ye look at that photo, those leafless gnarwled trees are haphazardly planted.

Never let nostalgia get in the way folks, else we’ll have nelson back on the pillar.
