- Coral Gables Named Tree City USA For The 27th Consecutive YearMay 11, 2012

The Arbor Day Foundation has named the City of Coral Gables as a Tree City USA community for its commitment to urban forestry. It is the 27th consecutive year Coral Gables has earned this national honor from the Arbor Foundation, the nation’s largest non-profit organization dedicated to planting trees.

The Tree City USA program is sponsored by the Arbor Foundation in cooperation with the National Association of State Foresters and the USDA Forest Service. Coral Gables has met the standards to become a Tree City USA and is nationally known for its lush canopy and beautiful landscaping. In the past year alone, approximately 800 new trees have been planted in key public locations such as Segovia Street, Ponce de Leon Boulevard and Alhambra Circle, enhancing the beauty of our neighborhoods and the downtown area. The trees not only promote a healthier community by filtering the air we breathe, they also continue to enhance the City’s character and aesthetic experience.
