Glen Park Tree Locations
Glen Park has a LOT of red flowering gum trees, especially on Bosworth and Chenery (including one of the City's best at 890 Chenery, very close to one of the City's best weeping bottlebrush trees, at 870 Chenery). Glen Park is very well-treed, which is a testament to the community spirit and environmental feelings of the residents of this "village within a city".
