VERY SURE

I walk to work, so saw the buildings get torn down, then they bulldozed the smaller trees, leaving ones near the sidewalk alone. I knew this is Dallas, it would not last

Sure enough, a week or two later they came out with chainsaws and cut down about ten perfectly good trees (we're talking oaks and such). And this was about a year ago, so before last summer's drought, and the lot is still empty.
