To the editor:

When the Rosen brothers were preparing what is now Cape Coral in the 1950s, they bulldozed all the trees… even the one on Pelican, under which was found a giant skeleton, according to one history book.

Now comes city government doing the same a second time in Jaycee Park.

All the trees are gone, as one can see in the aerial photo on the city Facebook page that I have asked to be shared here.
