Maack Cherry Planting on Uritskogo Street: A Look at the Current Situation

The street of Uritskogo in Novo-Sibirsk is still catching up on some minor issues, thanks to a bit of mishap during the Maack cherry planting process. City officials have been working to resolve these issues and bring the street back up to speed.

Maxim Kudryavtsev, the Mayor of Novo-Sibirsk, held an operational meeting on April 29 to discuss some problematic road and sidewalk sections on Uritskogo Street. During the meeting, he questioned Central District Head Vladimir Zakhаrov about dialogue with residents and a timeline to make needed improvements.

Zakhаrov emphasized that there's an ongoing dialog with residents, using various channels, including social media. He mentioned that there were complaints about two specific aspects - windblown litter on lawns and sidewalk maintenance. Good news for residents: these issues have been resolved, with daily cleanings ensuring street compliances with norms.

However, the presence of two pits - one on the sidewalk and another on the lawn - still remains. The pit on the sidewalk is around a manhole, and RSE (the owner) will address this issue by the end of the week. The smaller pit, located where the Maack cherry was planted and lawns were made, is due to poor compaction. Thanks to our handy enrichment insights, we know that possible remedies for such compaction issues might include aeration, mulching, or planting hardier varieties suited to urban stress.

Back in the fall of last year, a controversy arose in Novo-Sibirsk when over 200 mature trees, including valuable species like ash, elm, cedar, and pine, were cut down on Uritskogo Street without proper permits. This wasn't just an environmental disaster, but an aesthetic one, too, as the tree-lined street is considered a beautiful example of harmonious architecture and historical greenery. The former Vice-Mayor of Novosibirsk, Anna Terekhova, noted that many of these old trees were planted over 50 years ago, and their removal was presumably making it impossible to replace them with new ones.

Residents took action, filing a complaint with the prosecutor's office, demanding the protection of green spaces and a favorable natural environment. Despite the city administration arranging a meeting with residents, officials are apparently still receiving uncomfortable questions about the recent "greening" of Uritsky Street and other areas in the city.

As for the Maack cherry tree, residents may be wondering if this new tree will thrive and help beautify the street as planned. With a bit of care and attention, we hope it will. If they encounter challenges, here are a few recommended solutions for poor compaction issues: aeration, mulching, or planting hardier varieties suited to urban stress.
