Bangalore Green Still Intact

A year and half back (Sep 2009) I had captured a Goole Maps snapshot of the green cover over Nanda Talkies Road, Jayanagar.

Now that Namma Metro work is well advanced, I took a second snapshot today:
Things could have been worse. The Metro consturction has opened up two gashes in the gree canopy over that road for two Metro stations on this stretch. Also, the tree branches that used to join overhead have been pruned ,opening up the entire stretch to the sky (you can see the thining of the gree in the middle of the road). But, by and large, all the trees still stand. Whew!

Click here to see the two snapshots side by side.
