Weeping Willow Tree in Central Park (7:00PM EST, Friday August 25, 2006)
Central Park Conservancy and New York City have dedicated a Weeping Willow tree to our beloved Aaliyah on the pond in central park. It is located right next to Strawberry Fields. (Please see map below.) Those who may not be able to make the trip up to Ferncliff can visit and leave flowers, notes, etc.
This Weeping Willow tree was endowed in memory of Aaliyah by her family. The tree is located on the shoreline of the Lake in the area known as Cherry Hill. This is a young tree and will grow to be a delicate, yet magnificent, tree...
