Case Study: The Sunny Side of the Block

Two magnolia trees on the same block, one on each side of the same office building.  Both presumably planted and maintained by the same landlord.  But it's not only the Force that has a light side and a dark side.  There's also duct tape.  And (more to the point) this office building.

Southern exposure (sunny side of One Battery Park Plaza)

These pictures were taken within 5 minutes of each other, but they really look like they're months apart, don't they?
