Making way for the Liberty Tree

Demolition is underway for blighted houses at 31 and 39 N. Railroad Street in Tamaqua to make room for Liberty Tree Park. Tamaqua will receive a tree that’s descended from the last remaining “Liberty Tree.” The sapling will come from the America250PA’s Liberty Tree Project, which is meant to commemorate the nation’s 250th birthday.
