"This row of thirteen palm trees lines the east side of Broadway between Pennington Road and Elm Street. The trees are planted about every 100 feet and rise around 60 feet. They are interspersed in some places by trees of other varieties which were added later. The Southern Pacific Railroad probably planted the palms around 1900. The row of trees contributes to the historic character of the district. Also on the site is a large live oak tree, a remnant of the days before the town was founded when the area was heavily forested."
