This is the tall Laurel hedge between our properties that is destined to be removed. This hedge was planted long before homes were built on what used to be farm land around here. It's going to be a real bugger to remove without damaging our retaining wall and I expect it's going to cost someone (not us) BIG bucks. See my 1987 Toyota Camry with the sunroof in the making? I no longer park it in front of our house. I now hide it in our driveway behind the house. I suspect it was bringing down property values too.
