This is what they've done to East River Park in new York City; for the past several months—even going on a year—the city has told everybody not to worry about the 1000 trees they're killing—because they'll replace these 100-year-old trees with saplings. They expect the people to believe them, too.
This is why I've left the movement to Save East River Park; I was making signs only to have them ripped down, and yelling only to have my voice drowned out by bulldozers. It's depressing; I live only a few blocks from the once-majestic park, and I've pledged to never go there again.
