Tree Appraisal of McKeldin Mall Oaks
 
How 129 Oak Trees can be worth $3.53 Million
 
The Trunk Formula Method can be used to appraise the monetary value of trees when they are considered too large to be replaced with nursery or field grown stock (Bloch, 2000). This size consideration applies to the trees forming the double allee surrounding McKeldin Mall. The input variables for this estimation method include: Location, Species Rating, Condition, Size, and Installed Tree Cost.
