An Austin resident released a short film on the Internet Wednesday documenting the removal of several dozen native pecan trees to make room for a condominium on Barton Springs Road.

In the short film "At What Cost?," 28-year-old Tom Suhler documents the "death" of an 89-year-old native pecan tree that once stood in the Shady Grove RV Park in an area that became a parking lot for local restaurant Austin Java.
