Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library Beech
The two beech trees behind the Beinecke Library and across from the Law School on High Street were removed in the summer of 2015 to facilitate renovation to the Book and Snake secret society building. These trees provided shade to the Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library, the Yale Law School, and Book and Snake secret society building for at least 70 years.
