The storm toppled at least 36 80- to 100-foot eucalyptus trees last Thursday in Balboa Park, and this week, another is tagged for removal.
"Following the downed tree events from last week, the city is inspecting trees in Balboa and other parks for their health and structural integrity," city spokesman Anthony Santacroce told NBC 7 on Tuesday.
Santacroce said the eucalyptus tagged for removal due to the storm was the first such"determination" the city had made to proactively take down one of the park's mature trees. It's not yet known if any of the other mighty giants will be other tagged for removal, too.
The city of San Diego later closed the 1,200-acre park after dozens of trees were blown down in and around the area, blocking streets and walkways.
