Lincoln tree planters have set the stage once again for a spectacular autumn display. The colors in the tree canopy are at their peak and the expansive urban forest is best viewed from the tower of the Nebraska State Capitol. During public building hours the 14th floor observation decks are open when the weather permits, and even if the wind conditions or rain do not allow the decks to be open, the fall colors can still be appreciated from the windows. But hurry, the colors are at their peak and this beautiful fall can’t last much longer.
