Looks like a gingko. They give up their leaves in one fell swoop. It’s what they do.
It’s true! The leaves drop like rain in a single day:

It’s a gingko tree , that’s what they do. In one swift day. There is an article in the New Yorker this week exactly about this ancient tree. It releases it leave in 1 single day not because of any outside force..
That is a Ginko tree which usually loses most of its leaves in one day with or without wind!
Looks like the wind also blew the building to the left.
Paul, thats probably a pop-up Walmart
Re: “WIND BLEW THE CLOTHES RIGHT OFF THIS LOVELY FLORA”
Hmmm…looks like poor Flora is just ….
Gone With the Wind !!
but “Frankly, my dear, I don’t give a damn!”
gingko trees will lose their leaves quickly when the temps get below freezing. and, yes, very quickly. one year it was raining gingko leaves, they just fell off one at a time all day.
