A Bridge To Muybridge

The new York Times recently ran a review of the current Eadweard Muybridge exhibit at the Corcoran Gallery of Art. I love the portrait below of Muybridge awkwardly cuddled up to a large Sequoia. I happened to stumble across the review, by complete coincidence, the day after I made the picture below of what I think is the girthiest tree in New York City. The Elm tree hides in plain site by a little used side entrance to the Parade Grounds in Brooklyn. Does anyone know of a tree in New York City that is wider than this British Elm?
