As far as the trees being there now - I imagine that there were none when this tower and wall were built.
What is the history of this land? Anyone know? There is history that has been discussed here before regarding Govenors Island itself.
I have driven through the area and cannot see any other structure relating to the tower or wall.

Good questions, I wonder if this was part of a house or other structure. The plot thickens!
