Developer in our town is redeveloping a parcel that used to be a Catholic school. The developer wanted to remove the tree because it was in the way, but a lot of people in town protested . I guess now everyone is happy?

Won’t most of the tree grow back after construction finishes? I’ve seen trees severely cut back and after a couple years it’s almost impossible to tell.
It's a silver beach. They are usually planted in front of grand estates and after 100 years, they have a huge crown and massive trunk. There's no way this is coming back.
This tree is dead. The roots are too big since they were sized for the full crown and they will rot. Source: i like trees
That hella depends on the kind of tree. Just had a 9 meter hazelnut tree in my back yard cut down to about one meter. Not a leaf left on the thing. Couple months later and it's already back to two meters with a lot of leaves on it. it's expected to be back to about 6 meters next year.
Try that with e.g. an oak though and it'll not go as well.
Not exactly true. A couple of trees got chopped down in the park just in the other side of my fence. New trees starting sprouting all over my lawn from the root. I left a couple grow in and they've been growing at least a couple feet each year.

That depends on tree species and damage.
Willow tree would probably survive that without a problem, most other trees won't. Some could be saved with appropriate protective measures, like trimming the roots.
It will take literally decades to grow back to its old glory.
Besides, given how poorly the construction workers treated the tree so far, I guess they won't act gently in the soil and probably damage roots or compress the ground too much.
Flip, I've been cutting down a willow in my front yard annually. Each year it seems to grow back about twice as fast. I enjoy our little game.
