I think the trees are considered a part of nature rather than something built
by people. A tree owner has no real control control over where the roots of
their tree grow. Under Massachusetts law, your neighbor is not liable if the
roots of a tree on their property damage your lawn, driveway, foundation or
whatever. You are however allowed to cut the portion of the the roots from
their tree that grow onto your property.
On the other hand, a tower builder has complete control over how it is built,
and it does not grow under the guidance of Mother Nature after it is installed.
