Newcastle Council says three trees in Bruce Street at Cooks Hill pose an unacceptable risk of falling during storms.
Part of the street will be closed on Tuesday as workers set about removing the two Hills Figs and Brush Box.
The large roots of the trees had to be cut during recent repairs to underground infrastructure, making them unsafe.
Council will look at planting suitable replacements as part of future plans for the street.
