Based on the color of the wood and asphalt patch job on the Newton B. Drury Parkway, I would bet that this redwood was one of the victims of the New Year's Eve wind storm.

I stood next to it and I would estimate the diameter is about 11 feet. That's huge. Redwood National Park would have been a scary place to be that morning.
