Hello Mark
Some people that know trees may be aware about this species and its
attributes. I have seen it planted in very difficult urban sites. It is salt
tolerant and will adjust to the space it is given. The best news of all it
is an irregular upright pyramidal. There may be naysayers here but I don't
get this out of a book but from my experience with trees.
The answer is Ginkgo biloba and nurseries usually only grow male trees.
Another thought could be Gleditsia triacanthos, definitely a rugged tree but
more horizontal than upright.

Hi Mark,
In Barrie, the Dunlop Streetscape Project was developed in consultation with
the BIA. It is Barrie's main historical downtown street. It sounds like they
faced similar challenges. I know they used Silva cells (or similar) under
the sidewalks for tree planting. The webpage with municipal contact is
below:

The Town of Whitchurch-Stouffville is looking to redevelop it's down town
core. A half kilometer of small commercial shops in a tight busy roadway. It
is the main east west access for the busiest and most populated are of the
municipality. We are looking for ways to incorporate trees in the
redevelopment. The sidewalk is 3 to 4 meters wide with a 4 lane roadway. The
outer 2 lanes are used for parking.?
There are issues with primary hydro lines on the south side.
There are issues with signage. Owners do not want signs covered.
Salt issues in the winter and snow clearing of the sidewalks.
We have Provincial bussing using double decker busses. This does not allow
for trees to overhang the road unless they are over 5 meters from grade.
I am looking for examples of other municipities that have similarities in
this type of development.?
What was done to give the trees adequate soil and habitat to survive?
What types of trees where used?
What issues did they have?
What surfaces were used around the trees?
Thank you all for your attention to this.I am looking for examples that can
be shown to the BIA group, Town Council, Staff.
