"The power to recognize trees at a glance without examining their leaves or flowers or fruit as they are seen, for example, from the car-window during a railroad journey, can only be acquired by studying them as they grow under all possible conditions over wide areas of territory. Such an attainment may not have much practical value, but once acquired it gives to the possessor a good deal of pleasure which is denied to less fortunate travelers."

You're welcome, Scott. I looked at your blogs. You spend some time far, far away from the woods, obviously. :)
Hi where can i find the list for NYC street trees (small variety) ? Thanks in advance.

You might find some helpful information on the Million Trees website. According to one of the FAQ, you can get a free street tree by working with the Million Trees program. I don't have a list of the recommended street trees, but I have posted a list of the most common NYC street trees in this Tree Notes article.
