This tree lined street has a 72-foot wide right-of-way and a center median with trees. The median may have turf or perennials and shrubs depending on the surrounding context. Parkways at the entrance to a neighborhood or district are logical places for upgrading the median plantings to perennials and shrubs with trees. In special cases, the median may be depressed and function as a stormwater amenity. In this case, upgraded plantings are advised.
