We have a new street tree in front. NYC's standard tree pit size is now
4-1/2 x 9 feet. It is right along the curb. With nine feet along the curb
there will be people getting out of cars and into the pit.
So what ground cover can take this the best? It would seem to me that
myrtle/perrywinkle would be better than English ivy, which would be better
than pachysandra.
Other plants (e.g. spring bulbs) could be added further from the curb.
In NYC unless you first enclose that space with a heavy gauge wrought
iron fence you're wasting your time.
