Here in the Mid-Atlantic, between the sidwalk and street in front of our
suburban sub-division house we have a a 4' wide strip of grass. I'd
like to plant maybe 3 trees on the strip. I am looking for some
recommendations for trees that will grow to a medium size, something
perhaps a bit smaller than a Bradford Pear. I'd also prefer something
that doesn't drop fruit.

I appreciate any recommendations.
