Brick sidewalks, flower boxes, gas lamps and other such cute accessories are just that: Accessories. They make the city a little bit prettier, but they don’t make the city. In other words, urbanity without brick and flowers is far more important to have than brick and flowers without urbanity.
Trees are more of a genuine need. Streets ought to have trees.
