Take a look at the house at the northern end of Silver Oak Ave and you'll see where the magnolia has been added to the three old palm trees on an already over crowded lawn.
It may be that they have a set of plans for the new properties on empty lots in the new areas to the south and are applying those same standards to the redeveloped properties in the historic district. Many of the lots up here already have plenty of mature trees and do not need any added.

That may be the issue, right there. Hadn't thought of it. At any rate, We G's hope your new home brings as much joy as ours has.
