Um, that particular street is built atop a former volcanic crag. Basically, very solid, dense rock with no soil. Ergo no trees.

Very interesting! I meant in general though

I humbly invite you to visit the fair City of Edinburgh, if you haven't already. It's one of the greenest cities there is. Trees everywhere. Except for the igneous outcrops, and the odd poorly conceived urban development.

I think you need to understand Edinburgh. This street is South Bridge. It's built entirely on raised brick arches. Again,not suited to trees. Eye-roll.

Typical blocks. Zero trees along any of the streets. (I’m talking about trees along streets not the green space flanking this area). I don’t understand

Every street looks like this. In every city in Europe

This is Princes Street Gardens. Literally the city centre. The Castle towers above it. I can hardly think of any place with more green spaces than Edinburgh.

I’m not talking about “green spaces”. I specifically said actual streets
