Most trees in buffer strips-one large island
Trees are located primarily in the buffer strips surrounding this parking lot, not in islands. There is only one island (left side) and it is quite large.
Large parking lot islands and wide buffer strips support large trees. Small parking lot islands typically support only small trees and they are not as vigorous as trees in larger spaces. An added advantage of installing only a few islands is easy snow removal
