So what are good street trees?

I like Honey Locust trees because they grow quickly and the foliage still allows some light to penetrate through to the sidewalks and/or house.

I hate that people plant Bradford Pear trees. These things get top heavy very quickly and end up being lobotomized by the utilities who sheer the tops for the utility lines, etc.

Are there others like the Honey Locust that I am missing?
