Street trees — how commonly is a new tree planted to replace the one that’s cut down? (self.treehuggers)

At least in the US, I never seem to see a new tree show up.

Here in Germany it's quite common. I still weep inside though, because a freshly planted tree doesn't really replace a 50 or more year old tree and with the ever decreasing ground water I suspect it will have a hard time getting its roots deep enough fast enough to survive.
