A decorative apple would be fine. Most don't get very big and they don't get apples to make a mess of the grass.
Either way I will probably have to have a pro come out at that point, I think it might be a little too tight for me to handle bringing it down.
Honey locust, sweet gum, katsura, zelkova, swamp white oak, buckeye, any but a soft maple. Guys got enough of them.It's a matter of what will do well in the SELP. If you have another suggestion for a good, beautiful, front yard tree that will do well there, offer it up. I used to live there. I've seen a lot of trees die there. A little too far north or a little too wet or a little too dry or whatever. Hybrid maples like the Crimson King and Autumn Blaze seem to take better and cause fewer problems to homeowners than most others and they look good doing it.
Tap a silver in May?If you're sure that you are going to have it taken down, consider tapping it to death before you do. You might as well get some syrup out of it before it dies.
In May?You can tap silver maple...there is just a LOT more water to boil off.
LOL...no!In May?

To the OP: I'd cut down the one with the rotten trunk and the other one that is dropping dead limbs.

Honestly I did not know you could tap silvers at all. Well I suppose you can tap an oak if you like but is it worth it?
There was a guy on here a while back tapping Black Walnut. Never did hear how he made out. Juglones man, juglones
