Can I plant a few street trees?

We are looking at a Victorian in Bay Ridge on a great block. However, there are only a few trees on the whole street! How can this be? We are talking between 3rd and Ridge where all the other streets arount there have trees. If I buy the house I want to have a green street. Can I plant a few trees myself? I highly doubt I’m allowed to, but does anyone know what the process and if it even will work? Has anyone planted their own trees?
