Soferdig, it only becomes an allee' (as in the famous Louisiana plantation Oak Alley) when it has trees on both sides and perhaps protecting it on top. Otherwise it is just a plain old driveway. I am such a traditionalist that I try to hang on to the old terms and phrases.
This is a photo of some of our oldest oaks in New Orleans in City Park, which has over 1,000 live oaks. They took a beating in the hurricane and sat in water for almost three weeks but they survived.
