I really do like the Katsura tree - it seems to be tolerant of various conditions, easy to grow and used as a street tree in the next block from me. The small leaves are so neatly arranged on the stems and are full on the inside as well as the outside of the tree. I say, "go for it", but remember to amend the soil a bit when you plant it. The tree is planted in the parking lot of the Seattle Arboretum and my experience is that it takes some time for it to really reach "large" status and it stays a nice manageable size for decades.
