I'm looking for a small tree to plant in my front yard in Charles Village. I know nothing about trees. Would a dogwood work?

Probably, but your best bet is to talk to one of the local nurseries about native species and your situation. They have a lot of knowledge. There's one on Falls and Coldspring, I believe.
