This is a Golden Raintree. The blogger who does 66 Square Feet sent us this photo and this info: “On the corner of Congress and Court Steets, a Golden raintree (Koelreuteria paniculata) is beginning to bloom. In about a week it will be ablaze. Watch the 1957 MGM movie Raintree County for an immersion experience…” A Golden Raintree!
