Could this city/forest urban landscape design I visualize ever become workable?

It’s really simple. Picture a city like New York built in the Amazon rainforest. No cars or buses. Only sidewalks with people. The rest, tall trees and any animal that might survive this fusion of city and forest. All transportation is by subway train, way below the level of tree roots. Plus helicopters in rooftops.

You look outside your office window and see giant trees towering above you. Some trees have bridges on it, like those Ewok trees in Star Wars. Is this city forest I envision, if humans decide to create one really feasible?
