Is it any maple species?

This tree in theory is a Liquidambar styraciflua, but I think the leaves seem more like some kind of maple (liquidambar leaves rather have sharp lobe tips).

Do you think it is possible? If it is so, what type of maple species it can be?

 

Think maple leaves are opposite, liquidamber alternate. Not certain how the leaves are arranged in your pics.

 

Wet in start 1800 d.c. liquidambar and acer there are in the same family ;your question have one reason....but after with osservations by botanist,the leaves (like chimera write )and the flower the different are evident ,this change the botanic family....regards alex

 

Liquidambar: Altingiaceae
Acer: Sapindaceae

The mystery plant has alternate leaves, so it isn't an Acer species. But there is more than just Liquidambar that has alternate, palmately lobed leaves like this.

 

Leaf outlines in far left panel quite typical for sweetgum.

 

There are many cultivars of L. styraciflua, some even have rounded leaves (Rotundilobum). The first pic looks like "Stared" to me, but not the others.

Thanks for your help!
