This is a sweet gum and I have others around that look like this and even worse. Is this some kind of fungus or is this normal. Some of them have gray bumps all over that looks like warts.

Looks like wings of the non maxi pad variety.

Liquidamber styraciflua.. Looks normal to me.

The young branch looks like it's developing the bark characteristic of said tree

Young styraciflua are prone to that wingy/corky growth. I just wish they'd keep it as they got older!
