Your picture looks like ceder, which would be a good choice IMO. They grow quickly and they're pretty thick. They make a pretty effective noise barrier.

Good eye, they are indeed cedar. Do you happen to know what type of evergreen? pine? I am talking about?

What you are probably referring to are arborvitae, and there are several different types. They hold their shape reasonably well, are less "spreading" than cedars, and require a minimum of care. The larger varieties can grow to 12+ feet in just a few short years (think 3-5) with very little spreading width wise. They are fairly dense (cedar is a denser plant) and make an excellent privacy screen.

I was thinking probably Leyland Cypress. They would work well for that application as well.
