Question about fenceline trees

I have seen a certain tree in the Atlanta area that people use as fenceline trees. Looks to be some sort of cedar. Can anyone tell me what kind of cedar that is? They plant them close together and they grow fast.

I believe its leland cypress. there are alot of those here too. the tall/old stands look really nice. Alot of the ones we have were screwed up b/c of the hurricanes and icestorms we've recently had. The stuff that grows naturally in the are is (eastern) Red Cedar...but thats not what you're looking for.
