It has needles not leaves. I searched some sites and I think it is an evergreen.. I have one on each side of my garage that stand about 45 feet tall. Then they are used as privacy fencing all around the front of my property. They seem pretty common.

They look like huge marijuana buds (sorry, I smoked that stuff like 25 years ago but I still know what it looks like LOL)

A picture would help. Without a pic we can only guess.
My guess is a poplar:

If they were palm trees, you would have at least seen them on TV. But notice that the amount of detail in your description is not enough to rule out palm trees.

Can you see any branches at all, even those that don't branch out very far? Can you see any leaves? Do the veins in the leaves branch? Do the leaves have smooth edges, or lobes, or serration? Does the tree have normal tree bark? All kinds of questions like that can make a big difference in identifying the tree.

Is it possible that you're talking about Italian Cypress? They grow quite tall and narrow, forming a column-like tree. They are commonly used as windbreaks, sound-barriers, or boundary plants.

Hope this helps.
