If you can get a closeup of the foliage, we'd have a better shot.
Since it's an older landscape tree, my first guess is common juniper, but the scrub and weeds in the background look AWFULLY familiar. I'm guessing you're in the US southwest region, or adjoining regions. That could narrow it down to arid/semi-arid landscape hardy species. Certainly not any of the juniper species native to that climate/region, though.
