Yep, you got it. Thuja plicata--Western Red Cedar, an "arborvitae" and the only other member of the genus native to North America besudes the Eastern White Cedar ("Arborvitae").
I thought I'd post this one because somebody (not me) had pruned them this way for a long time. I thought it showed a feature of its branching habit that other arborists and landscapers might take advantage of, namely, its capacity to form a dense hedgerow wall. This kind of training has to begin early, obviously, but produces a lush surface with numerous ramifications.
