Hi. This really tricky one to choose from two species Usha di and Ajinkya Ji has suggested. Sadly no cones are visible in the picture. But, I feel this tree is *Araucaria heterophylla* *(Norfolk Island Pine), quite a common *introduced* tree in North America and I got* *a *chance* to see a bunch of them in my university and this tree surely matches the* *morphology.* *Regards* *Tanay* * *
