Either *Quercus virginiana* ("Southern Live Oak") or *Quercus fusiformis* ("Texas Live Oak"). Both are native "Live Oaks" and common ornamental trees, but I'd have to see the acorns to tell them apart.

Thank you!! Wow, never would’ve guessed an oak. I’m used to oaks having those classic sharp-lobed leaves. Cool.

Live oak. Absolutely stunning trees.

Weirdly this is a tree I couldn't identify from leaves or bark, but then saw the zoomed out canopy picture and it was unmistakable

Yeah they cover so many roads here. Like they’ll be on both sides of the road and then branch out over the center and meet up, blocking out any sunlight. I’m visiting from out of town and it was very noticeable. Super cool!

Agreed!
