Recommendation for shade tree/shrub between two driveways?

[WorseBeforeBetter]

I'm in Zone 7, and the space is about 11' x 12' and gets BLAZING sun (6+ hours a day). Minimum debris is a must.

Kousa Dogwoods are planted between nearby driveways, but don't get as much afternoon sun as next to my driveway.

The space is in front of a pink crape myrtle, a purple-ish barberry, and some sort of blue spreading juniper. I was thinking of a Naylor's Blue Leyland Cypress, but evidently they're hard to find in my area.

I have two Yoshino Japanese Cedars in my yard that are doing really well, but don't think they'd work because of winter winds. This driveway tree would be very exposed.

I've been all over the map researching -- European Hornbeam, Cleveland Select Pear, Little Gem Magnolia -- but can't seem to nail this down.

Any suggestions? Thanks!
