wondering about rate of growth

Hi,
I'm new to this forum. Just wondering how long it might take for my backyard trees to form a bit more of a privacy screen. I'd love to have some privacy from the two second-story windows in the house behind us. They are very nice people, but I'd love to be able to go without curtains in our family room without feeling like we're on display.
The trees back there are a Kousa Dogwood, which is about 10-11 feet tall right now, and a multi-stem Alaska Cedar, which I'd guess is around the same or a bit taller. That's a 6-foot fence, for reference. That's obviously a birch to its right, and the tree in the center ring is a paperbark maple. (FYI...the trees in the corner look a little crowded, but there's a good 4-6 feet between them and the back fence.)
Would love to hear your thoughts/feedback!
Thanks!!!
