Michael, I think this may be Chinese pistachio as tree of heaven leaves have a bump and gland at the base of leaflets which I can't see on these leaves - were the leaves pungent smelling? Also Tree of heaven tends to spread by suckers while Chines Pistachio has a berry that can be spread by birds to isolated places.
