No replies yet, I guess I'll have to find a tree-recognizing-app for this one

Here's a closeup of some leaves:

And, thanks to the Google street view archive, a picture of the tree in better days:

Red Robin (Photinia x fraseri) is in the Rose family (Rosaceae). It is a hybrid of Photinia glabra (syn: P. serrulata) and Photinia serratifolia. Both parent species are native to various parts of eastern and southern Asia, as wel as Japan, Taiwan and the Philippines.

Thanks for the extra info.

I was not able to rescue that one empty half of the tree, unfortunately :-(

Yes, it was curious the way the tree lived longer on the side facing the building. More often that is the side that will look worse due to less light.
