PHOTOS: 82-foot Christmas tree arrives at Rockefeller Center in New York City
The 82-foot Norway spruce was trucked into the city on the bed of a 115-foot trailer from the town of Queensbury — about 200 miles outside of the city — and was lifted by crane to take its place in front of Rockefeller Center,Although the New York City staple has yet to be decorated with its estimated 50,000 multi-colored lights and its Swarovski crystal star, onlookers still gathered to take pictures and admire the massive tree.
According to the ABC7NY report, the approximately 90-year-old tree was cut down on Thursday and will have its ceremonial lighting November 30. It will be on display until mid-January. The tree may only be around for less than two months, but it still attracts around 500,000 visitors during its time lighting up the Rockefeller Center,Once the holiday season is over, the 14-ton tree will be milled into lumber and given to Habitat for Humanity, which provides homes for families in need,Subscribe to push notifications
