Real estate giant Tishman Speyer announced Monday that this year’s Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree will come from East Greenbush, New York.
The 75-foot, 11-ton Norway Spruce, donated by the Russ family, is about 75 years old and 45 feet wide. It’s set to arrive in Manhattan next month ahead of the annual tree lighting ceremony.
The Rockefeller Center tree lighting has long been a cherished holiday tradition, drawing crowds from around the world to kick off the season in New York City.
