This aproximately 75 year old Norway spruce tree, measuring 76 foot and weighting 12 tons, made the 70-mile trip to N.Y city on a tractor-trailer from Conneticut last month.
It is decorated with 45,000 multi-colored LED lights and a 9 ½-foot-wide Swarovski star on its top.
The lighting up is part of a tradition started in 1933.
