The tree is expected to arrive in Manhattan next Saturday and will be cut down on Thursday.

The tree measures 75 feet (about 23 meters) and is of the Norway Spruce type. It has been donated by the store or ‘General Store’ Daddy Al’s.

Due to Covid-19 however, the popular Christmas Tree lighting ceremony – scheduled for December 2 – will be for television only, organizers reported.

Details of how the public will enter or attend the area outside Rockefeller Center where the tree is installed once it is lit and ready to be seen is pending to be known. It is even possible that the attendance of the public to the place is not allowed.
