The annual kill-a-tree-for-no-good-reason time has begun

This tree is old. It has been around for a while; longer than any of us. So how do we reward that? We chop it down so tourists can gawk after they see the Rockettes. Boo on this one. Plus, after air-lifting this sucker out and transporting it all this way, wouldn’t it just be easier to make an enormous fake one? Hey, if they can do that with the cel towers, imagine what they can do with this sucker?
