As of Saturday, the holiday season is officially underway in New York City after the iconic Rockefeller Center Christmas tree arrived in the Big Apple Saturday after a 200-mile trek.
Despite light rain on Saturday, approximately 100 people watched the 82-foot Norway spruce be hoisted into place in Rockefeller Plaza Saturday afternoon.
The tree is approximately 90 years old and came from Queensbury, NY.
