Rockefeller Center is getting its annual spruce-up. The massive Rockefeller Center Christmas tree was lifted into place in the Midtown hub Saturday, marking the official start of the holiday season. A crowd swarmed the 75-foot-tall fir in the hour before the tree took its traditional spot in the well-known square, despite some early rain showers.
