Where is the Grand Army Plaza Christmas Tree?

Just went there last night to show off my favorite Christmas tree in NYC and its no where to be found. Not a single Christmas decoration in sight.

Anyone know why its not up this year or when its going up?

???

yesterday it was the middle of the arch....

I blame the Grinch!

It's not the cool tree with the changing lights I've seen in the past that I think may have just been a metal frame. What I've seen this year is a smaller, def. real tree that is sitting outside of the arch. A similar tree and menorah are at the opposite corner of the park as well, at PPSW and Parkside.

I remember reading that the tree wasn't stored properly. Went up last year to take a close look as I remembered how wonder struck I was by the hallucinogenic effects of the year before.

Last year's performance was a bit off. Also remember reading that the artist who created the tree wasn't too happy and the city had no idea how to repair, etc.

I always wondered about this...was it a one-time thing?

I think it had a two-year lifespan. The second year that I walked up to get a close up...something was amiss. I think it lost one of its colorways too.

how disappointing - it was such a beautiful look to have the modern tree in the historic arch. I hope they bring it back one day.

yeah, i loved that tree too. the current one is good, but that one was special.
