    I fervently hope that the ceremonies do not get interrupted by protesters, as has already happened at some tree-lighting ceremonies across the country.

    Let’s hope this one is off their radar. Personally, I think this is the best Christmas tree in the city, but I may be a little biased because I grew up here.

    Not necessarily off their radar, but probably beneath their notice: They prefer events attended by major news crews.

    Or places that can accommodate thousands of their ilk and inconvenience many more than that, like our East River bridges and Grand Central.

    This seems late…but the promenade tree is always up for a short time span. Maybe it doesn’t last so long given the exposure to the whipping winds, etc.

    I walked by yesterday and the tree was already lit! I thought one of the purposes of the tree lighting was to light up an unlit tree.

    What gives?

    If I recall correctly, it’s standard procedure for the tree to be lit for some days before the official lighting ceremony.
