It's the first time in nearly 70 years that a Massachusetts tree has been selected. The 74-foot-tall, 43-foot-diameter, 11-ton tree is being donated by the Albert family.
The tree will be brought to Manhattan by flatbed truck and is expected to arrive in New York City this Saturday, where it will be lit during the annual "Christmas in Rockefeller Center" special on Wednesday, Dec. 4, airing on NBC10 Boston.
