MIDTOWN, Manhattan (WABC) -- If you're pining for the holiday season, things are looking up.

The Rockefeller Center Christmas tree is now in place. The 75-feet-tall, 45-foot-in-diameter tree arrived on Saturday morning on a trailer from East Greenbush, which is about 150 miles away in the direction of Albany.

The family that donated the tree was there for all the excitement.

The lighting of the tree will take place on December 3.
