I am fairly certain that the actual tree that is here now isn't the actual first trree ever. It's a descendant. Otherwise, it would be enormous. And the tree on display is not big at all. The one in Rockefellar plaza is much, much bigger.
It's still cool to look at and is pretty at night when it's lit up. You can go and put your own ornaments on it if you want. They keep it lit all year long. The tree lives in a cute little park that overlooks where the Lehigh River and the Delaware River meet. Luckily, it was not flooded the day I was there.
You can also see New Jersey from there. Standing in Pennsylvania and laughing at how much higher their property taxes are just on the other side of the river :)
