Did you know the country’s first public Christmas tree was put up in Madison Square Park? Or that the world’s largest menorah is in Grand Army Plaza? Join tour guide and 6sqft managing editor Dana Schulz for a look at holiday history in New York City, from the story of how Santa was “born” in New York by a group of writers and illustrators to the tale of the first, Depression-era tree that went up in Rockefeller Center.
