Rockefeller Center will commemorate its 90th Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony Wednesday night at 8 p.m. ET. The decades-long holiday tradition dates back to 1931, in the midst of the Great Depression.
According to the Rockefeller Center website, Rockefeller Center workers at the time put their money together to buy a 20-foot tall Balsam Fir, adorned with garlands that were handmade by the workers' families, in hopes of lifting Christmas spirits.
