All about the city Christmas tree:

The 34-foot blue spruce Christmas tree was donated by city resident Richard Greenwalt of Lansing Avenue.

Diamond Steel Construction volunteered its equipment and employees, including Marty Martin, to help the city’s Department of Parks and Recreation in removing and erecting the tree in downtown Central Square.

The Christmas tree lighting will be part of Youngstown’s 2011 Holiday Parade and Festival, which begins at 1 p.m. Dec. 3 at 20 Federal Place.

The holiday parade begins at 3 p.m. on Federal Street. The tree lighting will be after the parade.
