I was watching Morning Joe and they went to this live shot to segway into a commercial.
Turns out they do it by building an elaborate scaffolding around it.
Must be the most expensive Christmas tree there is.

My son got certified on erecting  scaffolding a few years ago.  Pretty complex and it pays very good.  Not for me, it scares the hell out of me.  I hate to walk on it, might as well build it.  I wonder how much that bit of scaffolding cost to set up.  New York Union scale would be pretty high, I would think. https://comptroller.nyc.gov/wp-content/uploads/documents/220-schedule2013-2014.pdf

From your link it looks like all those workers are being paid about $30-40/hr.
So decorating that tree probably costs a fortune.  lol
