The Christmas Tree is a sort of fungus that manifests in December in certain Christian-shaped countries. These trees are considered a dangerous parasite. When discovered in one's home, they must be removed as quickly as possible, but removal is not easy. First the tree must be decorated with Christmas themed decorations to destroy the roots. It must be given water for a few weeks so as to weaken its hold on the decorations. Boxes of "gifts" will appear under the christmas tree.

Tishman Speyer is replanting/re-greening the land where the tree came from and recycling all appropriate materials used during the cutting event. Upon completion of the holiday season, the tree will be milled and treated and made into lumber to be used by Habitat for Humanity.
