Syracuse Mayor Ben Walsh announced for the first time that the City of Syracuse will use an artificial/fake Christmas tree for the city’s Christmas tree located in Clinton Square. Syracuse’s artificial tree is four stories tall. Mayor Walsh cites the cost savings as the main reason. Having an artificial Christmas tree will save the City of Syracuse $37,000 per year. These costs stem from the labor required to cut down and transport a real tree. For context, the City of Syracuse’s total budget for fiscal year 2019 was $252.5 million. Opponents of an artificial Christmas tree cite that having a real tree is a decades-old tradition. Proponents argue the artificial tree is a new tradition. Syracuse is in a prime location for evergreens leading some to wonder why Syracuse would have a fake tree. With an artificial Christmas tree, Syracuse was now able to hang ornaments on the tree. According to a Syraucse.com poll, 55.1% of respondents voted that the fake tree is fine and 44.9% voted that real trees are better. One major city in the Northeast that has an artificial tree is Pittsburgh, PA.
