A woman in the Hill District's Crawford-Roberts community is donating a spruce tree to the city. Officials will cut the tree down on Saturday and load it onto a truck to be taken to the City-County Building.

Some roads will be closed Saturday morning as the tree makes its journey.

Our Forestry Division is happy to introduce #Pittsburgh to its official 2020 Christmas Tree!

This spruce, donated by Ms. Lee from the Hill District's Crawford-Roberts, is the 105th to grace the City-County Building. It'll be transported on Saturday! More: https://t.co/xhprZjsbUd pic.twitter.com/hEyz5bKFQX
