A few miles from our home in Downtown Delray Beach on Atlantic Avenue , the lights will go on the 100 foot christmas tree located on the front lawn of Old School Square. The ten story – tall walk through holiday showcase holds replicas of historic city scenes, elves at work and other festive exhibits. The tree is lit with 15, 500 LED lights and topped by an impressive 18-foot lighted star. Erecting and dismantling the tree requires almost 8,000 volunteer hours, which are logged by area students, volunteers as well as City and Downtown Marketing Cooperative staff. A visit worth taking and at the same time enjoy the avenue with great restaurants, stores and people watching .
