Bruce Spruce Tree
Downtown Livermore, CA
This is a city landmark of sorts, and really in the heart of the city. Directly across from the towering flagpole downtown, it sits at the southeast corner of Livermore Avenue. Each corner has its attraction – Lizzie Fountain to the northwest, the Bank of Italy building, housing the town newspaper – The Independent, and the trellis Fountain, small greenbelt and flagpole to the southwest.
Throughout the year, the tree is bedecked with yellow ribbons in honor of servicemen and women in the community. Come 4th of July you’ll see the ribbons changed out from red, white and blue. And the time of year the tree takes center stage? Christmas for the Holiday Tree Lighting ceremony, and the Holiday Lights and Sounds Parade topped off by Santa’s arrival.
There are many landmarks Livermore, but this one is certainly one of the more beloved by residents and visitors alike.
