[What you need to know to start the day: Get New York Today in your inbox.] For decades, the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey has spruced up the sign above the Holland Tunnel’s New Jersey entrance with holiday decorations: a Christmas tree and two wreaths. And for years, their placement over the letters of the tunnel’s name has driven some commuters crazy — particularly the location of the tree, which is nestled in the N of “Holland” instead of in the adjacent A that the tree more closely resembles. Now, after an online poll prompted by a viral petition that urged the Port Authority to re-deck the Holland, the tree will move. It will be shifted off the N and moved to a new home next door, over the A, the Port Authority announced on Monday.
