Despite originally insisting that the deteriorating specimen would not be replaced, officials cut its remains down early this week.

The dead tree is survived by Rhode Island's new statehouse Christmas tree, which, per the Providence Journal, was installed late Monday afternoon.

May it stay intact until Dec. 25.
