I mean, just look at it.

Back in my home town, they built something that was clearly a cell tower, then just ... Essentially glued a few fake pine tree branches to it.

They didn't even bother to make the tower look vaguely trunk-like. It's still matte grey and you can clearly see the antennae attached to the top. When I say "a few fake pine tree branches," I'm not exaggerating; it's been a few years so I don't remember precisely, but it's no more than five throughout the entire height of a cell tower. Mostly clustered together.

    Having seen the political side of this: the local city council probably had some asshole NIMBYS that tired to block the tower from being built. Then AT&T showed up to a meeting and said we will build this by right but if you give us a beautification budget we will use it. Then the city council rightly didn’t give a fuck and gave them the bare minimum dollars that made the 5G NIMBYS fuck off and AT&T bought $200 of plastic Christmas tree to glue into the tower.
