Dyker Heights in Bklyn always makes the news. There's neighborhoods in Staten Island that go all out as well. In the Bronx, I think you can see the house on Pelham Pkwy from space, lol!! I remember hwen they had just a few dolls, lights & decorations on their front lawn back in the 70's. The houses all around Lake Carmel in Putnam County decorate like crazy too.

Check dyker heights in Brooklyn! You will be so amazed! Park the car and take a walk in the neighborhood

Two years ago, I went to Dyker Heights with my husband to see the Christmas decorations at night. Fantastic! Then we walked back to the subway (it was a long walk) and stopped at an incredible diner. A great evening.

Have you guys forgotten about the bronx's ''The Christmas House" they work on this all year. Although they may get a little crazy,its worth it. Its on Westervelt avenue in the neighborhood of pelham parkway. I visit my cousin who lives on that street and during december you cannot sleep at night! Have everything from reindeer to movie stars. Thats not a bad tradition by the way.

I remember many years a friend took me to see nicely decorated homes in the area of Corona in Queens (NYC).
