Dyker Heights Christmas

As per Beth Harpaz, Brooklyn's Dyker Heights is "an Italian-American neighborhood where proud locals cover their homes in twinkling bulbs and fill their front yards with life-size Santas and Nativity scenes" (Tourists Loving Christmas Lights Tour of Brooklyn, Times of Trenton, 12/6/12).  Christmas lighting on several blocks is unlike anything elsewhere. Harpaz talked of tourists coming "from around the world (Australia, Japan, Holland, England, Northern Ireland) and the country (Utah, Texas, California, Louisiana, Missouri, Virginia, Florida, New York and New Jersey)."
