NYC's most famous residential display, where homeowners and hired decorating companies fill multiple blocks with installations elaborate enough to have been featured in a PBS documentary. The brightest stretch runs from 83rd to 86th Streets, and a full walk takes roughly 60 to 90 minutes; the D train to 79th Street gets you within walking distance.
