There’s lots of holiday happenings in Dyker Heights
Dyker Heights is famous the world over for the gigantic Christmas decorations gracing the front lawns of local homeowners and the crowds of tourists who flock to the neighborhood each December to the bright lights.
But the community also plays host other holiday happenings that are smaller in scale but are just as heartfelt.
On Friday, Dec. 8, the 13th Avenue Merchants Association is holding its annual Christmas tree-lighting ceremony. The ceremony, which is also sponsored by Investors Bank, will take place on 13th Avenue between 74th Street and Bay Ridge Parkway, starting at 7 p.m.
