Live music (the string band pictured)…shopping…hot chocolate…shopping…beautiful decorations…shopping…Santa…and more shopping.
Don’t miss the Stone Harbor Christmas Parade tonight at 7pm. Dress warm and claim your spot along the parade route: begins at 104th and Third Avenue; travels north to 96th Street; then 2 blocks east on 96th Street to First Avenue. Plenty of prime viewing locations.
