Brooklyn's Dyker Heights is a residential neighborhood in South Brooklyn sandwiched between Bay Ridge and Bensonhurst that is known for its spectacular over-the-top Christmas light displays every year. In this pov walkthrough video from local YouTuber actionkid105, take a peek at this each block in this year's "Dyker Lights" Christmas display.

In this video I walk through the Brooklyn, NYC neighborhood of Dyker Heights starting from 13th Avenue & 83rd Street to 11th Avenue, then from 84th Street & 11th Avenue to 13th Avenue, and finally from 85th Street & 13th Avenue to 11th Avenue.
