Gingerbread Houses p2

 

This year’s display of gingerbread houses at the Museum of the City of New York is wrapping up today, so I thought I’d post a second set of photos.


I’m not sure why someone decided to build a power plant, but it does have some cool structures.


Could anything be more NYC than Santa stuck in traffic on the Brooklyn bridge?


Maybe Broadway dancers?


The Bronx Botanical Garden is a favorite of course. 


 Here’s a link to the pics from this year’s Van Gogh sunflowers exhibit.

And one of their waterlilies.

But probably what hit me hardest was this one of the Christopher Street subway station complete with homeless person.  Sadly, I have often seen them at this stop.


The Westside tennis club in Forest Hills is another NYC classic.


And you can never go wrong with a lighthouse.


But this Santa caught my eye because it reminded me of the window display I did for the bookstore at Northeastern while I was in graduate school.  Someone asked me if I could make Santa Black and I said “Sure.”  (He is a fictional character after all. 😉)


All in all, I enjoyed the exhibit so much, that I am thinking about going again next year if the stars properly align.  Fingers crossed.


Here’s the link to the first set…

Enjoy!

  1. They all look great, and rather tasty. However, at this stage of my life, with the Gi-normous list of foods that I shouldn't eat, (according to the doctor [and Mona]), I can merely dream about consuming them.
