Gingerbread House Display of Empire State Building, Chrysler, Katz’s Deli, Coney Island at Le Parker Meridien

The theme for this year’s annual gingerbread house display by Le Parker Meridien and City Harvest is “Quintessential New York.” Bakeries and restaurants such as David Burke Kitchen, NORMA’S, and Rolling Pin Productions have interpreted mini gingerbread versions of the Chrysler Building, subways cars, and Coney Island, and more. The gingerbread display is open from December 6 to January 6 in Le Parker Meridien’s atrium.
