By the numbers: The world's largest gingerbread village in NYC
Briefly

"It's the easiest it's ever been to get up close to the display," Lovitch tells Time Out New York. "We tried to pay homage to the rich culture history that abounds in this neighborhood. We did everything we could to try to bring New York City into GingerBread Lane."
Each year, Lovitch combines his experience as a chef and baker to create GingerBread Village. It's a year-long process during which he turns the basement of his Queens home into a workshop packed with gingerbread creations on every imaginable surface.
This year, his display has found a home in Columbus Circle where you can walk through shelf after shelf of his artistry, admiring the details at eye level. Just remember: Look and don't touch!
By the fall of each year, he's working 100-hour weeks to finish every intricate detail. He shops for expired candies each holiday season to transform inedible treats into a visual spectacle.
