Holiday windows in New York: Three years

For retailers in the US, the world’s largest consumer market, 25 percent of annual sales happen during the holiday season. Many stores in New York have Holiday Season Window Displays. Festive windows   influence 24 percent of holiday purchases. Since  Macy's inaugurated the tradition in 1883, the setups grow more dazzling with each passing year.
