If you need to rent a Santa near me in New York, this is the map: five boroughs plus Nassau and Suffolk — not upstate, not New Jersey, not Connecticut, not Westchester.
Manhattan and Brooklyn
Manhattan: Upper East Side, Upper West Side, Harlem, Washington Heights, Inwood, Midtown, Murray Hill, Gramercy, Chelsea, the Flatiron District, Greenwich Village, the West Village, SoHo, Tribeca, the Lower East Side, the Financial District, Battery Park City, Hudson Yards, Roosevelt Island. Doorman buildings need a name at the desk. Walk-ups need the floor.
Brooklyn: Park Slope, Brooklyn Heights, Cobble Hill, Carroll Gardens, Boerum Hill, DUMBO, Fort Greene, Clinton Hill, Prospect Heights, Williamsburg, Greenpoint, Bay Ridge, Dyker Heights, Bensonhurst, Ditmas Park, Midwood, Marine Park, Mill Basin, Sheepshead Bay, Windsor Terrace. Stoops and brownstones are the front door. See Santa in Brooklyn when that is the pin.
Queens, the Bronx, Staten Island
Queens: Astoria, Long Island City, Sunnyside, Forest Hills, Rego Park, Kew Gardens, Bayside, Douglaston, Little Neck, Whitestone, Flushing, Fresh Meadows, Jackson Heights, Ridgewood, Middle Village, Howard Beach, the Rockaways. Long Island City is Queens. It is not Long Island. See Santa in Queens.
The Bronx: Riverdale, Pelham Bay, Throgs Neck, Morris Park, City Island. Staten Island: St. George, Great Kills, Tottenville, Todt Hill. Same phone. Same clock. Say the neighborhood. Riverdale houses need the driveway lit. City Island is a longer run; say the date early. St. George condos need a name at the desk. Tottenville and Great Kills are houses. Todt Hill dens take a tree and a seat. We do not cover Westchester from this desk even when the pin looks close. Keep the visit inside. Cold gray Decembers. Snow turns to slush.
Long Island — Nassau and Suffolk only
Nassau: Garden City, Great Neck, Manhasset, Port Washington, Rockville Centre, Massapequa, Merrick, Levittown, Hicksville, Syosset, Oyster Bay, Long Beach, Valley Stream. Suffolk: Huntington, Smithtown, Commack, Babylon, Islip. Driveways and dens. Light the house number. See Santa on Long Island. We do not book the Hudson Valley from this desk. Long Island City is still Queens. If your pin is LIC, use the Queens page. If your pin is Garden City, use Long Island. Say the town so the book stays clean.
How to say it on the call
Date, borough or town, indoor, floor or driveway, headcount. December Saturdays go first. Cold gray Decembers. Snow turns to slush. Keep him inside. Sean Michaels takes the calls. Homes, offices, schools, and photos all use this map. Traditional suit is the lower-cost option. Real beard costs more. A walk-up in Inwood, a stoop in Cobble Hill, a house in Bayside, a den in Riverdale, a condo in St. George, and a driveway in Manhasset share this phone. Say the pin. We do not guess.
