Chicago Christmas decorations show the cheerful, creative side of the city

It’s that time of the year — when the temperature goes down and the holiday lights go up.

People from all over hit Chicago’s downtown for a glimpse of the Christmas tree in Millennium Park or the horns and window displays at Macy’s.

But every Chicagoan knows that there’s just as much holiday magic to be found in the city’s neighborhoods, where elaborate spooky decorations have been swapped for bright and colorful holiday displays.

This year, Sun-Times photographers visited several neighborhoods and caught some yuletide setups outside homes, where the holiday spirit is strong. You can swipe through these neighborhood galleries below.

This collection of photos will grow, so check back as we add more.
