Lullaby for the pop-up piano in Tompkins Square Park

Yesterday, the Sing for Hope pop-up piano ended its 18-day (or so!) residency in Tompkins Square Park. Workers came by to take the piano to its permanent new home at a school, library, community center, etc.


Or else it was stolen. In any event! It was fun while it lasted, probably. (C'mon — kidding!)

Meanwhile, we'll miss the photo opps. All photos here by Bobby Williams.

  2. It did provide for some lovely moments... According to the website, July 2 was the last day for the pianos citywide. Guess they gave us the holiday ...
