The street-smart style of Serendipity in Tompkins Square Park



Back in June, we saw the arrival of "Serendipity," the life-sized sculpture of Christopher Gamble's silhouette in Tompkins Square Park. The silhouette is in honor of Gamble, who was homeless for nearly 28 years. Fanny AlliƩ's creation will be in the Park through November.

And throughout the summer, someone saw fit to add a few accessories to the sculpture, from the always dashing caution-tape scarf...



...to the Duct tape waistband-headband combo...



... to the Master Lock choker...
