As people partied with DJs in Washington Square Park, shortly after 10pm the event shut off the music and some people stayed to hang out in the park. There was activists giving speaches and doing mutual aid, there is no visible police presence tonight.
Note: the 10pm curfew sign was not on today!
Tompkins Square park is closed down by police, signs reads "Park Closed at 10pm".
While the park is completely empty, the streets right outside of it are packed with people.
Overheard officer say they don't see why it's necessary, that there wasn't a DJ or anything loud there tonight.
