Sad day at Tent City
Yesterday was a sad day at Tent City, Lakewood, as residents dismantled about 15 structures they used to shield them from the elements. The removal of those structures, which served as home for them, was part of an agreement between Tent City leaders and Lakewood Township.
These two photos show the chapel about 3 months ago. It was taken down to satisfy the court order.
Hart Sastrowardoyo wrote an excellent article that appears in today's Asbury Park Press and Tom Costello captured the images in a photo essay. To read the story click here and to view the photos click here .
