Tompkins Square Park Christmas Tree

Last night was the official lighting of the Tompkins Square Park Christmas tree. I didn't attend the ceremony — I was making Christmas cookies! Sources say it was a sight to behold.

This morning I passed by the tree on my way to work. It's the first time I really paid any attention to it, and what I noticed was that this tree is seriously deformed.

Another deformed tree.

What is wrong with the trees in this park?! Did some old gypsy put a curse on them?
