Atlantic City: Yesterday we told you that the casinos were shutting down for the fifth time in NJ history. We weren’t kidding as everything is closed today in the gambling resort town. These pictures were taken this afternoon and show how eerily desolate the city has become. All casinos will remain closed for at least two weeks, but a definite reopening date will have to be cleared by the governor and the Division of Gaming Enforcement. For now, you can legally gamble online as long as you’re physically present in NJ.
Pacific Avenue between Caesars and the old Trump Plaza devoid of vehicles.
Entrance to the Tropicana is absolutely closed with barriers.
A few residents walk down the boulevard with only one vehicle on the road.
Lots of empty beds there now. Just a thought.

I’m very disappointed that the casinos in AC closed, but I understand it’s for the public’s safety and prevention. I had to cancel my night stay at the Tropicana in AC for Sunday night.
They should turn the hotels into hospitals if needed.
