During the COVID-19 pandemic, I took this opportunity to take photos of the abandoned City. I have never seen the city this empty before, from the Brooklyn Bridge with no pedestrians and minimal cars to Grand Central being so quiet that when I was talking to my friend, our voices echoed through the main atrium.
