These are photos from Innercity Meriden, Connecticut. The city is usually super crowded and busy but due to COVID-19, there has been very few people out and about. The city has become a ghost town. – Jeremy

Meridian, MS showed signs of abandonment far before the coronavirus. In the past ten years, Meridian’s population has declined by 8%. Heaps of abandoned buildings and empty stores line the streets– one abandoned hotel advertising air conditioning. The reminders of coronavirus only come from the floral shop that won’t be selling any prom flowers and a windowsill selling $25 masks. – Allison
