After the end of the world: the eerie silence of the Las Vegas Strip

The Guardian:

The Las Vegas Strip looks like the morning after the end of the world.

On a recent day in late March, the strip was full of advertisements for things that read like transmissions from another planet where the air is easier to breathe.

Most of the businesses on the Vegas Strip and on Fremont Street, the city’s old strip, shut down in mid-March, when Steve Sisolak, the Nevada governor, ordered the closure of all non-essential businesses. This is the first time the entire strip has been shut down since the JFK assassination; even the devastating mass shooting in 2017 only resulted in a partial closure.

As a photographer, I see these as remarkable photos only possible at this time in history.
