This is eerie. I live 2 blocks off the water (Newark Bay / Passaic River) in Bayonne, NJ. While coming home from helping my dad take important stuff our of his basement I passed Newark Airport.....not a single plane there.

Then I took a walk down to the waterfront park and the water was within a foot of the walkway. A 1,000 feet across the bay there is not a single container ship and all of the intermodal containers were stacked no more than two-high. Its the living version of that old saying: "The lights are on but nobody is home".
