BOSTON (WBZ NewsRadio) — As residents continue to stay home in large numbers during the coronavirus pandemic, downtown Boston is largely empty.
WBZ NewsRadio's Karyn Regal captured scenes of a once-bustling Faneuil Hall, now quiet enough that she could hear birds singing.
The artists were gone, the kiosks were closed, and everything except Pizzeria Regina, open for takeout orders, was shuttered in the dining concourse.
"It's a ghost town," one man in the North End yelled. "It's scary."

But at Haymarket, at least, something was open—the nation's oldest open-air market.
Customers were buying produce, and the proprietor said he'd stay open as long as he can.
