With the Georgia Aquarium, Zoo Atlanta and the Coke museum shuttered, it goes without saying that other major attractions have followed suit.

Among those confirmed: Fernbank Muserum, the National Center for Civil and Human Rights, the Children’s Museum of Atlanta and the College Hall of Fame.

As of Sunday, in a bit of a shocker, LegoLand Discovery Center at Phipps Plaza remains open. The place is typically packed with kids playing with Legos. Social distancing is impossible. Yet this is the note on the website:

To comply with local regulations LEGOLAND Discovery Center Atlanta will limit the number of guests per hour. We are continuing to follow guidance from the CDC, implementing enhanced cleaning regimes throughout the attraction, and increased cleaning and sanitizing of stations. We look forward to welcoming you soon
