Each business can open when it is ready, and there may be a number of logistics as to why they haven't. Just because the Governor says we're open doesn't mean each business can just re-open. Some people have been furloughed or laid off and they may not be able to re-open immediately due to staffing shortages or they are still formulating a plan that makes sense for them to re-open and do so safely.

Without tourists, no museum admissions. To reopen, even on a limited schedule, you have to staff up considerably, and so you need to be able to count on a certain number of visitors.

On July 1, the pedestal of the Statue of Liberty, including the outdoor observation deck at the top was reopened. The crown remains closed at this time, but this is still some good news. Still wondering when the crown will reopen and what will have to happen before the crown reopens? https://www.nps.gov/stli/learn/news/...t%20at%2050%25.
