Shuttered

"Madison Square Garden will be shuttered for two months."

You've probably noticed that we no longer shut down things; we shutter them.

I'm thinking maybe there is a city where the owners of stores etc. have actual shutters (maybe metal shutters) that they pull out and lock down when going to lunch. This new verb, "to shutter," had to start someplace.

Can we expect more new terms like "to stopper"? As in "The boy stoppered laughing"?
