I went ahead and both shutdown the old Apache on the old frontend and
started up an Nginx on it with a configuration to load a simple Site
Moved page returning 503. This can be easily changed. But it should
at least alert people that they are at the wrong place now.

server {
root /var/www/site-moved;
location / {
return 503;
}
location /floating.png {
# Allow this path.
}
error_page 503 @moved;
location @moved {
rewrite .* /sitemoved.html break;
}
}
