New York City at 6 AM

Mid-range field recording taken on the corner of 59th St. and Columbus Ave. in Manhattan, New York.
The recording was made on a Saturday morning at about 6 AM and features flowing traffic with diverse cars, trucks and buses. Not many people are about at this hour, making for a nice, neutral backdrop for urban scenes.
Recording conducted with a Zoom H2, mics set to 90° dispersion.
