A New York Symphony, WTC Street Vendors [Archival Audio]

Description

Tilman Reitzle had always been dazzled by the sights and sounds of rush hour at the WTC. One Friday afternoon in 1986, he recorded this ambient noise from the plaza beneath the towers and the concourse inside the WTC, using his SONY ProWalkman. You can hear sounds of the vendors around the WTC.
