Newark Rooftop

The density of sound seems to make the days and nights simmer with an eternal life that blends the two times together into an endless expanse of activity. As tankers and teens pass by below, you ponder the passing of the hours, somehow enlightened up on your perch high above the fray, sending out signals to the universe for an answer to your perfect afternoon perplexity. Newark is the largest city in the sate of New Jersey, United States. This ethnically diverse city is divided into five wards, and contains a variety of neighborhoods ranging in character from bustling urban districts to quiet suburban enclaves. Newark was originally founded in 1666 by Connecticut Puritans led by Robert Treat from the New Haven Colony. The city saw tremendous industrial and population growth during the 19th century and early 20th century, and experienced racial tension and urban decline in the second half of the 20th century, exemplified by the 1967 Newark riots. The city has experienced some revitalization during the 1990s and early 21st century. This sound uses the following file from Freesound: http://www.freesound.org/samplesViewSingle.php?id=116666
