Recordist's notes

Recording at the corner of Crescent St and Saint-Catherine St. At this hour there would be a larger number of commuters heading in different directions to get to work or head to school. Yet, we hear little amounts of vehicles and pedestrians on their morning journey due to many of the workplace establishments being shut down during lockdown. We hear only a few instances of what is left of morning routines for Downtown Montreal. – Georgios Varoutsos (https://georgiosvaroutsos.com/covid-19_montreal-city-lockdowns/)
