Recordist's notes
This place will be (most probably) soon destroyed. The real estate developer Matexi plans to build luxury housing on an area of more than 2 hectares of green space in the heart of the city of Liege. In the meantime, kids are playing around, they imagine some stories and some souls in the building. (we were recording from the window and they were in the grass below)
About the place
Liège is a city of about 195,278 people in Wallonia, Belgium. OttoAnna lists 27 field recordings from here.
