‘Sounds of New York’ uses city noise to improve your focus
As a tribute to New York City, Breather, a company with rentable workplaces worldwide, developed a website that lets you listen to the sounds of different city neighborhoods and iconic Big Apple locations. Called Sounds of New York, ambient noises play in the background to help workers concentrate on their daily tasks. Enhance your productivity by listening to the atmospheric sounds of the Strand bookstore, McSorley’s Ale House, Zabar’s, the Comedy Cellar, the Oculus, or Harlem’s Apollo Theater all from the comfort of your office.
According to their website, Breather spent months capturing the cacophony of city neighborhoods and turning it into ambient noise. The company first mapped out their favorite places in NYC, looking at a ton of diverse neighborhoods ranging from Chinatown and Murray Hill to Washington Heights and the West Village. The group included their own workplace locations at One Penn Plaza, 200 Varick Street, and 601 West 26th Street.
The Greenwich Village staples include Julius’ Bar, Caffe Reggio and the Comedy Cellar. Hear the buzz of Washington Heights at famous places like El Lina, Malecon Restaurant, and Bodega Pizza. Hear it all through Breather’s website found here.
