Hi Matt, It's been awhile since I've seen Rudy Burckhardt's "Eastside Summer," but it's spontaneous street photography (lovely, 1950s NYC footage).
I wonder, though, if by "recording people on the street," etc., you mean that the filmmaker is shooting one particular spot, or one person, or one activity. That would be different than Burckhardt et al. I would think more of the sequence from Jim McBride's "David Holzman's Diary" for which the cameraman (Michael Wadleigh) shot a handheld 'tracking shot' while walking past a row of park benches, filming the people sitting on them. This documentary footage (a single long take) is then incorporated into the film's fictional context as if it were shot by the film's protagonist.
