Damn Construction NOISES!!!!
We woke up this morning at 6AM to sounds of jackhammering at the construction site next door. JACKHAMMERING NOISES AT 6AM ON A SUNDAY!!! A ginormous (i love that word!) office building, for Comcast, is being built on the block next to ours. I understand that construction is behind schedule, and the weather is agreeable to getting this stuff done, I even understand that we live in a business-area with few residential buildings, BUT, there is just NO EXCUSE for 6am ON A SUNDAY!!
And, we had friends staying here. AND, its still stiffling hot out, so shutting the windows to block some of the noise, made for a different, uncomfortable sleeping situation.
I know its probably futile, but I would really love to call city hall and complain!!! Actually, there are plenty of little old ladies with plenty of time on their hands living in our building -- I hope one of the little bitty activists is going to town on this. How can they authorize a construction permit to start at 6AM ON A SUNDAY!!!
Do I sound bitter? BECAUSE I AM!
Update: Spoke to our REIT Analyst (she follows the company that is constructing the building) and she said that since they use plenty of union-workers, they had to get authorization to do that work. Ugh, city approved. Construction is supposed to be done by March - HOPEFULLY, they will get this noisy-outside work done quickly. I've got my fingers crossed for a sudden frost to sweep through the area - Unlikely since its still in the upper-70s around here.
