NYC’s ‘Painful Din’
Friday, 12 July 2013 | by Pat's Picks

It comes from up high and down low. The New York Times says the “city’s painful din” is due to a compendium of factors, including the fact that building permits are the highest they’ve been in 5 years and many construction crews are permitted to work through the night. Add that to your neighbor’s home theater system seeping through the thinner walls of new construction and the refrigerated Fresh Direct trucks roaming the streets and it’s a wonder anyone sleeps at all.
