A friend of mine has moved into a new apartment (new construction)and noticed (after the fact) a bit of subway noise/vibration. The apartment doesn’t shake and it is not audible enough to disturb conversation. However, if you are sitting in the room without any radio or television on, you will notice the trains pass underneath every 4-5 minutes (sounds like an AC’s white noise except it starts and stops every 4-5 minutes making it not a white noise). Has anyone dealt with this type of noise with insulation or noise reduction devices? She is on the fourth floor btw.
