Making Friends on State Street
The folks now living in the recently-constructed townhouse on State between Nevins and Bond aren’t exactly making friends on the block, it appears. Over the weekend, they decided to do a little jackhammering, much to the chagrin of the some neighbors. “What the hell were they jackhammering in a basically 6 month old house?” asks…
The folks now living in the recently-constructed townhouse on State between Nevins and Bond aren’t exactly making friends on the block, it appears. Over the weekend, they decided to do a little jackhammering, much to the chagrin of the some neighbors. “What the hell were they jackhammering in a basically 6 month old house?” asks the tipster who sent this in. Has to be either for the cellar or the backyard, we’d guess. Did anyone have the pleasure of hearing these shenanigans? Any other tales of particularly inconsiderate neighbors this weekend? GMAP
Tell that to the illegal day worker getting 100$ a day, sending it to his family a million miles away while he sleeps in a triple bunkbed three people deep, i doubt anyone else would do that kind of work “in the middle of the night”. Whoever was doing the work illegal or not probably wanted himself there the least..
I could hear this a block away in the wee hours on Sunday morning. I actually had to get up at 4am for a triathlon anyway so I wasn’t annoyed, but for people who want to sleep normal hours this would have been really disruptive. It’s not too much to ask that people refrain from doing construction in the middle of the night.
this thread is about a single crazy person posting a bunch of ridiculous notes on a door.
on topic??? how could there be THAT much to discuss.
sounds more like gawker to me.
3:13, what are you talking about? this thread is about a dispute between neighbors about construction noise, and the comments generally are on point.
Hey neighbor, did you know that your packing tape could ruin your neighbor’s door finish. Not that they don’t deserve it. I mean after all they came in and they bought a house for over $2m that was just a vacant piece of dirt and now they want to improve it. What nerve. But watch it with the tape, because you never know what type of sander they might use on that door or when it might start a blowing.
this is what hppens when you combine Brooklyn Record with Brownstoner, I’m not bitching, i read both, just saying.
it’s a sad state of affairs when this thread gets 51 comments, and the ones regarding the homes sit with just a handful at best.
is this turning into curbed?
i walk past this house frequently. there’s also a resident in a nearby building who watches tv at max volume at all hours. you can hear the set from halfway down the block.
well then, good for them. the anger should be directed at those who honored their request. not at them for asking. why shouldn’t they have asked?
