Sleepless on Livingston
According to the Livingston Street resident who sent in this video, it’s been hard to get any sleep the past couple of nights. After watching, we can see why!

Not fair rob. We’ve had serious construction going on well past midnight – in violation of code big time – for several nights on end
the owner of the building i live in doing construction right above us at times not allowed. do i complain and whine about it? nah. whatever. people need to get stuff done. maybe if the noise bothered me or got in the way of sleep i would be annoying tho, so i guess you have a valid complaint.
im a firm believer in the “dont make waves” mentality tho.

“Never understood why DOT does that, puts up signs saying street will be paved on X date. And then do it on Y date without changing the signs in advance.”
Because they are union and by definition lazy & incompetent.
actually, the noise sucked but was to be expected. but what was not expected was the overwhelming concentration of the fumes, dust, and debris that were swirling through the air. closed windows did nothing for it and the apartment smelled like a tar pit. street looks great now, but would’ve preferred the noxious gasses to have dissipated by the time one would like to get some sleep.
There was notice. All the buildings got letters in advance and there were signs on the street. Everyone knew (or should have) that this was being done. We all complain when these things are not done efficiently; well, this was.
I’m around the corner. And there were signs up, just with the wrong date. Was supposed to be done last week but wasn’t. Never understood why DOT does that, puts up signs saying street will be paved on X date. And then do it on Y date without changing the signs in advance.
annoying here last night. At least it should just be one night. They were out front of our place (62 Livingston) basically from 11:00 to 2:30-3:00. The steamroller was shaking the whole building.
The issue everyone here along livingston is having is that this isn’t a major street that has to be done during the night. This block of livingston (between Clinton and Court) is virtually all residential and one-way… so basically the city decided that we should all have to stay up for a night so that some cars driving through during the day don’t have to drive an extra block today while circling around looking for parking. nice, the almighty automobile wins again.

Haven’t people learned by now that the only noise you are allowed to complain about in Brooklyn is noise associated with toddlers?
Once again – “waaaaaaaaaaaaa” & “cry me a river”. You win the biggest self-entitled p^&sy award. Stop by your nearest Duane Reade to pick up some tampons.
