Outshine, do both you and your neighbor live in the same building, or does your neighbor live in a separate building?

Maybe cate can offer a prize to anyone that can figure out what is actually happening here.

Outshine:
You’ve received some wonderful and clear advice on the several threads that have been posted on this issue. We would like to close out these threads. To summarize:
*If you have a contentious relationship with your neighbor and can’t talk to them directly then look on the Department of Buildings website to see what permitted work they have filed.
*If you believe that they are doing work without permits that is impacting the safety of your property then call 311 and file a complaint with DOB.
*Make sure to take pictures of the condition of your property to document “before” and “after.”
*As many have pointed out, removal of the party wall would result in the structural instability of your neighbor’s house and it is unlikely that would be done. However, construction is noisy; it may very well feel like they are removing a wall when they aren’t.
*If the combination of a contentious relationship with your neighbor and the stress of construction noise is causing you extreme anxiety, this forum may not be the right place for assistance.
