Has anyone else near 181st St and Broadway been getting absolutely worn down by the overnight construction?

There has been jackhammering, stone grinding, paving, and other street construction work going on after 10:00 PM at the corner of 181st and Broadway for nearly the past NINE MONTHS on what feels like a nightly basis.

As the NYC 311 website states: “Commercial, Street, and Highway Construction is allowed on weekdays between 7 AM and 6 PM. However, emergency work necessary for public safety, or work that cannot be performed during normal work hours may occur after hours or on weekends.”

If this overnight noise occurrence had happened one night, or even one week, I think most people could understand it being classified as “emergency work.” But after nine months straight, it’s getting pretty difficult to tolerate.

I sleep next to just one of the dozens of Broadway-facing windows in my building alone, among dozens of other residential buildings facing this same intersection. I genuinely cannot be the only person in this subreddit living nearby and slowly losing it from this on a nightly basis. Does anyone have any idea how much longer this is supposed to go on for?

Anyone know of the victims condition or what happened to the driver that hit her? There was a big crowd outside following the crash. Pedestrian was in the cross walk and the driver had a stop sign so I really don’t know how he managed to hit someone.

Hello neighbors. I have been through a lot this year and in my efforts to keep my happy chemicals up, I do love to interact with a dog, every now and again. If you have a friendly dog that is receptive to affection/petting if we vibe, I'd love to meet up.

I LOVE a dog that just wants to be everyone's friend, but I'm also totally into pups who are friendly, but slower to warm up. Having to earn a little trust doesn't bother me as it reminds me to also be good about my own boundaries.

I love all dogs. I don't mind if they jump up at first and I have been around many dogs, so I know what to expect. If your dog does tricks, awesome. If they don't, awesome. I can bring whatever treats they're allowed to have or venmo you some dollars in exchange for you to bring treats I can give them. If they can't have treats and they get a ball as a reward or something, that's cool too. I'm very flexible about every situation involving a dog.

I absolutely would love to meet the tiniest dogs or the biggest pups on the block. That would make my day.

I'd like to keep my options pretty local and I live near W 181st and Audubon Ave, so I'd say I'm willing to travel up to FWA and a few blocks in each direction from W 181. I'm fine with sidewalk meetups, but also Bennett Park or similar works for me.

Please feel free to message me with as much information about your dog and yourself as you would like.

Thank you in advance. I can't wait to meet your dogs. Please feel introduce yourself if I forget. I get excited about animals. <3 if I cry a little, I'm just really happy. I have my own tissues if I need them.

(also potentially available as emergency dog walk backup/petsitter if needed? I currently only usually do catsit visits and babysit in the area, but I'm always down for jobs if they just work! ☺️)
