So you think you have it bad with those loud Oval concerts and coffee trucks? Are they disturbing your peace?
Well, consider yourselves fortunate that you don't live around the 20th Street Loop, which saw Stuyvesant Town work crews bringing out bulk items from the surely nasty 522 building, and at what time? 6AM!!!
Yes, in the noise-gift-that-keeps-on-giving here lately, some brain decided that it would be good to wake up residents living nearby 522 at this early hour with the banging, throwing, crashing of junk being piled up for the disposal truck that came by later.
So Stuy Town, how's your 4th of July weekend so far?
Stuyvesant Town has become a living hell. There is nothing anymore to distinguish it from any other scruffy part of the city. Oasis? No more. TS and Rose have made damn sure of that. Maybe we should find out where Adam Rose lives (far away from here, I'm sure!) and all of us make sure he doesn't get any peace and quiet 24/7.
ReplyDeleteI live in that area and the noise did wake me up. I finally went back to sleep when the thunderstorms came. The Mother Nature cure.
ReplyDeleteThere's no reason for whatever went on in the 20th Street Loop today. Adam Rose should be sentenced to live here for a month. He should live in a "flex" apartment so his "foyer" has no window. Part of his living arrangement has to be that he has NYU above him and next to him. Woo hoo! He has to take down his own recycling stuff and do his own laundry in the Mac Gray machines. Give him a storage unit where people have piled up their bikes and junk and where he can enjoy the rats scurrying by. His windows have to face the Oval, right by an endlessly humming food truck so he can enjoy the sounds and smells and his apartment has to be on a low floor so there's a good chance the building's rodents will visit him. We don't want him to miss a note of a concert either. Hey Adam. WTF?
ReplyDeleteNo wonder people leave this place on the weekends. Rock bands in the afternoon, food trucks at night and now garbage hurling in the morning?
ReplyDeleteWTF?
When Speyer ran the complex, they brought out the recyclables in the Ave C loop every Wednesday at 5 AM, yes, 5 AM. They would throw bags of glass into a pile. At around 7 AM the homeless would come to shift through the bags for deposit bottles. This would go on every Wednesday, week after week.
ReplyDeleteI endured over 6 years of shit like this... then I got smart. I moved. Stuyvesant Town was a bucolic oasis for decades. I guess I was very fortunate to gave enjoyed it for so many years.
