Mayor's Office assigned this issue to Former City Employee [ Inspectional Services]

Please note that due to Covid restrictions, we cant really go anywhere to escape the noise. Its is constant from 0730am to about 300pm. What’s the answer for a long term construction project to build a new building??

Contractor has been notified of hammering and crushing for demo limited to 8:00 to 5:00 Monday through Friday.

Regular Construction is 8:00 to 5:00 Monday thru Saturday

This is unbearable. 9 hours of straight pounding. EVERY week day. If someone in charge had to endure this, a change would be made immediately. Either open up the entire city so I can go to the library or a coffee shop or park on Lynn Shore Drive even, or cut the time of the pounding in half. IT IS NONSTOP BANGING FOR NINE HOURS STRAIGHT. There HAS to be a Covid modification to the normal rules. Going crazy over here.

I see two other comments requesting even some info on a timeline for this. Other poster correctly noted that we have two banging noises- a slow steady one and a fast paced one too. Some info more than “This has been assigned to...” would be welcome. Better yet, come park your car nearby for a few hours and try to make a phone call. I do NOT think anyone in city government appreciates the effect of this torturous nonstop noise. Thanks.

602 Loring Avenue Construction. Still banging away 8-5. Municipal offices are closed today on 7/3 but no break in the pounding. I wish I could post a video. Will have to consider self help.

Thank you for reporting this issue to us.
