During a typical community board meeting, the portion of the evening dedicated to reviewing liquor licenses might find one or two locals bringing up varied concerns. Although the board reviews several liquor license renewals simultaneously, the focus at the January 10 meeting rested squarely on one establishment.

Neighbors Call Nightlife Noise From CODA Williamsburg Hotel “Extremely Bad”

I hope Mr. Richter views this message. His insinuation that residents are making up noise complaints just shows what the management thinks of their neighbors.

The fact is no sound proofing engineer can guarantee immunity from the bass that travels through our shared walls. Also I’ve personally witnessed an older lady, a guest at your hotel, asking the hotel receptionist to be moved because she couldn’t sleep. Creatures of all Kinds is a cash cow for you sir – please share the revenue split of the rooftop bar vs the hotel. I’ve been told that the rooftop brought in excess of $2 million over the warmer months last year at OUR expense. All we want is a peaceful environment to live our lives. We don’t want anything more or anything less. We don’t want more access to anything of the hotel’s. Just want the ability to live in our condo without dreading the noise. We live in constant fear of what the weekend would bring. The noise pool from the pool is another story which I won’t go into yet.
As one of many New Yorkers suffering from excessive noise for a long time, I started making an NYC noise app called “RightAvenues”. We are working hard to find a way to empower people from their noise experience. Could you please send me an email [email protected] ? I would like to learn more about this problem and maybe we can add some values!
