Noise complaints: Not just for yuppies
If you were wondering if complaining about the noise in PLG is a gentrifier thing, it isn't: Flatbush leads the city in noise complaints. So to the people who think that complaining about loud music late at night is a form of cultural oppression, we say Shhhhhhhhhh!
In our little corner of PLG, we've been very lucky with respect to noise and rarely find any reason to complain. Last summer, we called 311 to report an outdoor party after it continued hopping past 3 am. But once isn't so bad, is it?
Not unless you're one or two doors down from it!! But if I'm around when it happens again, I'm going to just get up and join the party, since I can't sleep anyway.
