Foreal. It’s a city. It’s city things.

"What's going on in my neighborhood that's probably none of my business? Also I won't tell you which neighborhood. Guess."
This is one the most helpless, useless, inept posts I've seen in this sub.

Sounds like you need LUXURY info...

Sometimes when I can’t hear sirens and helicopters, I might ask what’s going on. Why so quiet?

Jeeez, happy Monday to you to! Should have known… forgot neighborhood… ooops sorry… being here over a decade… and please think that not everybody is lucky enough to move as fast as you… was an impulse post relying on the community… guess I learned my lesson!

Usually I just let myself relax when they don't stop next to my house. Maybe it's from like 20 years of working in NYC, but noise is basically just part of living/working/existing here. 40/41 years have been lived in this general 10mi radius and it's always been a cacophony of WTF.
If you are near the Holland Tunnel you are gonna be stuck with helicopters because the morning news has to like, fly over and "show you" the traffic. and we have a ton of major roadways converging into 1/9 towards the Tunnel so it's basically "all the time". I lived off 1/9 on Baldwin for about 20 years and it was REALLY loud at times, to the point where I occasionally worried something might crash into the area.... but yeah sound is just weird and things bounce around sometimes and sound even worse.

“ been here over a decade” —- but still freaks out over a helicopter and some sirens? That decade must be in luxury years

Actually, I live in Newport, about 2 blocks from the tunnel, and I don’t hear the helicopters hovering that often. I hear them going up and down the river or flying people out to EWR, but not in the “traffic report” stationary sense. Could just be me.

Every post in this fucking sub is “what’s going on outside? did you hear those sirens?” jesus christ shut up and mind your own business. it’s insufferable.

Right? It’s getting old. I rarely see interesting shit on this sub anymore. Just endless bitching
lucidrevolution t1_j7gcko6 wrote
I think it's because I was literally right where the major roadway goes down to the Tunnel and I often saw the helicopter news people during the traffic reports... Newport I can see having more issues with the helipad stuff... but I haven't lived downtown in a very long time.

@papotte not sure where you’re located, but a construction mistake happened earlier today for a new high rise that took down a wall supporting jfk at 139. Looks bad, lots of choppers and fire trucks.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share this! Sorry if I sounded nosy or anything… I guess it made me realize how much people actually care, not! Thank you for being a great neighbor 🤍

A lot of them are tourist/sightseeing helicopters or private use and definitely not news/police- I used to live in Port Imperial and we heard them often pre Covid, less so during the height of it all, and definitely became more frequent again before we moved out in late 2021

Don’t feel bad. I lived here 16 years this morning I was like “what the hell?” It seemed like the sirens and fire trucks were never going to end.

Everyone in this sub is so miserable. How is it nosy? OP isn’t asking us to help identity a neighborly squabble. It was a large scale response that probably worried/alarmed plenty of people

Go outside and figure it out. Otherwise, stop being so damn nosy.
