To the Editor,
We’ve grown to accept the constant drone of lawn mowers and power blowers from Spring through Fall, but the non-stop noise pollution from heavy machinery in the North Mianus area of Cos Cob has reach the most annoying crescendo. Jack hammers and other types of heavy equipment have been busily employed to install home foundations and swimming pools in places that mother nature had never intended. In the stretch from the intersection of Valley Road and Dandy Drive to the intersection of Cognewaugh Road and Fado Lane, there has been constant heavy construction to remove rock and trees that get in the way of grandeur. The chattering noise can be heard a mile away, often beginning before 8:00 AM and lasting until 5:00 PM. Forget those who need sleep during the day or want a quiet place to work from home, opulence trumps tranquility.
