I have been trying for years. There is loud music, I call the super, he asks me where it is coming from. I am not sure where. He says I will come to your apartment and try to figure out where it is coming from. by the time, he comes (he has to finish something first) the noise either stopped or he walks in and says: "oh, this is just a little base"

"just a little base" seems to be his favorite phrase. sometimes it is not too loud, but you still constantly feel like someone is pounding on your head.

I emailed management. Nothing.

I told them many times can you put notices up asking people not to play loud music. Nothing, they did not do anything.

I was also told sometimes that they have the right and I can only complain if it happens after 10 pm.

a paralegal friend told me I have the right to complain anytime (does not have to be after 10 pm) I called the city, they said they need the address of where the music is coming from and I can file a complaint.

I don't know if I can remain anonymous, the neighbors will guess who complained as I have spoken with them before. What if they start turning the music louder, or worse, started causing more thuds and me getting more scared with the ceiling shaking. That would be too scary for me.

Heidi, is there any reason management won't approach the noise makers? That's their job? They really should be the one filing the complaint for all the residents who are affected.

I am having problems with tenants playing very loud music again. it is hard to feel that someone is hitting you constantly on the head (base or drums, whatever you want to call it) they also keep throwing things on the floor and the ceiling above me is shaking. I called the city, they said I can file a complaint and they will assign an investigating officer.

I was a bit nervous about filing the complaint and the shaking above is not making it easier to concentrate.

I think these people upstairs are trouble. once the police and paramedics had to come because someone was drunk.

I think this is an attack of the enemy too, cause the shaking ceiling is scary for me.
