Great building but construction a pain

The building itself (employees, amenities, touches, construction) is superb- individual TV's in the gym, stainless steel appliances, sound-proofing from surrounding apartments, etc. In addition, the managment, super and doormen have been nothing but friendly and helpful. However, construction has started on the World Trade Center site (and West Street next to it) and can be completely unbearable at times. Granted, my apt faces Ground Zero, so I am likely in a worse position than other apartments, so keep that in mind. I am 100% for revitalizing the area (one of the reasons I moved to the building to begin with), but jackhammers at 4am on a Sunday (and most days) can wear on your nerves.
All in all, I am sure the construction noise will abate eventually, but I think the building may have a tough time increasing rents until that day arrives.
