This Astoria street is the noisiest in the city: Report

If you’re looking for some peace
and quiet, there are several streets
in Queens that you should absolutely
avoid, according to a new report.
After compiling 311 complaints
made from January 2019 until February
2020, PropertyClub found that
no other street in New York City
had more noise complaints than
Eighth Street in Astoria. In that
time, 2,638 calls were made to 311
with complaints about noise. But it
wasn’t just one cacophonous street
in Astoria that got the borough noticed
by PropertyClub – four of the
top five noisiest streets in the city
were in Queens.
The second loudest street in the
city was Madison Street in Glendale;
the third loudest was Ninth Street
in Astoria; and the fifth loudest was
First Street, also in Astoria. Grand
Concourse in the Bronx came in
fourth on PropertyClub’s list.
It seems that across the city, nothing
is more infuriating to residents
than loud music and party noises,
which make up the bulk of noise
complaints made to 311.
This was true on Eighth Street,
where 1,824 calls were made about
loud music or party noise from
January 2019 to February 2020. For
comparison, only 64 complaints
were made about loud televisions
during the same time frame.
A possible explanation for the high
volume of noise complaints made on
Eighth Street and First Street is the
high volume of people who live there.
The two blocks border the Astoria
Houses, a group of 22 public housing
buildings in northwest Astoria
with over 1,000 apartments between
them. The street is also a neighbor to
a school bus depot and a handful of
industrial buildings.
Elsewhere on PropertyClub’s list
were several major surprises.
While one might expect Manhattan
to be the noisiest borough, it only
accounted for 10 of the 50 noisiest
streets in the city, according to
PropertyClub. The loudest borough,
PropertyClub found, was Brooklyn,
where its residents collectively made

73,744 complaints about noise from
January 2019 to February 2020.
If one is looking for silent serenity,
the data suggests a move to Staten
Island, where things are either very
quiet or people just don’t complain.
