Not the 'Doink Doink', the 'Thu-thunk thu-thunk'

Several months back, I came home to a ConEd emergency crew working on my street. It turned out to be a gas leak that required jackhammering on the street in front of us for days to fix the leak.

Over the past two months, we heard 'thu-thunk thu-thunk' all night as cars drove over the steel plates covering the in-ground work site. Last week, I noticed fewer plates on the ground.









Today, I peered out my window and noticed that *all* the plates were gone. Now, I will need to get used to not hearing the noise. It made me think about my own assumed requirement of a garden-facing bedroom for quiet sleeping. I want to share that tip for your own search.

Real Estate Tip: When considering a move to a new home, pay attention to your routines. This will help to prioritize your requirements for features. For example, if you like to finish up a meal while guests are present, you may prefer an open concept floor plan.
