Another noise solution. In our search for peace and quiet, we've come across City Soundproofing in a recent question by Christine (which has some great suggestions).

Has anyone tried soundproof curtains, that you could pull along your entire wall? lisa2 in austin on Jun 8, 2007

If you live in an order building, virtually all of the noise comes through the windows. The walls are 12 inches of brick and concrete, the windows are one or two 1/4" slabs of glass the vibrate and pass noise along to the inside of the apartment.

Adding a separate window layer with airspace -- what these "quiet" windows do -- definitely improves things, by how much depends upon your sensitivity to noise and cost (there are expensive). I have no experience with Citiquiet, but my old apartment had what are sometimes called "city windows" -- a sliding window inside a regular sash window. These were 20 years old, but still did dampen noise. But, I would think long and hard before dropping a couple grand per window to get Citiquiet windows. lightenup on Jun 8, 2007
