Is Dumbo the Noisiest?
January 4th, 2010
According to a NY Post story, the noisiest places in NYC are on the F, V, B, D platform in Bryant Park (93 decibels), the corner of 42nd and 5th Ave (87 dBA), West Side Highway (83 dBA), or Herald Square (78 dBA). WHAT?! Maybe the people who did the study didn’t go outside of Manhattan, because supposedly, the noise level is between 80 dBA and up to 96 dBA under the Manhattan Bridge in Dumbo.
