City dweller challenges - the city is doing major utilities work in the street below me - Ala Moana.  Waikiki is getting ready for the APEC meetings in November...beautifying away.  Nonetheless - 9 stories above the street, I have been startled at all hours of the evening by loud crashes of heavy equipment, annoyed by endless backup beeps, and amazingly surprised by the brilliance of welding projects at 3 am immediately below my home....honestly, light pollutions is almost as troublesome as noise.  And it's temporary so I endure it.  And wonder silently why the neighborhoods in proximity to the rail project archaeology test survey are complaining already.
