I would love to live in a highrise like ideally about 25-35 stories up right in the heart of a vibrant CBD. My biggest concern though is noise... I've been in condo buildings where I could hear people in the next unit walking around, opening the fridge, turning on the tv, etc... I could NOT live like that.
Also I have a home dj setup that i like to spin music with in my spare time and I do not want to live in fear of getting neighbors pissed off and/or getting reported for noise violations.
It seems many developers save costs by not sound proofing buildings well enough. Does anyone have any input on this? Cause i would love a city condo but i am just very hesitant because of this one important issue.
Also, for anyone who loves the idea and lifestyle of highrise dwellings I would recommend this book I bought. It is very cool!
