No, not really. When we first went up to see the building, they still had the old single-pane windows in and you couldn't really hear it. And that was about 6:00pm on a Friday night. Now they have better double-pane windows in, hopefully further reducing any noise that's out there. The Hilton Garden Inn next door blocks a lot of the highway noise, I think.
You can, however, hear 6th Street noise if your room is on the west side.
But still, there's a part of me that worries about that. My wife and I have been watching a bunch of Sopranos episodes recently, and every time they show Meadow in her dorm room in NYC there's a constant background noise of traffic and sirens. Makes me wonder if that's what it will be like for us. The police and fire stations are only a few blocks away from the Sabine.
