Description: Most New Yorkers know about being woken up at night by construction. The City Council has just passed a bill designed to get us our beauty sleep. What does this mean for you? The bill requires the sites keep the noise level below 80 decibels. For those of us who don't speak audio geek, a food blender is 88 decibels. Anything equal to that or over it would be against the law.
