Construction White Noise

The building next to us (the one we see from our living room, dining room and kitchen windows) has been doing construction/repairs for months. I am excited about the finished product as it will make for a much prettier view than we had before, but boy does it take a long time to get there! Here's a photo of work going on today:

The "finished" look can be seen on the far right of the photo. That side of the building was finished before we moved in last year. The side of the building to the left of the photo is what they're working on now. First, they jackhammered out most of the concrete beams, then reinforced the steel bars behind the concrete, and now (finally!) they are starting to pour concrete to rebuild the beams. The construction has become just like white noise for me, although I will admit I am eager for them to finish up!
