West Side ziggurat Mercedes House doesn't just overwhelm its neighbors architecturally. The noise, lights, and fumes from the building aren't making big fans out of the folks who live nearby, either. "It's like having a fighter-jet engine across the street," complained one neighbor; another described the way he has to wrap his head in a pillow in order to sleep. The city has found that the noise exceeds the legal limits, and the folks at the Mercedes dealership are working on a solution, but there's no timeline. Buy your Mercedes House-neighboring friends earplugs for the holidays! [NYP]
