Next door neighbor (1)

This house under construction is directly next to ours, and we share high garden walls. It’s enormous but is only a single family dwelling.

When we first moved here, the building was just cinderblock, along with another one on the other side of it. Suddenly they started working on this one, and then accelerated work in the last few months. It’s been incredibly noisy, with jackhammers operating for about six weeks from 7 a.m. until dark (or later). I’m glad it’s almost finished, although I doubt anybody will be moving in there before we leave this summer.

It looks better from the back, taken from Hajer Park, which borders our property.

maybe some members of the family need to keep a good distance from others, especially teenagers
