66 Summer is not exempt from this concern but Atlantic Station West will have some form of construction directly next to it for the forseeable future. Across Tresser you have The Smyth finishing up, another development directly next to it, the lot south of you where Dogtopia is has pending approvals for construction, the parking lot next to KPMG is also supposed to be another massive apartment building. That's without considering the two remaining St. John's Towers which will almost certainly be demo'd and replaced within the next 10 years. 66 Summer will be loud for other reasons, but you won't get the blinding lights and daytime construction noise.

Purely anecdotal, I know one guy who lives in 66 Summer and he's very happy with it. Don't know anyone at Atlantic West.

I know someone in Atlantic Station West. Pricey yes but very nice amenities, the gym is awesome and the lobby is fancy. Units have lots of glass (with small window opening section only), nice and modern layout but not the biggest square footage and kitchens are only OK. Also lots of dogs in the building, if you care about that.

I’ve lived at ASW since it opened and the “sound” is not a problem at all. ASW is tucked away from the main noises of Tresser behind Atlantic Station. You hear none of the construction in those developments. If someone happens to touch the St. John’s towers would be the only exception. For the building, it’s new construction, signs throughout that it was just built fast but you get what you need from the place. Amenities are nice, proximity to the train is even nicer, the building is always being cleaned. The garage is annoyingly tight but you will always find parking spaces. Prices are way below market that you would get from nyc (not sure where you are coming from) so in my opinion def worth it.
