Honestly. Summer Fridays during 5pm rush hour will take you longer. Get yourself a good playlist

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.
