Harvard Free Summer Aroma Concert

There is no limit to which Harvard University's for profit real estate division will go to enhance the quality of life and quiet enjoyment of their tenants. In this clip the noise of the solo gas-powered hedge trimmer joining the construction background sounds of Fogg Museum renovation and street traffic can be heard. The pungent aroma of the gas fumes cannot be perceived. But reliable sources vouch that they were present. Harvard officials did not respond to queries if similar concerts will be performed at non Harvard buildings in the area.

Harvard Trims Loudly

Harvard University landscape contractor uses hand-held gas-powered hedge trimmer. This device was not included in the recent amendment to the noise ordinance for Cambridge, MA. It makes as much noise as a leaf blower, but the elected geniuses of the Cambridge City Council failed to make policy to protect residents from excessive noise. Instead they gave up their policy-making power to the City Manager who's policy is what the landscaping industry wants. Listen to this. I was unable to capture the gas fumes on video tape that came in through the windows to share with you.
