311 complaint of the day: Screaming, drum banging Park Plaza strikers not just annoying people in the hotel

An annoyed resident filed a 311 complaint at 7:52 a.m. about the striking Park Plaza workers, who now strike up the band, um, buckets and loudspeakers, starting at 7 a.m.:

Strikers outside park plaza are louder than previous week. They used to only stay from approx 7am-7:30am outside the Statler Park side annoying local residents …. today it’s been since 7am and it’s now almost 8am with no end in sight - they are certainly targeting residents in an attempt to get US to do something. This is so unfair, I’m having heart palpitations and anxiety every morning from the noise.

Another adds:

Adding to the multiple 311 reports for the noise disturbances by the union strike. Hope the strikers and Mayor Wu don’t require any services from sleep deprived pilots, doctors, and nurses affected by the constant noise at the Park Plaza/Bay Village. Any feedback on how to address the quality of life issue we have been experiencing all month would be greatly appreciated.

The Boston Public Health Commission responded to one complaint there's nothing they can do, protest protesters should call police. But according to one resident, police are doing nothing, certainly not taking any action like when bucket bangers kept springing up outside the mayor's house:

Protestors are using football stadium band drums and horns so loud you would think they are air raid sirens. The protesters have every right to protest, but the manner by which they are allowed to protest is completely beyond any reasonable allowance. Who has the power to control this? Is it a city judge? PLEASE contact us back so we know how to address this issue with someone who can make a change.

if that doesn't work try the Federal Hotline 617 428-2000.

Then its working.

Maybe these folks should get on the horn with their representatives (state house, congress) and tell THEM your complaints, and get them to mediate the issue to a resolution with the protesters. The city can and will do nothing. Your legislators can. Call them. Not 311.

Starting at 7:52am on a weekday isn't a crime. You live in the city near a hotel that is on strike. Oh well.. suck it up buttercup. These folks want better wages to better themselves. You'd do the same if your job was on the line and you were unpaid.

Did not appear to be having any effect.

The hotel was even getting linen deliveries.

I’m surprised the strikers don’t block that. Drums are nice but lack of clean sheets might be a motivator to work with the union.

Imagine thinking that you have a monopoly on where a visitor takes a dump, sleeps, and showers.

I'd be putting down the picket sign, and looking for a job cleaning Airbnb units. Hell, whomever is running their union should be investing the dues in buying properties to let out to visitors, and giving their members jobs running them.

The hotel corporation isn't your friend. It's 2024 America. No one is your friend.
