This is happening nonstop in Prague. Our offeces are on the 5th floor (the top) so I can hear any construction work within a kilometer. Especially in the summer, when I try to have the window open whenever possible.
At home, I live on the 7th floor, once again the top, hearing everything - and there is an ongoing building construction nearby for more than a year, an apartment reconstruction 4 floors below, still noisy.
It's neverending story - I cannot even believe there's still some kind of rock that can be drilled or be broken apart. I though every single wall is already looking like a swiss cheese. Aparently, it's not, yet..
