William, The Building Code does not require this level of sound reduction. John Hewett
Other: The windows in my apartment that look onto E.3rd St do not block out the extreme heavy truck and vehicle road noise. How did this building get built and passed a noise test/study(If there was such a study, or process) along E.3rd St (Highway)? In addition the slight gradient of the road adds to excessive noise whether a vehicle accelerates up the hill,or engine braking from the trucks going down the hill.This situation has already effected my health, lack of sleep significantly . Why didn't the builder or noise code require soundproof windows, on this side of the building, or allow the building to be this close to this highway(which it is).

There is no requirement for buildings to be noise resistant.
