Yes, I used to work in a building in downtown SF that was “historic” (old) with windows that actually opened, and every week day starting around 4pm we’d all close the single-pane windows to slightly quiet the irritating honking that was 17 stories below us. It was still audible but a good pair of headphones had a chance of being successful.
All it ever took was one person’s honk to start a chain reaction that would go on for hours.
