I think that the super may just be trying to scare you...is there any provision in your lease about excessive noise and this being a cause for eviction?

No, just that there should be area rugs. I agree that there's probably little that could be done and the super is blowing a lot of hot air. Incidentally, the amount of time we're talking about is between 6:30 - 7:30 a.m., and 5 - 8 p.m. during the weekdays. Even at that, he watches Sesame Street from 7-7:30 and he's just sitting on the couch! The weekends are more problematic since we're home for much of the time, but still, the noise is more of an episodic nature (e.g., dumping his toys on the floor, throwing something, or running from one room to another) as opposed to continuous.
Truthfully I'm only renting because I was planning on moving to another state, but based on what happens between now and the election, I may just hunker down and stay where I am, in which case I'd buy a house with a backyard and enough space between neighbors!
