住的公寓在修墙，施工噪音太大，家里有老人没法住，

住的公寓在修墙，施工噪音太大，家里有老人没法住. My landload is doing construction in the building for 2 weeks, the workers are just outside of our windows, the noise is very load, it's like a train in my apartment. There are small kids, my old parents who have health problem live with us. Nobody could live in my apartment during the day for 2 weeks, and they won't finish the work for weeks.

I called my landload to terminate the lease on July 20, they told me that I have to pay the rent for the whole month of Aug.

I asked them could they give me another apartment to live for this month, they refused. I told they that we have little kids and old parents who have heart problem, we can't live here any longer, they said that they can't do anything.

We live in New York City, is there any law could protect us? I want to move out as soon as possible, or pay the landload less rent for Aug. if we can't terminate the lease right away? Can we sue the landload? or can we call any city department to complain or ask for help?

Thank you very much! We have to live in our friends' house during the day.

(What if I don't pay any rent and just move out this weekend? Will I get any trouble? I have paid one month deposit to the landload when I moved in.I don't want it any more, just want to leave. Thanks!)
