West End Neighborhood Library is around 3 blocks from you as an immediate solution.

Did he show up recently? If you let yourself hear him while you go about normal activity in your apartment your brain might start tuning him out as background noise. Dealt with the same thing in college with a saxophone player and he eventually got drowned out with traffic and siren noise. Some people recommend white noise machines.

Have you been in the west end library? It’s not exactly a quiet sanctuary. Last time I was there a homeless man was screaming at the top of his lungs about wanting to kill his dog

No, I haven't, so thank you for posting a heads up. Hopefully OP lives near their campus and has private workspace access.

The library was a good suggestion; it could certainly be calmer during off peak times. Either way, noise canceling headphones and white noise machine should go a long way.
