Lots of banging in system

I live. In a rental when the heat comes up it a noisy symphony thru out my apartment and the top floor apartment above me ( that apt was gut renovated they added additional radiators). Where do I begin. At the start of the heating cycle the riser in the bathroom start making sounds like some thing light is tapping fast against yhe pipe then we go to full blown hammering of the pipe then in my kitchen ceiling the heat pipe to the radio in the newly created bedroom that yae to be a kitchen bangs like heck then lest go to my luvingroom the pioes in my ceiling that lead to.all the other radiator starts making sounds anywhere we fro. Boyncingpingpong ball to sounding like tons if rain drops on my ceiling . Then my radiators start up my front room bangs about 2x now we gi.back to the livingroom and this radiator bangs quickly about 4 or 5 times in succession . This takes about 1p to 5 minutes go thry all of this . After we might hear either of the radiators give off a much louder bang. This wakes us up and everyone around in the middle of the.night or early morning hour . I get crap from the neighbors because of this . Been asking my landlord to fix this since 2019. I have been told by HPD and supers in the area and even our own maintenance people that it's not our apartment causing the issue it's the heating system it self the problem is most like caused by th e boiler . Winter are hell and stressful because of this .And no moving is not an option .

No, it's not your specific apartment. Yes it is the heating system, but it would take some effort to find out exactly which pipes are pitched wrong or supported wrong and are causing the problems.
