My next door neighbor drops weights several times a day.
I hear the noise and very slightly feel a small vibration. Can this over time damage my house or it's foundation? How about my driveway?

If his weights are doing that much damage, it’s probably not a good idea to frick with the baw.

If he has horse stall mats down it’s fine

The two houses are not connected. That’s why they’re are isolation joints etc but if anything that would be a problem for him over you.

Is this for real???? At most, he'll damage his flooring and possibly break some of the weights if they are cast iron plates. Other than that, you have no problems other than hearing the clang of the dumbass dropping the weight bar.

Hopefully he has mats that he's using to cushion the blow and not directly on cement.

Yup. If your neighbor is lifting large enough weights to damage the foundation of nearby houses, you're just going to have to accept he gets to do what he wants.
