At a single point, like in noise cancelling headphones. Sennheiser and
Bose both make some that I would expect to work well.

That is pure BS. Sound and acoustics in public spaces is my field, and
I can tell you with authority that it is NOT possible.

No. You could reduce the level substantially in your ears with very
good noise cancelling headphones, but most headphones can't produce
enough level at very low frequencies to make much of a dent.
