Could you move the bench yourself to somewhere suitable for you? Then put up a sign - No smoking within 5m of the windows. (or building)
If they still don't get the hint, talk to the landlord and threaten to move out unless something is done. Is there a tenants union in the US? We have one in Australia that will help you sort this stuff out with your landlord. Know your rights. Over here, you could break lease and be well within your rights to do that. Try putting it all in writing to the landlord. Send them a letter demanding they do something about it, and then call them letting them know that a letter is on its way about the matter, and when are they planning to do something about it?
Good luck.
