The teenager, who has not yet been identified, jumped to her death from the eighth floor of an East 82nd Street apartment building at around 12:54 p.m.

She was pronounced dead shortly thereafter, according to authorities.

A 17-year-old New York City girl jumped to her death Sunday from the top of an eight-story apartment building on Manhattan’s Upper East Side.

The building is just off Park Avenue and is lined with trees at the end of the block, according to easy street.

Built in 1912, the nine-story, 34-unit building was converted to a cooperative in 1983.

The building has a full-time doorman, resident superintendent, and central laundry.

The alleged suicide comes as a number of people have rushed to their deaths in New York City.

In late October, a man jumped to his death from the 12th floor of a New York City high-rise near Central Park.

Bed Bath & Beyond’s chief financial officer, Gustavo Arnal, 52, also jumped to his own death in Tribeca in early September.

His death came as the company announced plans to close 150 stores, out of its roughly 900, and lay off 20 percent of staff just two days before Arnal’s death.

He jumped from 56 Leonard Street, the famous ‘Jenga’ tower in the Tribeca neighborhood of Manhattan, on September 2. Apartments cost up to $50 million inside the 57-story building.

A 40-year-old woman also jumped in late September from 157 East 57th Street in the Sutton Place neighborhood.

A woman was found with injuries that were consistent with a fall, she was pronounced dead at the scene.

The source did not identify the woman. A vendor at Bassano Jewelry, just down the block where the tragedy occurred, told DailyMail.com that the building at 157 57th Street is known as “the suicide building.”
