A 67-year-old man died after plummeting from a high-rise Arverne, Queens building in an apparent suicide Friday afternoon, police said.

The man’s body was discovered around 2 p.m. at 7800 Shore Front Parkway, within the Dayton Towers building complex, near Dayton Beach Park. Police believe the victim jumped from an 11th-floor balcony of the 13-floor building.

He was found unresponsive, with his injuries indicating he fell from an elevated position, cops said. He was declared dead at the scene.

It is unclear whether the victim lived in the building. Police are still investigating.
