A worker was hurt after he took a fall at the 1 World Trade Center this afternoon.

The man was working in an enclosed area on the 101st floor of the new skyscraper when he tumbled about sixteen feet inside the building about 12:50 p.m., authorities said.

FDNY rescuers used ropes and a basket to pull the man down to safety, according to Deputy Chief John Esposito.

“We had to perform a high-angle rope rescue,” said Esposito. “He was conscious and alert.”

EMS brought the man to Bellevue Hospital in stable condition. He suffered minor injuries from the fall, authorities said.
