A construction worker fell down a shaft in a building under construction near the intersection of 1st and K Streets NE around 9 a.m. this morning. D.C. Fire/EMS responded to a call of a worker who had fallen at 90 K Street NE. The man fell about 20 feet, according to fire department spokesperson Pete Piringer. A crane is in use at the scene to help remove the injured worker.



Yikes! Right around the corner from me.
Does anyone know what project that is? I know that the amusingly-named J Street is working on some very pretty buildings at 100 K and 111 K (http://www.jstreetcompanies.com/development/acquisitions/projects) but I don't know the details about 90 K.
