ROOSEVELT ISLAND – FDNY officials said Tuesday morning reports of a “building shaking and explosion” on New York City’s Roosevelt Island in the East River were unfounded.
Calls were received just before 6 a.m. for the reports at 580 Main St., which is just south of Roosevelt Island Bridge & Tram.
SkyFOX was over the scene, which showed several emergency response vehicles.
Several tweets across the social media platform “X” reported people saying they were awoken by a loud noise, and that they felt their buildings shaking.
