Hurt on a Concourse construction site?
Falls from scaffolds. Falling tools. Trench collapse. Crane and hoist failures on Concourse job sites. The Grand Concourse corridor — Yankee Stadium, Bronx County Supreme Court, and Bronx-Lebanon Hospital. Heavy weekday courthouse and stadium-day rideshare activity, plus dense pre-war apartment housing. New York gives injured construction workers strong legal protection — owners and general contractors can be held responsible for gravity-related injuries (falls from heights, falling objects). Your immigration status does not matter.
