On Saturday afternoon, a fire could be seen raging in The Avery, a high-rise building on the Upper West Side, near Riverside Boulevard. NBC News reports that one person was injured, and the fire has been contained.

NBC News reports that, according to the FDNY, the fire started on a terrace on the 21st floor of the high-rise building on West End Avenue near 65th Street.

Trump Place—not to be confused with Trump Palacespans eleven blocks on the west side of Manhattan. While the condo building still bears its developer’s name, the Trump Organization was fired in 2012 as manager of the complex and replaced with AKAM Living Services.

Eleven people were injured in an earlier fire at Trump Place, in 2012.

Update, 2:55 p.m. – An earlier version of this post misidentified the building as part of the surrounding Trump Place. From NBC:

FDNY officials initially referred to the building as a “Trump Tower,” but the building is called The Avery and does not appear to have a connection to Donald Trump. Several nearby buildings are known as Trump Place.
