The woman tragically killed by falling building debris in Midtown on Tuesday was an “extraordinary New Yorker” who died just a few blocks from the firm where she was a vice president.

Erica L. Tishman, 60, of the Upper East Side, was not only skilled in her field, but volunteered and sat on the boards of various educational and charitable organizations.

“She was so incredibly smart and indefatigable,” said Alan van Capelle, CEO and president of the social service nonprofit Educational Alliance on the Lower East Side, where Tishman had served on the board.

“We feel like a piece of our soul has been ripped apart.”

Born Erica Lindenbaum, she attended Riverdale Country School in the Bronx, then Princeton University, graduating in 1981.

She married financial analyst Steven Tishman on June 20, 1982, according to the couple’s wedding announcement in the New York Times. The couple have three adult children, Adam, Stuart and Julia.

A woman who answered the phone at the couple’s Park ­Avenue apartment Tuesday declined to comment.

Tishman received a master’s degree in architecture from the Harvard University Graduate School of Design before joining famed New York architecture firm DeWitt Tishman Architects in 1993, getting her name added to the mantle.

There, she worked on Jersey City’s Trump Plaza, which was completed in 2008, and the adjacent Trump Bay Street, which opened in 2016.

A 2007 New York Times article credited DeWitt Tishman as the driving force behind the creation of the New Jersey waterfront’s “distinctive” skyline.

Beginning in 2017, she was a vice president at the construction project management firm Zubatkin Owner Representation.

She died just a 10-minute walk from the firm on West 52nd Street between Eighth and Ninth avenues.

Company executive Jason Zubatkin declined to comment, citing Tishman’s family.

The lifelong New Yorker was a trustee at her alma mater, the Riverdale Country School, and of Central Synagogue in Midtown, where she and her husband have been members since 1992. She was chair of the board of directors at the ­Educational Alliance until June 2018.

Tishman’s efforts helped the organization establish its Head Start program, which serves preschool children from low-income families, as well as overseeing the creation of an addiction treatment center in Alphabet City, according to van Capelle.

“She is in every way an ­extraordinary New Yorker,” he said.

A distraught manager at S. Feldman Housewares, a home goods store near Tishman’s pad, said he knew the woman and her husband for years as “good, loyal customers.”

“I’m sorry. You hate to lose a good New Yorker, a good neighbor,” he said.
