A trio of crooked contractors was busted for a “pay-to-play” bribery scheme involving the construction of the World Trade Center, authorities said.

James Luckie, 58, the former Cushman & Wakefield electrical manager, allegedly accepted extravagant gifts — including pricey Knicks tickets and a Florida golf trip — from electrical contracting firm managers Paul Angerame and Michael Garrison, both 59.

“These individuals were trusted with rebuilding the site of the worst terror attack in American history, but instead, allegedly squandered public funds to line their own pockets,” the state’s Attorney General Letitia James said Wednesday.

“Not only did they trade lavish gifts for confidential information and preferential work, but they put lives at risk by hiring unqualified workers to carry out serious electrical work at the site.”

Angerame and Garrison, two former managers at Hatzel & Buehler, Inc., paid for Luckie’s meals, golf outings and chauffeur services in exchange for special treatment at the site, officials said

In 2013, the Port Authority, which owns the WTC site, hired Cushman & Wakefield to oversee electrical work at the mammoth structure, and Luckie was installed as the site’s electrical manager.

Cashman & Wakefield contracted Hazel & Buehler to help with the project and dispatched Angerame and Garrison as supervisors.

The two men heaped more than $17,000 in gifts on Luckie from 2015 to 2017 to curry favor. Luckie allegedly provided the men with insider information about future electrical projects, giving them an advantage over competing firms, court papers charge.

The indictment also alleges that Luckie, Garrison, and Angerame squandered Port Authority money by hiring seven unqualified electricians with family or personal ties to perform repairs and maintenance.

These electricians, who were paid a total of $1.26 million, were inexperienced and didn’t know how to handle high voltage electricity, endangering themselves and their co-workers, officials said.

The Port Authority received a complaint about the dangerous condition and launched an investigation, which uncovered the “pay-to-play” scheme, according to the AG’s office.

All three defendants pleaded not guilty Wednesday in Manhattan Supreme Court to charges of corrupting the government, bribe receiving and official misconduct.
