The woman was pronounced dead at the scene.
Authorities at the scene initially said the body was of a construction worker, but executives at Delray Beach-based Carousel Development & Restoration told Local 10 News they did not employ any women as construction workers.
An on-site supervisor for the company claimed the woman jumped off the roof and landed on the scaffolding below.
The woman's identity wasn't immediately known.
