Yankwitt LLP, White Plains (Alicia Tallbe of counsel), for 373 Park, LLC, respondent.

Order, Supreme Court, Bronx County (Paul L. Alpert, J.), entered on or about January 10, 2019, which, insofar as appealed from as limited by the briefs, granted the motions of defendant and third-party defendant for summary judgment dismissing the complaint, unanimously reversed, on the law, without costs, the motions denied, and the complaint and third-party complaint reinstated.

Plaintiff, an employee of the restaurant owned by third-party defendant, slipped and fell on snow and ice on a metal ramp leading from the side door of the restaurant to the sidewalk. Third-party defendant leases the ground floor and basement space from defendant landowner. The evidence shows that the ramp was erected over the public sidewalk alongside defendant's building, and is not included in the diagram of the leased space. Further, the director of leasing for defendant's property manager testified that the ramp was built for use by people with disabilities.

Notwithstanding any lease provisions obligating the restaurant to remove snow and ice from the sidewalk, defendant, as owner of the property abutting the sidewalk, had a nondelegable duty to keep the sidewalk, and any special uses made of the sidewalk, in a safe condition, including the removal of snow and ice (see Xiang Fu He v Troon Mgt., Inc., 34 NY3d 167 [2019] [decided after the motion court's decision]; see also LaRosa v Corner Locations, II, L.P., 169 AD3d 512 [1st Dept 2019]).
