Ordered that the order is affirmed, without costs or disbursements.
Under the facts of this case, the Supreme Court providently exercised its discretion in granting the plaintiffs' motion for leave to serve a late notice of claim pursuant to General Municipal Law § 50-e (5). The defendant City of New York acquired notice of the essential facts of the subject incident within a reasonable time after the statutory 90-day-period following the accident ( see Matter of March v Town of Wappinger, 29 AD3d 998; cf. Matter of National Sur. Corp. v Town of Greenburgh, 266 AD2d 550). Moreover, the City was not prejudiced by the short delay ( see Lossino v New York City Tr. Auth., 264 AD2d 383).
