Ordered that the order is affirmed insofar as appealed from, with costs.
The plaintiff allegedly was injured when she tripped and fell on a small, concrete step in front of a model home in a condominium complex owned by the defendants. She alleged that a defect existed because the step's edge was chipped, and the shadow cast from the roof line on the step/walkway area created the illusion that the step and walkway were one level.
Although the issue of whether a dangerous or defective condition exists on property is generally one for the trier of fact, some defects are too trivial to be actionable, and thus present no issue of fact ( see Trincere v. County of Suffolk, 90 NY2d 976; Riser v. New York City Hous. Auth., 260 AD2d 564). Considering all the facts and circumstances of this case, including a review of the photographs of the step/walkway area where the plaintiff fell, the Supreme Court properly concluded that, as a matter of law, the alleged defect, which had no characteristics of a trap or snare, was too trivial to be actionable ( see Trincere v. County of Suffolk, supra; Riser v. New York City Hous. Auth., supra).
The plaintiff's remaining contention is without merit.
