DECISION ORDER
ORDERED that the order is reversed insofar as appealed from, on the law, with costs, the motion is granted, the complaint is dismissed insofar as asserted against the appellants, and the action against the remaining defendant is severed.
The plaintiff allegedly sustained personal injuries as a result of a slip and fall on spilled liquid while descending the stairs between the fourth and fifth floors of the high-rise apartment building in which she is a tenant. The building allegedly is owned by the defendant City of New York, and managed and maintained by the appellants.
In support of their motion for summary judgment, the appellants demonstrated, prima facie, that they had neither actual nor constructive notice of the spilled liquid that allegedly caused the plaintiff's fall (see Blaszczyk v. Ricco, 266 A.D.2d 491). In opposition thereto, the plaintiff failed to demonstrate the existence of a triable issue of fact. The wholly conclusory affidavit of a resident of a third-floor apartment who claimed to have made "numerous verbal complaints" about various unsanitary conditions on the stairs failed to establish the existence of a specific recurring condition, and was legally insufficient to constitute notice of the particular condition that caused the plaintiff's fall (see Piacquadio v. Recine Realty Corp., 84 N.Y.2d 967, 969; Gloria v. MGM Emerald Enters., 298 A.D.2d 355, 356).
The plaintiff's remaining contentions lack merit.
