MATTER OF W.O.R.C. REALTY v. BD. OF ASSESS

ORDERED that the order is affirmed insofar as appealed from, with costs.

The Supreme Court properly denied that branch of the appellants' motion which was to dismiss the petition. Contrary to the appellants' contention, the petitioner is an aggrieved party entitled to bring this proceeding to review a tax assessment of the real property at issue for the tax year 1993-1994, as its "pecuniary interests are or may be adversely affected by an illegal assessment" (Matter of Ames Dept. Stores v. Assessor of Town of Concord, 102 A.D.2d 9, 11; see, Real Property Tax Law — 704[1]; Matter of Mack v. Assessor of Town of Ramapo, 72 A.D.2d 604).

The appellants' remaining contentions are without merit.
