In the Matter of ROCHESTER URBAN RENEWAL AGENCY, Appellant, Relative to Acquiring Title to Real Property for the Third Ward Urban Renewal Project NYR-144 in the City of Rochester. HENRY SIEBERT SONS, INC., Respondent.

Judgment unanimously affirmed, with costs. Memorandum: The principal argument for reversal made by appellant herein is that the judgment cannot stand because the trial court failed to disclose the details of its computations in arriving at its award. There was essential agreement by the opposing appraisers as to the highest and best use of the condemned property; and both used the market data approach in their evaluation thereof. Appellant's appraiser, however, estimated the subject property at 75 cents per square foot, whereas respondent's appraiser estimated it at $2.20 per square foot. The court found that the appropriated land contained 11,682 square feet and that it had a value of $2 per square foot or the sum of $23,364 less $4,000, the amount which the appellant's appraiser estimated to be the cost of demolishing existing valueless structures thereon. Thus, the court awarded to respondent owner the sum of $19,364, less the prepaid sum of $4,800, to which was added interest and costs and disbursements. The award is within the testimony of the experts and the record supports the trial court's determination (Matter of City of New York [A. W. Realty Corp.], 1 N.Y.2d 428, 433; Miller Paper Co. v State of New York, 34 A.D.2d 880; Matter of City of Binghamton v Meagher, 28 A.D.2d 1060).
