Appeal from the Supreme Court, Kings County (Krausman, J.).

Ordered that the order is affirmed, with costs.

The Supreme Court correctly determined that the defendant New York City Housing Authority had no duty to protect the plaintiff from a mugging on an exterior public walkway within the confines of a housing project (see, Allen v. New York City Hous. Auth., 203 A.D.2d 313; Matter of Sanchez v. New York City Hous. Auth., 194 A.D.2d 613). Sullivan, J.P., Rosenblatt, Altman, Hart and Friedmann, JJ., concur.
