Opinion On review of submissions pursuant to section 500.11 of the Rules of the Court of Appeals (22 NYCRR 500.11 ), order reversed, with costs, order of Supreme Court, New York County, reinstated, and certified question answered in the negative. The City was entitled to judgment as a matter of law. The markings on the Big Apple Map failed to raise an issue of fact as to whether the City had prior written notice of the alleged defect.
