Head Matter:
Edla Widlund, Respondent, v. Mayer Harris, Appellant.

Opinion:
Judgment and order unanimously affirmed, with costs. The landlord, although not obligated to make repairs, voluntarily assumed to put a new flooring in the balcony, which was part of the demised premises. He created a dangerous place without notice to the tenant, and he is legally accountable for this negligent act. Present — Kelly, P. J., Rich, Manning, Kelby and Young, JJ.
