SULLIVAN, J.P., TOM, MAZZARELLI, WALLACH, RUBIN, JJ.
The court properly determined that the sale and disposition of the Coliseum site was not subject to the Uniform Land Use Review Procedure (see, New York City Charter § 197-c; Jo Wo Realty Corp. v. City of New York, 76 N.Y.2d 962; see also, Matter of Waybro Corp. v. Bd. Of Estimate of the City of New York, 67 N.Y.2d 349) and that respondents complied with State Environmental Quality Review Act by identifying the relevant areas of environmental concern and by then taking the required "hard look" at them (see, Matter of Kahn v. Pasnik, 90 N.Y.2d 569; Matter of Jackson v. New York State Urban Dev. Corp., 67 N.Y.2d 400, 417).
THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF SUPREME COURT, APPELLATE DIVISION, FIRST DEPARTMENT.
