OPINION OF THE COURT

Memorandum.

The order of the Appellate Division should be reversed, with costs, and the matter remitted to that court for a review of the facts. The Appellate Division increased the plottage increment from 5% to 10% as a matter of law. This was error.

In determining an award to an owner of condemned property, the findings must either be within the range of the expert testimony or be supported by other evidence and adequately explained by the court (Matter of City of New York [A. & W. Realty Corp.], 1 NY2d 428, 432-433; Milsap v State of New York, 32 AD2d 586).
