Moreover, the lease authorized the premises to be used for research purposes “ and for any other purposes as authorized by the Zoning Board of Appeals of the Village of Irvington * * That provision indicates that the parties did not contemplate that the representations made to the village board on the application for the variance were to be finally controlling as between themselves.
