McCreedy and Schreiber, Inc., Respondent, v 37 West 46th Street Realty Corp., Appellant.
[644 NYS2d 3]

Neither the antisubrogation rule nor the provisions of the lease preclude plaintiff subrogee from recovering for the payment on plaintiff’s claim for water damage to its inventory as a result of defendant’s negligence. Defendant was insured by a different carrier, Allcity Insurance Company, for the risk covered herein and thus, the public policy considerations underlying the antisubrogation rule are inapplicable (Wright v McCann & Son, 216 AD2d 73 ). Concur—Sullivan, J. P., Ellerin, Nardelli and Tom, JJ.
