   29  sion remains unpaid, in whole or in  part,  more  than  forty-five  days
   30  after  written  demand  for payment has been sent by first class mail to

   52  court pursuant to the civil practice law and  rules  and  shall  in  all
   53  respects  be  governed  by  that chapter and may be enforced in the same
   54  manner and with the same effect as that provided by law  in  respect  to

   13  prime source of revenue from the operation of such premises. The forego-
   14  ing provisions of this subdivision  shall  not  apply  to  any  premises
   15  located  at,  in,  or  on the area leased by the city of New York to New
