DISSENTING OPINION BY MR. JUSTICE ROBERTS:

The model apartment built by appellant is, in my view, a permanent structure within the meaning of the Mechanics' Lien Law. Thus, I believe the court below erred in striking the lien and would remand the case for determination of unresolved factual issues.
