2006 New York Code - Direction That A Part Be Laid Off.

 
    §  1074.  Direction  that  a  part be laid off. In a case specified in
  section 1071, where the property, or a part thereof, consists of one  or
  more  vacant  or  unimproved lots, the plaintiff's consent may contain a
  stipulation to take a distinct parcel, out of those lots, in lieu  of  a
  gross  sum.  In  that  case,  the  interlocutory  judgment,  instead  of
  directing a sale, may direct if it appears to be just  so  to  do,  that
  commissioners  be  appointed to admeasure and lay off to the plaintiff a
  distinct parcel, out of the vacant or unimproved lots; and, if there  is
  any  other property, that it be sold, and a gross sum be paid to her out
  of the proceeds thereof, as prescribed in sections 1075, 1076, 1077  and
  1078. The plaintiff's title to each distinct parcel, admeasured and laid
  off  to  her,  as  prescribed  in  this section, is that of an estate of
  inheritance in fee simple. In admeasuring and laying off the  same,  the
  commissioners  must  consider quantity and quality relatively, according
  to the value of  the  plaintiff's  right  of  dower  in  the  vacant  or
  unimproved  lots,  out  of  which the admeasurement is to be made; which
  must be ascertained, in proportion  to  the  value  of  those  lots,  as
  prescribed in sections 1075, 1076, 1077 and 1078, for fixing a gross sum
  to be paid to her out of the proceeds of a sale.
