PART I

Item 1.  Business

        The Company's business objective is to maximize shareholder value. The
Company intends to achieve its business objective by continuing to pursue its   
investment philosophy, making opportunistic investments and executing its       
operating strategies through:                                                   

o    Maintaining a superior team of operating and investment
        professionals and an opportunistic entrepreneurial spirit;

       o    Investing in properties in the New York City metropolitan area
            and other selected markets where the Company believes there is
high likelihood of capital appreciation;          

       o    Acquiring high quality properties at a discount to replacement

         o    Investing in retail properties in selected understored locations

      o    Investing in fully integrated operating companies that have a
           significant real estate component with qualified, experienced
        operating management and strong growth potential which can
         benefit from the Company's access to efficient capital; and

         o    Developing and redeveloping the Company's existing properties to
increase returns and maximize value.              

The Company expects to finance its growth, acquisitions and investments using   
internally generated funds, funds from possible asset sales and by accessing the
public and private capital markets.

One Penn Plaza                                                            

       In February 1998, the Company acquired a long-term leasehold interest
in One Penn Plaza for approximately $410,000,000. One Penn Plaza is a 57 story  
Manhattan office building containing approximately 2,400,000 square feet and    
encompasses substantially the entire square block bounded by 33rd Street, 34th

Charles E. Smith Commercial Realty L.P.                                         

On March 4, 1999, the Company made an additional $242,000,000 
investment in CESCR by contributing to CESCR the land under certain CESCR office
properties in Crystal City, Arlington, Virginia and partnership interests in    
certain CESCR subsidiaries. The Company acquired these assets from Commonwealth 
Atlantic Properties, Inc. ("CAPI"), an affiliate of Lazard Freres Real Estate   
Investors L.L.C., immediately prior to the contribution to CESCR. Together with 
the Company's investment in CESCR made in 1997 and the units it reacquired on   
March 4, 1999 from Vornado Operating Company, the Company owns approximately 34%
of CESCR's limited partnership units. In addition, the Company acquired from    
CAPI for $8,000,000 the land under a Marriott Hotel located in Crystal City.    

      The purchase price was paid to CAPI by the Company issuing $250,000,000 of
6% Convertible Preferred Units of the Operating Partnership. The Preferred Units
are convertible at $44 per unit and the coupon increases to 6.50% over the next 
three years and then fixes at 6.75% in year eight. The Company will appoint one 
of three members to CESCR's Board of Managers, increasing under certain         
circumstances to two of four members in March 2002.                             

     In connection with these transactions, the Company made a five-year
$41,000,000 loan to CAPI with interest at 8%, increasing to 9% ratably over the 
term. The loan is secured by approximately $55,000,000 of the Operating         
Partnership's units issued to CAPI as well as certain real estate assets.

    In November 1998, the Company completed the acquisition of certain
properties from the Mendik Real Estate Limited Partnership ("Mendik RELP"). The

(iii) a leasehold interest in an office building located at 330 West 34th       
Street, also in Manhattan, which contains approximately 628,000 square feet. The

of cash, $29,000,000 of Vornado's common shares and $46,000,000 of debt. An     
equivalent number of units were issued to Vornado for the shares issued.

Spin-off of Vornado Operating Company                                           

General                                                                     

      Vornado Operating Company, ("Vornado Operating") was incorporated on
October 30, 1997, as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. In order to      
maintain its status as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, the Company is   
required to focus principally on investment in real estate assets. Accordingly, 
the Company is prevented from owning certain assets and conducting certain      
activities that would be inconsistent with its status as a REIT. Vornado        
Operating was formed to own assets that Vornado could not itself own and conduct
activities that Vornado could not itself conduct. Vornado Operating is intended 
to function principally as an operating company, in contrast to the Company's   
principal focus on investment in real estate assets. Vornado Operating is able  
to do so because it is taxable as a regular "C" corporation rather than a REIT. 

  Vornado Operating will seek to become the operator of businesses
conducted at properties it leases from the Company, as contemplated by the      
Intercompany Agreement between the Company and Vornado Operating (the           
"Intercompany Agreement"), referred to below. Vornado Operating expects to rely 
exclusively on the Company to identify business opportunities and currently     
expects that those opportunities will relate in some manner to the Company and  
its real estate investments rather than to unrelated businesses.                

The Distribution                                                            

         On October 16, 1998, the Operating Partnership made a distribution (the
"Distribution") of one share of common stock, par value $.01 per share (the     
"Common Stock"), of Vornado Operating for 20 units of limited partnership       
interest of the Operating Partnership (including units owned by Vornado) held of
record as of the close of business on October 9, 1998 and Vornado in turn made a
distribution of the Common Stock it received to the holders of its common shares
of beneficial interest. While no Common Stock was distributed in respect of     
Vornado's $3.25 Series A Convertible Preferred Shares, the Company adjusted the 
Conversion Price to take into account the Distribution. Vornado Operating's     
Common Stock is listed on the American Stock Exchange under the symbol "VOO".

Capital Contribution and Revolving Credit Agreement.                        

    The Company initially capitalized Vornado Operating with an equity
contribution of $25,000,000 of cash. As part of its formation, Vornado Operating
was granted a $75,000,000 unsecured five-year revolving credit facility from    
Vornado (the "Revolving Credit Agreement"). Borrowings under the Revolving      
Credit Agreement bear interest at a floating rate per annum equal to LIBOR plus 
3%. Commencing January 1, 1999, Vornado Operating pays the Company a commitment 
fee equal to 1% per annum on the average daily unused portion of the facility.  
Amounts may be borrowed under the Revolving Credit Agreement, repaid and        
reborrowed from time to time on a revolving basis (so long as the principal     
amount outstanding at any time does not exceed $75,000,000). Only interest and  
commitment fees are payable under the Revolving Credit Agreement until it       
expires. The Revolving Credit Agreement prohibits Vornado Operating from        
incurring indebtedness to third parties (other than certain purchase money debt 
and certain other exceptions) and prohibits Vornado Operating from paying       
dividends. Debt under the Revolving Credit Agreement is recourse to Vornado     
Operating.                                                                      

Intercompany Agreement.                                                     

      The Company and Vornado Operating have entered into the Intercompany
Agreement pursuant to which, among other things, (a) the Company will under     
certain circumstances offer Vornado Operating an opportunity to become the      
lessee of certain real property owned now or in the future by the Company (under
mutually satisfactory lease terms) and (b) Vornado Operating will not make any  
real estate investment or other REIT-Qualified Investment unless it first offers
the Company the opportunity to make such investment and the Company has rejected
that opportunity.                                                               

     Under the Intercompany Agreement, the Company has agreed to provide
Vornado Operating with certain administrative, corporate, accounting, financial,
insurance, legal, tax, data processing, human resources and operational         
services. For these services, Vornado Operating will compensate the Company in  
an amount determined in good faith by the Company as the amount an unaffiliated 
third party would charge Vornado Operating for comparable services and will     
reimburse the Company for certain costs incurred and paid to third parties on   
behalf of Vornado Operating. For the period from October 16, 1998 (commencement 
date) to December 31, 1998, approximately $50,000 of compensation for such      
services was charged pursuant to the Intercompany Agreement.                    

        Vornado Operating and the Company each have the right to terminate the
Intercompany Agreement if the other party is in material default of the         
Intercompany Agreement or upon 90 days written notice to the other party at any 
time after December 31, 2003. In addition, the Company has the right to         
terminate the Intercompany Agreement upon a change in control of Vornado        
Operating.                                                                      

Vornado Operating's Management.                                             

   Messrs. Roth, Fascitelli, West and Wight are directors of Vornado
Operating. Mr. Roth is also Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of
Vornado Operating, Mr. Fascitelli is also President of Vornado Operating, and   
certain other members of the Company's senior management hold a corresponding   
position with Vornado Operating.

The Cold Storage Companies                                                  

         On October 31, 1997, partnerships (the "Vornado/Crescent Partnerships")
in which affiliates of the Company have a 60% interest and affiliates of        
Crescent Real Estate Equities Company have a 40% interest acquired each of      
AmeriCold Corporation ("Americold") and URS Logistics, Inc. ("URS"). In June    
1998, the Vornado/Crescent Partnerships acquired the assets of Freezer Services,
Inc. and in July 1998 acquired the Carmar Group (Americold, URS, Freezer        
Services, Inc. and the Carmar Group, collectively, the "Cold Storage            
Companies").                                                                    

      On March 12, 1999, the Vornado/Crescent Partnerships sold all of the
non-real estate assets of the Cold Storage Companies encompassing the operations
of the cold storage business for approximately $48,000,000 to a new partnership 
owned 60% by Vornado Operating Company and 40% by Crescent Operating Inc. The   
new partnership leases the underlying cold storage warehouses used in this      
business from the Vornado/Crescent Partnerships which continue to own the real  
estate. The leases have a 15 year term with two-five year renewal options and   
provide for the payment of fixed base rent and percentage rent based on customer
revenues. The new partnership is required to pay for all costs arising from the 
operation, maintenance and repair of the properties as well as property capital 
expenditures in excess of $5,000,000 annually. Fixed base rent and percentage   
rent for the initial lease year is projected to be approximately $151 million.  
The new partnership has the right to defer a portion of the rent for up to three
years beginning on March 12, 1999 to the extent that available cash, as defined 
in the leases, is insufficient to pay such rent.                                

Disposition and Acquisition of Interest in CESCR                            

  On December 31, 1998, the Company sold approximately 1.7% of the
outstanding partnership units of CESCR, (a Delaware limited partnership that    
owns interests in and manages approximately 10,700,000 square feet of office    
properties in Crystal City, Arlington, Virginia, a suburb of Washington, D.C.,  
and manages an additional 14,600,000 square feet of office and other commercial 
properties in the Washington, D.C. area) to Vornado Operating Company for an    
aggregate purchase price of approximately $12,900,000, or $34 per unit (which is
the price at which CESCR issued partnership units in October 1998 in connection 
with a significant "roll-up" transaction). The purchase price was funded out of 
Vornado Operating's working capital. After giving effect to this purchase, the  
Company owned approximately 9.6% of CESCR as of December 31, 1998. In connection
with this purchase, the Company granted to Vornado Operating an option to       
require the Company to repurchase all of the CESCR units at the price at which  
Vornado Operating purchased the CESCR units, plus a cumulative return on such   
amount at a rate of 10% per annum. The option was exercised on March 4, 1999.   
Accordingly, the Company reacquired the CESCR units from Vornado Operating for  
$13,200,000.                                                                    

Financing Activities                                                            

Corporate:                                                                  

       In April 1998, Vornado completed the sale of 10,000,000 common shares
pursuant to an effective registration statement with net proceeds of            
approximately $401,000,000. Also in April 1998, Vornado sold 1,132,420 common   
shares to a unit investment trust, which were valued for the purpose of the     
trust at $41.06 per share, resulting in net proceeds of approximately           
$44,000,000. An equivalent number of units were issued to Vornado for the shares
sold.                                                                           

     In November and December of 1998, the Operating Partnership sold an
aggregate of $87,500,000 of 8.5% Series D-1 Cumulative Redeemable Preferred     
Units to an institutional investor in a private placement, resulting in net     
proceeds of approximately $85,300,000. The perpetual Preferred Units may be     
called without penalty at the option of the Operating Partnership commencing on 
November 12, 2003.                                                              

        On March 17, 1999, Vornado completed the sale of 3 million 8.5% Series
B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares, at a price $25.00 per share, pursuant 
to an effective registration statement with net proceeds of approximately       
$72,200,000. Further on March 22, 1999, 400,000 shares were sold when the       
underwriters exercised their over-allotment option resulting in additional net  
proceeds of $9,700,000. The perpetual preferred shares may be called without    
penalty at the option of Vornado commencing on March 17, 2004. An equivalent    
number of units were issued ot Vornado for the shares sold.

Office:                                                                   

       In June 1998, the Company completed a $275,000,000 refinancing of its
One Penn Plaza office building and borrowed $170,000,000 pursuant thereto. In   
the third quarter of 1998, the Company borrowed the remaining $105,000,000. The 
debt matures in June 2002, is prepayable at anytime, and bears interest at LIBOR
+ 1.25% (currently 6.35%). This debt replaced the $93,000,000 bridge-mortgage   
loan financing put in place when the property was acquired.                     

       In February 1999, the Company completed a $165,000,000 refinancing of
its Two Penn Plaza office building and prepaid the then existing $80,000,000    
debt on the property. The new 5-year debt matures in February 2004 and bears    
interest at 7.08%.                                                              

Retail:                                                                   

       In February 1998, the Company completed a $160,000,000 refinancing of
the Green Acres Mall and prepaid the then existing $118,000,000 debt on the     
property. The new 10-year debt matures in March 2008 and bears interest at      
6.75%.                                                                          

Cold Storage:                                                             

    In April 1998, the Cold Storage Companies completed a $550,000,000
ten-year loan secured by 58 of its warehouses. The loan bears interest at 6.89%.
The net proceeds from the loan together with working capital were used to repay 
$607,000,000 of bridge financing, which replaced high yield debt assumed at the 
date of acquisition.                                                            

Merchandise Mart Properties:                                              

        In June 1998, the Company repaid the $26,000,000 mortgage on 350 North
Orleans Street, in Chicago.                                                     

In November 1998, the terms of the $24,000,000 mortgage on the
Washington Design Center were modified to adjust the interest rate from LIBOR + 
3.00% to LIBOR + 1.35% (currently 6.45%) and to extend the maturity date from   
April 2000 to November 2000.                                                    

  In February 1999, the Company exercised its option to extend the
maturity date on the $250,000,000 loan on its Chicago Merchandise Mart building 
from March 31, 1999 to September 30, 1999. In connection therewith, the Company 
paid a fee of 1/8%.                                                             

     At December 31, 1998, the ratio of debt-to-enterprise value (market
equity value plus debt less cash) was 45% based on debt of $2.8 billion which   
included the Company's proportionate share of debt of partially-owned entities. 
Historically, the Company has maintained a lower debt-to-enterprise value ratio.
In the future, in connection with its strategy for growth, this percentage may  
change. The Company's policy concerning the incurrence of debt may be reviewed  
and modified from time to time by the Company without the vote of shareholders. 

       The Company may seek to obtain funds through equity offerings or debt
financing, although there is no express policy with respect thereto. Vornado may
offer its shares or Operating Partnership units in exchange for property and may
repurchase or otherwise reacquire its shares or any other securities in the     
future.

Relationship with Alexander's                                                   

     The Company owns 29.3% of the outstanding shares of common stock of
Alexander's. See "Interstate Properties" below for a description of Interstate's
ownership of the Company and Alexander's.                                       

         Alexander's has eight properties (see Item 2. Properties--Alexander's).

    In March 1995, the Company lent Alexander's $45,000,000. The loan,
which was originally scheduled to mature in March 1998, has been renewed for two
additional one year periods and currently matures in March 2000. The interest   
rate was reset in March 1999 from 13.87% per annum to 14.18% per annum.         
Management believes there are no indications of impairment as discussed in      
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 114, "Accounting by Creditors   
for Impairment of a Loan".                                                      

     The Company manages, develops and leases the Alexander's properties
under a management and development agreement (the "Management Agreement") and a 
leasing agreement (the "Leasing Agreement") pursuant to which the Company       
receives annual fees from Alexander's. These Agreements have a one-year term    
expiring in March of each year and are automatically renewable.                 

         Alexander's common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under
the symbol "ALX".                                                               

Interstate Properties                                                           

    As of December 31, 1998, Interstate Properties owned approximately
18.1% of the common shares of beneficial interest of Vornado, 27.1% of          
Alexander's common stock and beneficial ownership of 14.8% of Vornado Operating.
Interstate Properties is a general partnership in which Steven Roth, David      
Mandelbaum and Russell B. Wight, Jr. are partners. Mr. Roth is the Chairman of  
the Board and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, the Managing General      
Partner of Interstate Properties, and the Chief Executive Officer and a director
of both Alexander's and Vornado Operating. Mr. Wight is a trustee of the Company
and is also a director of both Alexander's and Vornado Operating. Mr. Mandelbaum
is a trustee of the Company and is also a director of Alexander's               

Competition                                                                     

        The Company's four business segments, Office, Retail, Cold Storage and
Merchandise Mart Properties, operate in highly competitive environments. The    
Company's success depends upon, among other factors, the trends of the national 
and local economies, the financial condition and operating results of current   
and prospective tenants and customers, the availability and cost of capital,    
construction and renovation costs, income tax laws, governmental regulations,   
legislation and population trends. The Company competes with a large number of  
real estate property owners. Principal factors of competition are rent charged, 
attractiveness of property and the quality and breadth of services provided .   
The Company has a large concentration of properties in the New York City        
metropolitan area, a highly competitive market. The economic condition of this  
market may be significantly influenced by supply and demand for space and the   
financial performance and productivity of the publishing, retail,               
pharmaceutical, insurance and finance industries.

Environmental Regulations                                                       

Under various Federal, state and local laws, ordinances and   
regulations, a current or previous owner or operator of real estate may be      
required to investigate and clean up certain hazardous or toxic substances      
released at a property, and may be held liable to a governmental entity or to   
third parties for property damage or personal injuries and for investigation and
clean-up costs incurred by the parties in connection with the contamination.    
Such laws often impose liability without regard to whether the owner or operator
knew of, or was responsible for, the release of such substances. The presence of
contamination or the failure to remediate contamination may adversely affect the
owner's ability to sell or lease real estate or to borrow using the real estate 
as collateral. Other Federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations  
require abatement or removal of certain asbestos-containing materials in the    
event of demolition or certain renovations or remodeling and also govern        
emissions of and exposure to asbestos fibers in the air. The operation and      
subsequent removal of certain underground storage tanks are also regulated by   
Federal and state laws. In connection with the ownership, operation and         
management of its properties, the Company could be held liable for the costs of 
remedial action with respect to such regulated substances or tanks or related   
claims.                                                                         

        Each of the Company's properties has been subjected to varying degrees
of environmental assessment at various times. The environmental assessments did 
not reveal any material environmental condition. However, there can be no       
assurance that the identification of new areas of contamination, change in the  
extent or known scope of contamination, the discovery of additional sites, or   
changes in cleanup requirements would not result in significant costs to the    
Company.                                                                        

Certain Activities                                                              

       Acquisitions and investments are not necessarily required to be based
on specific allocation by type of property. The Company has historically held   
its properties for long-term investment; however, it is possible that properties
in the portfolio may be sold in whole or in part, as circumstances warrant, from
time to time. Further, the Company has not adopted a policy that limits the     
amount or percentage of assets which would be invested in a specific property.  
While the Company may seek the vote of its shareholders in connection with any  
particular material transaction, generally the Company's activities are reviewed
and may be modified from time to time by its Board of Trustees without the vote 
of shareholders.                                                                

Employees                                                                       

     The Company has approximately 600 employees consisting of 88 in the
Office Properties segment, 53 in the Retail Properties segment, 384 in the      
Merchandise Mart Properties segment and 75 in the corporate office. This does   
not include employees of partially-owned entities such as the 5,500 employees of
the Cold Storage Companies and the 400 employees at the Hotel Pennsylvania.     

Segment Data                                                                    

    The Company operates in four business segments: Office Properties,
Retail Properties, Cold Storage and Merchandise Mart Properties. The Company    
engages in no foreign operations.                                               

        The Company's principal executive offices are located at Park 80 West,
Plaza II, Saddle Brook, New Jersey 07663; telephone (201) 587-1000.

       The Company's office properties consist of (i) all or a portion of 21
office buildings in the New York City metropolitan area (primarily Manhattan)   
containing approximately 12.5 million square feet (including 720,000 square feet
of retail space and 5 garages containing 334,000 square feet) (collectively, the
"New York City Office Properties") and (ii) a 34% interest in Charles E. Smith  
Commercial Realty, L.P. which owns interests in and manages approximately 10.7  
million square feet of office properties in Northern Virginia and Washington    
D.C. (the "CESCR Office Properties").                                           

      The following data on pages 16 to 20 covers the New York City Office

       The average lease term of a tenant's lease is approximately 12 years.
Leases typically provide for step-ups in rent periodically over the term of the 
lease and pass through to tenants the tenant's share of increases in real estate
taxes and operating expenses for a building over a base year. Electricity is    
provided to tenants on a submetered basis or included in rent based on surveys  
and adjusted for subsequent utility rate increases. Leases also typically       
provide for tenant improvement allowances for all or a portion of the tenant's  
initial construction of its premises. None of the tenants in the office segment 
accounted for more than 10% of the Company's total revenue. Below is a listing  
of the New York City Office Properties tenants which accounted for 2% or more of
the New York City Office Properties revenues in 1998:

Retail                                                                          

      The Company owns 59 shopping center properties of which 56 are strip
shopping centers primarily located in the Northeast and Midatlantic states, two 
are regional centers located in San Juan, Puerto Rico and one, the Green Acres  
Mall, is a super-regional center located in Nassau County, Long Island, New     
York. The Company's shopping centers are generally located on major regional    
highways in mature densely populated areas. The Company believes its shopping   
centers attract consumers from a regional, rather than a neighborhood           
marketplace because of their location on regional highways.                     

      As of March 1, 1999, the occupancy rate of the retail properties was
93%. The following table sets forth the occupancy rate and the average annual   
base rent per square foot (excluding the Green Acres Mall) for the properties at
the end of each of the past five years.

 1994               9,501,000           94%               8.05

       The average annual base rent per square foot at December 31, 1998 for
the Green Acres Mall was $12.92 in total and $32.24 for mall tenants only.      

         The Company's shopping center lease terms range from five years or less
in some instances, for smaller tenant spaces to as long as thirty years for     
major tenants. Leases generally provide for additional rents based on a         
percentage of tenant's sales and pass through to tenants the tenant's share of  
all common area charges (including roof and structure in strip shopping centers,
unless it is the tenant's direct responsibility), real estate taxes and         
insurance costs and certain capital expenditures. Percentage rent accounted for 
less than 2% of total shopping center revenues in 1998. None of the tenants in  
the Retail Segment accounted for more than 10% of the Company's total revenues. 

         Below is a listing of the Retail tenants which accounted for 2% or more
of the Retail property rentals in 1998:

(1)  Excludes the 14th Street and Union Square Property currently leased to 
Bradlees- see below.                                              

     In June 1995, Bradlees filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the
U.S. Bankruptcy Code. Bradlees emerged from bankruptcy in January 1999 when its 
plan of reorganization was confirmed. The Company withdrew its objection to     
Bradlees' proposed plan of reorganization after obtaining Bradlees' agreement   
that its lease of the Company's 14th Street and Union Square property would     
terminate in March 2000. The lease was scheduled to expire in October 2019, and 
contained an option to renew for an additional ten years. In addition, the rent 
under the lease was increased by $1,100,000 per annum to $3,400,000 per annum   
from January 1999 to the March 2000 termination date. In connection with the

to 70% of the rent.

        The Company's strip shopping centers are substantially leased to large
stores (over 20,000 square feet). Tenants include destination retailers such as 
discount department stores, supermarkets, home improvements stores, discount    
apparel stores, membership warehouse clubs and "category killers." Category     
killers are large stores which offer a complete selection of a category of items
(e.g., toys, office supplies, etc.) at low prices, often in a warehouse format. 
Tenants typically offer basic consumer necessities such as food, health and     
beauty aids, moderately priced clothing, building materials and home improvement
supplies, and compete primarily on the basis of price.                          

        The Company's two regional shopping centers located in Montehiedra and
Caguas, Puerto Rico, (both of which are in the San Juan area) contain 1,014,000 
square feet of which the Company owns 727,000 square feet. The centers are      
anchored by four major stores: Sears, Roebuck and Co., Kmart (one in each of the
centers) and a Builders Square Home Improvement store.                          

  The Green Acres Mall is a 1.6 million square foot super-regional
enclosed shopping mall complex situated in Nassau County, Long Island, New York,
approximately one mile east of the borough of Queens, New York. The Green Acres 
Mall is anchored by four major department stores: Sears, Roebuck and Co., J.C.  
Penney Company, Inc. and Federated Department Stores, Inc. doing business as    
Stern's and as Macy's. The complex also includes The Plaza at Green Acres, a    
188,000 square foot strip shopping center which is anchored by Kmart and        
Waldbaums.

Cold Storage                                                                    

     The Company has a 60% interest in the Vornado/Crescent Partnerships
that currently own 88 refrigerated warehouses with an aggregate of approximately
450 million cubic feet (excludes 13 additional warehouses containing            
approximately 80 million cubic feet managed by the Cold Storage Companies doing 
business as AmeriCold Logistics). The Cold Storage segment is headquartered in  
Atlanta, Georgia.                                                               

      On March 12, 1999, the Vornado/Crescent Partnerships sold all of the
non-real estate assets of AmeriCold Logistics encompassing the operations of the
cold storage business for approximately $48,000,000 to a new partnership owned  
60% by Vornado Operating Company and 40% by Crescent Operating Inc. The new     
partnership leases the underlying cold storage warehouses used in this business 
from the Vornado/Crescent Partnerships which continue to own the real estate.   
The leases have a 15 year term with two-five year renewal options and provide   
for the payment of fixed base rent and percentage rent based on customer        
revenues. The new partnership is required to pay for all costs arising from the 
operation, maintenance and repair of the properties as well as property capital 
expenditures in excess of $5,000,000 annually. Fixed base rent and percentage   
rent for the initial lease year is projected to be approximately $151 million.  
The new partnership has the right to defer a portion of the rent for up to three

         AmeriCold Logistics provides the frozen food industry with refrigerated
warehousing and transportation management services. Refrigerated warehouses are 
comprised of production and distribution facilities. Production facilities      
typically serve one or a small number of customers, generally food processors,  
located nearby. These customers store large quantities of processed or partially
processed products in the facility until they are shipped to the next stage of  
production or distribution. Distribution facilities primarily warehouse a wide  
variety of customers' finished products until future shipment to end-users. Each
distribution facility primarily services the surrounding regional market.       
AmeriCold Logistics' transportation management services include freight routing,
dispatching, freight rate negotiation, backhaul coordination, freight bill      
auditing, network flow management, order consolidation and distribution channel 
assessment. AmeriCold Logistics' temperature-controlled logistics expertise and 
access to both frozen food warehouses and distribution channels enable its      
customers to respond quickly and efficiently to time-sensitive orders from      
distributors and retailers.                                                     

        AmeriCold Logistics' customers consist primarily of national, regional
and local frozen food manufacturers, distributors, retailers and food service   
organizations which include Con-Agra, Inc., Tyson Foods, H.J. Heinz & Co.,      
McCain Foods, Pillsbury, Sara Lee, Phillip Morris, J.R. Simplot, Farmland       
Industries and Unilever.

Merchandise Mart Properties                                                     

     The Merchandise Mart Properties are a portfolio of seven properties
containing an aggregate of approximately 6.7 million square feet. The properties
are used for offices (34%), showrooms (63%) and retail stores (3%). The Company 
acquired these assets in separate transactions in 1998. In April 1998, the      
Company purchased four buildings containing approximately 5.4 million square    
feet from the Kennedy Family, including the 3.4 million square foot Merchandise 
Mart building in Chicago, the adjacent 350 North Orleans Street building, the   
Washington Office Center and the adjacent Washington Design Center. In December

       The following table sets forth the percentage of the Merchandise Mart
Properties office revenues by tenant's industry:                                

Industry                      Percentage      
--------                      ----------      

Government                        40.4%       
Service                           20.3%       
Telecommunications                16.2%       
Insurance                         12.9%       
Pharmaceutical                     4.9%       
Other                              5.3%       

The average lease term of a tenant's lease is 10 years. Leases
typically provide for step-ups in rent periodically over the term of the lease  
and pass through to tenants the tenant's share of increases in real estate taxes
and operating expenses for a building over a base year. Electricity is provided 
to tenants on a submetered basis or included in rent based on surveys and       
adjusted for subsequent utility rate increases. Leases also typically provide   
for tenant improvement allowances for all or a portion of the tenant's initial  
construction of its premises. None of the tenants in the Merchandise Mart       
Properties segment accounted for more than 10% of the Company's total revenue.  
Below is a listing of the Merchandise Mart Properties office tenants which      
accounted for 2% or more of the Merchandise Mart Properties' revenues in 1998:

       Alexander's estimates that its capital expenditures for redevelopment
projects at the above properties will include: (i) approximately $100,000,000   
for the redevelopment of its Paramus property, (ii) approximately $30,000,000 to
renovate the mall and $15,000,000 to renovate the Macy's store at its Kings     
Plaza Regional Shopping Center and (iii) more than $300,000,000 to develop its  
Lexington Avenue site. While Alexander's anticipates that financing will be     
available after tenants have been obtained for these redevelopment projects,    
there can be no assurance that such financing will be obtained, or if obtained, 
that such financings will be on terms that are acceptable to the Company. In    
addition, it is uncertain as to when these projects will commence.

 (1) EBITDA represents net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and
      amortization, extraordinary or non-recurring items, gains or losses on
  sales of real estate and the effect of straight-lining of property
        rentals for rent escalations. Management considers EBITDA a supplemental
 measure for making decisions and assessing the performance of its
   segments. EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures
employed by other companies.                                    
(2) Other includes (i) the operations of the Company's warehouse and    
  industrial properties, (ii) investments in the Hotel Pennsylvania,
    Alexander's, and Newkirk Joint Ventures, (iii) corporate general and
  administrative expenses and (iv) unallocated investment income and
interest and debt expense.                                      
 (3) Includes adding back of (i) $4,287 of income taxes and related items,
        which are considered non-recurring because of the expected conversion of
      the Cold Storage Companies to REITS and (ii) non-recurring unification
costs of $4,585.                                                
  (4) Primarily represents the Company's equity in Alexander's loss from the
write-off of the carrying value of Alexander's Lexington Avenue 
buildings.                                                      
(5) Interest and debt expense, depreciation and amortization and        
        straight-lining of rents included in the reconciliation of net income to
       EBITDA reflects amounts which are netted in income from partially-owned
entities.

 (1) Retail general and administrative expenses are included in corporate expenses which are not allocated.                   
 (2) Of this increase: (i) $6,631 is attributable to acquisitions, (ii) $4,641 resulted from payroll, primarily for additional
     employees and corporate office expenses, and (iii) $3,758 resulted from professional fees.                               
 (3) The Company recognized an expense of $22,917 in the prior year representing the amortization of the deferred payment     
     due to the Company's President, which was fully amortized at December 31, 1997.

income (loss) and depreciation) was $3,123 in the year ended December 31, 1998, 
compared to $7,873 in the prior year, a decrease of $4,750. This decrease       
resulted primarily from (i) the Company's equity in the write-off of the        
carrying value of Alexander's Lexington Avenue building, of $4,423, partially   
offset by (ii) income from the commencement of leases at Alexander's Rego Park  
and Kings Plaza store properties and (iii) income from Alexander's acquisition  
of the remaining 50% interest in the Kings Plaza Mall.                          

     Income from partially-owned entities was $32,025 in the year ended December

         Interest and other investment income (interest income on mortgage loans
receivable, other interest income, dividend income and net gains on marketable  
securities) was $24,074 for the year ended December 31, 1998, compared to       
$23,767 in the prior year, an increase of $307. This increase resulted primarily
from gains on the sale of marketable securities of $2,395, partially offset by a
decrease in interest income due to lower average investments this year.         

        Interest and debt expense was $114,686 for the year ended December 31,
1998, compared to $42,888 in the prior year, an increase of $71,798. This       
increase resulted primarily from debt in connection with acquisitions.          

  In the third quarter of 1998, the Company recorded a net gain of
$9,649, in connection with an insurance settlement and condemnation proceeding  
(see Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements).                         

         The minority interest is comprised of a 40% interest in 20 Broad Street
of $651 for the year ended December 31, 1998.                                   

    Preferential allocations to unit holders were $15,532 for the year ended
December 31, 1998, compared to $7,293 in the prior year, an increase of $8,239. 
This increase resulted primarily from the issuance of certain Series B-1, B-2   
and C-1 Convertible Preferred units in connection with acquisitions and the     
issuance of Series D-1 Cumulative Redeemable Preferred units to an institutional

         Tenant expense reimbursements were $36,652 in the year ended December
31, 1997, compared to $26,644 in the prior year, an increase of $10,008. This   
increase was primarily comprised of $11,320 of reimbursements from tenants at   
properties acquired in 1997, partially offset by a reduction in reimbursements  
at the Company's other properties due to lower expenses passed through to       
tenants.                                                                        

        Operating expenses were $74,745 in the year ended December 31, 1997,
as compared to $36,412 in the prior year, an increase of $38,333. This increase 
was primarily comprised of $39,645 of expenses from properties acquired in 1997,
partially offset by lower snow removal costs and repairs and maintenance at the 
Company's other properties.                                                     

          Depreciation and amortization expense increased in 1997 as compared to
1996, primarily as a result of acquisitions.                                    

      General and administrative expenses were $13,580 in the year ended
December 31, 1997 compared to $5,167 in the prior year, an increase of $8,413.  
This increase resulted primarily from (i) Mendik Division payroll and corporate 
office expenses of $2,760, (ii) cash compensation attributable to the employment
of the Company's President of $2,350 and (iii) professional fees of $1,641.

        The Company recognized expense of $22,917 in the year ended December
31, 1997 and $2,083 in the prior year representing the amortization of the      
$25,000 deferred payment due to the Company's President.                        

     Income applicable to Alexander's (loan interest income, equity in
income and depreciation) was $7,873 in the year ended December 31, 1997,        
compared to $7,956 in the prior year, a decrease of $83. This decrease resulted 
primarily from a $327 reduction in loan interest income due to the reset of the 
interest rate on the loan, partially offset by an increase in equity in         
non-recurring income.                                                           

     Income from partially-owned entities was $4,658 in the year ended
December 31, 1997, compared to $1,855 in the prior year, an increase of $2,803. 
This increase consists of: (i) $1,720 from the Cold Storage Companies, (ii) $424
from partially owned properties acquired as part of the Mendik Transaction,     
(iii) $1,055 from the Company's 40% interest in Hotel Pennsylvania and (iv) $85 
from the Company's 15% interest in Charles E. Smith Commercial Realty L.P.,     
partially offset by (v) lower management fee income.                            

     Interest and other investment income (interest income on mortgage
loans receivable, other interest income, dividend income and net gains on       
marketable securities) was $23,767 for the year ended December 31, 1997,        
compared to $6,643 in the prior year, an increase of $17,124. Of this increase, 
$9,047 resulted primarily from income earned on higher average investments      
(resulting from proceeds from stock offerings and temporary borrowings) and     
$7,901 resulted from investments in mortgage loans receivable.                  

         Interest and debt expense was $42,888 for the year ended December 31,
1997, compared to $16,726 in the prior year, an increase of $26,162. Of this    
increase, (i) $13,369 resulted from borrowings under the Company's revolving    
credit facility and a term loan, (ii) $9,009 resulted from debt on the          
properties acquired in the Mendik Transaction and (iii) $3,784 resulted from    
borrowings related to the acquisition of the Montehiedra Town Center in April   
1997.                                                                           

       The preferential allocations to Class C, D and E unitholders in the
Operating Partnership aggregated $7,293 for the year ended December 31, 1997.   

 The preferred unit distributions of $15,549 apply to the 6.5%
preferred shares issued in April 1997 and include accretion of expenses of      
issuing them of $1,918.                                                         

  The Company operates in a manner intended to enable Vornado to
continue to qualify as a REIT under Sections 856-860 of the Internal Revenue    
Code of 1986 as amended. Under those sections, a REIT which distributes at least
95% of its REIT taxable income as a dividend to its shareholders each year and  
which meets certain other conditions will not be taxed on that portion of its   
taxable income which is distributed to its shareholders. Vornado has distributed
to its shareholders an amount greater than its taxable income. Therefore, no    
provision for Federal income taxes is required.

for non-cash items of $11,474, and (iii) the net change in operating assets and 
liabilities of $18,544. The adjustments for non-cash items are primarily

(ii) the effect of straight-lining of rental income of $17,561 and (iii) equity 
in net income of partially-owned entities of $32,025.

Year Ended December 31, 1996                                

        Cash flows provided by operating activities of $70,703 was comprised
of (i) net income of $61,364 and (ii) adjustments for non-cash items of $9,972, 
less (iii) the net change in operating assets and liabilities of $633. The      
adjustments for non-cash items are primarily comprised of depreciation and      
amortization of $12,586 and amortization of deferred officers compensation      
expense of $2,083, partially offset by the effect of straight-lining of rental  
income of $2,676 and equity in income from Alexander's of $1,108. The net change
in "Leasing fees receivable" and "Deferred leasing fee income" included in item 
(iii) above reflects a decrease of $1,717 resulting from the rejection of a     
lease by an Alexander's tenant in March 1996 and an increase of $1,738 resulting
from the releasing of a portion of this space. "Leasing fees receivable" of     
$2,500 were collected during this period.                                       

         Net cash provided by investing activities of $14,912 was comprised of
(i) proceeds from sale or maturity of securities available for sale of $46,734, 
partially offset by (ii) the Company's investment in a mortgage note receivable 
of $17,000 and (iii) capital expenditures of $14,822 (including $8,923 for the  
purchase of an office building).                                                

  Net cash used in financing activities of $15,046 was primarily
comprised of (i) distributions to Class A unitholders of $59,558, (ii) the net  
repayment of borrowings on U.S. Treasury obligations of $34,239, (iii) the net  
repayment on mortgages of $966, partially offset by (iv) net proceeds from the  
issuance of common shares of $73,060 and (v) the proceeds from the exercise of  
stock options of $6,657.                                                        

       Cash increased during the period from December 31, 1995 to December
31, 1996, from $19,127 to $89,696, primarily as the result of the issuance of   
common shares of Vornado in the fourth quarter of 1996 as noted above.          

Certain Cash Requirements                                                   

In January 1999, the Company acquired the leasehold interest in 888 Seventh     
Avenue for approximately $100,000 including $55,000 of indebtedness. Further, in
1999, under the mortgage for the Hotel Pennsylvania, in connection with the     
redevelopment, the Company is required to escrow $37,000.                       

         The Company has budgeted approximately $39,805 for capital expenditures
(excluding acquisitions) over the next year as follows:

(1) Represents the Company's 60% share of the Vornado/Crescent Partnership's  
obligation to fund up to $5,000 of capital expenditures per annum.              

        Tenant allowances and leasing commissions for the New York City Office
properties approximate $21.00 per square foot for renewal space and $52.00 per  
square foot for vacant space. Historically, approximately two-thirds of existing
tenants renew their leases.                                                     

         In addition to the capital expenditures reflected above, the Company is
currently engaged in or considering certain multi-year development and          
redevelopment projects for which it has budgeted approximately $387 million as  
outlined in the "Development and Redevelopment Projects" section of Item        
1--Business (Items (i) through (vi)). The $387 million does not include amounts 
for other projects which are also included in the "Development and Redevelopment
Projects" section of Item 1--Business, as no budgets for them have been         
finalized. There can be no assurance that any of the above projects will be     
ultimately completed, completed on time or completed for the budgeted amount.   

      No cash requirements have been budgeted for the capital expenditures
and amortization of debt of CESCR, Newkirk or Alexander's, which are partially  
owned by the Company. These investees are expected to fund their own cash       
requirements. Newkirk and Alexander's are not expected to distribute any cash to
the Company in 1999. In 1999, the Company expects to receive at a minimum,      
preferred distributions from CESCR of approximately $13.9 million (7,679,365    
preferred units at $1.81 per unit) and common distributions of approximately    
$3.5 million (2,500,000 common units at $1.40 per unit - current dividend rate).
The minimum preferred distribution rate increases by .25% each year for the next
three years.

    In July 1997, the Company obtained a $600,000 unsecured three-year
revolving credit facility. In February 1998, the facility was increased to      
$1,000,000. At December 31, 1998, the Company had approximately $687,250        
outstanding under the facility.                                                 

       In February 1998, the Company completed a $160,000 refinancing of the
Green Acres Mall and prepaid the then existing $118,000 debt on the property.   
The new 10-year debt matures in March 2008 and bears interest at 6.75%.         

       In June 1998, the Company completed a $275,000 refinancing of its One
Penn Plaza office building and borrowed $170,000 pursuant thereto. In the third 
quarter of 1998, the Company borrowed the remaining $105,000. The debt matures  
in June 2002, is prepayable at anytime, and bears interest at LIBOR + 1.25%     
(currently 6.35%). This debt replaced the $93,000 bridge-mortgage loan financing
put in place when the property was acquired.                                    

         In April 1998, the Cold Storage Companies completed a $550,000 ten-year
loan secured by 58 of its warehouses. The loan bears interest at 6.89%. The net 
proceeds from the loan together with working capital were used to repay $607,000
of bridge financing, which replaced high yield debt assumed at the date of      
acquisition.                                                                    

In October 1998, the Company completed its spin-off of Vornado
Operating Company, which the Company capitalized with an equity contribution of 
$25,000 of cash. In addition, Vornado entered into a $75,000 revolving credit   
agreement with Vornado Operating Company.                                       

     On March 12, 1999 the Vornado/Crescent Partnerships sold all of the
non-real estate assets of the Cold Storage Companies encompassing the operations
of the cold storage business for approximately $48,000 to a new partnership     
owned 60% by Vornado Operating Company and 40% by Crescent Operating Inc.       

    In November and December of 1998, the Company sold an aggregate of
$87,500 of 8.5% Series D-1 Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Units in the         
Operating Partnership to an institutional investor in a private placement,      
resulting in net proceeds of approximately $85,300. The perpetual Preferred     
Units may be called without penalty at the option of the Company commencing on  
November 12, 2003.                                                              

       In February 1999, the Company completed a $165,000 refinancing of its
Two Penn Plaza office building and prepaid the then existing $80,000 debt on the
property. The new 5-year debt matures in February 2004 and bears interest at    
7.08%.                                                                          

       In February 1999, the Company also exercised its option to extend the
maturity date on the $250,000 loan on its Chicago Merchandise Mart building from
March 31, 1999 to September 30, 1999. In connection therewith, the Company paid 
a fee of 1/8%.                                                                  

        On March 17, 1999, Vornado completed the sale of 3 million 8.5% Series
B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares, at a price $25.00 per share, pursuant 
to an effective registration statement with net proceeds of approximately       
$72,200. Further on March 22, 1999, 400,000 shares were sold when the           
underwriters exercised their over-allotment option resulting in additional net  
proceeds of $9,700. The perpetual preferred shares may be called without penalty
at the option of Vornado commencing on March 17, 2004. An equivalent number of  
units were issued by Vornado for the shares sold.                               

    The Company has an effective shelf registration under which it can
offer an aggregate of $1.5 billion of equity securities and an aggregate of $1.0
billion of debt securities.                                                     

      The Company anticipates that cash from continuing operations will be
adequate to fund business operations and the payment of dividends and           
distributions on an on-going basis for more than the next twelve months;        
however, capital outlays for significant acquisitions will require funding from 
borrowings or equity offerings.

Acquisition Activity                                                            

     As a result of acquisitions, the book value of the Company's assets
have grown from $2,524,089 at December 31, 1997 to $4,425,779 at December 31,   
1998.                                                                           

 The Company's future success will be affected by its ability to
integrate the assets and businesses it acquires and to effectively manage those 
assets and businesses. The Company currently expects to continue to grow at a   
relatively fast pace. However, its ability to do so will be dependent on a      
number of factors, including, among others, (a) the availability of reasonably  
priced assets that meet the Company's acquisition criteria and (b) the price of 
Vornado's common stock, the rates at which the Company is able to borrow money  
and, more generally, the availability of financing on terms that, in the        
Company's view, make such acquisitions financially attractive.                  

Recently Issued Accounting Standards                                            

         In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative           
Instruments and Hedging Activities". This statement establishes accounting and  
reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative    
instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. It is      
effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999 
Because the Company does not currently utilize derivatives or engage in         
significant hedging activities, management does not anticipate that             
implementation of this statement will have a material effect on the Company's   
financial statements.                                                           

       In April, 1998 the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants
Issued Statement of Position 98-5, "Reporting on the Costs of Start-up          
Activities", (98-5) which is effective for the Company in the first quarter of  
1999. The Company has no deferred organization costs or other deferred start-up 
costs as defined in 98-5, and therefore adoption of 98-5 will have no impact in 
the first quarter of 1999.                                                      

Year 2000 Issues                                                                

         Year 2000 compliance programs and information systems modification were
initiated by the Company in early 1998 to address the risk posed by the year    
2000 issue. The Company developed a plan to address their affected informational
(accounting, billing, payroll) and operational (refrigeration, HVAC, security,  
elevators, lighting, energy management) systems. The Company's plan also        
considers statements from outside vendors as to their year 2000 readiness.      

   The Company and its partially-owned entities have completed their
initial assessment, inventory and planning phases of their plan and have        
determined that the majority of their systems, including all mission critical   
systems are already year 2000 compliant. The Company anticipates that any issues
encountered with informational or operational systems will be remediated. The   
Company expects that where appropriate, all mission critical systems will be    
tested by June 30, 1999. The cost of the Company's year 2000 plan was not       
material to 1998 operations and is not expected to be material to 1999          
operations.                                                                     

    The Company believes that its exposure may be the failure of third
parties (i.e., energy providers) in meeting their commitments which may result  
in temporary business interruption at the Company's buildings, retail centers,  
mart properties, cold storage warehouses and other real estate related          
properties. The Company has contingency plans for its own day to day            
informational and operational systems and is in the process of updating these   
plans. Failure of third parties with which the Company conducts business to     
successfully respond to their year 2000 issues may have an adverse effect on the
Company.                                                                        

Economic Conditions                                                             

 Substantially all of the Company's office, retail and permanent
showroom leases contain step-ups in rent. Such rental increases are not designed
to, and in many instances do not, approximate the cost of inflation, but do have
the effect of mitigating the adverse impact of inflation. In addition,          
substantially all of the Company's leases contain provisions that require the   
tenant to reimburse the Company for the tenant's share of common area charges   
(including roof and structure in strip shopping centers, unless it is the       
tenant's direct responsibility) and real estate taxes or for increases of such  
expenses over a base amount, thus offsetting, in part, the effects of inflation 
on such expenses.                                                               

       Inflation did not have a material effect on the Company's results for
the periods presented.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk             

       At December 31, 1998, the Company has $1,426,777,000 of variable rate
debt at a weighted average rate of 6.55% and $624,223,000 of fixed rate debt    
bearing interest at a weighted average rate of 7.00%. A one-percent increase in 
the base used to determine the interest rate of the variable rate debt would    
result in a $14,268,000 decrease in the Company's net income ($.18 per diluted  
share). The fair value of the Company's debt at December 31, 1998, based on     
discounted cash flows at the current rate at which similar loans would be made  
to borrowers with similar credit ratings for the remaining term of such debt    
approximates its carrying value.                                                

       In July 1998, the Company entered into an interest rate cap agreement
to reduce the impact of changes in interest rates on its $275,000,000 One Penn  
Plaza loan. The agreement caps the Company's interest rate in the event that    
LIBOR increases above 8.5% through January 20, 2000 and 9% thereafter, until the
termination date of the cap agreement on July 30, 2001 (the debt matures in June
2002). The Company is exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by  
the other parties to the interest rate cap agreement. However, the Company does 
not anticipate nonperformance by the counterparty. The fair value of the        
interest rate cap agreement at December 31, 1998 approximates its cost.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

Partners                                                                        
Vornado Realty L.P.                                                             
Saddle Brook, New Jersey                                                        

         We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Vornado
Realty L.P. as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the related consolidated      
statements of income, partners' capital and cash flows for each of the three    
years in the period ended December 31, 1998. Our audits also included the       
financial statement schedules listed in the Index at Item 14. These financial   
statements and financial statement schedules are the responsibility of the      
Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the        
financial statements and financial statement schedules based on our audits.     

        We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain 
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting 
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes 
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by      
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. 
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.          

        In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of Vornado Realty L.P. at      
December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the results of their operations and their cash  
flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1998 in      
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, 
such financial statement schedules, when considered in relation to the basic    
consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly in all       
material respects the information set forth therein.

 VORNADO REALTY L.P.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Spin-off of Vornado Operating Company                                           

General                                                                     

      Vornado Operating Company ("Vornado Operating"), was incorporated on
October 30, 1997, as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. In order to      
maintain its status as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, the Company is   
required to focus principally on investment in real estate assets. Accordingly, 
the Company is prevented from owning certain assets and conducting certain      
activities that would be inconsistent with its status as a REIT. Vornado        
Operating was formed to own assets that Vornado could not itself own and conduct
activities that Vornado could not itself conduct. Vornado Operating is intended 
to function principally as an operating company, in contrast to the Company's   
principal focus on investment in real estate assets. Vornado Operating is able  
to do so because it is taxable as a regular "C" corporation rather than a REIT. 

  Vornado Operating will seek to become the operator of businesses
conducted at properties it leases from the Company, as contemplated by the      
Intercompany Agreement between the Company and Vornado Operating (the           
"Intercompany Agreement"), referred to below. Vornado Operating expects to rely 
exclusively on the Company to identify business opportunities and currently     
expects that those opportunities will relate in some manner to the Company and  
its real estate investments rather than to unrelated businesses.                

The Distribution                                                            

         On October 16, 1998, the Operating Partnership made a distribution (the
"Distribution") of one share of common stock, par value $.01 per share (the     
"Common Stock"), of Vornado Operating for 20 units of limited partnership       
interest of the Operating Partnership (including units owned by Vornado) held of
record as of the close of business on October 9, 1998 and Vornado in turn made a
distribution of the Common Stock it received to the holders of its common shares
of beneficial interest. While no Common Stock was distributed in respect of the 
Vornado's $3.25 Series A Convertible Preferred Shares, the Company adjusted the 
Conversion Price to take into account the Distribution. Vornado Operating's     
Common Stock is listed on the American Stock Exchange under the symbol "VOO".   

Capital Contribution and Revolving Credit Agreement.                        

    The Company initially capitalized Vornado Operating with an equity
contribution of $25,000,000 of cash. As part of its formation, Vornado Operating
was granted a $75,000,000 unsecured five-year revolving credit facility from    
Vornado (the "Revolving Credit Agreement"). Borrowings under the Revolving      
Credit Agreement bear interest at a floating rate per annum equal to LIBOR plus 
3%. Commencing January 1, 1999, Vornado Operating pays the Company a commitment 
fee equal to 1% per annum on the average daily unused portion of the facility.  
Amounts may be borrowed under the Revolving Credit Agreement, repaid and        
reborrowed from time to time on a revolving basis (so long as the principal     
amount outstanding at any time does not exceed $75,000,000). Only interest and  
commitment fees are payable under the Revolving Credit Agreement until it       
expires. The Revolving Credit Agreement prohibits Vornado Operating from        
incurring indebtedness to third parties (other than certain purchase money debt 
and certain other exceptions) and prohibits Vornado Operating from paying       
dividends. Debt under the Revolving Credit Agreement is recourse to Vornado     
Operating.                                                                      

Intercompany Agreement.                                                     

      The Company and Vornado Operating have entered into the Intercompany
Agreement pursuant to which, among other things, (a) the Company will under     
certain circumstances offer Vornado Operating an opportunity to become the      
lessee of certain real property owned now or in the future by the Company (under
mutually satisfactory lease terms) and (b) Vornado Operating will not make any  
real estate investment or other REIT-Qualified Investment unless it first offers
the Company the opportunity to make such investment and the Company has rejected
that opportunity.

 VORNADO REALTY L.P.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     Under the Intercompany Agreement, the Company has agreed to provide
Vornado Operating with certain administrative, corporate, accounting, financial,
insurance, legal, tax, data processing, human resources and operational         
services. For these services, Vornado Operating will compensate the Company in  
an amount determined in good faith by the Company as the amount an unaffiliated 
third party would charge Vornado Operating for comparable services and will     
reimburse the Company for certain costs incurred and paid to third parties on   
behalf of Vornado Operating. For the period from October 16, 1998 (commencement 
date) to December 31, 1998, approximately $50,000 of compensation for such      
services was charged pursuant to the Intercompany Agreement.                    

        Vornado Operating and the Company each have the right to terminate the
Intercompany Agreement if the other party is in material default of the         
Intercompany Agreement or upon 90 days written notice to the other party at any 
time after December 31, 2003. In addition, the Company has the right to         
terminate the Intercompany Agreement upon a change in control of Vornado        
Operating.                                                                      

Vornado Operating's Management.                                             

   Messrs. Roth, Fascitelli, West and Wight are directors of Vornado
Operating. Mr. Roth is also Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of
Vornado Operating, Mr. Fascitelli is also President of Vornado Operating, and   
certain other members of the Company's senior management hold a corresponding   
position with Vornado Operating.                                                

The Cold Storage Companies.                                                 

         On October 31, 1997, partnerships (the "Vornado/Crescent Partnerships")
in which affiliates of the Company have a 60% interest and affiliates of        
Crescent Real Estate Equities Company have a 40% interest acquired each of      
Americold Corporation ("Americold") and URS Logistics, Inc. ("URS"). In June    
1998, the Vornado/Crescent Partnerships acquired the assets of Freezer Services,
Inc. and in July 1998 acquired the Carmar Group (Americold, URS, Freezer        
Services, Inc. and the Carmar Group, collectively, the "Cold Storage            
Companies").                                                                    

      On March 12, 1999, the Vornado/Crescent Partnerships sold all of the
non-real estate assets of the Cold Storage Companies encompassing the operations
of the cold storage business for approximately $48,000,000 to a new partnership 
owned 60% by Vornado Operating Company and 40% by Crescent Operating Inc. The   
new partnership leases the underlying cold storage warehouses used in this      
business from the Vornado/Crescent Partnerships which continue to own the real  
estate. The leases have a 15 year term with two-five year renewal options and   
provide for the payment of fixed base rent and percentage rent based on customer
revenues. The new partnership is required to pay for all costs arising from the 
operation, maintenance and repair of the properties, as well as property capital
expenditures in excess of $5,000,000 annually. Fixed base rent and percentage   
rent for the initial lease year is projected to be approximately $151 million.  
The new partnership has the right to defer a portion of the rent for up to three
years beginning on March 12, 1999 to the extent that available cash, as defined 
in the leases, is insufficient to pay such rent.                                

Disposition and Acquisition of Interest in CESCR                          

  On December 31, 1998, the Company sold approximately 1.7% of the
outstanding partnership units of CESCR, (a Delaware limited partnership that    
owns interests in and manages approximately 10.7 million square feet of office  
properties in Crystal City, Arlington, Virginia, a suburb of Washington, D.C.,  
and manages an additional 14.6 million square feet of office and other          
commercial properties in the Washington, D.C. area), to Vornado Operating       
Company, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $12,900,000 or $34 per
unit (which is the price at which CESCR issued partnership units in October 1998
in connection with a significant "roll-up" transaction). The purchase price was 
funded out of Vornado Operating's working capital. After giving effect to this  
purchase, the Company owned approximately 9.6% of CESCR as of December 31, 1998.
In connection with this purchase, the Company granted to Vornado Operating an   
option to require the Company to repurchase all of the CESCR units at the price 
at which Vornado Operating purchased the CESCR units, plus a cumulative return  
on such amount at a rate of 10% per annum. The option was exercised on March 4, 
1999. Accordingly, the Company reacquired the CESCR units from Vornado Operating
for $13,200,000.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)

2.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies                                  

Basis of Presentation: The accompanying consolidated financial
statements include the accounts of Vornado Realty L.P. as well as interests     
acquired that individually (or in the aggregate with prior interests) exceed a  
50% interest and the Company exercises unilateral control. All significant      
intercompany amounts have been eliminated. Equity interests in partially-owned  
entities include partnerships, joint ventures and preferred stock affiliates    
(corporations in which the Company owns all of the preferred stock and none of  
the common equity) and are accounted for under the equity method of accounting  
as the Company exercises significant influence. These investments are recorded  
initially at cost and subsequently adjusted for net equity in income (loss) and 
cash contributions and distributions. Ownership of the preferred stock entitles 
the Company to substantially all of the economic benefits in the preferred stock
affiliates. The common stock of the preferred stock affiliates is owned by      
Officers and Trustees of Vornado.                                               

        Management has made estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and   
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.     
Actual results could differ from those estimates.                               

 Real Estate: Real estate is carried at cost, net of accumulated
depreciation and amortization. Betterments, major renewals and certain costs    
directly related to the acquisition, improvement and leasing of real estate are 
capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred.     
Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over the assets estimated     
useful lives which range from 7 to 40 years. Tenant allowances are amortized on 
a straight-line basis over the lives of the related leases.                     

   The Company's properties are reviewed for impairment if events or
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the property may  
not be recoverable. In such an event, a comparison is made of the current and   
projected operating cash flows of each such property into the foreseeable future
on an undiscounted basis, to the carrying amount of such property. Such carrying
amount would be adjusted, if necessary, to reflect an impairment in the value of
the asset.                                                                      

        Cash and Cash Equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents consist of highly
liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less.  
Cash and cash equivalents does not include cash restricted for tenant           
improvements at the Company's Two Penn Plaza office building of $25,708,000 and 
cash restricted in connection with an officer's deferred compensation payable of
$4,823,000.                                                                     

   Marketable Securities: The Company has classified debt and equity
securities which it intends to hold for an indefinite period of time as         
securities available for sale, equity securities it intends to buy and sell on a
short term basis as trading securities and its preferred stock investment in    
Capital Trust as securities held to maturity. Unrealized gains and losses are   
included in earnings for trading securities and as a component of shareholder's 
equity and other comprehensive income for securities available for sale.        
Realized gains or losses on the sale of securities are recorded based on average
cost.                                                                           

       At December 31, 1998 and 1997, marketable securities had an aggregate
cost of $83,043,000 and $34,950,000 and an aggregate market value of $77,156,000
and $34,469,000 (of which $6,826,000 and $7,583,000 represents trading          
securities). The securities held to maturity of $48,530,000 are reported at     
amortized cost. Gross unrealized gains and losses were $513,000 and $6,400,000  
at December 31, 1998 and $1,583,000 and $2,064,000 at December 31, 1997.        

        Mortgage Loans Receivable: The Company evaluates the collectibility of
both interest and principal of each of its loans, if circumstances warrant, to  
determine whether it is impaired. A loan is considered to be impaired, when     
based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be
unable to collect all amounts due according to the existing contractual terms.  
When a loan is considered to be impaired, the amount of the loss accrual is     
calculated by comparing the recorded investment to the value determined by      
discounting the expected future cash flows at the loan's effective interest     
rate. Interest on impaired loans is recognized on a cash basis.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)

       Officers Compensation Payable: In July 1998, the Emerging Issues Task
Force (EITF) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued EITF 97-14      
"Accounting for Deferred Compensation Arrangements Where Amounts Earned are Held
in a Rabbi Trust and Invested" (EITF 97-14). EITF 97-14 applies to the Company's
accounting treatment of the Officers Compensation Payable as reflected in the   
balance sheet. The transition guidance of EITF 97-14 required the Company to    
record a charge to equity of $10,464,000 which represents the appreciation in   
the value of Vornado's stock from the date the trust was established (at which  
time the price of Vornado's stock was $21.75 per share) to September 30, 1998   
(at which time the price of Vornado's stock was $33.13 per share). In subsequent
periods, appreciation in Vornado's stock price above $33.13 will be recognized  
as compensation expense and if the price fluctuates between $33.13 and $21.75,  
equity would be adjusted. For the quarter ended December 31, 1998, approximately
$340,000 was recognized as compensation expense as the price per share of       
Vornado stock at December 31, 1998 was $33.50.                                  

       Fair Value of Financial Instruments: All financial instruments of the
Company are reflected in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at amounts
which, in management's estimation, based upon an interpretation of available    
market information and valuation methodologies (including discounted cash flow  
analyses with regard to fixed rate debt) are considered appropriate, and        
reasonably approximate their fair values. Such fair value estimates are not     
necessarily indicative of the amounts that would be realized upon disposition of
the Company's financial instruments.                                            

     Deferred Charges: Direct financing costs are deferred and amortized
over the terms of the related agreements as a component of interest expense.    
Direct costs related to leasing activities are capitalized and amortized on a   
straight-line basis over the lives of the related leases. All other deferred    
charges are amortized on a straight-line basis in accordance with the terms of  
the agreements to which they relate.                                            

     Revenue Recognition: Base rents, additional rents based on tenants'
sales volume and reimbursement of the tenants' share of certain operating       
expenses are generally recognized when due from tenants. The straight-line basis
is used to recognize base rents under leases entered into after November 14,    
1985, which provide for varying rents over the lease terms.                     

  Income Taxes: No provision has been made for income taxes in the
accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Operating Partnership     
since such taxes, if any, are the responsibility of the individual partners. The
Company operates in a manner intended to enable Vornado to continue to qualify  
as a REIT under Sections 856-860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 as        
amended. Under those sections, a REIT which distributes at least 95% of its REIT
taxable income as a dividend to its shareholders each year and which meets      
certain other conditions will not be taxed on that portion of its taxable income
which is distributed to its shareholders. Vornado has distributed to            
shareholders an amount greater than its taxable income. Therefore, no provision 
for Federal income taxes is required. Dividend distributions for the year ended 
December 31, 1998, were characterized for Federal income tax purposes as        
ordinary income (81%), return of capital (17%) and capital gain (2%). The       
distributions for the tax years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996 were           
characterized for Federal income tax purposes as ordinary income.               

        The net basis of the Company's assets and liabilities for tax purposes
is approximately $920,000,000 lower than the amount reported for financial      
statement purposes.                                                             

        Amounts Per Unit: Basic earnings per unit is computed based on average
units outstanding. Diluted earnings per unit considers the effect of options,   
warrants and convertible securities. All unit and per unit information has also 
been adjusted for a 2-for-1 unit split in October 1997.                         

        Stock Options: The Company accounts for stock-based compensation using
the intrinsic value method. Under the intrinsic value method compensation cost  
is measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of Vornado's stock
at the date of grant over the exercise price of the option granted. Compensation
cost for stock options, if any, is recognized ratably over the vesting period.  
The Company's policy is to grant options with an exercise price equal to the    
quoted market price of Vornado's stock on the grant date. Accordingly, no       
compensation cost has been recognized for the Company's stock option plans. An  
equivalent number of units are issued when options are exercised.

3.  Acquisitions                                                                

 The Company completed approximately $2.4 billion of real estate
acquisitions or investments from January 1, 1998 through March, 1999 and $2.0   
billion in 1997. These acquisitions were consummated through subsidiaries or    
preferred stock affiliates of the Company and were recorded under the purchase  
method of accounting. Related net assets and results of operations have been    
included in these financial statements since their respective dates of          
acquisition. The respective purchase costs were allocated to acquired assets and
assumed liabilities using their relative fair values as of the closing dates,   
based on valuations and other studies certain of which are not yet complete.    
Accordingly, the initial valuations are subject to change as such information is
finalized. The Company believes that any such change will not be significant    
since the allocations were principally to real estate. The following are the    
details of the acquisitions or investments by segment:                          

Office:                                                                         

Mendik Transaction                                                          

        In April 1997, Vornado consummated the acquisition of interests in all
or a portion of seven Manhattan office buildings and the management company held
by Bernard H. Mendik, David R. Greenbaum and certain entities controlled by them
(the "Mendik Group") and certain of their affiliates, which is operated as the  
Mendik Division. The properties acquired include (i) four wholly owned          
properties: Two Penn Plaza, Eleven Penn Plaza, 1740 Broadway and 866 U.N. Plaza 
and (ii) three partially owned properties: Two Park Avenue (40% interest), 330  
Madison Avenue (24.8% interest) and 570 Lexington Avenue (5.6% interest). The   
consideration for the transaction was approximately $656,000,000, including     
$264,000,000 in cash, $177,000,000 in the limited partnership units of the      
Operating Partnership ("Minority Interests") and $215,000,000 in indebtedness.  

90 Park Avenue                                                              

        In May 1997, the Company acquired a mortgage loan from a consortium of
banks collateralized by an office building located at 90 Park Avenue, Manhattan,
New York. On August 21, 1997, the Company entered into an agreement with the    
owners of 90 Park Avenue pursuant to which the Company restructured the         
mortgage, took title to the land and obtained a 43-year lease on the building   
under which the Company manages the building and receives the building's cash   
flow. As part of the restructuring, the amount of the debt was adjusted from the
face value of $193,000,000 to the May 1997 acquisition cost of $185,000,000, the
maturity date of the debt was extended to August 31, 2022 and the interest rate 
was set at 7.5%. The Company purchased the land from the borrower for           
$8,000,000, which was further applied to reduce the debt to $177,000,000. This  
investment is classified as real estate.                                        

20 Broad Street                                                             

        In September 1997, the Company purchased, at a discount, a mortgage on
an office building at 20 Broad Street in Manhattan, New York for $27,000,000.   
The mortgage, which was in default, yielded approximately 12%. In August 1998,  
the Company acquired the Mendik Group's 60% interest in the leasehold for       
approximately $600,000 of Operating Partnership Units. In a related transaction,
the Company sold a 40% interest in the mortgage to the other unrelated owner of 
the property for $10,800,000. The purchase from the Mendik Group includes a     
provision for a future earn-out, capped at $4,400,000 in additional units, based
on leasing activity through December 31, 2004.                                  

Charles E. Smith Commercial Realty Investment ("CESCR")                     

 In October 1997, the Company acquired a 15% limited partnership
interest in CESCR for $60,000,000. CESCR owns interests in and manages          
approximately 10.7 million square feet of office properties in Northern Virginia
and Washington, D.C. and manages an additional 14.6 million square feet of      
office and other commercial properties in the Washington, D.C. area. In October 
1998, CESCR issued partnership units in connection with a significant roll-up   
transaction reducing the Company's limited partnership interest to 11.3%.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)

  On December 31, 1998, the Company sold approximately 1.7% of the
outstanding partnership units of CESCR to Vornado Operating for an aggregate    
price of approximately $12,900,000. In connection with this purchase, the       
Company granted Vornado Operating an option to require the Company to repurchase
the units. The option was exercised on March 4, 1999. Accordingly, the Company  
reacquired the CESCR units from Vornado Operating for $13,200,000.              

         On March 4, 1999 the Company made an additional $242,000,000 investment
in CESCR by contributing to CESCR the land under certain CESCR office properties
in Crystal City, Arlington, Virginia and partnership interests in certain CESCR 
subsidiaries. The Company acquired these assets from Commonwealth Atlantic      
Properties, Inc, ("CAPI"), an affiliate of Lazard Freres Real Estate Investors  
L.L.C., immediately prior to the contribution to CESCR. Together with the       
Company's investment in CESCR made in 1997 and the units it reacquired from     
Vornado Operating Company, Vornado now owns approximately 34% of CESCR's limited
partnership units. In addition, the Company acquired from CAPI for $8,000,000   
the land under a Marriott Hotel located in Crystal City.                        

        The purchase price was paid to CAPI by Vornado issuing $250,000,000 of
6% Convertible Preferred Units of the Company's operating partnership. The      
Preferred Units are convertible at $44 per unit and the coupon increases to     
6.50% over the next three years and then fixes at 6.75% in year eight. The      
Company will appoint one of three members to CESCR's Board of Managers,         
increasing under certain circumstances to two of four members in March 2002.    

     In connection with these transactions, the Company agreed to make a
five-year $41,000,000 loan to CAPI with interest at 8%, increasing to 9% ratably
over the term. The loan is secured by approximately $55,000,000 of the Company's
units issued to CAPI as well as certain real estate assets.                     

640 Fifth Avenue                                                            

      In December 1997, the Company acquired 640 Fifth Avenue, a Manhattan
office building located at the corner of 51st Street, for approximately         
$64,000,000.                                                                    

Westport Corporate Office Park                                              

     In January 1998, the Company acquired the Westport Corporate Office
Park from a limited partnership that included members of the Mendik Group. The  
purchase price was approximately $14,000,000 consisting of $6,000,000 of cash   
and an $8,000,000 mortgage loan for the two buildings.                          

One Penn Plaza                                                              

       In February 1998, the Company acquired a long-term leasehold interest
in One Penn Plaza, a Manhattan office building for approximately $410,000,000.  

150 East 58th Street                                                        

In March 1998, the Company acquired 150 East 58th Street (the 
"Architects and Design Center"), a Manhattan office building, for approximately 
$118,000,000.                                                                   

570 Lexington Avenue - additional investment                                

In April 1998, the Company increased its interest from 5.6% to
approximately 50% in 570 Lexington Avenue, an office building located in midtown
Manhattan. The Company purchased the additional interest for approximately      
$37,200,000, including $4,900,000 of existing debt.

888 Seventh Avenue and 40 Fulton Street                                     

     In June, 1998, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire the
leasehold interest in 888 Seventh Avenue, a 46 story office building located in 
midtown Manhattan, and simultaneously acquired 40 Fulton Street, a 29 story     
office building located in downtown Manhattan. The aggregate consideration for  
both buildings is approximately $154,500,000. The acquisition of 888 Seventh    
Avenue was completed in January 1999.                                           

770 Broadway

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)

    The net carrying value of properties collateralizing the notes and
mortgages amounted to $2,114,246,000 at December 31, 1998. As at December 31,   
1998, the maturities for the next five years and thereafter are as follows:     

(in thousands)                                              

Year Ending December 31,                              Amount
------------------------                              ------
1999...........................................   $  268,232
2000...........................................    1,010,014
2001...........................................       14,341
2002...........................................      275,840
2003...........................................       29,094
Thereafter.....................................      453,479

        In July 1997, the Company obtained a $600,000,000 unsecured three-year
revolving credit facility. In February 1998, the facility was increased to      
$1,000,000,000. The facility contains customary loan covenants including, among 
others, limits on total outstanding indebtedness; maximum loan to value ratio;  
minimum debt service coverage and minimum market capitalization requirements.   
Interest is at LIBOR plus .70% to 1.00% depending on the Company's senior debt  
rating. The credit facility has a competitive bid option program, which allows  
the Company to hold auctions among banks participating in the facility for short
term borrowings of up to $500,000,000. The Company paid an origination fee in   
July 1997 of .30%, origination and amendment fees in February 1998 of .39% and  
pays a commitment fee quarterly over the remaining term of the facility ranging 
from .15% to .20% on the facility amount.                                       

       In February 1998, the Company completed a $160,000,000 refinancing of
the Green Acres Mall and prepaid the then existing $118,000,000 debt on the     
property. The new 10-year debt matures in March 2008, requires amortization     
based on a 30-year term, bears interest at 6.75% and may be defeased after 2001.

       In June 1998, the Company completed a $275,000,000 refinancing of its
One Penn Plaza office building and borrowed $170,000,000 pursuant thereto. In   
the third quarter of 1998, the Company borrowed the remaining $105,000,000. the 
debt matures in June 2002, is prepayable at anytime, and bears interest at LIBOR
+ 1.25% (currently 6.35%). This debt replaced the $93,192,000 bridge-mortgage   
loan financing put in place when the property was acquired. The Company entered 
into an interest rate cap agreement to reduce the impact of changes in interest 
rates on this loan. The agreement caps the Company's interest rate in the event 
that LIBOR increases above 8.5% through January 20, 2000 and 9% thereafter,     
until the termination date of the cap agreement on July 30, 2001. The Company is
exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other parties to   
the interest rate cap agreement. However, the Company does not anticipate       
nonperformance by the counterparty. The fair value of the interest rate cap     
agreement at December 31, 1998 approximates its cost.                           

       In February 1999, the Company completed a $165,000,000 refinancing of
its Two Penn Plaza office building and prepaid the then existing $80,000,000    
debt on the property. The new 5-year debt matures in February 2004 and bears    
interest at 7.08%.                                                              

6.  Partners' Capital                                                           

       In April 1998, Vornado completed the sale of 10,000,000 common shares
of beneficial interest, par value $.04 per share pursuant to an effective       
registration statement with net proceeds of approximately $401,000,000. On April
29, 1998, Vornado sold 1,132,420 common shares to a unit investment trust, which
were valued for the purpose of the trust at $41.06 per share, resulting in net  
proceeds of approximately $44,000,000. An equivalent number of units were issued
to Vornado for the shares sold.                                                 

     In connection with the acquisition of the Mendik RELP properties in
November 1998, Vornado issued 842,200 common shares with an approximate value of
$29,063,000. An equivalent number of units were issued to Vornado for the shares
issued.                                                                         

   During the year ended December 31, 1998, certain limited partners
converted their units into approximately 894,000 general partner units. The     
value of these units were approximately $32,780,000.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)

         In September 1998, the Company implemented a dividend reinvestment plan
which provides holders of record of Vornado common shares and the limited       
partners of the Operating Partnership the opportunity to automatically reinvest 
all or a portion of their cash distributions received on common shares and units
of the Operating Partnership into common shares. During the year ended December 
31, 1998, 706 shares were issued and proceeds of approximately $24,000 were     
received from dividend reinvestment.                                            

   In April 1997, Vornado completed its public offering of 5,750,000
Series A Convertible Preferred Shares of Beneficial Interest, liquidation       
preference $50.00 per share. The preferred shares bear a coupon of 6 1/2% and   
are convertible into common shares at $36.11 per share. The offering, net of    
expenses, generated approximately $276,000,000 which was used to fund the cash  
portion of the Mendik Transaction. In connection with the acquisition of Arbor  
in December 1997, Vornado issued approximately 2,936,000 common shares and      
39,400 Series A Convertible Preferred Shares of Beneficial Interest. The        
approximate value of the shares issued at the time of the acquisition was       
$102,000,000. An equivalent number of units were issued to Vornado for the      
shares sold. Distributions on the preferred units in 1998 and 1997 were         
approximately $21,690,000 and $15,549,000 (including accretion of expenses in   
connection with the offering of $2,874,000 and $1,918,000).                     

On October 20, 1997, the Company paid a 100% unit dividend to 
unitholders. All unit and per unit information has been adjusted to reflect this
two-for-one unit split.                                                         

In October 1997, Vornado sold 14,000,000 common shares and an 
additional 2,100,000 common shares in November 1997 when the underwriters       
exercised in full their over-allotment option. The shares were sold at a price  
of $45.00 per share which, net of expenses, yielded approximately $688,672,000. 
An equivalent number of units were issued to Vornado for the shares sold. The   
net proceeds were used to repay $310,000,000 outstanding under the Company's    
line of credit and to fund a portion of the purchase price of certain           
acquisitions previously described.                                              

7.  Employees' Share Option Plan                                                

 Under the Omnibus Share Plan (the "Plan"), various officers and
employees have been granted incentive share options and non-qualified options to
purchase common shares of Vornado. Options granted are at prices equal to 100%  
of the market price of Vornado's shares at the date of grant, 1,055,066 shares  
vest on a graduated basis, becoming fully vested 27 months after grant,         
3,500,000 shares (granted in connection with Mr. Fascitelli's employment        
agreement) vest on a graduated basis becoming fully vested 60 months after grant
and 4,169,250 shares vest on a graduated basis, becoming fully vested 36 months 
after grant. All options expire ten years after grant. An equivalent number of  
units are issued when options are exercised.                                    

    The Plan also provides for the award of Stock Appreciation Rights,
Performance Shares and Restricted Stock, as defined, none of which have been    
awarded as of December 31, 1998.

Vornado shares available for future grant under the Plan at December 31, 1998   
were 4,103,382.                                                                 

   In connection with the acquisition of Arbor in December 1997, the
Company issued 60,000 options to a third party outside of the Plan parameters.  
These options were granted at $43.75 per unit and immediately vested. No expense
was incurred related to this issuance as it was accounted for as component of   
the acquisition price.

 In December 1997, benefits under the Plan were frozen. Prior to
December 31, 1997, the Company's qualified retirement plan covered all full-time
employees. The Plan provided annual pension benefits that were equal to 1% of   
the employee's annual compensation for each year of participation. The funding  
policy is in accordance with the minimum funding requirements of ERISA.         

Pension expense includes the following components:

        Plan assets are invested in U.S. government obligations and securities

9.  Leases                                                                      

As lessor:                                                    

    The Company leases space to tenants in shopping centers and office
buildings under operating leases. Most of the leases provide for the payment of 
fixed base rentals payable monthly in advance. Shopping center leases provide   
for the pass-through to tenants of real estate taxes, insurance and maintenance.
Office building leases generally require the tenants to reimburse the Company   
for operating costs and real estate taxes above their base year costs. Shopping 
center leases also provide for the payment by the lessee of additional rent     
based on a percentage of the tenants' sales. As of December 31, 1998, future    
base rental revenue under noncancellable operating leases, excluding rents for  
leases with an original term of less than one year and rents resulting from the 
exercise of renewal options, is as follows:                                     

(in thousands)                                                                

Year Ending December 31:                                        Amount        
-----------------------                                        ---------      
1999..................................................         $ 474,990      
2000..................................................           454,327      
2001..................................................           422,600      
2002..................................................           394,066      
2003..................................................           354,323      
Thereafter............................................         2,287,595      

     These amounts do not include rentals based on tenants' sales. These
percentage rents approximated $2,493,000, $1,786,000 and $936,000 for the years 
ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996.                                         

 None of the Company's tenants, represented more than 10% of the
Company's total revenues for the year ended December 31, 1998.

As lessee:                                                    

        The Company is a tenant under operating leases for certain properties.
These leases will expire principally during the next thirty years. Future       
minimum lease payments under operating leases at December 31, 1998, are as      
follows:                                                                        

(in thousands)                                                                  

Year Ending December 31:                                              Amount  
------------------------                                             -------- 
1999...........................................................      $  9,297 
2000...........................................................         6,359 
2001...........................................................         6,503 
2002...........................................................         6,081 
2003...........................................................         5,586 
Thereafter.....................................................       122,700 

      Rent expense was $5,937,000, $2,001,000 and $1,465,000 for the years
ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996.                                         

10.  Contingencies                                                              

At December 31, 1998, in addition to the $687,250,000 balance 
outstanding under the Company's revolving credit facility, the Company had      
utilized $100,165,000 of availability under the facility for letters of credit  
and guarantees primarily related to pending acquisitions.                       

        Each of the Company's properties has been subjected to varying degrees
of environmental assessment at various times. The environmental assessments did 
not reveal any material environmental contamination. However, there can be no   
assurance that the identification of new areas of contamination, change in the  
extent or known scope of contamination, the discovery of additional sites, or   
changes in cleanup requirements would not result in significant costs to the    
Company.                                                                        

       From time-to-time, the Company has disposed of substantial amounts of
real estate to third parties for which, as to certain properties, it remains    
contingently liable for rent payments or mortgage indebtedness.                 

     There are various legal actions against the Company in the ordinary
course of business. In the opinion of management, after consultation with legal 
counsel, the outcome of such matters will not have a material effect on the     
Company's financial condition, results of operations or cash flow.              

11.  Net Gain From Insurance Settlement and Condemnation Proceedings            

      In April 1997, the Company's Lodi shopping center was destroyed by a
fire. In the third quarter of 1998, the Company and its insurer agreed that the 
estimated cost to reconstruct the shopping center is approximately $9,012,000   
and the Company recorded a gain of $7,955,000 (the agreed upon amount, net of   
the carrying value of the shopping center of $1,057,000). The insurance carrier 
had previously advanced $5,550,000 to the Company. The reconstruction of the    
shopping center is expected to be completed in 1999.                            

    On September 1, 1998, Atlantic City condemned the Company's vacant
property. In the third quarter of 1998, the Company recorded a gain of          
$1,694,000, (which reflects the condemnation award of $3,100,000, net of the    
carrying value of the property of $1,406,000). The Company is contesting the    
amount of the award.

12.  Repurchase Agreements                                                      

        The Company enters into agreements for the purchase and resale of U.S.
government obligations for periods of up to one week. The obligations purchased 
under these agreements are held in safekeeping in the name of the Company by    
various money center banks. The Company has the right to demand additional      
collateral or return of these invested funds at any time the collateral value is
less than 102% of the invested funds plus any accrued earnings thereon.         

13.  Other Related Party Transactions                                           

       Pursuant to his employment contract, in December 1996 Mr. Fascitelli,
the President of the Company, received a deferred payment consisting of         
$5,000,000 in cash and a $20,000,000 convertible obligation payable at the      
Company's option in 919,540 of Vornado common shares or the cash equivalent of  
their appreciated value but not less than $20,000,000. Accordingly, cash of     
$5,000,000 and 919,540 Vornado common shares are being held in an irrevocable   
trust (the fair value of this obligation was $35,628,000 at December 31, 1998). 

   During 1998, the Company made loans to Mr. Fascitelli aggregating
$7,600,000 in accordance with the terms of his employment contract. The loans   
have a five-year term and bear interest, payable quarterly, at a weighted       
average rate of 5.16% (based on the mid-term applicable federal rate provided   
under the Internal Revenue Code).                                               

      At December 31, 1998, the loans due from Mr. Roth, Mr. Rowan and Mr.
Macnow in connection with their stock option exercises were $13,930,000         
($4,897,000 of which is shown as a reduction in shareholders' equity), $144,000 
and $130,000, respectively. The loans bear interest at a rate equal to the      
broker call rate (6.50% at December 31, 1998) but not less than the minimum     
applicable federal rate provided under the Internal Revenue Code. Interest on   
the loan to Mr. Roth is payable quarterly. Mr. Roth's loan, is due in December  
2002. The Company has agreed on each January 1st (commencing January 1, 1997) to
forgive one-fifth of the amounts due from Mr. Rowan and Mr. Macnow, provided    
that they remain employees of the Company.                                      

    The Company currently manages and leases the real estate assets of
Interstate Properties pursuant to a management agreement for which the Company  
receives a quarterly fee equal to 4% of base rent and percentage rent and       
certain other commissions. The management agreement has a term of one year and  
is automatically renewable unless terminated by either of the parties on sixty  
days' notice at the end of the term. Although the management agreement was not  
negotiated at arms length, the Company believes based upon comparable fees      
charged by other real estate companies, that its terms are fair to the Company. 
For the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, $1,365,000 and $1,184,000 
and $2,074,000 of management fees were earned by the Company pursuant to the    
management agreement.                                                           

     The Mendik Group owns an entity which provides cleaning and related
services and security services to office properties, including the Company's    
Manhattan office properties. Although the terms and conditions of the contracts 
pursuant to which these services are provided were not negotiated at arms       
length, the Company believes based upon comparable fees charged to other real   
estate companies, that the terms and conditions of such contracts are fair to   
the Company. The Company was charged fees in connection with these contracts of 
$25,686,000 for the year ended December 31, 1998 and $9,965,000 for the period  
from April 15, 1997 (date of acquisition of the Mendik portfolio) to December   
31, 1997.                                                                       

        The common stock of the preferred stock affiliates which own interests
in the Cold Storage Companies, Hotel Pennsylvania and related management        
companies is owned by Officers and Trustees of Vornado.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)

Notes to segment information:                                                   

 (1) EBITDA represents net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and
      amortization, extraordinary or non-recurring items, gains or losses on
  sales of real estate and the effect of straight-lining of property
        rentals for rent escalations. Management considers EBITDA a supplemental
 measure for making decisions and assessing the performance of its
   segments. EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures
employed by other companies.                                    
(2) Other includes (i) the operations of the Company's warehouse and    
  industrial properties, (ii) investments in the Hotel Pennsylvania,
    Alexander's, and Newkirk Joint Ventures, (iii) corporate general and
  administrative expenses and (iv) unallocated investment income and
interest and debt expense.                                      
 (3) Includes adding back of (i) $4,287 of income taxes and related items,
        which are considered non-recurring because of the expected conversion of
      the Cold Storage Companies to REITS and (ii) non-recurring unification
costs of $4,585.                                                
  (4) Primarily represents the Company's equity in Alexander's loss from the
write-off of the carrying value of Alexander's Lexington Avenue 
buildings.                                                      
(5) Interest and debt expense, depreciation and amortization and        
        straight-lining of rents included in the reconciliation of net income to
       EBITDA reflects amounts which are netted in income from partially-owned
entities.                                                       

18.  Subsequent Events                                                          

Acquisition of 888 Seventh Avenue                                           

   On January 12, 1999, the Company completed the acquisition of 888
Seventh Avenue, a 46 story Manhattan office building for approximately          
$100,000,000.                                                                   

Additional Investment in Newkirk                                            

       In March 1999, the Company and its joint venture partner completed an
acquisition of additional equity interests in certain limited partnerships. The 
Company's additional investment of $52,435,000 consisted of $47,790,000 in      
Operating Partnership Units and $4,645,000 in cash.                             

Charles E. Smith Commercial Realty L.P.                                   

On March 4, 1999, the Company made an additional $242,000,000 
investment in CESCR by contributing to CESCR the land under certain CESCR office
properties in Crystal City, Arlington, Virginia and partnership interests in    
certain CESCR subsidiaries. The Company acquired these assets from Commonwealth 
Atlantic Properties, Inc. ("CAPI"), an affiliate of Lazard Freres Real Estate   
Investors L.L.C., immediately prior to the contribution to CESCR. Together with 
the Company's investment in CESCR made in 1997 and the units it reacquired on   
March 4, 1999 from Vornado Operating Company, the Company owns approximately 34%
of CESCR's limited partnership units. In addition, the Company acquired from    
CAPI for $8,000,000 the land under a Marriott Hotel located in Crystal City.    

         The purchase price was paid to CAPI by the Company issuing $250,000,000
of 6% Convertible Preferred Units of the Company's operating partnership. The   
Preferred Units are convertible at $44 per unit and the coupon increases to     
6.50% over the next three years and then fixes at 6.75% in year eight. The      
Company will appoint one of three members to CESCR's Board of Managers,         
increasing under certain circumstances to two of four members in March 2002.    

     In connection with these transactions, the Company made a five-year
$41,000,000 loan to CAPI with interest at 8%, increasing to 9% ratably over the 
term. The loan is secured by approximately $55,000,000 of the Operating         
Partnership's units issued to CAPI as well as certain real estate assets.       

Offering of Preferred Shares                                              

        On March 17, 1999, Vornado completed the sale of 3 million 8.5% Series
B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares, at a price $25.00 per share, pursuant 
to an effective registration statement with net proceeds of approximately       
$72,200,000. Further on March 22, 1999, 400,000 shares were sold when the       
underwriters exercised their over-allotment option resulting in additional net  
proceeds of $9,700,000. The perpetual preferred shares may be called without    
penalty at the option of Vornado commencing on March 17, 2004. An equivalent    
number of units were issued by Vornado for the shares sold.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)

Sale of Non-Real Estate Assets of AmeriCold Logistics                           

      On March 12, 1999, the Vornado/Crescent Partnerships sold all of the
non-real estate assets of the Cold Storage Companies encompassing the operations
of the cold storage business for approximately $48,000,000 to a new partnership 
owned 60% by Vornado Operating Company and 40% by Crescent Operating Inc. The   
new partnership leases the underlying cold storage warehouses used in this      
business from the Vornado/Crescent Partnerships which continue to own the real  
estate. The leases have a 15 year term with two-five year renewal options and   
provide for the payment of fixed base rent and percentage rent based on customer
revenues. The new partnership is required to pay for all costs arising from the 
operation, maintenance and repair of the properties, as well as property capital
expenditures in excess of $5,000,000 annually. Fixed base rent and percentage   
rent for the initial lease year is projected to be approximately $151 million.  
The new partnership has the right to defer a portion of the rent for up to three
years beginning on March 12, 1999 to the extent that available cash, as defined 
in the leases, is insufficient to pay such rent.

  *These encumbrances are cross collateralized under a blanket mortgage in the
amount of $227,000,000 at December 31, 1998.                                    

Notes:                                                                    
 1) Initial cost is cost as of January 30, 1982 (the date on which
Vornado commenced real estate operations) unless acquired subsequent to that    
date -- see Column H.                                                           

2) The net basis of the company's assets and liabilities for tax
purposes is approximately $920,000,000 lower than the amount reported for       
financial statement purposes.                                                   

        3) Date of original construction -- many properties have had substantial
renovation or additional construction -- see Column D.                          

      4) Buildings on these properties were demolished in 1993. As a result,
    the cost of the buildings and improvements, net of accumulated
          depreciation, were transferred to land. In addition, the cost of the
land in Kearny is net of a $1,615,000 insurance recovery. 

5) Building was destroyed by fire and is being rebuilt.
