ITEM 5.    OTHER EVENTS

         On May 15, 2002, SL Green Realty Corp. ("SL Green") completed the
acquisition of 1515 Broadway, New York, New York for an aggregate purchase price
of $483.5 million.

         The property was owned by 1515 Broadway Associates, L.P., whose general
partner was an affiliate of The Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United
States. The acquisition was accomplished through a prepackaged bankruptcy
reorganization by the 1515 Broadway partnership, to which the parties have
consented. The property is being acquired in a joint venture with SITQ
Immobilier, with SL Green retaining an approximate 55% interest in the asset.

         Located in the heart of New York's Times Square and within walking
distance of Manhattan's main transportation hubs, 1515 Broadway is a 1.75
million square foot, 54-story office tower located on Broadway between 44th and
45th Streets. It is the headquarters of Viacom, Inc., one of the world's leading
media and entertainment companies, whose holdings include franchise brands CBS,
MTV Networks (Nickelodeon, MTV and VH1), Paramount Pictures, Showtime Networks
and Infinity Broadcasting.

         1515 Broadway is being acquired at a cost of approximately $274 per
square foot. The property is 98.2% leased, with current market rents for office
space at a 34% premium to fully escalated in-place rents. The initial cash NOI
yield of the transaction is approximately 8.2%.

         A copy of the contribution agreement was attached as exhibit 10.1 to
the Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 30,
2002.
