         This  Amendment No. 7 to the Schedule 13D dated  September 10, 1987, as
amended by  Amendment  Nos. 1 through 6 (the  "Schedule  13D"),  is being  filed
pursuant to Rule 13d-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, on
behalf of: (i) Urstadt Property  Company,  Inc., (ii) Charles J. Urstadt,  (iii)
Elinor F. Urstadt,  (iv) the Catherine  Urstadt  Biddle  Irrevocable  Trust,  by
Charles J. Urstadt as Sole  Trustee and (v) the Charles D.  Urstadt  Irrevocable
Trust,  by Charles J. Urstadt as Sole  Trustee.  Capitalized  terms used but not
otherwise  defined herein shall have the meanings  ascribed to such terms in the
Schedule 13D.

         The Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

ITEM 1.  SECURITY AND ISSUER.

         Item 1 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended as follows:

         This  Statement on Schedule 13D relates to the Common Stock,  par value
         $.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), of Urstadt Biddle Properties Inc.,
         a Maryland corporation (the "Issuer").

ITEM 2.  IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND.

         Item 2 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended as follows:
         
         The respective names, business addresses, present principal occupations
         and citizenships of each director and executive officer of UPCO are set
         forth on Schedule I hereto.


ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

         Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby supplemented as follows:

         On June 16,  1998,  the Board of  Directors  of the  Issuer  declared a
         special stock  dividend  (the "Stock  Dividend") on the Common Stock of
         the Issuer  consisting of one share of a newly created class of Class A
         Common  Stock,  par value $.01 per share (the "Class A Common  Stock"),
         for each share of Common Stock  outstanding as of the close of business
         on July 31, 1998 (the "Record Date"). The Stock Dividend was payable on
         August 14,  1998 to holders of record of the Common  Stock at the close
         of business on the Record Date.

         Mr.  Urstadt  is the  beneficial  owner of  approximately  25.0% of the
         outstanding  shares of Common  Stock  and,  upon  payment  of the Stock
         Dividend,  Mr. Urstadt acquired  approximately 18.0% of the outstanding
         shares of Class A Common Stock. Should Mr. Urstadt sell shares of Class
         A Common  Stock and purchase  additional  shares of Common  Stock,  Mr.
         Urstadt could increase his percentage voting power.  Depending upon the
         actual number of shares of Common Stock  acquired by Mr.  Urstadt,  his
         position  could make it more  difficult  for a third party to effect an
         unsolicited  take-over attempt or to replace the current members of the
         Board  of  Directors  of  the  Issuer,   thereby   possibly   depriving
         stockholders  of the Issuer of an opportunity to sell their shares at a
         premium over prevailing market prices. While Mr. Urstadt has no present
         plans or  arrangements  to  acquire  or dispose of any shares of Common
         Stock or Class A Common Stock,  it is possible that he could dispose of
         shares of Class A Common  Stock and acquire  shares of Common Stock and
         it is his  current  intention  that if he were to acquire or dispose of
         any  shares,  he would  acquire  shares of Common  Stock and dispose of
         shares of Class A Common Stock.  Any such  purchases and sales would be
         dependent  upon a  number  of  factors,  including  market  conditions,
         availability of the shares, market prices and other factors.

         Except as  specifically  set  forth in this  Item 4, none of UPCO,  Mr.
         Urstadt,  Mrs. Urstadt, the CUB Trust or the CDU Trust has any plans or
         proposals  which  relate to or would  result in any of the  actions  or
         effects set forth in items (a)  through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule  13D,
         although such persons may develop such plans or proposals.
