                               SCHEDULE 13D ITEMS


Item 1. Security and Issuer

      This Amendment No. 1 amends the Schedule 13D filed July 3, 1997 (as so
amended, the "Schedule") by the Reporting Person (as defined below) relating to
the Common Stock, $0.01 par value (the "Common Stock"), of Griffin Land &
Nurseries, Inc. (the "Issuer"), a Delaware corporation having its principal
executive offices at One Rockefeller Plaza, Suite 2301, New York, New York
10020. The purpose of this Amendment No. 1 is to report the acquisition of
additional shares of Common Stock by Reporting Persons on September 17, 1999 (as
described in Item 4 below) and to update Insert 1 and the cover pages hereto to
reflect this acquisition as well as other non-reportable acquisitions since July
3, 1997.

Item 2. Identity and Background

            See Insert 1 attached hereto.

            None of the persons filing this Schedule (the "Reporting Persons")
has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (other than for traffic violations
or similar misdemeanors) during the past 5 years or is subject to a judgment,
decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or
mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any
violations with respect to such laws. All individuals are citizens of the United
States and all trusts, partnerships and corporations are organized or formed
under the laws of the United States. The Reporting Persons have executed a joint
filing agreement in connection with the filing of this Schedule, a copy of which
has been filed as Exhibit 1 hereto.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

      Funds used in connection with the acquisition of securities subject to
this Schedule were funds from sale of other securities bank borrowings and other
separate funds of the Trusts making the acquisitions.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

      On September 17, 1999, Frederick M. Danziger, as trustee of two trusts
made by Elsie B. Paskus for the benefit of Frederick M. Danziger and his
family, purchased 27,200 shares of Common Stock at a price per share of $11.00
per share, and a trust for the benefit of Lucy C. Danziger his spouse,
purchased 6,500 shares at $11.00 per share. On July 20, 1999, two trusts for the
benefit of Lucy C. Danziger purchased 12,100 shares at average price of $11.20
and 3,400 shares were purchased in the two trusts for the benefit of Lucy C.
Danziger on July 21, 1999, at $11.35 per shares.

      The purpose of these acquisitions is to hold such shares for investment
purposes. Mr. Danziger, a Reporting Person, is also the Chief Executive Officer
of the Issuer and a member of its Board of Directors. The acquisition of Common
Stock is unrelated to any plans or proposals of the kind described in item 4 of
Scheduled 13D and, except as previously disclosed by the Issuer in its reports
pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Reporting
Persons have no current plans or proposals related to, or which they believe
would result in, any of the events described in Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

            See Insert 1 hereto and cover pages.

            Voting power and power to direct disposition of securities is shared
by trustees of each of the trusts referred to in Item 2 as set forth on Insert
1. The officers and directors of the Samuel J. Bloomingdale Foundation, Inc.,
the Susan B. and Richard C. Ernst Foundation, Inc. and Louise B. and Edgar M.
Cullman Foundation, Inc. and the trustees of charitable trust created by Justus
Heijmans (collectively, the "Foundations") referred to in Insert 1 as set forth
on Insert 1 hereto share voting power and the power to dispose of such
securities. Such shares are, however, not included in the individual totals
shown on cover pages. Shares owned by B. Bros. Realty Limited Partnership are
shown as beneficially owned for voting and dispositive purposes by both General
Partners of that partnership and also by the partnership itself.

            No transactions in the Issuer's Common Stock were effected during
the 60 days preceding the date hereof by the persons filing this Schedule and
their affiliated persons other than as set forth in Item 4 above.

Item 6. Contract, Arrangement or Understanding with Respect to Securities of the
Issuer

            None other than an informal understanding that the persons and
entities listed in Insert 1 attached hereto will hold and vote together the
shares of Issuer's Common Stock owned by each of them. However, Trustees of
trusts and partners of the partnership listed in Insert 1 may act independently
where fiduciary responsibilities so require. Furthermore, the persons and
entities listed in Insert 1 may acquire additional shares of the Issuer's Common
Stock.

            Although the Foundations are included in Insert 1, no arrangement of
any kind exists with respect to any of the Issuer's Common Stock held by such
Foundations. Such Foundations were included in Insert 1 only because certain of
the undersigned are officers and directors of such Foundations.

Item 7. Material to the Filed as Exhibits

            A copy of the Joint Filing Agreement, including powers of attorney,
is attached hereto as Exhibit 1 to Schedule 13D.

            Each of the undersigned hereby certifies after reasonable inquiry,
that to the best of his/her knowledge and belief, the information set forth in
this statement is true, complete and correct.

Date: Sept 22, 1999
