         This Amendment No. 26 amends and supplements the Schedule 13D Statement
originally filed by Interstate Properties ("Interstate") on September 26, 1980
with respect to the Common Stock, par value $1.00 per share (the "Shares"), of
Alexander's, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"). The statement on
Schedule 13D, as heretofore amended and supplemented and as amended and
supplemented hereby, remains in full force and effect.

Item 2.  Identity and Background.

         (a), (f) This Statement is being filed by Interstate, a New Jersey
general partnership. Interstate owns approximately 17.8% of the outstanding
common shares of beneficial ownership of Vornado Realty Trust, a Maryland real
estate investment trust ("Vornado").

Item 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

         (a)-(b) Interstate owns 1,354,568 Shares (27.1% of the 5,000,850 Shares
reported by the Company as outstanding as of February 25, 2000 in its Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 1999). Interstate has sole
voting and dispositive power with respect to such Shares. While Interstate may
be deemed to be a group with Vornado and Vornado Realty L.P. (the "Operating
Partnership") and thus to beneficially own all Shares held by Vornado and the
Operating Partnership (1,654,068 Shares or 33.1%), Interstate does not have sole
or shared voting or dispositive power with respect to such Shares. Including the
Shares Vornado and the Operating Partnership beneficially own, Interstate would
own 3,008,636 Shares (60.2%). In addition, Mr. Steven Roth, a general partner of
Interstate and Chief Executive Officer and a director of the Company, owns
9,700 Shares and holds vested options to buy 119,000 Shares for $70.375 per
Share (representing an aggregate beneficial ownership of 1.9%), as to which he
has sole voting and dispositive power; Mr. Russell B. Wight, Jr., a general
partner of Interstate and director of the Company, beneficially owns 9,500
Shares owned by the Wight Foundation and holds vested options to buy 3,400
Shares for $70.375 per Share (representing an aggregate beneficial ownership of
0.2%), as to which Mr. Wight holds sole voting and dispositive power; and David
Mandelbaum, a general partner of Interstate and director of the Company, holds
vested options to purchase 3,400 Shares for $70.375 per Share (representing
beneficial ownership of 0.1%), as to which Mr. Mandelbaum holds sole
dispositive power.

         (c) Other than the acquisition of 51,900 Shares by the Operating
Partnership (41,500 of which were acquired on March 31, 2000, 10,000 of which
were acquired on April 4, 2000, and 400 of which were acquired on April 5,
2000) there have been no transactions in the Shares effected by Vornado, the
Operating Partnership or Interstate or any of the executive officers or trustees
of Vornado or general partners of Interstate or the Operating Partnership in the
past sixty days.

certify that the information set forth in this statement is true, complete and
correct.
