ITEM I..    BUSINESS.

     General Development

     HRE Properties (the "Trust") was organized on July 7, 1969 as an
unincorporated business trust under the laws of the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts pursuant to a Declaration of Trust dated July 7, 1969, as
amended.  The Trust's headquarters are located in New York, New York.

     The Trust has qualified and has elected to be taxed as a real estate
investment trust under Sections 856-858 of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended (the "Code").  Pursuant to such provisions of the Code, a
trust which distributes at least 95% of its real estate investment trust
taxable income 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.  The Trust intends to continue to qualify
as a real estate investment trust for federal income tax purposes.   

     The Trust was formed with the intention of providing its shareholders
with a means of participating in the ownership of income-producing
properties.  The Trust owns and manages a portfolio of retail properties,
office buildings, and industrial properties.  The Trust also seeks to
identify desirable properties for acquisitions which it makes in the normal
course of business.  In addition, the Trust regularly reviews its portfolio
and from time to time considers and makes the sale of certain properties.

     At October 31, 1993, the Trust owned or had an equity interest in
twenty-two properties comprised of office buildings, shopping centers,
single tenant retail stores, and service and distribution facilities located
in sixteen states throughout the United States, containing a total of
3,075,000 square feet of gross leasable space.  The Trust also holds one
participating mortgage of $4,836,000 secured by an office building
containing 62,000 square feet of gross leasable space.

     For the five year period ended October 31, 1993, the Trust acquired
four real estate properties totalling 198,000 square feet of gross leasable
space at an aggregate purchase price of $21.8 million.  The properties were
acquired with proceeds of  $12.2 million of non-recourse first mortgage loan
financing and available cash.  In addition, the Trust has also spent nearly
$19 million to expand, renovate, improve and lease its properties.  Such
activities were financed primarily through available liquid assets.  During
this same period, the Trust sold four net leased properties totalling
359,000 square feet of gross leasable space for gross sales proceeds
aggregating $14.1 million.  The Trust also disposed of three other
properties owned in joint ventures in which it held interests (see Recent
Developments).

     At October 31, 1993, of the twenty-two properties in the Trust's
portfolio, nine were retail properties (including five shopping centers),
containing in the aggregate 1,089,000 square feet of gross leasable space. 
The Trust's retail properties collectively had approximately 128 tenants
providing a wide range of retail products and services.  Major tenants
include supermarkets, national discount department stores and a movie
theater.  At October 31, 1993, the Trust's overall occupancy rate in its
retail properties was 87.4%.  In December, 1993, the Trust acquired a
296,000 square foot shopping center located in Meriden, Connecticut at a
purchase price of $25 million.  The acquisition was financed with a $15
million first mortgage and cash.

<PAGE>

     Four properties in the Trust's portfolio are office buildings,
totalling approximately 411,000 square feet of gross leasable space.  The
office properties collectively have more than 50 tenants which offer a wide
range of services and include insurance companies, a major engineering firm
and government agencies.  At October 31, 1993, the Trust's overall occupancy
rate in its office properties was 82.7%.  The Trust also holds one
participating mortgage loan in the amount of $4,836,000 secured by an office
building containing 62,000 square feet of gross leasable space.

     Nine properties in the Trust's portfolio are service and distribution
facilities totalling 1,575,000 square feet of gross leasable space,
consisting of six automobile and truck parts distribution warehouses leased
to Chrysler Corporation, two truck sales and service centers and one
automobile tire distribution facility.  The service and distribution
facilities are net leased under long-term lease arrangements whereby the
tenant pays all taxes, insurance, maintenance and other operating costs of
the property during the term of the lease.  Rents paid by Chrysler
Corporation to the Trust exceed 10% of the Trust's gross rental revenues.

     At October 31, 1993, the Trust also owned a portfolio of mortgage notes
receivable consisting of fixed rate mortgages aggregating $4,081,000
(excluding the participating mortgage described above).  The fixed rate
mortgages are secured by retail properties sold by the Trust in prior years.

     Property Management

     The Trust actively manages and supervises the operations and leasing at
six of its retail property locations.  Eleven of the Trust's properties are
net leased to single tenants under long-term lease arrangements, in which
case, management is provided by the tenants.  The Trust's remaining
properties are managed by independent third party management firms retained
by the Trust.  The Trust closely supervises the management firms it engages
to manage its properties.

     Recent Developments

     During fiscal 1993, the Trust acquired two properties at an aggregate
purchase price of $6.2 million.  The Trust also spent $1.5 million for
leasing costs and capital improvements to properties it already  owns.  The
Trust expects to spend similar amounts in fiscal 1994 for its properties. 
Substantially all such capital improvements were incurred in connection with
the Trust's office and retail leasing activities.  During the 1993 fiscal
year, the Trust leased over 130,000 square feet of gross leasable space,
compared to 157,000 square feet in the prior year.  The square footage
leased in fiscal 1993 comprised nearly 9% of the total gross leasable space
of the Trust's retail and office building properties.  

     In light of continuing adverse office market conditions in fiscal 1993,
the Trust disposed of its interests in three office building properties
totaling 525,000 square feet having an aggregate net book value of
approximately $8.4 million.  The properties were owned in various joint
ventures and were subject to nonrecourse mortgage debt.  Two of the
properties were foreclosed upon by the respective mortgage lenders after the
joint ventures elected not to make required debt service payments.  The
Trust agreed to sell its 50% interest in the joint venture owning the third
office property for $250,000.  For additional information, see Item 7,
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations" and Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Trust.

<PAGE>

     The Trust intends to continue to invest substantially all of its assets
in income producing real estate, with a primary emphasis on shopping
centers, although the Trust will retain the flexibility to invest in other
types of real property.  While the Trust is not limited to any geographical
location, the Trust's current strategy is to invest in properties located in
the Northeastern United States.

     Competition

     The real estate investment business is highly competitive.  The Trust
competes for real estate investments with investors of all types, including
domestic and foreign corporations, financial institutions, other real estate
investment trusts and individuals.  In addition, the Trust's properties are
subject to local competitors from the surrounding areas.

     The Trust's office buildings compete for tenants principally with
office buildings throughout the respective areas in which they are located. 
In most areas where the Trust's office buildings are located, competition
for tenants is intense.  Leasing space to prospective tenants is generally
determined on the basis of, among other things, rental rates, location,
physical quality of the property and availability of space.  The shopping
centers compete for tenants with other regional, community or neighborhood
shopping centers in the respective areas where Trust retail properties are
located.

     Since the Trust's industrial properties are all net leased under long-
term lease arrangements which are not due to expire in the near future, the
Trust does not currently face any competitive pressures with respect to such
properties.

     Employees

     The Trust has 15 employees, six of whom oversee the management of the
Trust's real estate portfolio, analyze potential acquisition properties and
determine which properties, if any, to sell.  The Trust's remaining
employees serve in various professional, executive and administrative
capacities.

                     =====                 =====

 The Trust made distributions to shareholders aggregating $1.08 per Common
Share during the fiscal year ended October 31, 1993.  The Trust has paid
quarterly dividends on its Common Shares since it commenced operations as a
real estate investment trust in 1969.

 Although the Trust intends to continue to declare quarterly dividends on
its Common Shares, no assurances can be made as to the amounts of any future
dividends.  The declaration of any future dividends by the Trust is within
the discretion of the Board of Trustees, and will be dependent upon, among
other things, the earnings, financial condition and capital requirements of
the Trust, as well as any other factors deemed relevant by the Board of
Trustees.  Two principal factors in determining the amounts of dividends are
(i) the requirement of the Code that a real estate investment trust
distribute to shareholders at least 95% of its real estate investment trust
taxable income, and (ii) the amount of the Trust's funds from operations.
 The Trust has a Dividend Reinvestment and Share Purchase Plan which allows
shareholders to acquire additional shares by automatically reinvesting
dividends.  Shares are acquired pursuant to the Plan at a price equal to the
higher of 95% of the market price of such shares on the dividend payment
date or 100% of the average of the daily high and low sales prices for the
five trading days ending on the day of purchase without payment of any
brokerage commission or service charge.  Approximately 16% of the Trust's
eligible shareholders currently participate in the Plan.

     ITEM VII..MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
     FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Trust meets its liquidity requirements primarily by generating funds
from the operations of its properties, sale of real estate investments and
collection of principal and interest on its mortgage notes receivable. 
Payments of expenses related to real estate operations, capital improvement
programs, debt service, management and professional fees, and dividend
requirements place demands on the Trust's liquidity.

The Trust believes that the financial resources currently available to it
are sufficient to meet all of its known obligations and commitments and to
make additional real estate investments when appropriate opportunities
arise.  At October 31, 1993, the Trust had $7.1 million in available cash
and cash equivalents.  Long-term debt consisted of five mortgage notes
payable totalling $24.2 million, of which $226,000 in principal payments are
due  in fiscal 1994.  Current liabilities including current installments of
principal payments of mortgage notes payable were approximately $1.1
million.  During fiscal 1993, the Trust obtained proceeds of $6.6 million in
connection with first mortgage loan financing.  The loans are collateralized
by two of the Trust's properties.  The Trust also renewed its $5 million
unsecured line of credit arrangement with a major commercial bank on terms
and conditions similar to the expiring arrangement.  No amounts were
outstanding under the line of credit arrangement at October 31, 1993.  In
November 1993, the Trust obtained a $3 million nonrecourse first mortgage
loan commitment from a major commercial bank which will be secured by one of
the Trust's properties.  The proceeds are expected to be used in future
property acquisitions.  

During fiscal 1993, the Trust acquired two properties at an aggregate
purchase price of $6.2 million.  Funds for the acquisitions were provided
principally from available cash and cash equivalents and $600,000 in first
mortgage loan proceeds.  The Trust expects to make additional real estate
investments in the future.  The funds for such investments may come from
existing liquid assets, line of credit arrangements, proceeds from property
sales, financing of acquired or existing properties or the sale of mortgage
notes receivable.  In December 1993, the Trust acquired a 296,000 square
foot shopping center in Meriden, Connecticut.  The total purchase price was
$25 million consisting of $10 million cash (including $5 million drawn under
the line of credit arrangement) and first mortgage financing of $15 million. 
The first mortgage bears interest at 7.5% per annum and matures in five
years.  The Trust also invests in its existing properties and during fiscal
1993, spent approximately $1.5 million on its properties for capital
improvement and leasing costs.  The Trust expects to invest similar amounts
in the next fiscal year.

<PAGE>

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Trust defines "funds from operations" as net income, before gains on
sales of properties and non-recurring items, adjusted for noncash charges
and credits, recoveries of investment in properties owned subject to
financing leases, and cash distributions received from unconsolidated joint
ventures.  The Trust believes the level of funds from operations to be an
important financial measure of its operating performance.  For the fiscal
years ended October 31, 1993, 1992 and 1991, funds from operations were
$7,036,000, $6,902,000 and $7,841,000, respectively.  

FISCAL 1993 VS. FISCAL 1992

REVENUES

Gross revenues in 1993 were $16.2 million compared to $16.9 million in 1992. 
Net loss in 1993 was $4,963,000 or $.94 per share compared to net income of
$1,588,000 or $.30 per share in 1992.  1993's net loss includes $8,285,000
of noncash charges to write down the book values of three office building
investments which were disposed of.  The Trust also reported gains on sales
of properties of $2,330,000.  There were no gains on sales of properties in
1992.

Operating lease income declined 4.9% in fiscal 1993 compared to fiscal 1992
primarily as a result of the disposition of the Trust's Portland office
building.  The Trust discontinued recording the revenues and expenses of the
property after a receiver was appointed for the property  in connection with
a foreclosure proceeding.  Rents from other office building investments
reflect lower occupancy especially at the Trust's office building located in
Denver, Colorado where a tenant occupying 34,000 square feet of space failed
to renew its lease upon expiration in April 1993.  Revenues from retail
properties increased by approximately 14.7% reflecting the income earned
from shopping centers acquired by the Trust in fiscal 1992 and 1993 and
improved occupancy at the Trust's Newington, New Hampshire property.  1992's
revenues included a one-time payment of $960,000 earned by the Trust for
consenting to a lease assignment at its Los Angeles shopping center.

Interest income decreased principally from lower rates of return on short-
term investments and lower levels of cash and cash equivalents available for
short-term investment.  Interest earned from a loan to unconsolidated joint
venture decreased when the loan in the principal amount of $800,000 became
non-performing and was subsequently written off during the year.


<PAGE>

EXPENSES

Real estate operating expenses in fiscal 1993 include the effect of shopping
centers acquired by the Trust and the disposition of the Portland building. 
The increase in interest expense reflects two nonrecourse mortgage loans
totaling $11.65 million with interest rates of 9 5/8% and 8.5% obtained in
fiscal 1992 and the satisfaction of a nonrecourse mortgage loan with an
outstanding balance of $13.5 million pursuant to foreclosure proceedings.

In light of continuing adverse office market conditions including excess
supply of available space, weak tenant demand, declining rents, significant
capital requirements and debt service obligations, the Trust determined in
fiscal 1993 that the additional funds required to meet these obligations was
not justified by the near-term prospects for two of the Trust's office
building investments.  In this connection, the Trust had discussions with
the first mortgagees for two of its office buildings located in Portland,
Oregon and Charlotte, North Carolina, seeking among other things, certain
modifications to the mortgage loan terms to more closely reflect current
market conditions.  The office buildings were owned by joint ventures in
which the Trust is a 50% or more partner.  The outstanding balances of the
two nonrecourse mortgages totaled $19.1 million. Subsequently, the joint
ventures elected not to make debt service payments on the first mortgage
loan obligations and as a result, the mortgagees filed actions seeking
foreclosure of the properties.  The mortgagees obtained foreclosure
judgments and the properties were sold.  As a result of these developments,
the Trust recorded a charge of $2.6 million and $800,000 in the accompanying
1993 consolidated statement of income to reflect the Portland property's
carrying value at its estimated fair value and to write off the Trust's net
investment of $800,000 in a second mortgage loan to the joint venture in
Charlotte.

For similar reasons discussed above, the Trust also reached an agreement in
principle to sell its 50% interest in another unconsolidated joint venture
to its partner for $250,000.  The joint venture owns an office building
located in Santa Ana, California.  During fiscal 1993, the Trust recorded a
charge of $4.9 million to reflect its investment in the unconsolidated joint
venture at net realizable value.

The Trust recorded a gain on sale of properties of $2.3 million or  $.44 per
share in connection with a sale in February, 1993 of the Trust's 62,000
square foot retail property located in Los Angeles, California.

<PAGE>

FISCAL 1992 VS. FISCAL 1991

REVENUES:

Operating lease revenue increased by 6.4% in fiscal 1992 compared to the
prior year. The increase in revenues included rents of $960,000 earned by
the Trust for consenting to a lease assignment at its Los Angeles shopping
center.  1992's revenues also included rents of $328,000 earned from
properties acquired during the year.  Revenues earned from the Trust's
office building investments declined as combined occupancy at the office
properties fell to 81% by the end of fiscal 1992.  Occupancy at the Trust's
retail properties improved from the prior year with much of the improvement
occurring at the Trust's Newington, New Hampshire property, where leasing in
fiscal 1992 raised occupancy levels from 48% at the end of fiscal 1991 to
70% at year end, 1992.


Interest income and interest from loans to unconsolidated joint ventures
declined in the aggregate by $827,000 principally from repayments in fiscal
1991 of mortgage notes receivable and the subsequent investment of those
proceeds into shorter-term instruments yielding lower rates of return. 
Interest yields on short-term investments were lower in fiscal 1992 compared
to the prior year.

EXPENSES:

Real estate operating and general and administrative expenses were lower in
fiscal 1992 as a result of the Trust's efforts to contain these components
of expense.  Depreciation and amortization was lower in fiscal 1992 as a
result of the write-off of unamortized tenant improvement costs of $215,000
in fiscal 1991, which related to the bankruptcy of a retail tenant in that
year.

The increase in interest expense was attributable to the addition of a
nonrecourse mortgage note payable in the principal amount of $2.55 million
with interest at 8.5% per annum.

(1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of HRE Properties
(the Trust), its wholly-owned subsidiary, and certain joint ventures where
the Trust has the ability to control the affairs of the venture. Other joint
ventures are accounted for by the equity method of accounting. Under the
equity method, only the Trust's net investment and proportionate share of
income or loss of the joint ventures are reflected in the financial state-
ments. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been
eliminated in consolidation and in the application of the equity method of
accounting.

ACCOUNTING FOR LEASES
The Trust accounts for its leases of real property in accordance with the
provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Statement No. 13, Accounting
for Leases, as amended. This Statement sets forth specific criteria for
determining whether a lease should be accounted for as an operating lease or
a direct financing lease. In general, the financing lease method applies
where property is under long-term lease to a creditworthy tenant and the
present value of the minimum required lease payments at the inception of a
lease is at least 90% of the market value of the property leased. Other
leases are accounted for as operating leases.

FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
The Trust believes it qualifies and intends to continue to qualify as a real
estate investment trust under the Internal Revenue Code. The Trust has
distributed all of its taxable income for the fiscal years through 1993.
Accordingly, no provision has been made for Federal income taxes in the
accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Taxable income of the Trust prior to the dividends paid deduction for the
years ended October 31, 1993, 1992 and 1991 was approximately $3,900,000,
$2,000,000 and $3,600,000, respectively. The difference between net income
for financial reporting purposes and taxable income results from, among
other things, different methods of accounting for leases, depreciable lives
related to the properties owned, installment gains and accounting differenc-
es related to the Trust's investments in joint ventures.

DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION
The Trust uses the straight-line method for depreciation and amortization.
Acquisition costs and general improvement costs are depreciated over the
estimated useful lives of the properties, which range from 30 to 45 years.
Furniture and equipment are depreciated over their estimated useful lives,
which range from 3 to 20 years. Tenant improvements, deferred leasing costs
and leasehold improvements are amortized over the life of the related
leases. All other deferred charges are amortized over the terms of the
agreements to which they relate.

CAPITALIZATION
The Trust capitalizes all direct costs relating to the acquisition of real
estate investments and costs relating to improvements to properties.
Interest costs and the Trust's direct supervisory costs relating to signifi-
cant improvements are capitalized during the period of construction.
Capitalized interest and direct supervisory costs were not significant in
each of the three years ended October 31, 1993. The Trust also capitalizes
all direct costs relating to its successful leasing activities.

INCOME RECOGNITION
Rental income is generally recognized based on the terms of leases entered
into with tenants. Rental income from leases with scheduled rent increases
is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Additional rents
which are provided for in leases, are recognized as income when earned and
their amounts can be reasonably estimated. Interest income is recognized as
it is earned. Gains on sales of properties are recorded when the criteria
for recognizing such gains under generally accepted accounting principles
have been met. 

<PAGE>

STATEMENTS OF CASH FLOWS
The Trust considers short-term investments with maturities of 90 days or
less to be cash equivalents. 

ALLOWANCE FOR POSSIBLE INVESTMENT LOSSES
The Trust periodically reviews its portfolio for other than temporary
declines in values below the amounts at which the investments are recorded
for financial accounting purposes.(See Notes 3 and 4.) 

NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE
Computations of net income per common share are based on the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding during the respective periods.
The additional shares issuable upon exercise of stock options (see Note 7)
have not been included in the computations since their effect is immaterial.

(3) PROPERTIES OWNED

Space at properties owned by the Trust is generally leased to various
individual tenants under short-and intermediate-term leases which are
accounted for as operating leases. Certain properties have been leased on a
long-term basis to a single tenant; these leases are generally accounted for
as direct financing leases.

<PAGE>
The Trust had a 92% joint venture interest in an office building located in
Portland Oregon, which property was subject to a nonrecourse first mortgage
loan with an outstanding principal balance of $13,540,000.  During fiscal
1993, the joint venture elected not to make required debt service payments
in an attempt to renegotiate the mortgage loan with the lender.  However,
the first mortgage lender refused to negotiate the terms of the mortgage
loan and commenced foreclosure proceedings against the property.  The Trust
wrote down the carrying amount in this property to its estimated fair value
which approximated the related mortgage note payable balance at the time of
foreclosure.  This write-down amounted to approximately $2.6 million and is
included in "Write-down in carrying value of investments" in the accompany-
ing consolidated statements of income.  The property was sold by judicial
sale in September, 1993, at which time the Trust wrote off both its invest-
ment and the related nonrecourse mortgage note payable.  The foreclosure of
the property and the satisfaction of the mortgage note payable represent a
noncash financing activity and therefore is not included in the accompanying
consolidated statement of cash flows for the year ending October 31, 1993.

In 1993, the Trust acquired two properties for an aggregate purchase price
of $6.2 million.  The acquisitions were financed principally from available
cash and cash equivalents and a $600,000 nonrecourse first mortgage loan.


At October 31, 1993 and 1992, properties owned consisted of the following
(in thousands):

                                                  1993        1992

                                             =========      =========


Minimum rental payments on noncancellable operating leases become due as
follows:  1994 - $10,047,000; 1995 - $9,477,000; 1996 - $8,658,000; 1997 -
$7,692,000; 1998 - $6,256,000; and thereafter - $23,252,000.

In addition to minimum rental payments, certain tenants are required to pay
additional rental amounts based on increases in property operating expenses
and/or their share of the costs of maintaining common areas. Certain of the
Trust's leases provide for the payment of additional rent based on a per-
centage of the tenant's revenues. Such additional rents are included in
rental income and aggregated approximately $559,000, $529,000 and $587,000
in 1993, 1992 and 1991, respectively.

Assumed residual values are based upon a depreciated cost concept using
estimated useful lives and thus do not contain an element of appreciation
which may result by reason of inflation or other factors.
Minimum lease payments receivable on direct financing leases become due at a
rate of  $2,866,000 in 1994, $2,810,000 in 1995,  $2,454,000 in 1996,
$1,734,000 in 1997, $1,468,000 in 1998 and $2,996,000 thereafter.

Annual rental payments of approximately $2.5 million are received from one
tenant which leases distribution space under direct financing lease arrange-
ments. 



(4) INVESTMENTS IN AND LOANS TO UNCONSOLIDATED JOINT VENTURES

The Trust's investments in and loans to unconsolidated joint ventures at
October 31, 1993 and 1992 were as follows (in thousands):

In 1993, the Trust agreed to sell its 50% interest in an unconsolidated
joint venture to its partner for $250,000.  The joint venture owns an office
building in Santa Ana, California.  In this connection, the Trust recorded a
charge of $4,885,000 to reflect the Trust's investment in the unconsolidated
joint venture at its net realizable value which charge is included in
"Write-down in carrying value of investments" in the accompanying consoli-
dated statements of income.

The Trust also wrote off the $800,000 loan to unconsolidated joint venture
which became non-performing as to principal and interest during 1993. 
Subsequent to fiscal 1993, the joint venture was liquidated following the
foreclosure actions taken by the first mortgage lender.

(5) MORTGAGE NOTES RECEIVABLE

The Trust's portfolio of mortgage notes receivable consists of fixed rate
mortgages and one participating mortgage. The participating mortgage
($4,836,000 at October 31, 1993 and 1992) entitles the Trust to a fixed rate
of interest plus a participation in increases in the property's income and
market value. The components of the mortgage notes receivable at October 31,
1993 and 1992 were as follows (in thousands):

                                               1993      1992

                                                         -------  --------
                                                         $24,226   $31,226

Mortgage notes payable are collateralized by various real estate investments
having a net carrying value of $39,902,000 as of October 31, 1993.  All
mortgage notes payable are nonrecourse except the variable rate note in the
amount of $6 million for which the Trust has guaranteed the repayment of
$1.5 million of principal and all unpaid and accrued interest thereon.  In
connection with the variable rate note, the Trust has entered into an
interest rate swap agreement in the notional amount of $6 million.  Under
the terms of the swap agreement, the Trust has agreed to pay interest at an
annual rate of 7.55% on the notional amount in exchange for interest at
prime minus 1/4% on the notional amount.  This agreement which matures in
2000, effectively fixes the interest rate at 7.55% for the term of the note.

Scheduled principal payments during the next five years are as follows: 
1994 - $226,000; 1995 - $228,000; 1996 - $232,000; 1997 - $17,764,000;
1998 - $760,000; and thereafter -  $5,016,000.

The Trust has available a $5 million unsecured line of credit with a
commercial bank, which expires on September 1, 1994.  In connection with
this arrangement, the Trust has agreed to maintain certain deposit account
balances with the bank.  Loans bear interest at rates tied to the prime
rate.  The Trust pays a fee of 1/4% per annum of the unused portion of a $5
million line of credit commitment.  No amounts were outstanding at October
31, 1993 and 1992.

Interest paid for the years ended October 31, 1993, 1992 and 1991 was,2,4-
94,000, $2,318,000 and $2,165,000 respectively.

(7) STOCK OPTIONS AND SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS PLAN

At October 31, 1993, 463,875 shares of the Trust's authorized but unissued
stock were reserved for issuance to key employees of the Trust and certain
non-employee trustees under the Trust's stock option plan. Options are
granted at fair market value on the date of the grant and are generally
exercisable in installments over a maximum period of four years from the
date of grant. A summary of stock options at October 31, 1993 and 1992 is as
follows:

                                               Number       Option Price
                                              of Shares        Per Share
Outstanding at October 31,
  1993                                         270,917       $11.38-$27.00
  1992                                         330,192       $11.38-$27.00
Exercisable at October 31, 1993                106,084       $11.38-$27.00

No accounting recognition is given to stock options until they are exer-
cised, at which time the proceeds 
are credited to shareholders' equity. During the years ended October 31,
1993 and 1992, no options were exercised.

Stock appreciation rights may be issued in tandem with the stock options, in
which case, either the option or the right can be exercised. Such rights
entitle the grantee to payment in cash or a combination of common shares and
cash equal to the increase in the value of the shares covered by the option
to which the stock appreciation right is related. The plan limits the value
of the stock appreciation rights to 150% of the option price for the related
shares. The excess of the market price of the shares over the exercise price
of vested options is charged to expense. For the years ended October 31,
1993, l992 and 1991, there were no amounts charged to expense.

The Board of Trustees adopted a Preferred Share Purchase Rights Plan in
1988. In this connection, the Board of Trustees declared a dividend distri-
bution of one preferred share purchase right for each outstanding common
share. The rights, which expire on November 13, 1998, are not currently
exercisable. When they are exercisable, the holder will be entitled to
purchase from the Trust one one-hundredth of a share of a newly-established
Series A Participating Preferred Stock at a price of $65 per one one-hundre-
dth of a preferred share, subject to certain adjustments. The rights will
become exercisable 10 days after a person or group either acquires 20%
(acquiring person) or more of the Trust's shares, or announces an offer the
consummation of which would result in such person or group owning 30% or
more of the shares. Following any such 20% acquisition, shareholders other
than the acquiring person will be entitled to use the rights to purchase
common shares of the Trust at 50% of market value.

If the Trust is involved in a merger or other business combination at any
time after the rights become exercisable, the rights will be modified to
entitle a holder other than the acquiring person to purchase a number of
shares of common stock of the acquiring company having a market value of
twice the exercise price of each right.


(8) SALES OF PROPERTIES

In February 1993, the Trust sold a retail property net leased to a single
tenant for a cash price of $3,250,000 resulting in a gain on sale of
property of $2,330,000.

In October 1991, the Trust sold a mortgage note receivable for a cash price
of $3.1 million, which approximated its carrying value. The mortgage note
was secured by retail property which was sold by the Trust in 1986. This
transaction resulted in the recognition of the remaining deferred gain on
the sale of the property of approximately $1,800,000 and is included in
gains on sales of properties in the accompanying financial statements.

<PAGE>

(9) COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCY AND OTHER MATTERS

In November 1993, the Trust obtained a commitment from a major commercial
bank for a seven-year $3 million non-recourse first mortgage loan at an
annual interest rate of 7.56%.  The loan will be secured  by retail property
having a book value of approximately $5 million.

In December 1993, the Trust acquired a 296,000 square foot retail shopping
center located in Meriden, Connecticut for a purchase price of $25 million. 
The property was acquired subject to a nonrecourse first mortgage loan of
$15 million.  The mortgage loan bears interest at an annual rate of 7.5% for
a five-year term.

The Trust leases its executive office space under an agreement which expires
in 1995. Annual base rents are subject to escalation as provided for in the
lease. Minimum annual rentals are $292,700 through the end of the lease.
Rent expense for the fiscal years ended October 31, 1993, 1992 and 1991 was
$401,000, $384,000, and $343,000, respectively.

Consulting fees were paid to a trustee (and former officer) pursuant to an
employment and consulting agreement between the trustee and the Trust which
agreement expires in November 1993. Certain trustees have elected to defer
payment of fees earned as trustees until their termination as a trustee or
revocation of their election. Deferred fees earn interest at rates set
annually by the Board of Trustees, currently 7.5% per annum.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

To the Shareholders of HRE Properties:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of 
HRE Properties (the Trust), a Massachusetts voluntary association, and
subsidiary as of October 31, 1993 and 1992, and the related consolidated
statements of income, cash flows and shareholders' equity for each of the
three years in the period ended October 31, 1993. These financial statements
and the schedules referred to below are the responsibility of the Trust's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements and 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, evi-
dence 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, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of HRE Properties and
subsidiary as of October 31, 1993 and 1992, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended October 31, 1993 in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.  The schedules listed in the accompa-
nying index to financial statements are presented for purposes of complying
with the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and are not part of the
basic financial statements.  These schedules have been subjected to the
auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements
and, in our opinion, fairly state in all material respects the financial
data required to be set forth therein in relation to the basic financial
statements taken as a whole.
