Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

(1)  Basis of Presentation

     The  accompanying unaudited financial statements  have  been
prepared   in  accordance  with  generally  accepted   accounting
principles  for  interim  financial  information  and  with   the
instructions  to  Form  10-Q and Rule 10-01  of  Regulation  S-X.
Accordingly,  they  do  not include all of  the  information  and
footnotes  required  by generally accepted accounting  principles
for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management,
all   adjustments  (consisting  of  normal  recurring   accruals)
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been  included.
The  financial statements should be read in conjunction with  the
annual report and the notes thereto.

(2) Reclassifications

      Certain reclassifications have been made in the fiscal 1994
financial   statements   to   conform   to   the   fiscal    1995
classifications.

(3)   Subsequent Events

       On  April  3,  1995,  the Trust purchased  383,775  shares
(17.4%)  of LNH REIT, Inc. ("LNH") and the other 50% of LNH  REIT
Managers,  a  partnership which provides management  services  to
LNH.   These  purchases were made from Walker Investments,  L.P.,
and  related  entities  for a total of  $3,070,200.   After  this
purchase,  the  Trust owns 515,200 shares (23.4%)  of  LNH.   The
Trust borrowed $3,000,000 from a bank to finance the acquisition.
The loan which matures April 5, 1996, bears interest at the prime
rate and is secured by the shares of LNH.


      On  April  17,  1995,  the Trust purchased  187,000  shares
(5.22%)  of  Copley Properties, Inc., ("Copley"), a  real  estate
investment trust, for $1,870,000.

      In  April 1995, the Trust increased its revolving  line  of
credit  from $5,000,000 to $7,000,000 with interest at the  prime
rate and a maturity date of April 30, 1996.

      In  April  1995,  the Trust accepted  a  deed  in  lieu  of
foreclosure  on  the  108  unit  EastGate  Apartments   leasehold
improvements  in Wichita, Kansas, after the owners  defaulted  on
payments  to  the Trust. The mortgage loan had a  face  value  of
$2,000,000  and  a  carrying value of $1,009,000,  and  the  land
purchase-leaseback had a carrying value of $225,000.   The  Trust
obtained legal title to the property in April 1995.  No  gain  or
loss  will be recorded for financial reporting purposes  relating
to  the  foreclosure.   The Trust expects to spend  approximately
$200,000 during 1995 in capital improvements to the property.

      The  Trust has a contract for the sale of its Iroquois land
purchase-leaseback investment with a carrying value  of  $320,000
for  cash of $1,195,000 which is scheduled to close no later than
June 30, 1995.

                      EASTGROUP PROPERTIES
             MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
          FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

FINANCIAL CONDITION
(Comments  are  for  the  balance sheet  dated  March  31,  1995,
compared to December 31, 1994.)

      Real  estate properties increased $513,000 during the first
quarter  of 1995 as a result of capital improvements on  existing
Trust  properties.  Accumulated depreciation increased $1,262,000
due to recent purchases of real estate properties.

     Mortgage loans receivable decreased $26,000 during the first
quarter of 1995.  This decrease in mortgage loans receivable  was
the  result of scheduled principal payments received of  $54,000,
offset by amortization of loan discounts of $28,000.

      Land  and  land  purchase-leaseback  investments  decreased
$448,000 during the first quarter of 1995, primarily as a  result
of the sale of the Winchester Ranch ("Winchester") land purchase-
leaseback  investment.   In February 1995,  the  Trust  sold  its
Winchester  land purchase-leaseback investment in  Dallas,  Texas
for $862,000 and recognized a gain of $412,000.

      Investments in real estate investment trusts decreased from
$954,000  at  December 31, 1994 to $864,000 at  March  31,  1995.
During the first quarter of 1995, the Trust recognized $9,000  of
equity  in  earnings  of  LNH offset  by  dividends  received  of
$99,000.   In  April 1995, the Trust increased its  ownership  in
Investments  in real estate investment trusts as described  under
"Liquidity and Capital Resources".

      Other assets decreased $233,000 during the first quarter of
1995, primarily as a result of capitalized leasing commissions of
$245,000,  offset by amortization of $129,000.  Also,  the  Trust
incurred $120,000 in development costs for the construction of  a
36,400   square  foot  distribution  building  at  the   Phillips
Distribution  Center  in southeastern Jacksonville.  These  costs
will be transferred to real estate properties upon completion  of
the  building.   These increases were offset by  the  receipt  of
$422,000 from a bankruptcy settlement related to the motel  loans
that was accrued at December 31, 1994.

      Mortgage notes payable decreased $229,000 during the  first
three   months  of  1995  as  a  result  of  scheduled  principal
repayments.

      Notes  payable  to  banks  decreased  from  $28,671,000  at
December  31, 1994 to $27,752,000 at March 31, 1995.  On  January
9,  1995, $1,280,000 was borrowed on the acquisition line and the
proceeds reduced the working capital line.  As of March 31, 1995,
the acquisition line had a balance of $25,327,000 and the working
capital line had a balance of $2,425,000.

     Undistributed earnings decreased from $9,723,000 at December
31, 1994 to $9,325,000 at March 31, 1995 as a result of dividends
declared   of  $1,900,000  exceeding  net  income  for  financial
reporting purposes of $1,502,000.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(Comments are for the three months ended March 31, 1995, compared
to the three months ended March 31, 1994.)

     Property  net  operating  income  (PNOI)  from  real  estate
properties,  defined as income from real estate  operations  less
property   operating  expenses  (before  interest   expense   and
depreciation) increased by $1,433,000 or 53% for the three months
ended March 31,1995 compared to the three months ended March  31,
1994.

      Property net operating income (loss) and percentage  leased
by property type were as follows:



                              PNOI             Percentage Leased

Total PNOI             $ 4,145   $  2,712
                       =======    =======

      PNOI from industrial properties increased $852,000 for  the
three  months ended March 31, 1995, compared to March  31,  1994.
This  is  primarily  the  result of the acquisition  of  Exchange
Distribution  Center  ("Exchange")  in  May  1994,  Jetport   516
Commerce  Park ("JetPort 516") in May 1994, Phillips Distribution
Center  ("Phillips") in July 1994, Northwest Point Business  Park
("Northwest")   in  September  1994,  Westport  Commerce   Center
("WestPort")  in October 1994 and Baxter Warehouse ("Baxter")  in
December  1994.  Industrial properties held throughout the  three
months  ended March 31, 1995 and 1994 showed an increase in  PNOI
of  27% for 1995.  Also contributing to the increase in PNOI from
industrial   properties  was  improved  operations   at   Rampart
Distribution   Center   ("Rampart"),   Jetport   Commerce    Park
("Jetport"), 56th Street Commerce Park ("56th Street")  and  Lake
Pointe  Business  Park  ("Lake Pointe").  The  Trust's  apartment
properties  increase  in PNOI of $510,000 for  the  three  months
ended  March  31, 1995 compared to March 31, 1994 is attributable
primarily   to  the  acquisition  of  Plantations   at   Killearn
("Plantations")   in   April  1994,  Hampton   House   Apartments
("Hampton") in August 1994 and Grande Pointe Apartments  ("Grande
Pointe")  in  September  1994.   PNOI  from  the  Trust's  office
buildings  increased $71,000 as a result of  the  acquisition  of
Santa  Fe  in  February  1994, offset  by  reduced  occupancy  at
Leesburg Pike.

      Land  rents decreased $83,000 primarily as a result of  the
sale  of  the  Parklane  on Peachtree and Winchester  Ranch  land
purchase-leaseback investments.

      Equity  in earnings from LNH of $9,000 was recorded  during
the  three  months ended March 31, 1995, compared to $118,000  in
1994.

      Interest income on mortgage loans increased $13,000 for the
three  months ended March 31, 1995 compared to 1994, as a  result
of  interest income from mortgage loans made by the Trust to  the
co-owner  of WestPort and Exchange, offset by interest which  was
not  accrued on the EastGate mortgage note receivable, which  was
foreclosed  on  in  April  1995.   The  Trust  is  negotiating  a
restructuring of the four past due motel mortgage loans with  the
borrower.   Although the Trust may restructure certain  of  these
loans,  the  Trust does not believe, based on the  value  of  its
collateral, that any additional allowances will be required.

      Interest  expense to banks increased as a result of  higher
average  bank borrowings on the Trust's revolving line of  credit
and  the acquisition line of credit and an increase in the  prime
rate by approximately 2.5% during the year.

      At  the  Trust's annual meeting on December 16,  1994,  the
shareholders voted to implement a new incentive compensation plan
which   eliminated  stock  appreciation  rights   and   incentive
compensation units. Stock appreciation rights expense (recovery),
which was adjusted quarterly based on fluctuations in the Trust's
quoted  share  price, was ($141,000) for the three  months  ended
March 31, 1994.

      General  and administrative expenses increased $67,000  for
the  three  months ended March 31, 1995 compared  to  1994  as  a
result   of   the  increase  in  total  assets  from   the   1994
acquisitions.

      In  February 1995, the Trust sold its Winchester Ranch land
purchase-leaseback  investment  for  $862,000.    For   financial
reporting  purposes, the Trust recognized a gain of  $412,000  on
the sale.

      The  Trust  expenses apartment unit turnover cost  such  as
carpet,  painting and small appliances. Capital  expenditures  in
the three months ended March 31, 1995 by category are as follows:

         Upgrades on acquisitions           $ 224,000
         Major Renovation                      16,000
         Tenant improvements:
           New tenants                        171,000
           Renewal tenants                     23,000
         Other                                 81,000
                                            ---------
                                            $ 515,000
                                            =========

      For  the  three  months ended March  31,  1995,  the  Trust
capitalized  $206,000 of  leasing costs, which included  $204,000
related to new tenants and $2,000 related to renewal tenants, and
$39,000  of financing costs and included these amounts  in  other
assets.   The  Trust  amortized $74,000  related  to  capitalized
leasing costs and $56,000 related to financing costs and included
these  amounts in depreciation and amortization expense.  Leasing
costs  are  amortized  over the life of the lease  and  financing
costs are amortized over the life of the loan.

     Rental income included straight-line rent of $28,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 1995.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     Cash provided by operating activities was $3,125,000 for the
three  months  ended  March  31,  1995.   The  Trust  distributed
$1,900,000 of this amount in dividends which left $1,225,000  for
other  purposes.   Other  sources of  cash  were  collections  on
mortgage loan receivables, sale of real estate investments,  bank
borrowings  on  the  $5,000,000  working  capital  line  and  the
$45,000,000  acquisition line.  Primary uses  of  cash  were  for
capital  improvements  at  the  various  properties,  bank   debt
payments  and  mortgage note payments.  Total debt at  March  31,
1995 is as follows:

                                               (In thousands)

     Mortgage notes payable - fixed rate          $ 37,052
     Mortgage notes payable - floating rate          2,277
     Bank notes payable - floating rate             27,752
                                                  --------
     Total debt                                   $ 67,081
                                                  ========

      A one percent increase in the prime interest rate increases
interest  expense  $300,000 on an annual  basis.   The  Trust  is
currently  in the process of obtaining approximately  $24,000,000
in nonrecourse fixed rate financing with 10 year terms.  Interest
rates  of  8.688%   on $5,950,000 and 8.125% on $11,000,000  have
been  fixed and the Trust expects the remaining amounts  to  have
favorable  rates  based on presently prevailing  interest  rates.
The  Trust is also contemplating selling properties that  do  not
meet  its  continuing strategy, and using the proceeds to  reduce
floating  rate debt.  The Trust does not anticipate a  return  to
the capital markets until its stock price improves.

      In  April 1995, the Trust increased its revolving  line  of
credit from $5,000,000 to $7,000,000 with interest at prime and a
maturity  date  of  April 30, 1996.  The  increase  in  the  line
provided  funds for the acquisition of 187,000 shares  of  Copley
Properties, Inc. in April 1995 for $1,870,000. Borrowings on this
line  were  $2,425,000 at March 31, 1995. The Trust  also  has  a
$45,000,000 acquisition line, which bears interest at  the  prime
rate  plus  .125% and matures on April 30, 1997.   Borrowings  on
this  line  were $25,327,000 at March 31, 1995.  The  acquisition
note's  principal balance must be reduced to $1,000  by  May  31,
1996  or  the Trust cannot request additional advances under  the
line  and  the  total outstanding balance of  the  line  must  be
reduced to $30,000,000 by December 1, 1996.

      In April 1995, the Trust borrowed $3,000,000 from a bank to
finance  the  acquisition of 383,775 shares  of  LNH.   The  loan
matures April 5, 1996 with interest at the prime rate secured  by
the shares of LNH.

      Budgeted capital expenditures for the year ending  December
31, 1995 are as follows:

      The  Trust  anticipates  that  its  current  cash  balance,
operating  cash  flow and borrowings (including borrowings  under
the revolving line of credit) will be adequate to pay the Trust's
(i)  operating  and  administrative expenses, (ii)  debt  service
obligations,  (iii) distributions to shareholders,  (iv)  capital
improvements, and (v) normal repair and maintenance  expenses  at
its properties both in the short and long term.
