THE COMPANY
The Company is a self-administered and self-managed real
estate investment trust (a "REIT") that began operations
through a related entity in 1972. At September 30, 1997, the
Company owned a diversified portfolio of 278 in-service
industrial, office and retail properties (the "Properties"),
encompassing approximately 34.2 million square feet located
in seven states, and 31 buildings and one building expansion
encompassing approximately 4.5 million square feet under
development. The Company also owned approximately 1,500
acres of unencumbered land (the "Land") for future
development, of which approximately 72% is zoned for
industrial use and which is typically located adjacent to
the Properties. The Company provides leasing, management,
construction, development and other tenant-related services
for the Properties and certain properties owned by third
parties. The Company believes that the Midwest offers a
relatively strong and stable economy compared to other
regions of the United States and provides significant growth
potential due to its central location, established
manufacturing base, skilled work force and moderate labor
costs.
The Company has developed approximately 52 million square
feet of commercial property since its founding including an
average of approximately 4.4 million square feet per year
during the last five years. In addition, the Company
acquired approximately 8.9 million square feet during the
three years ended December 31, 1996. During the nine months
ended September 30, 1997, the Company placed in service 3.9
million square feet of new development and acquired 3.4
million square feet of property.
The Company manages approximately 47 million square feet
of property, including over 8.2 million square feet owned by
third parties. The Company manages approximately 35% and 29%
of all competitive suburban office, warehousing and light
manufacturing space in Indianapolis and Cincinnati,
respectively. In addition to providing services to more than
1,900 tenants in the Properties, the Company provides such
services to over 900 tenants in 92 properties owned by third
parties. Based on market data maintained by the Company, the
Company believes that it was responsible in the first nine
months of 1997 for approximately 67% and 34% of the net
absorption (gross space leased minus lease terminations and
expirations) of competitive suburban office, warehousing and
light manufacturing space in Indianapolis and Cincinnati,
respectively. The Company believes that its dominant
position in the primary markets in which it operates gives
it a competitive advantage in its real estate activities.
All of the Company's interests in the Properties and Land
are held directly or indirectly by, and substantially all of
its operations relating to the Properties are conducted
through Duke Realty Limited Partnership (the "Operating
Partnership"). Partnership interests ("Units") in the Operating
Partnership may be exchanged by the holders thereof, other than
the Company, for Common Stock of the Company on a one-for-one
basis. Upon an exchange of Units for Common Stock, the Company's
percentage interest in the Operating Partnership will increase.
The Company controls the Operating Partnership as the sole general
partner and owner, as of September 30, 1997 of approximately 92% of the
S - 3
<PAGE>
Units. In addition, the senior management team of the Company
owns approximately 10.75% of the Company through Common Stock and
Unit ownership.
The following tables provide an overview of the Properties.

On October 23, 1997, the Company's Board of Directors
raised its regular quarterly common dividend from $.295 per
share to $.30 per share, payable on November 28, 1997 to
common shareholders of record on November 14, 1997. This
dividend equals $1.20 on an annualized basis. The Company
effected a two-for-one split of its common stock (the "Stock
Split") which was paid on August 25, 1997 to common
shareholders of record on August 18, 1997. Share and per
share amounts in this Prospectus Supplement have been
restated to reflect the effect of the Stock Split.
FINANCING
In July 1997, the Company issued 3.0 million Depositary
Shares, each representing 1/10 of a Series B Cumulative Step-
Up Redeemable Preferred Share, raising net proceeds of
$146.1 million. These securities are not redeemable prior to
September 30, 2007 and offer a cumulative distribution of
7.99% through September 2012, and 9.99% thereafter. The
proceeds of this financing were fully used to reduce the
outstanding balance on the Company's unsecured line of
credit and to fund the development and acquisition of
additional rental properties.
The Company issued $100 million of unsecured Pass-through
Asset Trust Securities ("PATS") on August 21, 1997. The PATS
bear interest at a coupon rate of 6.95% and mature on August
15, 2004. The effective rate of the PATS is 7.347%, which
includes the effect of the settlement of a forward Treasury
lock agreement which the Company entered into in April 1997.
The Company and an affiliate of the placement agent for the
PATS can effectively agree to reset the interest rate and
remarket the underlying notes with a maturity of August 15,
2011.
The Company reduced the interest rate on its $150.0
million unsecured line of credit from the 30-day London
Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") plus 1.25% to LIBOR plus
1.00% effective March 27, 1997. Effective August 28, 1997,
the unsecured line of credit was increased to $200.0 million
and the interest rate was reduced to LIBOR plus .80%. This
line of credit also includes a "competitive bid option" and
matures in April 2001.
In September 1997, the Company issued approximately 10.5
million shares of its Common Stock for public sale through a
group of underwriters, raising net proceeds of $214.4
million. The Company also issued 926,280 shares of Common
Stock to a unit trust, raising net proceeds of approximately
$18.9 million.
DEVELOPMENT AND ACQUISITIONS
During the first eleven months of 1997, the Company
completed development of and placed in service 29 properties
and one property expansion comprising 5.3 million square
feet at a total cost of $197.9 million. The Company had 21
properties and two property expansions under development at
November 30, 1997 comprising 4.2 million square feet
S - 5
which will have a total cost of $203.4 million upon completion.
Also during the first eleven months of 1997, the Company
acquired 83 properties with 8.3 million square feet at a
total cost of $558.9 million.
These property additions (the "New Properties"), totaling
17.9 million square feet, consist of 72% industrial, 25%
office and 3% retail projects. The total cost of the New
Properties is expected to be $994.4 million. At November 30,
1997, the New Properties which have been placed in service
are 92% leased, and the New Properties under construction
are 62% pre-leased for a combined total of 85% leased. The
New Properties are expected to provide a weighted average
unleveraged stabilized return on cost (computed as property
annual contractual net operating income ("NOI") divided by
total project costs) of 10.7% with anticipated leasing
activity. The annual contractual NOI to be generated from
the New Properties, once placed in service, will be $106.0
million with anticipated additional leasing.
The Company's expectations of total cost and weighted
average unleveraged stabilized return on cost constitute
forward-looking information that is subject to risks
inherent in the completion of construction of the properties
under development and the leasing of any unleased portion of
the properties. Such risks could cause actual results to
differ materially from the Company's expectations.
The following table sets forth information regarding each
of the New Properties as of November 30, 1997.

RECENT ACQUISITIONS
During the fourth quarter of 1997, the Company purchased
two large portfolios of properties in St. Louis and
Minneapolis (the "Recent Acquisitions") for an aggregate
purchase price of approximately $297.9 million.
The following describes each of the Recent Acquisitions.
BAUR PROPERTIES. In October 1997, the Company acquired
Baur Properties' existing rental properties and operations
in St. Louis. Baur Properties has been in operation in St.
Louis for over 43 years and is one of the leading suburban
office developers and operators in the Midwest. The Baur
rental property portfolio consists of eight suburban office
buildings totaling 904,000 square feet and three industrial
buildings totaling 78,000 square feet. Seven of the suburban
office projects are located in Maryville Centre, one of the
premier suburban office parks in St. Louis. The acquisition
also included undeveloped land to accommodate approximately
one million square feet of additional suburban office

development and the property management and development operations
of Baur Properties. Accordingly, Edward T. Baur, the Chairman of
Baur Properties, became Vice President and General Manager
of the Company's St. Louis operations. Along with its
existing operations in St. Louis, the Company believes this
acquisition will make it the dominant real estate developer
in this market. The Company believes this acquisition is in
accordance with its strategy of dominating its Midwestern
markets.
R.L. JOHNSON COMPANY. In October 1997, the Company
acquired R.L. Johnson Company's existing rental properties
and operations in Minneapolis. R.L. Johnson Company has been
in operation for over 34 years and is one of the leading
developers and operators of industrial real estate in
Minneapolis. The R.L. Johnson rental property portfolio
consists of 41 industrial buildings totaling 3.2 million
square feet. Robb Johnson, the President of R.L. Johnson
Company, became Vice President and General Manager of the
Company's Minneapolis operations. The Company believes this
acquisition is in accordance with its strategy of dominating
its Midwestern markets.
USE OF PROCEEDS
The net proceeds to the Company from the sale of the
Common Stock offered hereby are expected to be approximately
$9.5 million. The Company presently intends to use the net
proceeds to retire the outstanding balance on its lines of
credit (the "Lines of Credit") and to fund development and
acquisition of additional rental properties. See "Recent
Developments." The Lines of Credit are expected to have an
outstanding balance of approximately $10.0 million on
December 23, 1997, bearing interest at LIBOR plus .65% to
.80%.

The last reported sale price of the Common Stock on the
New York Stock Exchange on December 18, 1997 was $22.25 per
share. As of December 15, 1997, there were 4,371 registered
holders of Common Stock.
Since its organization in 1986, the Company has paid
regular and uninterrupted dividends. The Company intends to
continue to declare quarterly dividends on its Common Stock.
However, no assurances can be given as to the amounts of
future dividends as such dividends are subject to the
Company's cash flow from operations, earnings, financial
condition, capital requirements and such other factors as
the Board of Directors deems relevant. The Company has
determined that approximately 1% of the per share
distribution for 1996 represented return of capital to the
shareholders for income tax purposes. No assurance can be
given that such percentage will not change in future years.

CERTAIN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS
GENERAL
The provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended (the "Code"), pertaining to REITs are highly
technical and complex. The following is a brief and general
summary of certain provisions that currently govern the
federal income tax treatment of the Company and its
shareholders. For the particular provisions that govern the
federal income tax treatment of the Company and its
shareholders, reference is made to Sections 856 through 860
of the Code and the regulations thereunder. The following
summary is qualified in its entirety by such reference.
Investors are urged to consult their own tax advisors with
respect to the appropriateness of an investment in the
Common Stock offered hereby and with respect to the tax
consequences arising under federal law and the laws of any
state, municipality or other taxing jurisdiction, including
tax consequences resulting from such investor's own tax
characteristics. As used in this section, the term "Company"
refers solely to Duke Realty Investments, Inc.
Management believes the Company was organized and has
operated, and intends to continue to operate, in such a
manner as to meet the requirements for qualification and
taxation as a REIT under the Code, but no assurance can be
given that the Company has so qualified or will at all times
so qualify. In the opinion of Bose McKinney & Evans, counsel
to the Company, assuming the Company was organized in
conformity with and has satisfied the requirements for
qualification and taxation as a REIT under the Code for each
of its taxable years from and including the first year for
which the Company made the election to be taxed as a REIT,
the proposed method of operation of the Company will permit
the Company to continue to qualify to be taxed as a REIT for
its current and subsequent taxable years. This opinion is
based upon certain assumptions relating to the organization
and operation of the Company, the Operating Partnership and
their subsidiaries and is conditioned upon certain
representations made by Company personnel and affiliates as
to certain factual matters relating to the Company's past
operations and the intended manner of future operation of
the Company, the Operating Partnership and their
subsidiaries.
To qualify as a REIT under the Code for a taxable year,
the Company must meet certain organizational and operational
requirements, which generally require it to be a passive
investor in operating real estate and to avoid excessive
concentration of ownership of its capital stock. So long as
the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT and distributes
at least 95% of its REIT taxable income (computed without
regard to net capital gain and the dividends paid
deduction) for its taxable year to its shareholders, it will
not be subject to federal income tax with respect to such
income that it distributes to its shareholders. The Company
will be taxed at regular corporate rates on all income not
distributed to shareholders. REITs also may incur taxes for
certain other activities or to the extent distributions do
not satisfy certain other requirements.
If the Company fails to qualify during any taxable year as
a REIT, unless certain relief provisions are available, it
will be subject to tax (including any applicable alternative
minimum tax) on its taxable income at regular corporate
rates, which could result in a discontinuation of or
substantial reduction in dividends to shareholders and
therefore have a material adverse effect upon its
shareholders. If disqualified for taxation as a REIT for a
taxable year, the Company would also be disqualified for
taxation as a REIT for the four taxable years thereafter,
unless such failure were considered to be due to reasonable
cause and not willful neglect.
In any year in which the Company qualifies to be taxed as
a REIT, distributions made to its shareholders out of
current or accumulated earnings and profits will be taxed to
shareholders as ordinary income except that distributions of
net capital gains designated by the Company as capital gain
dividends will be taxed as long-term capital gain income to
the shareholders. However, corporate shareholders may be
required to treat up to 20% of certain capital gain
dividends as ordinary income. Corporate shareholders will
also not be eligible for the dividends received deduction
with respect to ordinary or capital gain dividends. To the
extent that distributions exceed current or accumulated
earnings and profits, they will constitute a return of
capital, rather than dividend or capital gain income, and
will reduce the basis for the shareholder's Common Stock
with respect to which the distribution is paid or, to the
extent that they exceed such basis, will be taxed in the same
manner as gain from the sale of that Common Stock.

RECENT LEGISLATION
Prospective purchasers should be aware that the recently
enacted Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997 (the "1997 Act") made
numerous changes to the Code, including reducing the maximum
tax imposed on net capital gains from the sale or exchange
of assets held for more than 18 months by individuals,
trusts and estates to 20%. This reduced tax rate is
effective for sales and exchanges occurring after July 28,
1997. The 1997 Act also makes certain changes to the
requirements to qualify as a REIT and to the taxation of
REITs and their shareholders.
The 1997 Act contains significant changes to the taxation
of capital gains of individuals, trusts and estates. For
gains realized after July 28, 1997, and subject to certain
exceptions, the maximum rate of tax on net capital gains of
individuals, trusts and estates from the sale or exchange of
assets held for more than 18 months has been reduced to 20%,
and the maximum rate is reduced to 18% for assets acquired
after December 31, 2000 and held for more than five years.
For taxpayers who would be subject to a maximum tax rate of
15%, the rate on net capital gains is reduced to 10%, and
effective for taxable years commencing after December 31,
2000, the rate is reduced to 8% for assets held for more
than five years. The maximum rate for net capital gains
attributable to the sale of depreciable real property held
for more than 18 months is 25% to the extent of the
deductions for depreciation with respect to such property.
Long-term capital gain allocated to a shareholder by the
Company will be subject to the 25% rate to the extent that
the gain does not exceed depreciation on real property sold
by the Company. The maximum rate of capital gains tax for
capital assets held more than one year but not more than 18
months remains at 28%. The taxation of capital gains of
corporations was not changed by the 1997 Act.
The 1997 Act also includes several provisions that are
intended to simplify the taxation of REITs. These provisions
are effective for taxable years beginning after the date of
enactment of the 1997 Act which, as to the Company, is its
taxable year commencing January 1, 1998. First, in
determining whether a REIT satisfies the income tests, a
REIT's rental income from a property will not cease to
qualify as "rents from real property" merely because the
REIT performs services for a tenant other than permitted
customary services if the amount that the REIT is deemed to
have received as a result of performing such impermissible
services does not exceed one percent of all amounts received
directly or indirectly by the REIT with respect to such
property. The amount that a REIT will be deemed to have
received for performing impermissible services is at least
150% of the direct cost to the REIT of providing those
services. Second, certain non-cash income, including income
from cancellation of indebtedness and original issue
discount, will be excluded from income in determining the
amount of dividends that a REIT is required to distribute.
Third, a REIT may elect to retain and pay income tax on any
net long-term capital gains and require its shareholders to
include such undistributed net capital gains in their
income. If a REIT makes such an election, the REIT's
shareholders would receive a tax credit attributable to
their share of capital gains tax paid by the REIT on the
undistributed net capital gain that was included in the
shareholders' income, and such shareholders will receive an
increase in the basis of their shares in the amount of
undistributed net capital gain included in their income
reduced by the amount of the credit. Fourth, the 1997 Act
repeals the requirement that a REIT receive less than 30% of
its gross income from the sale or disposition of stock or
securities held for less than one year, gain from prohibited
transactions, and gain from certain sales of real property
held less than four years. Finally, the 1997 Act contains a
number of technical provisions that reduce the risk that a
REIT will inadvertently cease to qualify as a REIT.

UNDERWRITING
Subject to the terms and conditions contained in the terms
agreement and related underwriting agreement (collectively,
the "Underwriting Agreement"), the Company has agreed to
sell to Legg Mason Wood Walker Incorporated (the
"Underwriter"), and the Underwriter has agreed to purchase
from the Company, 449,438 shares of Common Stock at the
public offering price less the underwriting discounts and
commissions set forth on the cover page of this Prospectus
Supplement. The Underwriting Agreement provides that the
Underwriter's obligation to purchase the Common Stock is
subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including
the receipt of certain legal opinions. The nature of the
Underwriter's obligation is such that it is committed to
purchase all of the shares of Common Stock if any shares are
purchased.
The Underwriter intends to deposit the Common Stock
offered hereby with the trustee of Legg Mason REIT Trust,
December 1997 Series (the "Trust"), a registered unit
investment trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940,
as amended, in exchange for units of the Trust. If all of
the Common Stock so deposited is valued at the last reported
sale price for the Common Stock on the NYSE on December 18,
1997, the aggregate underwriting commissions would be
$450,022.27. The Underwriter is acting as sponsor and
depositor of the Trust, and is therefore considered an
affiliate of the Trust.
In the Underwriting Agreement, the Company has agreed to
indemnify the Underwriter against certain liabilities,
including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, or to contribute to payments the Underwriter may be
required to make in respect thereof.
In connection with the Offering, the rules of the
Securities and Exchange Commission permit the Underwriter to
engage in certain transactions that stabilize the price of
the Common Stock. Such transactions may consist of bids or
purchases for the purpose of pegging, fixing or maintaining
the price of the Common Stock.
If the Underwriter creates a short position in the Common
Stock in connection with the Offering (i.e., if it sells
more shares of Common Stock than are set forth on the cover
page of this Prospectus Supplement), the Underwriter may
reduce that short position by purchasing Common Stock in the
open market.
In general, purchases of a security for the purpose of
stabilization or to reduce a short position could cause the
price of the security to be higher than it might otherwise
be in the absence of such purchases.
Neither the Company nor the Underwriter makes any
representation or prediction as to the direction or
magnitude of any effect that the transactions described
above may have on the price of the Common Stock. In
addition, neither the Company nor the Underwriter makes any
representation that the Underwriter will engage in such
transactions or that such transactions, once commenced, will
not be discontinued without notice.
In the ordinary course of business, the Underwriter has in
the past and may in the future from time to time provide
investment banking, financial advisory and commercial
banking services to the Company and its affiliates for which
customary compensation has been and will be received. The
Underwriter has acted as one of several representatives of
various underwriters in connection with various offerings of
the Company's Common Stock in 1993 through 1997.
LEGAL MATTERS
In addition to the legal opinions for the Company
referred to under "Legal Opinions" in the accompanying
Prospectus, the description of Federal income tax matters
contained in this Prospectus Supplement entitled "Certain
Federal Income Tax Considerations" is based upon the opinion
of Bose McKinney & Evans. The legality of the shares of
Common Stock offered hereby will be passed upon for the
Underwriters by Hunton & Williams, Richmond, Virginia.
Hunton & Williams will rely on Bose McKinney & Evans as to
certain matters of Indiana law.
