FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
New York, NY (July 28, 1995)-- Midwest Centers Inc., the general partner of
Midwest Real Estate Shopping Center L.P. (the "Partnership"), reported that The
Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States ("Equitable"), which
holds a mortgage loan (the "Mortgage") secured by Brookdale Center
("Brookdale"), an enclosed regional shopping mall located in Brooklyn Center,
Minnesota and owned by the Partnership, published an advertisement for a
September 12, 1995 public nonjudicial foreclosure sale of Brookdale Center.
The Partnership is considering the alternatives available to it with respect to
such potential foreclosure sale.
The advertisement by Equitable was subsequent to the July 5, 1995 notice of
default sent by Equitable to the Partnership. The notice of default stated
that the Partnership failed to pay all principal and accrued interest due under
the Mortgage secured by Brookdale by June 30, 1995, the maturity date of the
Mortgage.
While the Partnership is in negotiations with Equitable concerning the
Mortgage, there can be no assurance that the parties will reach an agreement
that will prevent the foreclosure sale or that a buyer can be found for
Brookdale prior to the sale.
Units of Midwest Real Estate Shopping Center L.P. are traded on the New York
Stock Exchange under the symbol "EQM."
