ITEM 5.  OTHER EVENTS

Acquisitions and Probable Acquisitions:


     The following acquisitions of multifamily communities, including one
community under contract, were or will be made by Security Capital Pacific Trust
(PTR) from unrelated parties. PTR acquired, or will acquire, these communities
because PTR and its REIT manager, Security Capital Pacific Incorporated, believe
that multifamily community investment in certain western United States markets
present excellent long term opportunities for consistent rental increases, high
occupancies and value appreciation.

     PTR acquired Sierra Hills apartments on April 17, 1997 from a corporation.
Sierra Hills is a 300 unit, middle income complex located in San Bernadino,
California. PTR acquired this community through a tax-deferred exchange, using
disposition proceeds of approximately $18.7 million. At the date of purchase,
the community's occupancy rate was 98.0%.

     PTR acquired Los Padres apartments on April 23, 1997 from a general
partnership. Los Padres is a 245 unit, middle income complex located in Santa
Clara, California. PTR acquired this community through a tax-deferred exchange,
using disposition proceeds of approximately $30.5 million. At date of purchase,
the community's occupancy rate was 96.3%.

     PTR acquired La Jolla Point apartments on April 24, 1997 from a
partnership. La Jolla Point is a 328 unit, middle income complex located in La
Jolla (San Diego County), California. PTR acquired this community for
approximately $30.6 million through a tax-deferred exchange, using disposition
proceeds of approximately $9.0 million and assumed a mortgage note payable in
the amount of $21.6 million. At date of purchase, the community's occupancy rate
was 95.7%.

     PTR acquired Cambrian apartments on June 3, 1997 from an agency of the
State of California. Cambrian is a 422 unit, middle income complex located in
Seattle, Washington. PTR acquired this community through a tax-deferred
exchange, using disposition proceeds of approximately $41.1 million. At date of
purchase, the community's occupancy rate was 97.2%.

     PTR acquired Pelican Point apartments on June 26, 1997 from a limited
partnership. Pelican Point is a 400 unit moderate income complex located in
Ventura, California. PTR acquired this community for approximately $29.0 million
through a tax-deferred exchange, using disposition proceeds of approximately
$13.0 million and assumed a mortgage note payable in the amount of $16.0
million. At the date of purchase, the community's occupancy rate was 97.8%.

     PTR acquired Le Club apartments on June 30, 1997 from a limited
partnership. Le Club is a 370 unit moderate income complex located in
Sacramento, California. PTR acquired this community for approximately $33.0
million through a tax-deferred exchange, using disposition proceeds of
approximately $11.3 million and assumed a mortgage note payable in the amount of
$21.7 million. At the date of purchase, the community's occupancy rate was
94.5%.

     PTR has entered into a contract with a limited partnership to purchase
Carrington Place apartments, scheduled to close in July 1997. PTR's earnest
money has become non-refundable and acquisition of this community is likely.
However, there can be no assurance that the community will be acquired.
Carrington Place is a 142 unit moderate income complex located in Salt Lake
City, Utah and on May 19, 1997 was 98.3% occupied. PTR anticipates acquiring
this community for approximately $7.2 million through a tax-deferred exchange,
using disposition proceeds of approximately $3.6 million and assuming a mortgage
note payable in the amount of approximately $3.6 million.

The Board of Trustees and Shareholders
Security Capital Pacific Trust:

     We have audited the accompanying Combined Statement of Revenues and Certain
Expenses for Certain Multifamily Communities (the Combined Statement) described
in note 1 for the year ended December 31, 1996. This Combined Statement is the
responsibility of management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the
Combined Statement based on our audit.

     We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the Combined Statement is free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the Combined Statement. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the Combined
Statement. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our
opinion.

     The accompanying Combined Statement was prepared for the purpose of
complying with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission and for inclusion in Form 8-K to be filed by Security Capital Pacific
Trust as described in note 2. The presentation is not intended to be a complete
presentation of the Communities' revenues and expenses.

     In our opinion, the Combined Statement referred to above presents
fairly, in all material respects, the combined revenues and certain expenses
described in note 2 for certain Multifamily Communities for the year ended
December 31, 1996, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

         Notes to Combined Statement of Revenues and Certain Expenses
                      for Certain Multifamily Communities

(2)  Basis of Presentation, Continued

     The Combined Statement excludes certain amounts which would not be
       comparable to the proposed future operations of the communities as
       follows:

       (a) depreciation of the building and improvements;

       (b) interest expense related to debt not assumed;

       (c) interest income;

       (d) income taxes; and

       (e) other income and expense items unique to the prior owners.

(3)  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

     Revenue Recognition

     Rental income from leasing activities consist of lease payments earned
       from tenants under lease agreements.

     Capitalization Policy

     Ordinary repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred; major
       replacements and betterments are capitalized.

     Advertising and Promotion

     The cost of advertising and promotion is expensed as incurred.

     Use of Estimates

     The preparation of the Combined Statement in conformity with generally
       accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
       assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Combined Statement
       and accompanying notes.  Actual results could differ from those
       estimates.

     Unaudited Interim Combined Statement

     The Combined Statement for the period from January 1, 1997 through the
       earlier of March 31, 1997 or date of acquisition is unaudited.  In the
       opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring
       accruals, necessary for a fair presentation of the Combined Statement for
       the interim period have been included.  The results of operations for the
       interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be
       expected for the full year for the communities.

                                                                     (Continued)

                      for Certain Multifamily Communities




(4)  Related Party Transactions

     Approximately $99 and $18 (unaudited) was accrued and paid in management
       fees to affiliates of prior owners in 1996 and 1997, respectively.

     Approximately $44 and $11 (unaudited) was paid in insurance expense to
       prior owners in 1996 and 1997, respectively.

(5)  Debt Assumption

     PTR assumed outstanding debt of approximately $21.6 million in connection
       with the acquisition of La Jolla Point. The debt consists of a
       tax-exempt variable rate mortgage note (4.35% nominal rate at April 24,
       1997) which requires quarterly principal and interest payments of $484
       through August 1, 2014 when all remaining principal and interest will be
       due and payable.

     PTR assumed outstanding debt of approximately $21.7 million in connection
       with the acquisition of Le Club. The debt consists of a tax-exempt
       variable rate bond (4.05% nominal rate at June 30, 1997) which requires
       quarterly principal and interest payments through November 1, 2015 when
       all remaining principal and interest will be due and payable.

     PTR assumed outstanding debt of approximately $16.0 million in connection
       with the acquisition of Pelican Point. The debt consists of a 7.0%
       nominal fixed rate tax-exempt mortgage note which requires monthly
       principal and interest payments of $114 until December 1, 1997 when all
       remaining principal and interest will be due and payable.

     PTR anticipates assuming outstanding debt of approximately $3.6 million
       in connection with the acquisition of Carrington Place. The debt consists
       of a 7.83% fixed rate tax-exempt mortgage note which requires monthly

                        PRO FORMA FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                  (Unaudited)

     The following unaudited pro forma financial statements for Security Capital
Pacific Trust (PTR) reflect the acquisition or expected acquisition by PTR of
the communities disclosed in this Form 8-K, Item 5 and those reported in Forms 
8-K, Item 5 dated August 1, 1996, October 14, 1996, and February 20, 1997 (the
"Previously Reported Acquisitions"). The pro forma financial statements have
been prepared based upon certain pro forma adjustments to the historical
financial statements of PTR.

     The accompanying unaudited pro forma balance sheet as of March 31, 1997 has
been prepared as if the operating communities acquired, or under contract to be
acquired, subsequent to March 31, 1997 had been acquired as of the balance sheet
date.

     The accompanying unaudited pro forma statements of earnings for the year
ended December 31, 1996 and for the three months ended March 31, 1997 have been
prepared as if  (i) the operating community acquisitions, including one
operating community under contract, reported in this Form 8-K, Item 5 and (ii)
the Previously Reported Acquisitions had occurred as of January 1, 1996.

     The acquisitions, including one community under contract, reported in this
Form 8-K, Item 5 were structured as tax-deferred exchanges and therefore the
effects of the community dispositions which funded (or are expected to fund)
these acquisitions have also been reflected in the accompanying unaudited pro
forma balance sheet as of March 31, 1997 and the unaudited pro forma statements
of earnings as if the dispositions had occurred as of January 1, 1996.

     The unaudited pro forma financial statements do not purport to be
indicative of the results which would actually have been obtained had the
transactions described above been completed on the dates indicated or which may
be obtained in the future.  The unaudited pro forma financial statements should
be read in conjunction with the combined statement of revenues and certain
expenses for certain multifamily communities included herein and the financial
statements of PTR.

     PTR assumed, or anticipates assuming approximately $62,850 in mortgage
     notes payable upon the purchase of La Jolla Point, Le Club, Pelican Point
     and Carrington Place apartments. The $127,275 balance was or is expected to
     be financed using proceeds from community dispositions held in a tax-
     deferred exchange escrow account.

(b)  The following table summarizes the pro forma balance sheet adjustments
     relating to the post March 31, 1997 dispositions. The disposition proceeds
     were or are expected to be used in part to fund community acquisitions
