                             CUSIP NO. 029-177-409

Item 1. Security and Issuer

        Item 1 is hereby amended to read as follows:

        This amendment relates to the Common Shares, $0.01 par value (the
"Shares"), of American Realty Trust, Inc., a Georgia corporation (the
"Company"), and amends the statement on Schedule 13D filed on March 15, 1996.
The principal executive offices of the Company are located at 10670 North
Central Expressway, Suite 600, Dallas, Texas  75231.

Item 2. Identity and Background

        Item 2 is hereby amended to read as follows:

        This statement is being filed on behalf of Basic Capital Management,
Inc. ("BCM"), Continental Mortgage and Equity Trust ("CMET"), National
Operating, L.P. ("NOLP"), and Gene E. Phillips Children's Trust (the "GEP
Trust") (collectively the "Reporting Persons").

        BCM, CMET, NOLP, and the GEP Trust may be deemed to constitute a
"person" within the meaning of Section 13 (d) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended, because BCM is beneficially owned by a trust established for
the benefit of Gene E. Phillips' children and the executive officers of BCM are
also executive officers of CMET.  Gene E.  Phillips is a general partner of
Syntek Asset Management, L. P . ("SAMLP"), which is the general partner of
