The Trustee
The Rouse Company Savings Plan:


We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for plan
benefits of The Rouse Company Savings Plan as of December 31, 1995 and 1994 and
the related statements of changes in net assets available for plan benefits for
the years then ended.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Plan's management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.

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

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for plan benefits of The Rouse
Company Savings Plan as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the changes in net
assets available for plan benefits for the years then ended in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.  The supplemental schedules of assets
held for investment purposes and reportable transactions are presented for the
purpose of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic
financial statements but are supplementary information required by the
Department of Labor Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.  The fund information in the
statements of net assets available for plan benefits and the statements of
changes in net assets available for plan benefits is presented for purposes of
additional analysis rather than to present the net assets available for plan
benefits and the changes in net assets available for plan benefits of each fund.
The supplemental schedules and fund information have been subjected to the
auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and,
in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the
basic financial statements taken as a whole.

                         Notes to Financial Statements

                           December 31, 1995 and 1994



(1)  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
     ------------------------------------------

     (a)  Basis of presentation
          ---------------------

          The financial statements of The Rouse Company Savings Plan (the Plan)
          have been prepared on the accrual basis and present the net assets
          available for benefits and the changes in those net assets.

     (b)  Investments
          -----------

          Investments in the common stock and convertible preferred stock of The
          Rouse Company and the T. Rowe Price mutual funds are carried at fair
          values determined by quoted market prices. Investments in the
          insurance contracts are carried at contract value (representing
          contributions made plus interest credited less distributions) as the
          insurance contracts held by the Plan are "fully benefit-responsive,"
          as defined in Statement of Position 94-4, Reporting of Investment
          Contracts Held by Health and Welfare Benefit Plans and Defined-
          Contribution Pension Plans. Loans to participants are carried at cost,
          which approximates fair value. Security transactions are recognized on
          a trade date basis. Unrealized appreciation and depreciation in the
          fair values of investments are recognized in the periods in which the
          changes occur.

     (c)  Administrative expenses
          -----------------------

          The Rouse Company pays all administrative expenses incurred on behalf
          of the Plan. Terminated participants who have left their account
          balances in the Plan are required to reimburse the Company for
          administrative expenses relating to their accounts. Participants
          requesting loans from the Plan are required to pay an administrative
          fee to the Company for the processing of such loans.

     (d)  Use of estimates
          ----------------

          The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
          accepted accounting principles requires the Plan's management to make
          estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of net assets
          and disclosures of contingencies at the date of the financial
          statements and changes in net assets recognized during the reporting
          period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

(2)  General Description of the Plan
     -------------------------------

     The following brief description of the Plan summarizes the principal
     provisions of the Plan and is provided for general information purposes
     only. Participants should refer to the Plan agreement for more complete
     information.

                        THE ROUSE COMPANY SAVINGS PLAN

                         Notes to Financial Statements


(2)  General Description of the Plan, Continued
     ------------------------------------------

     The Plan was established effective June 1, 1983 to provide employees of The
     Rouse Company and certain of its subsidiaries and affiliates (the Company)
     an incentive to save for retirement and for financial emergencies.
     Generally, employees who are not covered under a collective bargaining
     agreement, who are at least 21 years of age and who have completed 1,000
     hours of service in one year are eligible to participate in the Plan.

     Basic contributions to the Plan are made pursuant to salary reduction
     agreements between the Company and participants. Participants may elect to
     reduce their compensation, as defined in the Plan, by amounts ranging from
     1% to 15% of such compensation, subject to an annual limitation. Employees
     may also make supplemental contributions to the Plan in amounts up to 9% of
     compensation, as defined. The supplemental contributions are not pursuant
     to salary reduction agreements. Participants are able to defer payment of
     income taxes on their basic contributions to the Plan, related
     contributions by the Company and all income realized on accounts maintained
     under the Plan.

     Participants' contributions to the Plan are allocated among the various
     investment programs based on their instructions, subject to certain
     limitations defined in the Plan. Participants may change their allocation
     instructions and transfer accumulated savings between funds on a monthly
     basis, subject to certain limitations defined in the Plan.

     Matching contributions are made by the Company to each participant's
     account in an amount equal to $1.00 for every $2.00 of a participant's
     basic contribution up to 6% of such participant's base salary. The
     Company's matching contributions are invested in the Company's common stock
     or convertible preferred stock based on participants' instructions. In
     addition, the Company may make additional contributions to the Plan under
     certain circumstances. Such additional contributions are distributed to
     accounts of participants pursuant to guidelines set forth in the Plan.
     Participants who joined the Plan prior to January 1, 1989 obtained an
     immediate and fully vested interest in all contributions made by the
     Company. Participants who joined the Plan on or after January 1, 1989 are
     required to complete two years of service, as defined in the Plan, to
     become fully vested in the Company's contributions. Forfeitures of
     nonvested Company contributions may be used by the Company to satisfy
     future matching contribution requirements.

     Participants or their beneficiaries are eligible for distributions upon
     retirement, disability, termination of employment or death of the
     participant. In addition, participants may make withdrawals from their
     accounts upon attainment of age 59-1/2. Participants may also make
     withdrawals of their basic contributions by reason of financial hardship,
     under specific guidelines set forth in the Plan. Subject to certain
     limitations, supplemental contributions may be withdrawn by participants
     for any reason.

     Generally, participants may borrow from the Plan up to the lesser of
     $50,000 or 50% of their vested account balances. Interest on such
     borrowings and repayment schedules are determined pursuant to guidelines in
     the Plan. Generally, borrowings bear interest at the prime rate of a
     designated commercial bank at the time of the loan application and must be
     repaid to the Plan over a period not to exceed five years.

(2)  General Description of the Plan, Continued
     ------------------------------------------

     While the Company has not expressed any intent to terminate the Plan, it is
     free to do so at any time. In the event of termination of the Plan, the
     Plan's assets would be distributed to the participants in accordance with
     the Plan agreement.

                        THE ROUSE COMPANY SAVINGS PLAN

                         Notes to Financial Statements

(3)  Investments, Continued
     ----------------------

     The investments in insurance contracts consist of guaranteed income
     contracts offered by various insurance companies. The Plan deals only with
     highly rated insurance companies and does not expect that any of them will
     fail to meet their obligations under the contracts. The contracts in effect
     at December 31, 1995, provide for interest at rates ranging from 4.93% to
     7.40% and mature at various dates to 1999. The average yield on the
     contracts was 5.82% in 1995 and 5.70% in 1994. The aggregate contract value
     of the contracts in effect at December 31, 1995 approximates their
     aggregate estimated fair value based on current market interest rates for
     contracts with similar maturities and credit quality.

(4)  Federal Income Tax Status
     -------------------------

     The Internal Revenue Service has determined and informed the Company by a
     letter dated August 11, 1995 that the Plan and related trust are designed
     in accordance with applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC)
     and, accordingly, are tax-exempt. The Plan's management believes that the
     Plan continues to qualify and to operate in accordance with applicable
     provisions of the IRC.

(5)  Reconciliation to Form 5500
     ---------------------------

     Amounts due to terminated participants for benefits payable of $1,266,932
     at December 31, 1995 and $45,040 at December 31, 1994 are reported as
     liabilities in the Plan's Annual Report on Department of Labor Form 5500,
     but are included in net assets available for plan benefits in the financial
     statements.
