     During the nine months ended September 30, 1995, the unrealized gain on
     securities available for sale included in shareholders' equity was adjusted
     to reflect (i) a reduction of $3,435 to the Company's investment in
     Alexander's as a result of the change from fair value to the equity method
     of accounting and (ii) a net increase of $325 in the market value of other
     securities available for sale.

         accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. These condensed
         consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with
         the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's
         1994 Annual Report to Shareholders. The results of operations for the

</TABLE>

              At December 31, 1994, the Company owned 113,100 shares of
         Alexander's common stock. The investment was carried at market value of
         $5,980,000 at December 31, 1994 (cost was $2,545,000). In March 1995,
         the Company purchased all of the 1,353,468 shares, or 27.1% of the
         common stock of Alexander's owned by Citibank, N.A. ("Citibank") for
         $40.50 per share in cash or $56,615,000 (including $1,800,000 of costs
         incurred in the purchase). As a result of the increase in its
         investment, the Company has changed its accounting for its investment
         in Alexander's to the equity method. This required a reduction of its
         investment by the unrealized gain recorded in shareholders' equity at
         December 31, 1994, of $3,435,000. Prior years' financial statements
         were not restated as a result of the change in accounting for the
         Company's investment in Alexander's due to it not being material.
         Vornado's investment in Alexander's in excess of carrying amounts has
         been allocated two-thirds to land and one-third to building, in
         accordance with purchase accounting. The building allocation in excess
         of Alexander's carrying amount is being depreciated over a 35 year
         period.

              After the acquisition, the Company owns 29.3% of the common stock
         of Alexander's. Interstate Properties owns 27.4% of the common shares
         of the Company and 27.1% of Alexander's common stock. Steven Roth is
         the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of the Company,
         the managing general partner of Interstate Properties and a Director
         and Chief Executive Officer of Alexander's.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

              In March 1995, the Company lent Alexander's $45 million, the
         subordinated tranche of a $75 million secured financing, the balance of
         which was funded by a bank. The Company's loan has a three-year term
         and bears interest at 16.43% per annum for the first two years and at a
         fixed rate for the third year of 992 basis points over the one-year
         Treasury bill rate. In addition, the Company received a loan
         origination fee of $1,500,000 from Alexander's to be amortized over the
         term of the loan.

              In March 1995, the Company and Alexander's entered into a
         three-year management and development agreement (the "Management
         Agreement"). The annual management fee payable to the Company by
         Alexander's is $3,000,000, plus 6% of development costs with a minimum
         guaranteed fee for the development portion of $1,650,000 in the first
         year and $750,000 in each of the second and third years. On July 6,
         1995, the Company assigned this Management Agreement to Vornado
         Management Corp. (see Note 3).

              The fee pursuant to the Management Agreement is in addition to the
         leasing fee the Company receives from Alexander's under the leasing
         agreement (the "Leasing Agreement") which has been in effect since
         1992. Subject to the payment of rents by Alexander's tenants, the
         Company is due $8,552,000, after the reversal of $2,424,000 of the
         receivable and the corresponding deferred leasing income applicable to
         the B.J.'s Wholesale Club and Home Depot leases in Paramus, which are
         no longer in effect. Such amount is receivable annually in an amount
         not to exceed $2,500,000 until the present value of such installments
         (calculated at a discount rate of 9% per annum) equals the amount that
         would have been paid had it been paid on September 21, 1993, or at the
         time the transactions which gave rise to the commissions occurred, if
         later. The term of the Leasing Agreement has been extended to be
         coterminous with the term of the Management Agreement.

              Effective March 2, 1995, for a three-year period, the Company and
         Interstate agreed not to own in excess of two-thirds of Alexander's
         common stock or to enter into certain other transactions with
         Alexander's, other than the transactions described above, without the
         consent of Alexander's independent directors.

              Fee income from related parties consists of:

      3.  VORNADO MANAGEMENT CORP.

              On July 6, 1995, the Company assigned its Management Agreement
         with Alexander's to Vornado Management Corp. ("VMC"), a newly formed
         New Jersey corporation. In exchange, the Company received 100% of the
         preferred stock of VMC which entitles it to 95% of net operating cash
         flow distributed by VMC to its shareholders. Steven Roth and Richard
         West, Trustees of the Company, own the common stock of VMC. In
         addition, the Company lent $5,000,000 to VMC for working capital
         purposes under a three year term loan bearing interest at the prime
         rate plus 2%. VMC will be responsible for its pro-rata share of
         compensation and fringe benefits of common employees and 30% of other
         common expenses. This entity is not consolidated and accordingly, the
         Company is accounting for its investment in VMC on the equity method.
         Below is a summarized Statement of Operations of VMC for the period
         from July 6, 1995 to September 30, 1995:

                              VORNADO REALTY TRUST

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

      The Company's revenues, which consist of property rentals, tenant expense
reimbursements and other income were $26,630,000 in the quarter ended September
30, 1995, compared to $22,856,000 in the prior year's quarter, an increase of
$3,774,000 or 16.5%. Revenues were $79,902,000 for the nine months ended
September 30, 1995, compared to $69,843,000 for the prior year's nine months, an
increase of $10,059,000 or 14.4%.

      Property rentals were $20,406,000 in the quarter ended September 30, 1995,
compared to $17,519,000 in the prior year's quarter, an increase of $2,887,000
or 16.5%. Property rentals were $59,390,000 for the nine months ended September
30, 1995, compared to $52,054,000 for the prior year's nine months, an increase
of $7,336,000 or 14.1%. Of these increases (i) $1,664,000 and $4,548,000
resulted from rents from expansions of shopping centers and recent acquisitions
of retail properties and (ii) $1,028,000 and $2,256,000 resulted from step-ups
in leases which are not subject to the straight-line method of revenue
recognition.

      Tenant expense reimbursements increased in 1995 as compared to 1994,
primarily as a result of higher real estate taxes which are passed through to
tenants.

      Other income was $365,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 1995,
compared to $189,000 in the prior year's quarter, an increase of $176,000. Other
income was $3,639,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1995, compared to
$1,200,000 for the prior year's nine months, an increase of $2,439,000. These
increases resulted primarily from the fee income recognized in connection with
the Management Agreement and Leasing Agreement with Alexander's, including
$915,000 applicable to 1993 and 1994 recognized in the first quarter of 1995. No
leasing fee income was recognized prior to 1995 because Alexander's had not
secured financing or repaid certain creditors, which were conditions precedent
to the commencement of the payment of leasing fees owed by Alexander's to the
Company. In addition to the Management Agreement fee income included in other
income in 1995, $1,088,000 was recognized in the third quarter of this year by
Vornado Management Corp. ("VMC") in connection with the Company's assignment of
its Management Agreement to VMC (see Note 3).

      On July 6, 1995 the Company assigned its Management Agreement with
Alexander's to VMC, a newly formed New Jersey corporation. In exchange, the
Company received 100% of the preferred stock of VMC which entitles it to 95% of
net operating cash flow distributed by VMC to its shareholders. In addition, the
Company lent $5,000,000 to VMC for working capital purposes under a three year
term loan bearing interest at the prime rate plus 2%. VMC will be responsible
for its pro-rata share of compensation (including bonuses) and fringe benefits
of common employees and 30% of other common expenses. For the period from July
6, 1995 to September 30, 1995 VMC had net income of $265,000, of which $252,000
was distributed to Vornado. In addition, Vornado recognized $86,000 of interest
income on its loan to VMC.

      Operating expenses were $8,095,000 in the quarter ended September 30,
1995, as compared to $7,064,000 in the prior year's quarter, an increase of
$1,031,000. Operating expenses were $23,082,000 in the nine months ended
September 30, 1995, as compared to $22,558,000 in the prior year's nine months,
an increase of $524,000. Of these increases (i) $300,000 resulted from bad debt
expense recorded in the third quarter of this year primarily due to the
prepetition receivables from tenants in bankruptcy and (ii) $735,000
resulted primarily from a decrease in the portion of real estate taxes
capitalized during construction. The increase for the nine month period was
partially offset by lower snow removal costs.

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


         Depreciation and amortization expense increased in 1995 as compared to
1994, primarily as a result of the completion of property expansions in the
fourth quarter of 1994.

         General and administrative expenses were $1,181,000 in the quarter
ended September 30, 1995, compared to $1,345,000 in the prior year's quarter, a
decrease of $164,000.  This decrease resulted primarily from a reduction in
general corporate office expenses of $596,000 resulting from the assignment of
the Company's Management Agreement with Alexander's to Vornado Management Corp
("VMC") in the third quarter of this year.  This decrease was offset by
increases in (i) payroll  of $208,000 due to additions to staff, (ii)
professional fees of $105,000 and (iii) other corporate expenses of $119,000.
General and administrative expenses were $5,018,000 in the nine months ended
September 30, 1995, compared to $4,518,000 in the prior year's nine months, an
increase of $500,000.  This increase resulted from (i) payroll expenses of
$882,000 (due to additions to staff and bonuses), and (ii) professional fees
and other corporate office expenses of $214,000, offset by (iii) the reduction
in expenses of $596,000 resulting from the assignment of the Management
Agreement as noted above.

         On March 2, 1995, the Company increased its investment in Alexander's
by 27.1% to 29.3% and as a result, changed its accounting for its investment in
Alexander's to the equity method.  For the period March 2, 1995 through
September 30, 1995 equity in such losses amounted to $1,660,000.  In addition,
for the same period the Company recognized interest income on its loan to
Alexander's of $4,379,000 and fee income of $2,884,000, excluding $1,088,000 of
Management Agreement fee income earned by VMC resulting from the assignment of
the Management Agreement as noted above.  Alexander's has advised the Company
that because it is in the development stage, its current operating properties
(four of its eight properties) do not generate sufficient cash flow to pay all
of its expenses.  Alexander's indicated that its four non-operating properties
(Rego Park, Lexington Avenue, Paramus and the Kings Plaza Store) are in various
stages of development and that rents under the Rego Park project are scheduled
to commence in March 1996.  As rents commence from a portion of the remaining
development properties, Alexander's expects that cash flow will become
positive.  Alexander's estimates that the fair market values of its assets are
substantially in excess of their historical cost and that there is additional
borrowing capacity. Therefore Alexander's may raise capital through (a)
property specific or corporate borrowing, (b) the sale of securities and (c)
asset sales.  In addition, Alexander's may receive the proceeds from certain
tax certiorari or condemnation proceedings.  Although there can be no
assurance, Alexander's believes that these cash sources will be adequate to
fund cash requirements until its operations generate adequate cash flow.  The
Company believes that its share of Alexander's losses (which are non-cash)
combined with its fee income and interest income will not have a negative
effect on its results of operations, liquidity and financial condition.
                                           
         Investment income (interest and dividend income and net gains/(losses)
on marketable securities) was $1,262,000 for the quarter ended September 30,
1995, compared to $2,127,000 in the prior year's quarter, a decrease of
$865,000 or 40.6%.  Investment income was $4,463,000 for the nine months ended
September 30, 1995, compared to $6,155,000 for the prior year's nine months, a
decrease of $1,692,000 or 27.5%.  The changes in investment income resulted
primarily from decreases in interest and dividend income of $687,000 and
$1,422,000 as a result of lower average investments due to $20,400,000 invested
in Alexander's (above the net proceeds from the sale of common shares).  Net
gains on marketable securities in the third quarter ended September 30, 1995
were $178,000 less than in the prior year's quarter.

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


         Interest and debt expense was $3,922,000 in the quarter ended
September 30, 1995, as compared to $3,546,000 in the prior year's quarter, an
increase of $376,000 or 10.6%.  Interest and debt expense was $12,494,000 for
the nine months ended September 30, 1995, compared to $10,823,000 for the prior
year's nine months, an increase of $1,671,000 or 15.4%.  Of these increases
$48,000 and $891,000 resulted from borrowings under the revolving credit
facility to temporarily fund the investment in Alexander's and $156,000 and 
$608,000 resulted from a decrease in interest capitalized during construction.

         The Company operates in a manner intended to enable it to qualify as a
real estate investment trust ("REIT") under Sections 856-860 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986 as amended (the "Code").  Under those sections, a real
estate investment trust which distributes at least 95% of its REIT taxable
income to its shareholders each year and which meets certain other conditions
will not be taxed on that portion of its taxable income which is distributed to
its shareholders.  The Company has distributed to its shareholders an amount
greater than its taxable income.  Therefore, no provision for federal income
taxes is required.

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS



         Management considers funds from operations an appropriate supplemental
measure of the Company's operating performance.  Funds from operations were
$16,253,000 in the quarter ended September 30, 1995, compared to $12,341,000 in
the quarter ended September 30, 1994, an increase of $3,912,000 or 31.7%.
Funds from operations were $45,407,000 in the nine months ended September 30,
1995, compared to $35,986,000 in the nine months ended September 30, 1994, an
increase of $9,421,000 or 26.2%.  The following table reconciles funds from
operations and net income:

       *     Effective January 1, 1995, the Company changed its definition of
             funds from operations to exclude amortization of debt issuance
             costs and depreciation of personal property.  Prior period amounts
             have been restated to conform to the current year's presentation.
             The Company's definition of funds from operations does not conform
             to the NAREIT definition because the Company deducts the effect of
             straight-lining of property rentals.

        Funds from operations does not represent cash generated from operating
activities in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and is
not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs.  Funds from
operations should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an
indicator of the Company's operating performance or as an alternative to cash
flows as a measure of liquidity.  Below are the cash flows provided by (used
in) operating, investing and financing activities:

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


       On February 27, 1995, the Company entered into a three-year unsecured
revolving credit facility with a group of banks providing for borrowings of up
to $75,000,000.  Borrowings bear annual interest, at the Company's election, at
LIBOR plus 1.50% or the higher of the federal funds rate plus 1% or prime rate
plus .50%.  At September 30, 1995, the Company had no borrowings outstanding
under the facility.  On May 3, 1995, the Company completed the sale of
2,500,000 common shares in a public offering at $34.00 per share, which net of
expenses yielded approximately $80,000,000 of which $60,000,000 was used to
repay the indebtedness incurred under the revolving credit facility in
connection with the Alexander's investment.

       On June 23, 1995, Bradlees, Inc., which accounted for 19% of property
rentals for the year ended December 31, 1994, filed for protection under
Chapter II of the U. S. Bankruptcy Code.  The leases for 19 of the 21 Bradlees
locations are fully guaranteed by Stop & Shop Companies, Inc.  Further,
Montgomery Ward & Co., Inc., remains liable for that portion of the rent it was
obligated to pay in 8 of these 19 locations.

       The Company anticipates that cash from continuing operations, net liquid
assets, borrowings under its revolving credit facility and/or proceeds from the
issuance of securities under the Company's shelf registration statement will be
adequate to fund its business operations, capital expenditures, continuing debt
obligations and the payment of dividends.
