              NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                        JUNE 30, 1998 AND 1997

                              (UNAUDITED)
                ($000's omitted, except share amounts)



     Readers of this quarterly report should refer to the Company's audited
financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1997, which are
incorporated by reference in the Company's 1997 annual report on Form 10-K,
as certain disclosures which would substantially duplicate those contained
in such audited financial statements have been omitted from this report.


(1)  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting solely of
normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the
consolidated financial statements have been included.  The results for the
interim periods ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 are not necessarily indicative
of the results to be obtained for the full fiscal year.

     The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of the Company, Urban Shopping Centers, L.P. (the "Operating
Partnership") and all controlled affiliates.  The effect of all significant
intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the
consolidated presentation.

     The equity method of accounting has been applied in the accompanying
consolidated financial statements with respect to the Company's interest in
Water Tower Joint Venture ("Water Tower Place"), Coral-CS/LTD Associates
("Coral Square Mall"), West Dade County Associates ("Miami International
Mall"), S. F. Shopping Centre Associates, L.P. ("San Francisco Shopping
Centre"), Copley Place Associates, LLC ("Copley Place"), Valencia Town
Center Associates, L.P. ("Valencia Town Center"), Citrus Park Venture and
Urban Retail Properties Co. (the "Management Company").

     For the three and six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, the common
units, preferred units, preferred stock, stock options and incentive units
are either antidilutive or do not have a significant effect on the
computation of earnings per share.

     Certain amounts in the 1997 financial statements have been
reclassified to conform with the 1998 presentation.

     Development costs, including interest and real estate taxes incurred
in connection with construction or expansion of certain investment
properties, are capitalized as a cost of the investment property and
depreciated over the estimated useful life of the related asset.  During
the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, the Company incurred interest
of $23,094 and $16,141, respectively, and capitalized interest of $1,628
and $1,090, respectively.

     Cash and cash equivalents (which aggregated $1,139 and $1,143 at
June 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997, respectively) include a treasury money
market fund which invests principally in U.S. Treasury notes and bills ($0
and $207 at June 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997, respectively).  Other
short-term investments (generally with original maturities of one year or
less) are generally held to maturity and aggregated $128 and $125 at
June 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997, respectively.  Cash equivalents and
other short-term investments are held at cost which approximates market.

(1)  Basis of Presentation (Continued)

     ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVES

     The Company uses interest rate swap agreements and treasury locks as
part of its interest rate risk management strategy.  These off-balance
sheet derivatives are classified as synthetic alterations.  The criteria
that must be satisfied by synthetic alteration accounting are as follows: 
(i) the liability to be converted has exposure to interest rate risk and
(ii) the derivative is designated and effective as a synthetic alteration
of the liability.

     Accrual accounting is applied for these derivatives treated as
synthetic alterations, and income and expense are recorded as adjustments
of interest expense.  Fees, if any, related to these off-balance sheet
investment products are amortized on the interest method over the life of
the derivative.  If the balance of the liability falls below that of the
derivative, the excess portion of the derivative is marked to market and
the resulting gain or loss included in income, as applicable.  If a
derivative is terminated independent of the underlying debt, the gain or
loss is deferred and amortized over the remaining life of the derivative.

     Derivatives that do not satisfy the criteria above would be carried at
market value with changes in market value to be recognized as current
income or expense.

PART I.  FINANCIAL INFORMATION

     ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION 
              AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     FINANCIAL CONDITION.  Net cash flows from operating activities
increased $4.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 1998 from the six
months ended June 30, 1997.  This increase was primarily attributable to an
increase in rental operations as discussed below.

     Net cash flows used in investing activities decreased $38.9 million in
the six months ended June 30, 1998 from the six months ended June 30, 1997.

This decrease was primarily attributable to (i) a decrease in additions to
investment properties at Wolfchase Galleria resulting from its completion
and opening on February 26, 1997, (ii) the purchase of a preferred 50%
interest in San Francisco Shopping Centre on June 17, 1998 and (iii) the
purchase of land in Roseville, California on June 24, 1997.  These
decreases were partially offset by (i) an increase in cash contributions to
Citrus Park Venture and (ii) an increase in cash distributions from San
Francisco Shopping Centre, Copley Place and Coral Square Mall.

     Net cash flows from financing activities decreased $41.4 million in
the six months ended June 30, 1998 from the six months ended June 30, 1997.

This decrease was primarily attributable to (i) an increase in the
dividends paid resulting from the issuance of additional shares of common
stock, unit voting common stock and preferred stock from the second quarter
of 1997 through the second quarter of 1998, (ii) an increase in the
distributions paid resulting from the issuance of common and preferred
units in connection with certain of the Company's 1997 acquisitions, (iii)
an increase in the quarterly distribution and dividend per unit and share,
respectively, beginning in the first quarter of 1998, (iv) a decrease in
the proceeds from shares of common stock issued during the first six months
of 1998 as compared to the first six months of 1997 and (v) a decrease in
the net fundings of the construction loan at Wolfchase Galleria due to the
repayment of the construction loan during the second quarter of 1997.

     At June 30, 1998, the Company had cash, cash equivalents and short-
term investments of approximately $1.3 million.  

     On June 5, 1998, the Company paid $10.9 million to common and
preferred shareholders as a dividend of $.5250 per share representing its
first quarter 1998 dividend.  On June 5, 1998, the Operating Partnership
paid $4.6 million to its limited partners as a distribution of $.5250 per
unit representing its first quarter 1998 distribution.

     CAPITALIZATION.  At June 30, 1998, the Company's debt (including the
Company's share of debt of unconsolidated partnerships and the Management
Company) totaled $962.4 million of which $927.0 million is fixed rate debt
and $35.4 million is floating rate debt.  On November 6, 1996, the Company
entered into an agreement with a lender for a one year $5.0 million
unsecured revolving line of credit, which on January 30, 1998, was amended
to increase the line to $7.5 million and extend the maturity to January 29,
1999.  As of June 30, 1998, $2.6 million was outstanding on this line of
credit.  As of June 30, 1998, $42.8 million was outstanding on the
Company's $90.0 million secured, revolving line of credit.  Subsequent to
the end of the second quarter of 1998, the Company executed a construction
loan commitment with a lender in the amount of $86.1 million to finance the
remaining construction costs at Citrus Park Town Center.  The loan was
initially funded on August 7, 1998 and matures in two years; however, it
may be extended for three one-year periods.  The current interest rate on
the loan is LIBOR + 1.20%.  During the second quarter of 1998, the Company
entered into an interest rate swap agreement with a maturity date of
December 1, 2005 for the MainPlace indebtedness thereby fixing the all-in
interest rate at 6.25% commencing May 1, 1998.  In addition, during the
second quarter, the Company entered into an $80.0 million ten-year treasury


<PAGE>


lock with an expiration date of September 14, 1999.  This treasury lock
will be used in connection with the permanent financing anticipated for
Citrus Park Town Center.  The transaction fixes the base rate for a ten-
year financing at 5.485%.  During the first quarter of 1998, the Company
entered into a seven year interest rate swap agreement on $10.0 million of
its floating rate indebtedness thereby fixing the base rate at 5.794%.

     Although there can be no assurances, the Company believes that
operating cash flows will be sufficient to service all Company debt and
anticipates repayment or refinancing when such amounts are due in the
ordinary course of its business.  At June 30, 1998, the Company's ratio of
Company debt to total market capitalization (which includes the market
value of issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company and
of partnership interests in the Operating Partnership not held by the
Company, plus Company debt) was approximately 50%, as illustrated by the
table at the end of liquidity and capital resources section.  The debt to
total market capitalization ratio is based upon the market value of the
common stock and indebtedness of the Company and, accordingly, will
fluctuate with changes in the value of the common stock (and the issuance
of additional shares of common stock, or other forms of capital, if any,
and the amount of outstanding indebtedness).

     On November 13, 1997, the Company issued $100.0 million in cumulative
convertible redeemable preferred stock ("Preferred Stock") with a
liquidation preference of $33.34 per share.  Quarterly dividends on the
Preferred Stock are equal to the greater of (i) $0.50 per share or (ii) the
quarterly dividend then payable on the shares of common stock into which
the Preferred Stock is convertible.  The Preferred Stock is convertible
into common stock, at the option of the holder, at a conversion price of
$33.34 per share (subject to antidilution adjustments) at anytime after
August 1998.  After six years the Preferred Stock may be redeemed, at the
option of the Company, for cash at a redemption price of $33.34 per share. 
The net proceeds of the issue, after deducting transaction costs, were used
to fund a portion of the November 14, 1997 acquisitions of Fox Valley
Center and Hawthorn Center.

     The Company believes that its cash generated from property operations
will provide the necessary funds on a short-term and long-term basis for
its operating expenses, interest expenses on outstanding indebtedness and
recurring capital expenditures and all dividends to the shareholders
necessary to satisfy the REIT requirements.  Sources of capital for future
acquisitions, development and non-recurring capital expenditures, such as
major building renovations and expansions, as well as for scheduled
principal payments, including balloon payments, on the outstanding
indebtedness are expected to be obtained from the following sources:  (i)
excess funds available for distribution, (ii) working capital reserves,
(iii) additional Company or property financing, (iv) proceeds from the sale
of assets, including outparcels and (v) additional equity raised in the
public or private markets (including the issuance of additional units
and/or unit voting common stock).  Accordingly, the Company expects that it
may incur additional indebtedness.  In light of current economic
conditions, relative costs of debt and equity capital, market values of
properties, growth and acquisition opportunities and other factors, the
Company may consider an increase or decrease in its ratio of Company debt
to total market capitalization accordingly.

     CAPITAL INVESTMENTS.  On November 14, 1997, the Company acquired Fox
Valley Center and Hawthorn Center.  The Company is in the process of
renovating Fox Valley Center at a cost of approximately $13.0 million. 
Work has begun on the renovation and it is expected to be completed in the
fourth quarter of 1998.  In addition, the Company entered into a put option
agreement with an unaffiliated third party for the purchase of a regional
mall.  The unaffiliated third party may exercise the put option from
October 1, 1998 through December 31, 1998 for a purchase price to the
Company of $115.0 million plus any capital expenditures incurred by the
third party.

     The Company's current development project is the approximate 1.1
million square foot Citrus Park Town Center ("Citrus Park") in Tampa,
Florida.  Anchor stores for the project are Burdines, Dillard's, JCPenney
and Sears.  Citrus Park is scheduled to open in March 1999.  In addition,
an approximate 350,000 square foot community center opposite the regional
mall, The Plaza at Citrus Park, is scheduled to open in May 1999. 
Currently this project is owned 50% by the Company and 50% by the
Management Company.  However, the Company has the right to acquire the
Management Company's economic interest in the project.  A bond offering of
$26.7 million to fund the roadwork surrounding the property was completed
by the Citrus Park Community Development District (the "CDD").  The
Operating Partnership assisted the CDD in obtaining the financing for the
roadwork by guaranteeing the irrevocable letter of credit which supports
the bonds.

     The Company's next planned development project is scheduled to be the
Galleria at Roseville in Roseville, California, which is near Sacramento. 
Current plans for Roseville to open in Fall 2000 are progressing on
schedule.  Groundbreaking for the center is scheduled for September 1998. 
Macy's, Nordstrom and Sears have already committed to be three of the
anchor stores for the approximate 1.1 million square foot mall. 
Negotiations are underway with one additional anchor.

     As of the date of this report, there are approximately twenty-five and
thirty acres, respectively, at Brandon Town Center and Wolfchase Galleria
available for future sale or development.

     RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 COMPARED TO THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 
JUNE 30, 1997

     Shopping center revenues increased $23.6 million to $93.9 million in
the six months ended June 30, 1998 from $70.3 million in the six months
ended June 30, 1997.  This increase was primarily a result of the Company's
acquisitions of Fox Valley Center and Hawthorn Center on November 14, 1997
and due to Wolfchase Galleria having been open for six months in 1998 as
compared to four months in 1997.

     Shopping center expenses, including depreciation and amortization,
increased $16.1 million to $55.5 million in the six months ended June 30,
1998 from $39.4 million in the same period for 1997.  This increase was
primarily a result of the Company's acquisitions of Fox Valley Center and
Hawthorn Center on November 14, 1997 and due to Wolfchase Galleria having
been open for six months in 1998 as compared to four months in 1997.

     Mortgage and other interest increased $6.4 million to $21.5 million in
the six months ended June 30, 1998 from $15.1 million in the same period
for 1997. This increase was primarily a result of the Company's
acquisitions of Fox Valley Center and Hawthorn Center on November 14, 1997
and due to Wolfchase Galleria having been open for six months in 1998 as
compared to four months in 1997.

     General and administrative expenses increased $.7 million to $2.4
million in the six months ended June 30, 1998 from $1.7 million in the same
period for 1997 as a result of additional compensation expense related to
the Company's incentive unit program.

     Income from unconsolidated partnerships increased $2.5 million to $4.7
million in the six months ended June 30, 1998 from $2.2 million in the same
period for 1997.  This increase was primarily attributable to the Company's
investment in a partnership resulting in a preferred 50% ownership interest
in San Francisco Shopping Centre on June 17, 1997 and the purchase of a
one-third equity interest in Copley Place on August 1, 1997.

     Income from the Management Company decreased $.9 million to a $1.3
million loss in the six months ended June 30, 1998 from a $.4 million loss
in the same period for 1997.  This decrease was primarily attributable to
an increase in compensation expense as a result of the incentive unit
program and an increase in depreciation expense as a result of the purchase
of computer hardware and software during 1997.

     Other gains of $.5 million and $1.8 million for the six months ended
June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively, represent the gains on the sale of
outparcels of land at Wolfchase Galleria.




<PAGE>


     The extraordinary items (net of minority interest) of $.3 million in
1997 resulted from the write-off of deferred expenses and loan fees related
to (i) repayment of debt at Water Tower Place and (ii) repayment of the
construction loan at Wolfchase Galleria.

     THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS 
ENDED JUNE 30, 1997

     Shopping center revenues increased $10.4 million to $47.4 million in
the three months ended June 30, 1998 from $37.0 million in the three months
ended June 30, 1997.  This increase was primarily a result of the Company's
acquisitions of Fox Valley Center and Hawthorn Center on November 14, 1997.

     Shopping center expenses, including depreciation and amortization,
increased $7.2 million to $27.6 million in the three months ended June 30,
1998 from $20.4 million in the same period for 1997.  This increase was
primarily a result of the Company acquisitions of Fox Valley Center and
Hawthorn Center on November 14, 1997.

     Mortgage and other interest increased $2.5 million to $10.6 million in
the three months ended June 30, 1998 from $8.1 million in the same period
for 1997. This increase was primarily a result of the Company's
acquisitions of Fox Valley Center and Hawthorn Center on November 14, 1997.

     General and administrative expenses increased $.3 million to $1.1
million in the three months ended June 30, 1998 from $.8 million in the
same period for 1997 as a result of additional compensation expense related
to the Company's incentive unit program.

     Income from unconsolidated partnerships increased $1.5 million to $2.8
million in the three months ended June 30, 1998 from $1.3 million in the
same period for 1997.  This increase was primarily attributable to the
Company's investment in a partnership resulting in a preferred 50%
ownership interest in San Francisco Shopping Center on June 17, 1997 and
the purchase of a one-third equity interest in Copley Place on August 1,
1997.

     Income from the Management Company decreased $.3 million to a $.5
million loss in the three months ended June 30, 1998 from a $.2 million
loss in the same period for 1997.  This decrease was primarily attributable
to an increase in deprecation expense as a result of the purchase of
computer hardware and software during 1997.

     Other gains of $.5 million and $1.8 million for the three months ended
June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively, represent the gains on the sale of
outparcels of land at Wolfchase Galleria.

     The extraordinary items (net of minority interest) of $.2 million in
1997 resulted from the write-off of deferred expenses and loan fees related
to the repayment of the construction loan at Wolfchase Galleria.

     EITF NO. 98-9 "ACCOUNTING FOR CONTINGENT RENT IN INTERIM FINANCIAL
PERIODS"

     On May 21, 1998, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) of the
Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) reached a consensus on
Issue 98-9 "Accounting for Contingent Rent in Interim Financial Periods." 
The Task Force determined that a lessor should defer recognition of
contingent rental income (i.e., percentage/excess rent) in interim periods
until the specified target (i.e., breakpoint) that triggers the contingent
rental income is achieved.  The Company implemented the consensus as of
May 21, 1998, and it did not have a material effect on the Company's net
income for the second quarter of 1998.  This consensus affects timing of
revenue recognition for interim financial periods and it is expected to
have an effect on net income for the third and fourth quarters of 1998;
however, it is not expected to have any effect on the Company's net income
for the full calendar year 1998.

     SFAS NO. 133 "ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING
ACTIVITIES

     Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" (Statement 133), was issued
by the FASB in June 1998.  The effective date of this statement for the
Company is January 1, 2000 and the Company does not anticipate earlier
implementation.  Statement 133 standardizes the accounting for derivative
instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other
contracts.  Under the standard, entities will be required to carry all
derivative instruments in the balance sheet at fair value.  The accounting
for changes in the fair value (i.e., gains or losses) of a derivative
instrument depends on whether it has been designated and qualifies as part
of a hedging relationship and, if so, on the reason for holding it.  The
Company uses interest rate swap agreements and treasury locks as part of
its interest rate risk management strategy.  These derivatives are used to
hedge cash flow exposure and under Statement 133 the effective portion of
the gain or loss on the derivative instrument will be reported initially as
a component of other comprehensive income (outside earnings) and
subsequently reclassified into earnings when the hedged transaction affects
earnings.  Any amounts excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness
as well as the ineffective portion of the gain or loss will be reported in
earnings immediately.

     The Company has not determined the impact that Statement 133 will have
on its financial statements and believes that such determination will not
be meaningful until closer to the date of initial adoption.

     Certain statements set forth herein contain forward-looking
statements, including, without limitation, statements relating to the
timing and anticipated capital expenditures of the Company's development
programs and acquisitions.  Although the Company believes that the
expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based on
reasonable assumptions, the actual results may differ materially from that
set forth in the forward-looking statements.  Certain factors that might
cause such differences include general economic conditions, local real
estate conditions, construction delays due to the unavailability of
construction materials, weather conditions or other delays beyond the
control of the Company.  Consequently, such forward-looking statements
should be regarded solely as reflections of the Company's current operating
and development and acquisition plans and estimates.  These plans and
estimates are subject to revision from time to time as additional
information becomes available, and actual results may differ from those
indicated in the referenced statements.
