                                Overview

The Company


Simon DeBartolo Group, Inc. (the "Company" or "Simon") (NYSE:SPG)  is  a
self-administered   and  self-managed  real  estate   investment   trust
("REIT").  Simon DeBartolo Group, L.P. (the "Operating Partnership")  is
a  subsidiary  partnership  of the Company.  The  Company,  through  the
Operating Partnership, is engaged primarily in the ownership, operation,
management,  leasing,  acquisition, expansion and  development  of  real
estate  properties,  primarily  regional malls  and  community  shopping
centers.

At  June 30, 1998, the Company, through the Operating Partnership, owned
or  had an interest in 216 properties which consisted of regional malls,
community  shopping  centers,  and specialty  and  mixed-use  properties
containing  an  aggregate of 139 million square feet of  gross  leasable
area  (GLA)  in  34 states.  The Company, together with  its  affiliated
management companies, owned or managed approximately 154 million  square
feet of GLA in retail and mixed-use properties.

In February, Simon and Corporate Property Investors ("CPI"), a privately-
held  REIT, announced a plan to merge the two companies.  The merger  is
expected  to  be  completed in September and is subject  to  shareholder
approval and customary regulatory and other conditions.  The Company has
also announced the intent to change its corporate name to Simon Property
Group, Inc.,  effective upon completion of the merger.

This  package  was  prepared to provide (1) ownership  information,  (2)
certain  operational information, and (3)  debt information as  of  June
30, 1998, for the Company and the Operating Partnership.

Certain statements contained in this Supplemental Package may constitute

of  the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  Investors are
cautioned   that   forward-looking   statements   involve   risks    and
uncertainties which may affect the business and prospects of the Company
and  the  Operating  Partnership, including the risks and  uncertainties
discussed  in  other  periodic  filings made  by  the  Company  and  the
Operating Partnership with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Simon DeBartolo Group
Teleconference Call Text
August 11, 1998


Welcome and Opening Comments  (David Simon)
- -------------------------------------------

Good   afternoon   and   welcome   to  our   second   quarter   earnings
teleconference.   We  are  pleased to report another  solid  quarter  of
growth, highlighted by the following:

*     We increased FFO per share in the 2nd quarter by 11.9%.  Our year-
  to-date FFO growth was 13.2%, one of the highest rates in the regional
  mall sector.
*    We announced our expansion into Europe.
*     We  completed  the private placement of $1.075 billion  of  senior
  unsecured debt securities at a weighted average interest rate of 6.8%,
  which looks to be very well timed given the corporate spreads over the
  last month.
*     SBV, our strategic marketing division, formed alliances with  Visa
  U.S.A.  and  the NFL to promote "Kickoff 98" and DMX Inc.  to  deliver
  bundled music and communications services to Simon malls.
*     In  July, we announced that we will be changing our corporate name
  back to Simon Property Group.
*     All the fundamentals that have fueled our growth continue to be in
  place, and we are very excited about the prospects for the balance  of
  this year and into 1999.

The CPI Merger (David Simon)
- ----------------------------

We  have  been  working  diligently toward the  completion  of  the  CPI
transaction:

*     On  July  31, we closed on the sale of the GM Building  to  Donald
  Trump and Conseco, Inc. for net proceeds of $800 million.  This figure
  was slightly above our budgeted proceeds and we are very pleased to have
  completed the transaction.
*     The  private  placement  of our senior unsecured  debt  securities
  reduced our  $1.25 billion revolver to nearly $0.  This puts us  in  a
  terrific financial position to complete the CPI transaction.
*     We  expect the SEC to declare our registration statement effective
  within the next few days.
*     Proxy  materials  will  be  mailed  to  shareholders  a  few  days
  thereafter.
*     We  plan  to  conduct the shareholders' meeting and  complete  the
  merger before the end of September.

CPI's second quarter performance was strong with continued increases  in
occupancy  and  sales.   The  CPI portfolio  remains  on  track  for  an
anticipated 11% increase in EBITDA for 1998.
<PAGE>                              

We  continue to have some discussions with the analytic community  about
the  potential  stock  overhang  from  certain  CPI  shareholders.   Our
situation  is totally different than others in the marketplace.   We  do
not believe that this should be a concern for the following reasons:

1.    CPI  has  had  a  long-standing  stock  buy-back  program  whereby
  shareholders can sell their stock to the company or other shareholders
  if they so desire.
2.    CPI  shareholders will receive 50% of the merger consideration  in
  cash,  thereby liquifying their position substantially at the time  of
  closing.
3.    During  the  bidding  process, we inquired of  the  CPI  Board  of
  Directors whether the shareholders desired a higher component of  cash
  versus stock.  We were told that the shareholders wanted at least 50% in
  the form of stock - they want to remain invested in the sector and  in
  our company in particular.
4.    The three largest shareholders of CPI collectively own 65% of  the
  Company, all are represented on the CPI Board and all voted in favor of
  the  merger.    We expect that these three shareholders will  continue
  their  investment  in  Simon, and two of these  shareholders  will  be
  represented on the combined Simon post-merger Board.

Having  had significant discussions with CPI shareholders over the  past
several  months,  they are very much interested in  seeing  the  company
continue  to prosper and grow, and we expect them to be very  supportive
of our efforts as we go forward.

Upon completion of the merger, the Company will have a total market  cap
of  $17 billion and a portfolio containing 241 properties comprising 165
million  square feet of GLA, which includes nearly 25% of the  country's
best  malls.   The  Company's dominance in markets  such  as  New  York,
Atlanta,  Pittsburgh,  Indianapolis,  and  Southeast  Florida  and   its
presence  in major markets such as Boston, Los Angeles, Dallas, Orlando,
Chicago,  and Las Vegas-just to name a few-will provide an unprecedented
foundation upon which to continue the growth of our Company.  Given  the
strong  fundamentals that exist in our base business as well as what  is
going  on  within  the  CPI portfolio, we have no regret  regarding  our
decision to acquire CPI.  We look forward to the merger completion.  All
of  the financing has been lined up and there is no need for us to issue
additional  equity  to complete the CPI transaction or  to  execute  our
business  plan.   We  remain very bullish on the transaction,  which  we
believe  will  create  the dominant retail real estate  company  in  the
world.

Financial and Operational Results  (Steve Sterrett)
- ---------------------------------------------------

Our  financial  and operational results for the quarter and  six  months
ended June 30, 1998 are as follows:

For the quarter.
*    FFO on a per share basis increased 11.9% to $0.66 per share in 1998
  from $0.59 per share in 1997, under both the basic and diluted methods.
*    FFO of the Operating Partnership was $116.0 million, an increase of
  24.3% or $22.7 million over the same period in 1997.
*     Total  revenue  increased 26.6% to $310.4 million as  compared  to
  $245.1 million over the same period in 1997.

Results for the quarter do include the adoption of Emerging Issues  Task
Force  98-9,  as of May 22, 1998, regarding the recording of  percentage
rents.   The  impact  is  not material to our  results  for  the  second
quarter,  less  than a penny per share.  However, we do want  to  advise
that  we  expect  the impact on the third quarter to be approximately  3
cents  per share.  We expect 2 cents of this to be recovered during  the
fourth  quarter, resulting in a net impact of approximately 1  cent  per
share for 1998, which will be recovered in the first quarter of 1999.

For the six months.
*     Fully diluted FFO per share increased 13.2% to $1.29 per share  in
  1998 from $1.14 per share in 1997.
*    FFO of the Operating Partnership was $224.9 million, an increase of
  24.1% or $43.7 million over the same period in 1997.
*     Total revenue for the six months increased 25.3% to $610.6 million
  as compared to $487.5 million in 1997.

The  strength  and  overall health of our portfolio in  terms  of  sales
performance and increases in minimum rent and occupancy have contributed
to our growth in FFO:

*     Occupancy  at June 30, 1998, was 87.0%, an increase of  180  basis
  points over the same period in 1997.
*     Average  base rent in the regional mall portfolio was  $23.10  per
  square  foot  as compared to $20.94 one year ago, for an  increase  of
  10.3%.  The increase for "comparable properties", those that were owned
  over both of the reporting periods, was 7.2%, to $22.45 per square foot.
*     The  average initial base rent for new leases signed in  1998  was
  $24.97  per square foot, an increase of $5.45, or about 28%  over  the
  tenants who closed or whose leases expired.
<PAGE>                              
*     Total sales volume in the portfolio for the first half of the year
  was $4.2 billion at June 30, up 44.7% from $2.9 billion in 1997.
*     Total sales per square foot increased 8.5%, to $318.  The increase
  for "comparable properties," that is properties owned for at least one
  year, was 5.8%.
*    Comparable sales per square foot for tenants who have been in place
  for at least 24 months, increased 8.6%, to $328.

Same property NOI growth for the six months as compared to last year was
7.2%.

We are very pleased with the results for the first six months.  The year-
over-year  comparisons illustrate the positive impact of our acquisition
activity,  yet  the "comparable" portfolio statistics also  show  strong
increases in the existing portfolio.  Our ability to aggressively manage
our  existing portfolio provides the foundation upon which to  integrate
new assets.

Financing Activities  (Steve Sterrett)
- --------------------------------------

In  June, we completed the private placement of $1.075 billion of senior
unsecured  debt securities. The issue included three tranches of  senior
unsecured  notes  totaling  $875  million  and  $200  million  of  7.00%
Mandatory  Par  Put  Remarketed Securities  ("MOPPRS").   We  were  very
pleased  with the pricing on this debt offering, which was at a weighted
average  interest rate of 6.8%.  We were able to complete this  offering
in  a  very  choppy bond market.  This again demonstrates the  financial
strength of our company.

Earlier  in  June, we were removed from credit watch by both Standard  &
Poors  and  Moody's, and our senior unsecured ratings were  upgraded  to
BBB+ by Standard & Poors and reaffirmed at Baa1 by Moody's.  As you  may
have read, we opted not to renew our ratings contract with Fitch, as the
alignment  of S&P and Moody's ratings in strong BBB category  eliminated
the need, in our opinion, of a third agency's rating.

Development Activities  (Rick Sokolov)
- --------------------------------------

During  the second quarter, we opened the first phase of Lakeline  Plaza
in  Austin, Texas, a 239,000 square foot power center.  Phase II,  which
totals  128,000 square feet, will open in 1999.  This center complements
Lakeline Mall, which we opened in October 1995.
<PAGE>                              

We  are  looking forward to the opening of The Shops at Sunset Place,  a
510,000  square  foot specialty center located in South Miami,  Florida.
This  center  has  an  exciting  mixture of  restaurants,  entertainment
tenants  and  retailers that are making a real impact  on  our  industry
today.   The opening for this center is scheduled for December.  We  are
over 93% leased and committed on this $150 million project.

We currently have three additional projects under construction or in the
final stages of predevelopment as discussed in this morning's release:

*     Concord Mills is under construction in Concord (Charlotte),  North
  Carolina, through our joint venture agreement with the Mills.
*     Houston Premium Outlets in Houston, Texas, will start construction
  later this month for an opening approximately 13 months from now.  This
  project is a joint venture with Chelsea GCA.
*     And our third new development is The Shops at North East Plaza,  a
  320,000 square foot power center adjacent to our North East Mall, that
  will begin construction this fall for a fall 1999 opening.

We  continue  to  evaluate and work on new development opportunities  in
Orlando, Philadelphia, Dallas and metropolitan Washington DC.

We  have  three  significant redevelopments that will be completed  this
year:   Castleton  Square,  Prien Lake Mall and  Richmond  Town  Square.
These projects are detailed in today's press release.

In  addition, there are three other major redevelopments that will  open
after 1998.

*     The  Florida  Mall in Orlando will add a new 200,000  square  foot
  Burdines and 190,000 square feet of small shops.  JCPenney, Dillard's,
  and  Saks  will also expand.  Parisian has just acquired the  Gayfer's
  store there and will expand that location by 80,000 feet.  This project
  will be completed in November of 1999.
*    Mission Viejo Mall in Mission Viejo, California, will add Nordstrom
  and Saks, expand Macy's and Robinson-May, and add 150,000 square feet of
  small shops.  This redevelopment has a targeted completion of September
  1999,  whereby we intend to capture new significant market  share  and
  reposition Mission Viejo as an upscale shopping destination.
*    North East Mall in Hurst, Texas, will complete its redevelopment in
  the year 2000.  This complete mall renovation includes the addition of
  Nordstrom and Saks; a reconfigured and new Dillard's; the expansion of
  JCPenney; and the addition of small shop GLA with a new food court.
<PAGE>                              

Our redevelopment program is continuing in full force with more than  18
projects  currently under construction, (in addition to the  significant
projects  discussed above), including 10 mall remodels and the  addition
of  over  18  anchors in our portfolio in 1998.  Simon's investment,  or
share of costs, for these projects is approximately $139 million.

Acquisition/Disposition Activity (Rick Sokolov)
- -----------------------------------------------

Subsequent  to  the  first quarter, we acquired an additional  ownership
interest  in Lakeline Mall and Lakeline Plaza in Austin, Texas,  and  we
now own 80% of each of these assets.

Effective  May 5th, we acquired the remaining 50.1% interest in  Rolling
Oaks  Mall in San Antonio, Texas, for SDG Common Stock.  We now own 100%
of  this  759,000  square foot mall anchored by Dillard's,  Foley's  and
Sears.

As  part of our program to identify and dispose of assets which  do  not
fit  the  Company's long-term strategic criteria, we sold two assets  in
June for an aggregate of $37 million:  The Promenade located in Woodland
Hills, California and Southtown Mall in Ft. Wayne, Indiana.

We  are  continuing  with our plans to dispose of our  remaining  office
assets  and a selected number of non-core regional mall assets  that  do
not fit our growth profile going forward.

International Expansion  (David Simon)
- --------------------------------------

In  June, we were very excited to announce our intention to expand  into
continental Europe.  In an agreement with Harvard Private Capital  Group
and  Argo  II,  an investment fund established by J.P.  Morgan  and  The
O'Connor  Group,  we  collectively committed to acquire  an  initial  44
percent  ownership  position in Groupe BEG,  S.A.,  a  fully  integrated
retail real estate developer, lessor and manager headquartered in Paris,
France.  We will be able to parlay BEG's existing business relationships
and  in-depth  market knowledge into our overseas ventures,  which  will
include  the development, ownership and management of retail  properties
in  key  European  markets; currently targeting significant  efforts  in
Poland.    In   addition,  Simon's  entry  into  Europe   enhances   our
opportunities   to  provide  U.S.-based  retailers  with   international
locations.   We  are  very  excited about the  opportunities  that  this
combination presents to us in the future.

Company Name Change (David Simon)
- ---------------------------------

Recently,  we  announced that our name will be changing  back  to  Simon
Property Group, effective with the closing of the CPI merger.  This name
change is appropriate for several reasons:
1.    The combination of the Simon and DeBartolo names created confusion
  in the business community-there was no clear company identity-and given
  that our ticker symbol maintained at "SPG", we felt it was in the best
  interest of our company to go back to Simon Property Group.
2.    We  have  been evaluating extensively the roll out of a "branding"
  strategy  for Simon Property Group, and our market research  indicated
  that both shoppers and tenants, our two major constituencies, will more
  clearly identify with a simple brand name such as "Simon".
3.   Our recent acquisition activity, i.e. RPT and CPI, have signaled to
  the  market a new strategic direction for the Company and I think  the
  name change clearly reinforces that transformation of our company.

Conclusion  (David Simon)
- -------------------------

*    We are very pleased with our year-to-date results.
*     Business fundamentals are very strong-we have seen terrific trends
  in occupancy, sales and rental growth.
*    We look forward to the remainder of 1998.
*     We  believe the CPI transaction is a terrific opportunity for  our
  company.
