ITEM 1. SECURITY AND ISSUER.
This Amendment relates to common shares of beneficial interest, $1.00
par value per share (the "Common Shares"), of Archstone Communities Trust, a
Maryland real estate investment trust (the "Company"), the principal executive
offices of which are at 7670 South Chester Street, Englewood, Colorado 80112.
The Company was formerly known as Security Capital Pacific Trust.
ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.
Except as described below, there are no other changes to report from
the responses previously provided in response to this Item requirement.
On November 8, 2000, Security Capital caused the Company to file a
registration statement on Form S-3 to register with the Securities and Exchange
Commission ("SEC") all 35,471,214 Common Shares of the Company owned by Security
Capital. The registration statement was declared effective by the SEC on
November 22, 2000.
On November 30, 2000, Security Capital agreed to sell to an institutional
investor 3,750,000 Common Shares at a price of $23.125 per share, pursuant to
the registration statement. The sale was a privately negotiated transaction
between Security Capital and the purchaser. No commissions were paid in
connection with the transaction. The transaction settled on December 5, 2000.
Security Capital currently owns 31,721,214 Common Shares, or 25.933% of the
outstanding Common Shares.
Security Capital intends to maintain its position as the principal
shareholder of the Company and intends to continue to play a major role in the
direction of the Company for the purpose of maximizing the value of the Company

Except as set forth in this Item 4, Security Capital presently has no
plans or proposals which relate to or would result in any of the actions set
forth in parts (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. Security Capital may
