                                  INTRODUCTION


General

         The accompanying form of proxy is solicited on behalf of the Board of
Trustees of Atlantic Realty Trust (the "Trust") for use at the 1997 Annual
Meeting of Shareholders of the Trust and at any adjournment or adjournments of
that meeting (the "Meeting") to be held at the offices of Battle Fowler LLP, 75
East 55th Street, New York, New York, in Conference Room 7A, on Monday, June 9,
1997 at 3:00 p.m. The Trust has first mailed these proxy materials to holders
(the "Shareholders") of shares of beneficial interest, $.01 par value (the
"Shares"), on or about April 30, 1997. The Trust's executive offices are located
at 747 Third Avenue, New York, New York 10017 (telephone: (212) 355-1255).
Shareholders of record at the close of business on April 28, 1997 (the "Record
Date") will be entitled to vote at the Meeting.

         Proxies in the accompanying form which are properly executed and duly
returned to the Trust and not revoked will be voted as specified and, if no
direction is made, will be voted for the election of each of management's
nominees for re-election as Trustees and in favor of proposals 2 and 3. Each
proxy granted is revocable by the person giving such proxy and may be revoked at
any time prior to its exercise by giving notice to the Trust of its revocation.
A Shareholder who attends the Meeting in person may, if he wishes, vote by
ballot at the Meeting, thereby cancelling any proxy previously given by such
Shareholder.

         As of April 28, 1997, approximately 3,561,553 Shares of the Trust were
outstanding, with each Share entitled to one vote on all matters that may come
before the Meeting.


                              ELECTION OF TRUSTEES

         At the Meeting, all of the Trustees are to be elected. It is intended
that votes will be cast pursuant to proxies received from Shareholders of the
Trust FOR the nominees listed hereinafter, all of whom are presently Trustees of
the Trust, unless contrary instructions are received.

         If for any reason any of the nominees becomes unavailable for election,
the proxies solicited will be voted for such substitute nominees as are selected
by management. Management has no reason to believe that any of the nominees is
not available or will not serve if elected. The election of

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934

      Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires
the Trust's officers, executive officers and Trustees and persons who own more
than ten percent of a registered class of the Trust's equity securities to file
reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "Commission"). Officers, Trustees and greater than ten percent
Shareholders are required by regulation of the Commission to furnish the Trust
with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

      Based solely on its review of the copies of such forms received by it, or
written representations from certain reporting persons that no Forms 5 were
required for those persons, the Trust believes that, during the fiscal year
ended December 31, 1996, all filing requirements applicable to its officers,
Trustees and greater than ten percent beneficial owners were complied with.

                         INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

      The firm of Deloitte & Touche LLP has been appointed as independent
auditors for the Trust by the Trust's Board of Trustees to examine and report on
financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 1997, which
appointment will be submitted to Shareholders for ratification at the Meeting.
Deloitte & Touche LLP audited and reported on the Trust's financial statements
for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1996. Representatives of that firm are
expected to be present at the Meeting, with the opportunity to make a statement
if they desire to do so, and to be available to respond to appropriate
questions. The affirmative vote of a majority of the Shares present and entitled
to vote at the Meeting is required to ratify appointment of the independent
auditors.

      Submission of the appointment of the auditors to the Shareholders for
ratification will not limit the authority of the Board of Trustees to appoint
another accounting firm to serve as independent auditors if the present auditors
resign or their engagement is otherwise terminated. If the Shareholders do not
ratify the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP at the Meeting, Management
intends to call a special meeting of Shareholders to be held as soon as
practicable after the Meeting to ratify the appointment of another independent
public accounting firm as independent auditors for the Trust.


               DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSION OF SHAREHOLDERS' PROPOSALS
                           FOR THE 1998 ANNUAL MEETING

      Any proposal by a Shareholder of the Trust intended to be presented at the
1998 annual meeting must be received by the Secretary of the Trust at the
Trust's principal executive office for inclusion in the Trust's proxy statement
and form of proxy relating to that meeting not later than April 10, 1998 for
inclusion in the Trust's proxy statement and form of proxy relating to that
meeting. Any such proposal must also comply with other requirements of the proxy
solicitation rules of the Commission.


                                VOTING PROCEDURES

      Trustees are elected by a plurality of the votes cast at the Annual
Meeting. Only Shares that are voted in favor of a particular nominee will be
counted toward such nominee's achievement of a plurality. Shares present at the
Meeting that are not voted for a particular nominee or Shares present by proxy
where the Shareholder properly withheld authority to vote for such nominee
(including broker non-votes) will not be counted toward such nominee's
achievement of a plurality.


                           ANNUAL REPORT ON FORM 10-K

      The Trust's Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 1996, which

                   OTHER BUSINESS AND EXPENSE OF SOLICITATION

      Management does not know of any other matters to be brought before the
Meeting except those set forth in the notice thereof. If other business is
