1. THE COMPANY

Acadia Realty Trust (the “Trust”) and subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) is a fully-integrated, self-managed and self-administered equity real estate investment trust (“REIT”) focused primarily on the ownership, acquisition, redevelopment and management of retail properties, including neighborhood and community shopping centers and mixed-use properties with retail components.

All of the Company’s assets are held by, and all of its operations are conducted through, Acadia Realty Limited Partnership (the “Operating Partnership”) and entities in which the Operating Partnership owns a controlling interest. As of March 31, 2010, the Trust controlled 99% of the Operating Partnership as the sole general partner. As the general partner, the Trust is entitled to share, in proportion to its percentage interest, in the cash distributions and profits and losses of the Operating Partnership. The limited partners primarily represent entities or individuals who contributed their interests in certain properties or entities to the Operating Partnership in exchange for common or preferred units of limited partnership interest (“Common or Preferred OP Units”). Limited partners holding Common OP Units are generally entitled to exchange their units on a one-for-one basis for common shares of beneficial interest of the Trust (“Common Shares”). This structure is commonly referred to as an umbrella partnership REIT or “UPREIT.”

During 2001, the Company formed a partnership, Acadia Strategic Opportunity Fund, LP (“Fund I”), and in 2004 formed a limited liability company, Acadia Mervyn Investors I, LLC (“Mervyns I”), with four institutional investors. The Operating Partnership committed a total of $20.0 million to Fund I and Mervyns I, and the four institutional shareholders committed $70.0 million, for the purpose of acquiring real estate investments. As of March 31, 2010, Fund I was fully invested, with the Operating Partnership having contributed $16.5 million to Fund I and $2.7 million to Mervyns I.

The Operating Partnership is the sole general partner of Fund I and sole managing member of Mervyns I, with a 22.2% equity interest in both Fund I and Mervyns I and is also entitled to a profit participation in excess of its equity interest percentage based on certain investment return thresholds (“Promote”). Cash flow is distributed pro-rata to the partners and members (including the Operating Partnership) until they receive a 9% cumulative return (“Preferred Return”), and the return of all capital contributions. Thereafter, remaining cash flow (which is net of distributions and fees to the Operating Partnership for property management, asset management, leasing, construction and legal services) is distributed 20% to the Operating Partnership as a Promote and 80% to the partners (including the Operating Partnership). As all contributed capital and accumulated preferred return has been distributed to investors, the Operating Partnership is now entitled to a Promote on all earnings and distributions.

During 2004, the Company, along with the investors from Fund I as well as two additional institutional investors, formed Acadia Strategic Opportunity Fund II, LLC (“Fund II”), and Acadia Mervyn Investors II, LLC (“Mervyns II”) with $300.0 million, in the aggregate, of committed discretionary capital. The Operating Partnership’s share of committed capital is $60.0 million. The Operating Partnership is the managing member with a 20% interest in both Fund II and Mervyns II. The terms and structure of Fund II and Mervyns II are substantially the same as Fund I and Mervyns I, including the Promote structure, with the exception that the Preferred Return is 8%. As of March 31, 2010, the Operating Partnership had contributed $40.0 million to Fund II and $7.6 million to Mervyns II.

During 2007, the Company formed Acadia Strategic Opportunity Fund III LLC (“Fund III”) with 14 institutional investors, including all of the investors from Fund I and a majority of the investors from Fund II with $502.5 million of committed discretionary capital. The Operating Partnership’s share of the committed capital is $100.0 million and it is the managing member with a 19.9% interest in Fund III. The terms and structure of Fund III are substantially the same as the previous Funds, including the Promote structure, with the exception that the Preferred Return is 6%. As of March 31, 2010, the Operating Partnership had contributed $19.2 million to Fund III.

Fund I, Fund II, Fund III, Mervyns I and Mervyns II are collectively referred to herein as the “Opportunity Funds.”

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The consolidated financial statements include the consolidated accounts of the Company and its investments in partnerships and limited liability companies in which the Company is presumed to have control in accordance with Financial Accounting Statements Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810 “Consolidation” (“ASC Topic 810”). Investments in entities for which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence over, but does not have financial or operating control, are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Accordingly, the Company’s share of the net earnings (or loss) of these entities are included in consolidated net income under the caption, Equity in Earnings (Losses) of Unconsolidated Affiliates.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The information furnished in the accompanying consolidated financial statements reflects all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the aforementioned consolidated financial statements for the interim periods.

Although the Company accounts for its investment in Albertson’s, which it has made through the Retailer Controlled Property Venture (“RCP Venture”) (Note 7), using the equity method of accounting, the Company adopted the policy of not recording its equity in earnings or losses of the unconsolidated affiliate until the Company receives the audited financial statements of Albertson’s to support the equity in earnings or losses in accordance with ASC Topic 323 “Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures.”

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2010. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

On January 1, 2010, the Company adopted new accounting requirements relating to variable interest entities. These new accounting requirements amend the existing accounting guidance: (i) to require an enterprise to perform an analysis to determine whether the enterprise’s variable interest or interests give it a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity, identifying the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity; (ii) to require ongoing reassessment of whether an enterprise is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity, rather than only when specific events occur; (iii) to eliminate the quantitative approach previously required for determining the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity; (iv) to amend certain guidance for determining whether an entity is a variable interest entity; (v) to add an additional reconsideration event when changes in facts and circumstances pertinent to a variable interest entity occur; (vi) to eliminate the exception for troubled debt restructuring regarding variable interest entity reconsideration; and (vii) to require advanced disclosures that will provide users of financial statements with more transparent information about an enterprise’s involvement in a variable interest entity. The adoption of these new accounting requirements did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2010-06 “Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements” (“ASU No. 2010-06”). The provisions of ASU No. 2010-06 amended Subtopic 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures – Overall,” by requiring an entity to: (i) disclose separately the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and describe the reasons for the transfers and (ii) present separate information for Level 3 activity pertaining to gross purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements. ASU 2010-06 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the gross basis reconciliation for the Level 3 fair value measurements, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations, as it does not have any transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements.

In February 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-09 “Subsequent Events (ASC Topic 855) Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements” (“ASU No. 2010-09”). ASU No. 2010-09 requires an entity that is an SEC filer to evaluate subsequent events through the date that the financial statements are issued and removes the requirement for an SEC filer to disclose a date, in both issued and revised financial statements, through which the filer had evaluated subsequent events. The adoption did not have an impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

3. EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE

Basic earnings per share was determined by dividing the applicable net income attributable to Common Shareholders for the period by the weighted average number of Common Shares outstanding during each period consistent with ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share.” Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue Common Shares were exercised or converted into Common Shares or resulted in the issuance of Common Shares that then shared in the earnings of the Company.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations for the periods indicated:

	Three months ended March 31,
(dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)	2010		2009
Numerator:
Income from continuing operations attributable to Common Shareholders	$	5,130	$	9,352
Effect of dilutive securities:
Preferred OP Unit distributions	─			5
Numerator for diluted earnings per Common Share	$	5,130	$	9,357

Denominator:
Weighted average shares for basic earnings per share		39,981		33,474
Effect of dilutive securities:
Employee share options		169		122
Convertible Preferred OP Units	─			25
Dilutive potential Common Shares		169		147
Denominator for diluted earnings per share		40,150		33,621
Basic earnings per Common Share from continuing operations attributable to Common Shareholders	$	0.13	$	0.28
Diluted earnings per Common Share from continuing operations attributable to Common Shareholders	$	0.13	$	0.28

The weighted average shares used in the computation of diluted earnings per share include unvested restricted Common Shares (“Restricted Shares”) and restricted OP units (“LTIP Units”) (Note 15) that are entitled to receive dividend equivalent payments. The effect of the conversion of Common OP Units is not reflected in the above table, as they are exchangeable for Common Shares on a one-for-one basis. The income allocable to such units is allocated on this same basis and reflected as noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. As such, the assumed conversion of these units would have no net impact on the determination of diluted earnings per share. The conversion of the convertible notes payable (Note 11) is not reflected in the table above as such conversion based on the current market price of the Common Shares would be settled with cash. The effect of the assumed conversion of 188 Series A Preferred OP Units into 25,067 Common Shares would be dilutive for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as reflected above. These would be anti-dilutive for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and, accordingly, are not included in computing diluted earnings per Common Share for the period.

For the three months ended March 31, 2010, 57,476 employee Restricted Shares were cancelled to pay the employees’ income taxes due on the value of the portion of the Restricted Shares that vested during the period. During the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company recognized accrued Common Share and Common OP Unit-based compensation totaling $1.0 million.

6. DISPOSITION OF PROPERTIES AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

In accordance with ASC Subtopic 205-20 “Presentation of Financial Statements, Discontinued Operations,” the Company reclassified the consolidated statements of income and the consolidated balance sheets relating to the properties that were sold or became held for sale, as a discontinued operation, for all periods presented.

A. Investments In and Advances to Unconsolidated Affiliates

Retailer Controlled Property Venture (“RCP Venture”)

During January of 2004, the Company commenced the RCP Venture with Klaff Realty, LP (“Klaff”) and Lubert-Adler Management, Inc., through a limited liability company (“KLA”), for the purpose of making investments in surplus or underutilized properties owned by retailers. As of March 31, 2010, the Company had invested $60.8 million through the RCP Venture on a non-recourse basis. Cash flow from any investment in which the RCP Venture participants elect to invest, is to be distributed to the participants until they have received a 10% cumulative return and a full return of all contributions. Thereafter, remaining cash flow is to be distributed 20% to Klaff and 80% to the partners (including Klaff).

Mervyns Department Stores

During September 2004, the Company made its first RCP Venture investment. Through Mervyns I and Mervyns II, the Company invested $23.2 million in a consortium to acquire the Mervyns Department Store chain (“Mervyns”) consisting of 262 stores (“REALCO”) and its retail operation (“OPCO”) from Target Corporation. To date, REALCO has disposed of a significant portion of the portfolio. In addition, in November 2007, the Company sold its interest in OPCO and, as a result, has no further investment in OPCO. Subsequent to the initial acquisition, the Company, through Mervyns I and Mervyns II, made additional investments of $2.9 million.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2009, REALCO recorded an impairment charge on its investment in certain locations and leasehold interests of which Mervyns I and II recognized a combined loss of $3.1 million. The Operating Partnership’s share of this loss, net of taxes, was $0.6 million.

Through March 31, 2010, the Company, through Mervyns I and Mervyns II, made additional investments in locations that are separate from the original investment (“Add-On Investments”) in Mervyns totaling $5.1 million.

Albertson’s

During June of 2006, the RCP Venture made its second investment as part of an investment consortium, acquiring Albertson’s and Cub Foods, of which the Mervyns II share was $20.7 million. Through March 31, 2010, Mervyns II has received distributions from this investment totaling $65.8 million.

Through March 31, 2010, the Company, through Mervyns II, made Add-On Investments in Albertson’s totaling $2.4 million and received distributions totaling $1.2 million.

Other RCP Investments

During 2006, Fund II made investments of $1.1 million in Shopko and $0.7 million in Marsh. During 2007, Fund II received a $1.1 million cash distribution from the Shopko investment representing 100% of its invested capital. As of March 31, 2010, Fund II made investments of $2.0 million in additional Add-On Investments in Marsh and has received distributions totaling $2.6 million.

During July of 2007, the RCP Venture acquired a portfolio of 87 retail properties from Rex Stores Corporation, in which the Company invested in through Mervyns II. Mervyns II’s share of this investment was $2.7 million. Through March 31, 2010, Mervyns II has received distributions of $0.4 million.

The Company accounts for the original investments in Mervyns and Albertson’s using the equity method of accounting as the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence over, but does not have financial or operating control. The Company accounts for the Add-On Investments and other RCP Venture investments using the cost method due to its minor ownership interest and the inability to exert influence over KLA’s operating and financial policies.

Brandywine Portfolio

The Company owns a 22.2% interest in a one million square foot retail portfolio located in Wilmington, Delaware (the “Brandywine Portfolio”) that is accounted for using the equity method.

Crossroads

The Company owns a 49% interest in the Crossroads Joint Venture and Crossroads II (collectively, “Crossroads”), which collectively own a 311,000 square foot shopping center located in White Plains, New York that is accounted for using the equity method.

Other Investments

Fund I Investments

Fund I owned a 50% interest in the Sterling Heights Shopping Center, which was accounted for using the equity method of accounting.

On March 25, 2010, Fund I sold the Sterling Heights Shopping Center for $2.3 million. The proceeds from this sale together with the balance of Fund I’s recourse obligation of $0.6 million were used to fully liquidate the outstanding mortgage loan obligation.

Fund II Investments

Fund II has a 25% interest in CityPoint, a redevelopment project located in downtown Brooklyn, NY, which is accounted for using the equity method. The Company has determined that CityPoint is a variable interest entity, and the Company is not the primary beneficiary. The Company’s maximum exposure is its current investment balance of $37.5 million.

The redevelopment plans include the development of a 1.3 million square foot project consisting of commercial and residential components. The Company will participate in the development of the commercial component and does not plan on participating in the development of, nor does it have any ownership interest in, the residential component of the project. As of December 31, 2009, it was determined that the residential component of the project was impaired. Consequently, CityPoint wrote down the residential portion of the project to its fair value and recorded a $66.0 million impairment charge. The impairment charge was allocated 100% to the unaffiliated joint venture partner. The Company has not recognized any share of this impairment charge as it has no ownership interest in the residential component.

The line of credit’s maximum capacity was reduced to $40.0 million and will decrease to $30.0 million in September 2010.

iii) on February 9, 2010, the Company paid off the outstanding Ledgewood line of credit balance of $2.0 million, which was scheduled to mature on March 29, 2010 and terminated the line of credit.

The following table sets forth certain information pertaining to the Company’s secured credit facilities:

In June 2009, the servicer of two of the Company’s loans alleged that non-monetary defaults had occurred on construction loans for $31.7 million and $11.5 million collateralized by the Pelham Manor Shopping Center and Atlantic Avenue, respectively. The servicer contends that the Company did not substantially complete the improvements in accordance with the required completion dates as defined in the loan agreements and, accordingly, did not meet the requirements for the final draws. The Company does not believe the loans are in default and will vigorously defend its position and is currently in discussions with the servicer to resolve these issues. The Company believes that the ultimate resolution of this matter will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

On April 1, 2010, a $30.0 million loan, collateralized by a Fund II property located on 161st Street in the Bronx, NY, matured. The Company gave notice of the exercise of its one year extension option and agreed to pay down $0.4 million in order to comply with its debt service coverage requirement to extend. The lender disputed and refused to grant the extension request and has issued a Notice of Event of Default and Demand for Payment with which the Company disagrees. As a result, the lender is contending that interest at the default rate, which at March 31, 2010, amounts to 6.65%, is payable with which the Company also disagrees. The Company is in negotiations with the special servicer of the loan to amend the loan terms and extend the maturity. The Company believes that it will be able to successfully negotiate the extension and the ultimate resolution of this matter will not have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or the results of operations.

11. CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE

In December 2006 and January 2007, the Company issued $115.0 million of convertible notes with a fixed interest rate of 3.75% due 2026 (the “Convertible Notes”). The Convertible Notes were issued at par and require interest payments semi-annually in arrears on June 15th and December 15th of each year. The Convertible Notes are unsecured obligations and rank equally with all other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness.

During 2009 and 2008, the Company purchased $57.0 million and $8.0 million in face amount, respectively, of its convertible debt at an average discount of approximately 19%. The transactions resulted in a gain on debt extinguishment of $7.1 million and $1.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The outstanding Convertible Notes face amount as of March 31, 2010 was $50.0 million.

12. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants.

ASC Topic 820’s valuation techniques are based on observable or unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s market assumptions. These two types of inputs have created the following fair value hierarchy:

·	Level 1 - Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets

·	Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which significant value drivers are observable

·	Level 3 - Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which significant value drivers are unobservable

The following describes the valuation methodologies the Company uses to measure financial assets and liabilities at fair value:

Derivative Instruments — The Company’s derivative financial liabilities consist of interest rate swaps and are predominately valued using Level 2 inputs. The fair value of these instruments is based upon the estimated amounts the Company would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the reporting date and is determined using interest rate market pricing models.

The following table presents the Company’s liabilities measured at fair value based on level of inputs at March 31, 2010:

(dollars in thousands)	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Liabilities
Derivatives	$	-	$	3,422	$	-
Total liabilities measured at fair value	$	-	$	3,422	$	-

Financial Instruments

ASC Topic 825 “Financial Instruments” requires disclosure on the fair value of financial instruments.

Certain of the Company’s assets and liabilities are considered financial instruments. Fair value estimates, methods and assumptions are set forth below.

Cash and Cash Equivalents, Restricted Cash, Cash in Escrow, Rents Receivable, Prepaid Expenses, Other Assets, Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses, Dividends and Distributions Payable and Other Liabilities—The carrying amount of these assets and liabilities approximates fair value as of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 due to the short-term nature of such accounts.

Notes Receivable and Preferred Equity Investments — As of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the Company has determined the estimated fair values of its preferred equity investments and notes receivable were $133.3 million and $126.4 million, respectively, by discounting future cash receipts utilizing a discount rate equivalent to the rate at which similar investments would be originated at the reporting date.

Derivative Instruments — The fair value of these instruments is based upon the estimated amounts the Company would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the reporting date and is determined using interest rate market pricing models.

Mortgage Notes Payable and Convertible Notes Payable — As of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the Company has determined the estimated fair values of its mortgage notes payable were $741.3 million and $751.0 million, respectively, by discounting future cash payments utilizing a discount rate equivalent to the rate at which similar mortgage notes payable would be originated at the reporting date.

13. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

During February 2010, Klaff converted all 250,000 of its Restricted Common OP Units into 250,000 Common Shares.

The Company earns asset management, leasing, disposition, development and construction fees for providing services to an existing portfolio of retail properties and/or leasehold interests in which Klaff has an interest. Fees earned by the Company in connection with this portfolio were $0.03 million and $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

The Company earned property management fees, legal and leasing fees from the Brandywine portfolio totaling $0.2 million for each of the three months ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009.

Lee Wielansky, the Lead Trustee of the Company, was paid a consulting fee of $25,000 for each of the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009.

14. SEGMENT REPORTING

The Company has five reportable segments: Core Portfolio, Opportunity Funds, Self-Storage Portfolio, Notes Receivable and Other. “Notes Receivable” consists of the Company’s notes receivable and preferred equity investment and related interest income. “Other” consists primarily of management fees and interest income. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The Company evaluates property performance primarily based on net operating income before depreciation, amortization and certain nonrecurring items. Investments in the Core Portfolio are typically held long-term. Given the contemplated finite life of the Opportunity Funds, these investments are typically held for shorter terms. Fees earned by the Company as the general partner/member of the Opportunity Funds are eliminated in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The following table sets forth certain segment information for the Company, reclassified for discontinued operations, as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 (does not include unconsolidated affiliates):

15. LONG-TERM INCENTIVE COMPENSATION

On March 1, 2010, the Company issued 257,116 LTIP Units to officers of the Company. Vesting with respect to these awards is recognized ratably over the next five annual anniversaries of the issuance date. The vesting on 46% of these awards is also generally subject to achieving certain total shareholder returns on the Company’s Common Shares or certain Company performance measures.

Also on March 1, 2010 and March 10, 2010, the Company issued a total of 16,473 Restricted Shares and 9,812 LTIP Units, respectively, to employees of the Company. Vesting with respect to these awards is recognized ratably over the next five annual anniversaries of the issuance date. The vesting on 31% of these awards is also generally subject to achieving certain total shareholder returns on the Company’s Common Shares or certain Company performance measures.

The total value of the above Restricted Shares and LTIP Units as of the grant date was $4.7 million. Compensation expense of $0.3 million has been recognized in the accompanying financial statements related to these awards for the three months ended March 31, 2010.

In 2009, the Company adopted the Long Term Investment Alignment Program (the “Program”) pursuant to which the Company may award units to primarily senior executives which would entitle them to receive up to 25% of any future Fund III Promote when and if such Promote is ultimately realized. As of March 31, 2010, the Company has awarded units representing 61% of the Program, which were determined to have no value at issuance. In accordance with ASC Topic 718, “Compensation- Stock Compensation,” compensation relating to these awards will be recorded based on the change in the estimated fair value at each reporting period.

Total long-term incentive compensation expense, including the expense related to the Program, was $1.0 million and $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

The following discussion is based on the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of March 31, 2010 and 2009 and for the three months then ended. This information should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes thereto.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements contained in this report constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such factors are set forth under the heading “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 (our “2009 Form 10-K”) and include, among others, the following: general economic and business conditions, including the current post-recessionary period, which will, among other things, affect demand for rental space, the availability and creditworthiness of prospective tenants, lease rents and the availability of financing; adverse changes in our real estate markets, including, among other things, competition with other companies; risks of real estate development, acquisition and investment; risks related to our use of leverage; demands placed on our resources due to the growth of our business; risks related to operating through a partnership structure; our limited control over joint venture investments; the risk of loss of key members of management; uninsured losses; REIT distribution requirements and ownership limitations; concentration of ownership by certain institutional investors; governmental actions and initiatives; and environmental/safety requirements. Except as required by law, we do not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-Q.

OVERVIEW

As of March 31, 2010, we operated 78 properties, which we own or have an ownership interest in, within our Core Portfolio or within our three Opportunity Funds. These 78 properties consist of commercial properties, primarily neighborhood and community shopping centers, self-storage and mixed-use properties with a retail component. The properties we operate are located primarily in the Northeast, Mid-Atlantic and Midwestern regions of the United States. Our Core Portfolio consists of those properties either 100% owned, or partially owned through joint venture interests, by the Operating Partnership, or subsidiaries thereof, not including those properties owned through our Opportunity Funds. Excluding two properties under redevelopment, there are 32 properties in our Core Portfolio totaling approximately 4.8 million square feet. Fund I has 20 properties comprising approximately 0.9 million square feet. Fund II has 10 properties, seven of which (representing 1.2 million square feet) are currently operating, one is under construction, and two are in design phase. Three of the properties also include self-storage facilities. We expect the Fund II portfolio will have approximately 2.0 million square feet upon completion of all current construction and anticipated redevelopment activities. Fund III has 14 properties totaling approximately 1.8 million square feet, of which 11 locations representing 0.9 million net rentable square feet are self-storage facilities. The majority of our operating income is derived from rental revenues from these 78 properties, including recoveries from tenants, offset by operating and overhead expenses. As our RCP Venture invests in operating companies, we consider these investments to be private-equity style, as opposed to real estate, investments. Since these are not traditional investments in operating rental real estate but investments in operating businesses, the Operating Partnership invests in these through a taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”).

Our primary business objective is to acquire and manage commercial retail properties that will provide cash for distributions to shareholders while also creating the potential for capital appreciation to enhance investor returns. We focus on the following fundamentals to achieve this objective:

–	Own and operate a Core Portfolio of community and neighborhood shopping centers and main street retail located in markets with strong demographics and generate internal growth within the Core Portfolio through aggressive redevelopment, re-anchoring and/or leasing activities

–	Maintain a strong and flexible balance sheet through conservative financial practices while ensuring access to sufficient capital to fund future growth

–

Generate external growth through an opportunistic yet disciplined acquisition program. We target transactions with high inherent opportunity for the creation of additional value through redevelopment and leasing and/or transactions requiring creative capital structuring to facilitate the transactions. These transactions may include other types of commercial real estate besides those which we invest in through our Core Portfolio. These may also include joint ventures with private equity investors for the purpose of making investments in operating retailers with significant embedded value in their real estate assets

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe there have been no material changes to the items that we disclosed as our critical accounting policies under Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” in our 2009 Form 10-K.

(1)

Includes fees earned by the Company as general partner/managing member of the Opportunity Funds that are eliminated in consolidation. These fees are adjusted in noncontrolling interests. The net balance reflected in the table represents third party fees that are not eliminated in consolidation. Reference is made to Note 14 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Part 1, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for an overview of our five reportable segments.

The decrease in minimum rents in the Core Portfolio primarily relates to tenant vacancies at Third Avenue and the Circuit City bankruptcy at Ledgewood Mall. The increase in minimum rents in the Opportunity Funds primarily relates to additional rents following the acquisition of Cortlandt Towne Center (“2009 Fund Acquisition”) of $0.6 million and additional leases at Fordham Place and Pelham Manor commencing in 2009 (“Fordham and Pelham”) of $2.0 million. The increase in minimum rents in the Storage Portfolio relates to the full amortization of acquired lease intangible costs during 2009.

Expense reimbursements in the Opportunity Funds increased for both real estate taxes and common area maintenance as a result of the 2009 Fund Acquisition and Fordham and Pelham.

Other income of $1.7 million in the Core Portfolio during 2009 was the result of a forfeited sales contract deposit.

Total operating expenses	$	14.9	$	13.2	$	4.1	$	(4.4	)	$	16.6	$	10.5	$	3.5	$	(4.9	)

The increase in property operating expenses in the Opportunity Funds was primarily the result of the 2009 Fund Acquisition as well as Fordham and Pelham.

The increase in real estate taxes in the Opportunity Funds was attributable to the 2009 Fund Acquisition as well as Fordham and Pelham.

The decrease in general and administrative expense in the Core Portfolio was primarily attributable to reduced compensation expense following staff reductions in the first quarter of 2009. The decrease in general and administrative expense in the Opportunity Funds primarily relates to the reduction in Promote expense attributable to Fund I. The increase in general and administrative expense in Notes Receivable and Other primarily relates to the elimination of the Fund I Promote expense for consolidated financial statement presentation purposes.

Depreciation expense increased $1.5 million and amortization expense increased $0.4 million in the Opportunity Funds as a result of the 2009 Fund Acquisition as well as Fordham and Pelham.

Loss (income) attributable to noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries - Discontinued operations		—			—			—			—		—			—			—			(4.9	)

Equity in earnings (losses) of unconsolidated affiliates in the Opportunity Funds increased primarily as a result of our pro-rata share of losses from Mervyns in 2009.

Total interest expense in the Core Portfolio decreased by $0.8 million in 2010. This was the result of a $1.2 million decrease attributable to lower average outstanding borrowings in 2010 offset by a $0.4 million increase attributable to higher average interest rates in 2010. Interest expense in the Opportunity Funds increased $1.6 million in 2010. This was the result of an increase of $0.6 million due to higher average outstanding borrowings in 2010, an increase of $0.2 million due to higher average interest rates in 2010 and $0.8 million of lower capitalized interest in 2010.

The gain on extinguishment of debt of $3.1 million is attributable to the purchase of our convertible debt at a discount in 2009.

Income from discontinued operations represents activity related to property sales in 2009.

Loss (income) attributable to noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries – Continued operations for the Opportunity Funds primarily represents the noncontrolling interests’ share of all the Opportunity Funds variances discussed above. Loss (income) attributable to noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries – Continued operations in Notes Receivable and Other relates to the noncontrolling interests’ share of capitalized construction, leasing and legal fees.

Loss (income) attributable to noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries - Discontinued operations for the Opportunity Funds primarily represents the noncontrolling interests’ share of activity related to property sales in 2009.

FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS

Consistent with the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) definition, we define funds from operations (“FFO”) as net income attributable to Common Shareholders (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of depreciated property, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.

We consider FFO to be an appropriate supplemental disclosure of operating performance for an equity REIT due to its widespread acceptance and use within the REIT and analyst communities. FFO is presented to assist investors in analyzing our performance. It is helpful as it excludes various items included in net income that are not indicative of the operating performance, such as gains (or losses) from sales of operating property and depreciation and amortization. However, our method of calculating FFO may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs. FFO does not represent cash generated from operations as defined by GAAP and is not indicative of cash available to fund all cash needs, including distributions. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income for the purpose of evaluating our performance or to cash flows as measures of liquidity.

The reconciliation of net income to FFO for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 is as follows:

	Three months ended March 31,
(dollars in millions)	2010			2009
Net income attributable to Common Shareholders	$	5.1		$	10.3
Depreciation of real estate and amortization of leasing costs (net of noncontrolling interests’ share)
Consolidated affiliates		4.6			4.3
Unconsolidated affiliates		0.4			0.4

Consolidated affiliates		—			(0.9	)
Income attributable to noncontrolling interest in Operating Partnership (1)		0.1			0.2

Financing activities	$	(25.6	)	$	98.8

Notes:

(1) Does not include distributions paid to Series A Preferred OP Unit holders.

USES OF LIQUIDITY

Our principal uses of liquidity are (i) distributions to our shareholders and OP unit holders, (ii) investments which include the funding of our capital committed to the Opportunity Funds and property acquisitions and redevelopment/re-tenanting activities within our Core Portfolio, and (iii) debt service and loan repayments, including the repurchase of our Convertible Notes.

Distributions

In order to qualify as a REIT for Federal income tax purposes, we must currently distribute at least 90% of our taxable income to our shareholders. For the three months ended March 31, 2010, we paid dividends and distributions on our Common Shares and Common OP Units totaling $7.4 million.

Investments

Fund I and Mervyns I

Retailer Controlled Property Venture

Reference is made to Note 7 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Part 1, Item 1 in this Form 10-Q for a discussion of RCP investments made to date.

New York Urban Infill Redevelopment Initiative

In September 2004, we, through Fund II, launched our New York Urban Infill Redevelopment initiative. During 2004, Fund II, together with an unaffiliated partner, P/A Associates, LLC (“P/A”), formed Acadia P/A Holding Company, LLC (“Acadia P/A”) for the purpose of acquiring, constructing, developing, owning, operating, leasing and managing certain mixed-use real estate properties in the New York City metropolitan area which include a retail component. P/A has agreed to invest 10% of required capital up to a maximum of $2.2 million and Fund II, the managing member, has agreed to invest the balance to acquire assets in which Acadia P/A agrees to invest. Operating cash flow is generally to be distributed pro-rata to Fund II and P/A until each has received a 10% cumulative return and then 60% to Fund II and 40% to P/A. Distributions of net refinancing and net sales proceeds, as defined, follow the distribution of operating cash flow except that unpaid original capital is returned before the 60%/40% split between Fund II and P/A. Upon the liquidation of the last property investment of Acadia P/A, to the extent that Fund II has not received an 18% internal rate of return (“IRR”) on all of its capital contributions, P/A is obligated to return a portion of its previous distributions, as defined, until Fund II has received an 18% IRR.

To date, Fund II has invested in nine New York Urban Infill Redevelopment construction projects, eight of which were made through Acadia P/A, as follows:

					Redevelopment (dollars in millions)

Other Fund III Investments

During February 2008, Acadia, through Fund III, and in conjunction with an unaffiliated partner, Storage Post, acquired a portfolio of eleven self-storage properties from Storage Post’s existing institutional investors for approximately $174.0 million. The properties are located throughout New York and New Jersey. The portfolio continues to be operated by Storage Post, which is a 5% equity partner.

During January 2009, Fund III purchased Cortlandt Towne Center for $78.0 million. The property is a 642,000 square foot shopping center located in Westchester County, NY, a trade area with high barriers to entry for regional and national retailers.

Preferred Equity Investment and Notes Receivable

Reference is made to Note 8 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Part 1, Item 1 in this Form 10-Q for an overview of our preferred equity investment and notes receivable. At March 31, 2010, our preferred equity investment, mezzanine loan investments and notes receivable, net aggregated $126.6 million with accrued interest thereon of $12.3 million, and were collateralized by the underlying properties, the borrower’s ownership interest in the entities that own the properties and/or by the borrower’s personal guarantee. Effective interest rates on our preferred equity investment, mezzanine loan investments and notes receivable ranged from 10.0% to 21.9% with maturities through January 2017.

Property Redevelopment and Expansion

Our redevelopment program focuses on selecting well-located neighborhood and community shopping centers and creating significant value through re-tenanting and property redevelopment. We currently have two properties in the early stages of redevelopment, Ledgewood Mall and Third Avenue.

Purchase of Convertible Notes

During 2009, we purchased an additional $57.0 million in face amount of our outstanding convertible notes for $46.7 million.

Share Repurchase

We have an existing share repurchase program that authorizes management, at its discretion, to repurchase up to $20.0 million of our outstanding Common Shares. The program may be discontinued or extended at any time and there is no assurance that we will purchase the full amount authorized. Under this program we have repurchased 2.1 million Common Shares, none of which were repurchased after December 2001. As of March 31, 2010, management may repurchase up to approximately $7.5 million of our outstanding Common Shares under this program.

SOURCES OF LIQUIDITY

We intend on using Fund III, as well as new funds that we may establish in the future, as the primary vehicles for our future acquisitions, including investments in the RCP Venture and New York Urban/Infill Redevelopment Initiative. Additional sources of capital for funding property acquisitions, redevelopment, expansion, re-tenanting and RCP Venture investments, are expected to be obtained primarily from (i) the issuance of public equity or debt instruments, (ii) cash on hand and cash flow from operating activities, (iii) additional debt financings, (iv) noncontrolling interests’ unfunded capital commitments of $325.2 million for Fund III, and (v) future sales of existing properties.

During 2010, Fund II received capital contributions of $14.8 million to fund redevelopment projects and pay down the line of credit of Fund II.

As of March 31, 2010, we had approximately $121.3 million of additional capacity under existing debt facilities and cash and cash equivalents on hand of $66.1 million.

During April 2009, we filed a shelf registration on Form S-3 providing for offerings of up to a total of $500.0 million of Common Shares, Preferred Shares and debt securities. During April 2009, we issued 5.75 million Common Shares and generated net proceeds of approximately $65.0 million. The proceeds were primarily used to purchase a portion of our outstanding convertible notes payable and pay down existing lines of credit. Following this issuance, we have remaining capacity under this registration statement to issue up to approximately $430.0 million of these securities.

Asset Sales

Asset sales are an additional source of liquidity for us. In March 2010, Fund I sold the Sterling Heights Shopping Center for $2.3 million. During November 2009, we sold Blackman Plaza for $2.5 million. During February 2009, The Kroger Co. purchased the fee at six locations in Fund I’s Kroger/Safeway Portfolio for $14.6 million of which Fund I’s share of the sales proceeds amounted to $8.1 million after the repayment of the mortgage debt on these properties.

Notes Receivable and Mezzanine Loan Repayments

During April 2010, we received a $2.1 million first mortgage loan payment.

Financing and Debt

At March 31, 2010, mortgage and convertible notes payable aggregated $754.7 million, net of unamortized premium of $0.1 million and unamortized discount of $1.8 million, and were collateralized by 27 properties and related tenant leases. Interest rates on our outstanding mortgage indebtedness and convertible notes payable ranged from 0.71% to 7.38% with maturities that ranged from April 2010 to November 2032. Taking into consideration $78.9 million of notional principal under variable to fixed-rate swap agreements currently in effect, $434.6 million of the portfolio, or 57.6%, was fixed at a 5.57% weighted average interest rate and $320.1 million, or 42.4% was floating at a 3.20% weighted average interest rate. There is $76.9 million of debt maturing in 2010 at weighted average interest rates of 2.15%. Of this amount, $1.6 million represents scheduled annual amortization. The loans relating to $35.3 million of the 2010 maturities provide for extension options, which we believe we will be able to exercise. If we are unable to extend these loans and refinance the balance of $41.6 million, we believe we will be able to repay this debt with existing liquidity, including unfunded capital commitments from the Opportunity Funds’ investors. As it relates to maturities after 2010, we may not have sufficient cash on hand to repay such indebtedness, we may have to refinance this indebtedness or select other alternatives based on market conditions at that time. Given the current lack of liquidity in the credit markets and the current economic environment, which may cause us to lose tenants or not secure new tenants for existing centers or projects under development, refinancing this debt will be very difficult. See the “Item 1A. Risk Factors,” including the discussions under the headings “The current economic environment, while improving, may cause us to lose tenants and may impair our ability to borrow money to purchase properties, refinance existing debt or finance our current redevelopment projects” in our 2009 Form 10-K.

We completed the following transactions related to mortgage loans and credit facilities during the three months ended March 31, 2010:

iii) on February 9, 2010, the Company paid off the outstanding Ledgewood line of credit balance of $2.0 million, which was scheduled to mature on March 29, 2010 and terminated the line of credit.

In June 2009, the servicer of two of the Company’s loans alleged that non-monetary defaults had occurred for two construction loans for $31.7 million and $11.5 million collateralized by the Pelham Manor Shopping Center and Atlantic Avenue, respectively. The servicer contends that the Company did not substantially complete the improvements in accordance with the required completion dates as defined in the loan agreements and, accordingly, did not meet the requirements for the final draws. The Company does not believe the loans are in default and will vigorously defend its position and is currently in discussions with the servicer to resolve these issues. The Company believes that the ultimate resolution of this matter will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS AND OTHER COMMITMENTS

At March 31, 2010, maturities on our mortgage notes ranged from April 2010 to November 2032. In addition, we have non-cancelable ground leases at six of our shopping centers. We also lease space for our corporate headquarters for a term expiring in 2015. The following table summarizes our debt maturities and obligations under non-cancelable operating leases as of March 31, 2010:

(dollars in millions)	Payments due by period

Notes:

(1) In conjunction with the redevelopment of our Core Portfolio and Opportunity Fund properties, we have entered into

construction commitments with general contractors. We intend to fund these requirements with existing liquidity.

OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

We have investments in the following joint ventures for the purpose of investing in operating properties. We account for these investments using the equity method of accounting as we have a noncontrolling interest. As such, our financial statements reflect our share of income and loss from but not the assets and liabilities of these joint ventures.

Reference is made to Note 7 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Part 1, Item 1 in this Form 10-Q for a discussion of our unconsolidated investments. Our pro rata share of unconsolidated debt related to these investments is as follows:

	Pro-rata share of mortgage debt
Investment	Opportunity Funds		Operating Partnership		Interest rate at March 31, 2010			Maturity date
Crossroads	$	n/a	$	30.4		5.37	%	December 2014
Brandywine		n/a		36.9		5.99	%	July 2016
CityPoint		6.1		1.2		2.75	%	August 2010
Total	$	6.1	$	68.5

In addition, we have arranged for the provision of four separate letters of credit in connection with certain leases and investments. As of March 31, 2010, there were no outstanding balances under any of the letters of credit. If the letters of credit were fully drawn, the combined maximum amount of our exposure would be $9.7 million.

HISTORICAL CASH FLOW

The following table compares the historical cash flow for the three months ended March 31, 2010 (“2010”) with the cash flow for the three months ended March 31, 2009 (“2009”)

	Three months ended March 31,
(dollars in millions)	2010			2009			Change

Net cash provided by operating activities	$	9.5		$	19.1		$	(9.6	)

Net cash used in investing activities		(11.6	)		(88.7	)		77.1
Net cash (used in) provided by financing activities		(25.6	)		98.8			(124.4	)

Total	$	(27.7	)	$	29.2		$	(56.9	)

A discussion of the significant changes in cash flow for 2010 versus 2009 is as follows:

The $9.6 million decrease in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily attributable to a $10.9 million decrease in other assets related to additional cash provided from the redemption of short term financial instruments in 2009.

The decrease of $77.1 million in net cash used in investing activities resulted from the following: (i) a decrease of $85.3 million in expenditures for real estate, development and tenant installations in 2010 and (ii) a decrease of $2.1 million in investments and advances to unconsolidated affiliates in 2010. These decreases in cash used were offset by an additional $9.5 million in proceeds from property sales in 2009.

The $124.4 million decrease in net cash provided by financing activities was attributable to $150.6 million of additional cash provided by borrowings in 2009. This 2010 cash decrease was offset by $13.9 million of cash used for the purchase of convertible notes in 2009 and $11.9 million of contributions from noncontrolling interests in 2010.

INFLATION

Our long-term leases contain provisions designed to mitigate the adverse impact of inflation on our net income. Such provisions include clauses enabling us to receive percentage rents based on tenants’ gross sales, which generally increase as prices rise, and/or, in certain cases, escalation clauses, which generally increase rental rates during the terms of the leases. Such escalation clauses are often related to increases in the consumer price index or similar inflation indexes. In addition, many of our leases are for terms of less than ten years, which permits us to seek to increase rents upon re-rental at market rates if current rents are below the then existing market rates. Most of our leases require the tenants to pay their share of operating expenses, including common area maintenance, real estate taxes, insurance and utilities, thereby reducing our exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Our primary market risk exposure is to changes in interest rates related to our mortgage debt. See the discussion under Item 2 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for certain quantitative details related to our mortgage debt.

Currently, we manage our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates primarily through the use of fixed-rate debt and interest rate swap agreements. As of March 31, 2010, we had total mortgage debt and convertible notes payable of $754.7 million, net of unamortized premium of $0.1 million and unamortized discount of $1.8 million, of which $434.6 million or 57.6% was fixed-rate, inclusive of interest rate swaps, and $320.1 million, or 42.4% was variable-rate based upon LIBOR or commercial paper rates plus certain spreads. As of March 31, 2010, we were a party to seven interest rate swap transactions to hedge our exposure to changes in interest rates with respect to $78.9 million of LIBOR-based variable-rate debt.

Of our total consolidated outstanding debt, $76.9 million and $361.3 million will become due in 2010 and 2011, respectively. As we intend on refinancing some or all of such debt at the then-existing market interest rates, which may be greater than the current interest rate, our interest expense would increase by approximately $4.4 million annually if the interest rate on the refinanced debt increased by 100 basis points. After giving effect to noncontrolling interests, the Company’s share of this increase would be $1.5 million.

Interest expense on our consolidated variable-rate debt, net of variable to fixed-rate swap agreements currently in effect, as of March 31, 2010 would increase by $3.2 million annually if LIBOR increased by 100 basis points. After giving effect to noncontrolling interests, the Company’s share of this increase would be $0.5 million. We may seek additional variable-rate financing if and when pricing and other commercial and financial terms warrant. As such, we would consider hedging against the interest rate risk related to such additional variable-rate debt through interest rate swaps and protection agreements, or other means.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. In accordance with paragraph (b) of Rule 13a-15 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

(b) Internal Control over Financial Reporting. There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
