Issuer Delisting; Notice of Application to Withdraw From Listing and Registration; (CenterTrust Retail Properties, Inc., Common Stock, and 7\1/2\ Convertible Subordinated Debentures Due 2001, Series A) File No. 1-12588

February 16, 1999.

CenterTrust Retail Properties, Inc. (``Company'') has filedan application with the Securities and Exchange Commission (``Commission''), pursuant to Section 12(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (``Act'') and Rule 12d2-2(d) promulgated thereunder, to withdraw the above specified securities (``Securities'') from listing and registration on the American Stock Exchange, Inc. (``Amex'' or ``Exchange'').

The reasons cited in the application for withdrawing the Securities from listing and registration include the following:

The Securities of the Company have been listed for trading on the Amex and, pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form 8-A which became effective on February 3, 1999, on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. (``NYSE''). Trading of the Company's Securities on the NYSE commenced at the opening of business on February 3, 1999, and concurrently therewith the Securities were suspended from trading on the Amex.

The Company has complied with Rule 18 of the Amex by filing with the Exchange a certified copy of preambles and resolutions adopted by the Company's Board of Directors authorizing the withdrawal of its Securities from listing on the Amex and by setting forth in detail to the Exchange the reasons for the proposed withdrawal, and the facts in support thereof. In making the decision to withdraw its Securities from listing on the Amex, the Company considered, among other factors, its desire to increase its exposure to the financial and investment communities.

The Exchange has informed the Company that it has no objection to the withdrawal of the Company's Securities from listing on the Amex.

The Company's application relates solely to the withdrawal from listing of the Company's Securities from the Amex and shall have no effect upon the continued listing of the Securities on the NYSE. By reason of Section 12(b) of the Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder, the Company shall continue to be obligated to file reports under Section 13 of the Act with the Commission and the NYSE.

Any interested person may, on or before, March 8, 1999, submit by letter to the Secretary of the Securities and Exchange Commission, 450 5th Street, NW, Washington, DC 20549, facts bearing upon whether the application has been made in accordance with the rules of the Exchange and what terms, if any, should be imposed by the Commission for the protection of investors. The Commission, based on the information submitted to it, will issue an order granting the application after the date mentioned above, unless the Commission determines to order a hearing on the matter.

For the Commission, by the Division of Market Regulation, pursuant to delegated authority. Jonathan G. Katz, Secretary.
