SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION
 

Issuer Delisting; Notice of Application to Withdraw from Listing 
and Registration; (EastGroup Properties, Shares of Beneficial Interest, 
$1.00 Par Value) File No. 1-7094

June 10, 1994.
    EastGroup Properties (``Company'') has filed an 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 
security from listing and registration on the American Stock Exchange, 
Inc. (``Amex'').
    The reasons alleged in the application for withdrawing these 
securities from listing and registration include the following:
    According to the Company, in addition to being listed on the Amex, 
its Shares of Beneficial Interest are listed on the New York Stock 
Exchange, Inc. (``NYSE''). The Company's Shares of Beneficial Interest 
commenced trading on the NYSE at the opening of business on May 3, 
1994, and concurrently therewith such securities were suspended from 
trading on the Amex.
    In making the decision to withdraw its Share of Beneficial Interest 
from listing on the Amex, the Company considered the direct and 
indirect costs and expenses attendant on maintaining the dual listing 
of its Shares of Beneficial Interest on the NYSE and on the Amex. The 
Company does not see any particular advantage in the dual trading of 
its Shares of Beneficial Interest and believes that dual listing would 
fragment the market for its Shares of Beneficial Interest.
    Any interested person may, on or before July 1, 1994 submit by 
letter to the Secretary of the Securities and Exchange Commission, 450 
Fifth Street, NW., Washington, DC 20549, facts bearing upon whether the 
application has been made in accordance with the rules of the exchanges 
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.
Margaret H. McFarland,
Deputy Secretary.
