SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION


Issuer Delisting: Notice of Application To Withdraw From Listing 
and Registration: (Brandywine Realty Trust, Common Shares of Beneficial 
Interest Par Value $.01) File No. 1-9106

November 5, 1997.
    Brandwyine Realty Trust (``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 (``Security'') from listing and registration on the American 
Stock Exchange, Inc. (``Amex'' or ``Exchange'').
    The reasons cited in the application for withdrawing the Security 
from listing and registration include the following:
    The Company has complied with Rule 18 of the Amex by filing with 
such Exchange a certified copy of preambles and resolutions adopted by 
the Company's Board of Trustees authorizing the withdrawal of its 
Security from listing on the Amex and by setting forth in detail to 
such Exchange the reasons for such proposed withdrawal, and the facts 
in support thereof.
    In making the decision to withdraw its Security from listing on the 
Amex, the Company considered the direct and indirect costs and expenses 
attendant on maintaining the dual listing of its Security on the New 
York Stock Exchange (``NYSE'') and the Amex. The Company does not see 
any particular advantage in the dual trading of its security and 
believes that dual listing would fragment the market for its security.
    By letter dated October 8, 1997, the Exchange has informed the 
Company that its has no objection to the withdrawal of the Company's 
Security from listing on the Amex. Trading in the Security on the NYSE 
commenced on October 21, 1997 and concurrently therewith the Security 
were suspended from trading on the Amex.
    Any interested person may, on or before November 28, 1997, submit 
by letter to the Secretary of the Securities and Exchange Commission, 
450 Fifth Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 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.
