SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION


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 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 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.
