ITEM 2.  Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

On November 21, 1997,  Century Realty Trust (the "Trust"), through a 
wholly-owned qualified R.E.I.T. subsidiary, CR Management, Inc. 
(the "Buyer"),  acquired from a single unrelated seller, J. Scott 
Porter, and MP Realty Group of Richmond, Indiana (the "Seller"), 
the General Partner interest in five Limited Partnerships, each of 
which owned, as its principle asset, a single apartment property.  
Pursuant to the acquisition agreement, five new limited partnerships 
(the "Operating Partnerships") were formed to acquire the assets and
liabilities from the five old partnerships (the "Selling Partnerships"). 
The operating partnerships issued, in the aggregate, approximately 
285,000 operating partnership units (O.P. units) to the selling 
partnerships for their contribution of net assets, and approximately 
2,900 O.P. units representing a one percent equity interest, to CR 
Management, Inc.  The Buyer also assumed management control of the 
partnerships and their respective apartment properties.  For its one 
percent equity interest, acquisition of the General Partner interest, 
and management control, the Buyer paid $687,500 in cash and assumed
total General Partner responsibility for both the selling partnerships 
and the operating partnerships.  In addition, the Trust agreed to use 
its best efforts to grant to each beneficial owner of O.P. units, within 
two years after closing, the right to exchange his/her units, on a 
one-for-one basis, for shares of beneficial interest of the Trust.  After 
ten years from closing, the Trust, at its option, can require that any 
O.P. units not previously exchanged, be exhanged for Trust shares.  At 
the time of closing, the average quoted Bid price of the Trust's shares
of beneficial interest (OTC Electronic Bulletin Board) was $11.625 per 
share.  The share-equivalent value of the 285,000 O.P. units ($3.3 million) 
plus the cash investment of $687,500 represents the approximate purchase 
price of the real estate and other assets ($14.3 million) less assumed 
mortgage debt and other liabilities ($10.7 million) of the operating 
partnerships. In the aggregate, the apartment properties represent 92.3% of
the total partnership assets.

Following is a listing of the selling partnerships and operating partnerships:

Following is a description of the properties owned by the subject partnerships:

								
                                                 							     Year
  Name                   Location               Units        Built
Barcelona               Kokomo, IN               64           1971
Beech Grove             Jeffersonville,IN       182           1973
Hampton Court           Indianapolis, IN         92           1980
Sheffield Square        New Albany, IN          152           1974
West Wind Terrace       Indianapolis, IN         96           1967



Each of the  properties was built as a garden-style apartment community, and 
has been operated as such from its inception.  It is the intent of the Trust 
that each property will continue to be operated as a multi-family apartment 
community.  It is the further intent of the Trust to grant, within the two 
years specified in the acquisition agreement, to each beneficial owner of 
O.P. units, the right to exchange those units for shares of the Trust.  The 
Trust expects that most O.P. unit holders will, over time,  exercise their 
exchange option and that the Trust will, thereby, over time increase its 
equity ownership interest in the partnerships.


The cash investment and other transactional and organizational fees and 
expenses related to the acquisition was financed by $850,000 of short-term 
borrowings under the Trust's $3 million unsecured credit facility with NBD 
Bank, N.A.  Subsequent to such borrowings, the Trust has a total of $2.75 
million in loans outstanding under the credit facility.


The partnership valuations (purchase prices) which were negotiated with the 
Seller with respect to each selling partnership through their investment 
banker, were determined through an internal analysis by the Trust of the 
historical cash flows and fair market values of the acquired properties with
adjustments for the Trust's estimates of the costs of operations.  Those 
estimates were based on many years of experience by the Trust's management 
in operating multi-family apartment communities in Indiana of comparable 
ages and sizes. 


The Seller is not, and never has been, affiliated with the Trust, any 
trustee or officer of the Trust or any associate of any such Trustee or 
officer, except that King R.Traub, an officer and trustee of the Trust, 
directly or indirectly, is a limited partner in four of the five selling 
partnerships.  In the aggregate, Mr.Traub has a beneficial interest in 2,576 
O.P. units which represents less than one percent of the total limited 
partner interests. Traub and Company, Inc., of which King R.Traub is a 
principal, was paid fees totaling $111,875 by the selling partnerships for 
its services as investment banker in this transaction.  Mr. Traub, in his 
capacity as an officer and Trustee of the Trust, abstained from all 
discussions, negotiations and decisions related to this transaction.

CENTURY REALTY TRUST
NOTES TO THE PRO FORMA FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Year Ended December 31, 1997
Unaudited


1. Basis of presentation.  The pro forma financial statements of Century 
Realty Trust, which are unaudited, have been prepared based on its 
historical financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1996.  
The pro forma balance sheet of the Trust at December 31, 1996, has been 
prepared as if the acquisition of the Acquired Properties had occurred on 
December 31, 1996.  The pro forma statement of income for the year ended  
December 31, 1996, has been prepared as if the acquisition of the properties
had occurred on January 1, 1996.  In management's opinion, all adjustments 
necessary to reflect the effects of the acquisition of the property have 
been made.  The pro forma financial statements should be read in conjunction 
with the historical financial statements of the Trust.

The pro forma financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the 
actual financial condition or the results of operations had the acquisition 
occurred on the "as if" dates, nor are they necessarily indicative of the 
financial position or results of operations for future periods.  Prior to the 
acquisition, management of the Registrant conducted an examination of the 
seller's records and obtained detailed engineering inspections of the physical
properties.  Occupancy rates and trends were reviewed, financial records of
operating expenses were reviewed for reasonableness including, but not
limited to, property taxes, utilities and maintenance, and replacement 
reserves were evaluated as to adequacy in view of the physical inspection
results.  Following such examinations and reasonable inquiries, the Registrant 
is not aware of any material factors relating to the Acquired Properties
that would cause the reported financial information not to be necessarily
indicative of future operating results.



2. Pro forma adjustments.  On November 21, 1997, the Trust purchased the 
general partnership interest in the Acquired Properties, which consist of 
five limited partnerships, each of which owned a single apartment project.  
In the aggregate, the apartment properties contain 586 units. At the time of 
closing, the net assets of each partnership were transferred to a new 
operating partnership in exchange for operating partnership units 
representing current fair value of the net assets transferred.  Approximately 
92.3% of the net asset value was represented by the land, buildings and 
equipment of the apartment assets.  Based on the local tax assessors' 
valuations, 8.5% of the total apartment property value was allocated to land.  
Furnishings and equipment was valued at fair value based on a physical 
inventory taken at the time of closing.  The balance of the apartment 
property valuation, 90% of the total, was assigned to buildings and 
improvements.  The newly-formed operating partnerships assumed the existing 
mortgage loans from the predecessor entities.  The existing mortgage loans, 
with interest rates ranging from 8.25% to 8.875%, mature between 2006 and 
2030.  The balance of the purchase price consisted of $3.6 million of 
operating partnership units and $927,000 cash and short-term borrowings.  

Revenue and certain property-related operating expenses of the Acquired 
Properties for the year ended December 31, 1996 were audited.  To the extent 
applicable, the audited amounts are reflected in the pro forma statement of 
income.  Expenses related to the ownership of the properties, namely interest,
depreciation and certain entity-related expenses were computed as follows:


     Interest.  Interest expense applicable to the existing mortgage
     loans was computed at the contract rates on the unpaid balances, 
     assuming that all monthly payments were made timely, plus one-year's 
     amortization of loan procurement and assumption costs.  Interest           
     applicable to the short-term bank loan accrues at the rate of LIBOR 
     plus a spread and is adjustable periodically at intervals selected 
     by the borrower.  For pro forma purposes, an assumed effective rate 
     of 8% was used for one year on the balance of $850,000. The Short-term 
     loan interest expense is shown as a "Pro Forma Adjustment".
     
     
     Depreciation.  Depreciation was computed for one year using the
     straight-line method and useful lives of 33.3 years and five years 
     for buildings and improvements, and furnishings and equipment, 
     respectively.
	  
       
     Other Entity-Related Income and Expenses:  The partnership entities are 
     obligated contractually to pay certain fees, namely accounting and 
     administrative fees to the general partner.  Those fees total $68,000 
     annually. The acquisition agreement also provides that the cash 
     distributions to the Operating Partnership unit holders is limited to 
     the amount of dividends paid to shareholders of Century Realty Trust, 
     with one operating partnership unit being considered equivalent to one 
     share of beneficial interest of the Trust.  Excess distributable cash 
     flow is to be paid to the general partner as an additional fee.  For 
     1996, the aggregate excess cash flow was computed to be $36,000. The 
     contractual fees and the contingent fees, which totaled $104,000, is 
     shown as additional pro form income under "Pro Forma Adjustments".

general partner and were managed by First Richmond Corporation.

The accompanying combined statement of revenue and certain expenses is not

depreciation and amortization and other costs not directly related to the 
future operations of Century Realty Trust Acquired Properties.

In the preparation of the combined statement of revenue and expenses in 
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, management makes 
estimates and assumptions that effect the reported amounts of revenue and 
expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from these
estimates.
