ITEM 5.           OTHER EVENTS

     On  March  5,  2002,  Mid-Atlantic  Realty  Trust  issued  a press  release
announcing its operating  results for the fourth quarter and the full year ended
December 31, 2001. A copy of the press  release is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this
report.

     Mid-Atlantic  Realty Trust is  furnishing  the  December 31, 2001  Selected
Financial  Information  under Item 5 of this Current Report on Form 8-K attached
hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit 99.2 of this report.

     The December  31, 2001  Selected  Financial  Information  includes  forward
looking  statements under the federal  securities laws.  Statements that are not
historical in nature are intended to identify forward looking statements.  While
these statements reflect Mid-Atlantic Realty Trust's good faith beliefs based on
current  expectations,  estimates and projections about (among other things) the
industry and the markets in which it operates, they are not guarantees of future
performance,  involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties that could cause
actual  results  to  differ   materially  from  those  in  the  forward  looking
statements,  and  should not be relied  upon as  predictions  of future  events.
Factors which could impact future results  include (among other things)  general
economic  conditions,  local real estate  conditions,  oversupply  of  available
space, financial condition of tenants, timely ability to lease or re-lease space
upon favorable economic terms,  agreements with anchor tenants,  interest rates,
availability  of financing,  competitive  factors,  and similar  considerations.
Mid-Atlantic  Realty Trust disclaims any obligation to publicly update or revise
any forward looking  statement,  whether as a result of new information,  future
events or otherwise.
