Exhibit 99.1


 Forest City Reports Third-Quarter and Year-to-Date Financial Results

    CLEVELAND--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec. 8, 2005--Forest City Enterprises,
Inc. (NYSE:FCEA) (NYSE:FCEB) today announced revenues, net earnings
and EBDT for the third quarter and nine months ended October 31, 2005.
All per-share figures are adjusted for the Company's two-for-one stock
split effective July 11, 2005.
    For the third quarter ended October 31, 2005, consolidated
revenues increased to $291.2 million compared with $250.3 million for
the third quarter a year ago. Third-quarter net earnings were $12.9
million, or $0.13 per share, compared with $37.3 million, or $0.37 per
share, in 2004. EBDT was $64.3 million, or $0.63 per share, compared
with last year's third-quarter EBDT of $82.6 million, or $0.81 per
share.
    For the nine-month period ended October 31, 2005, consolidated
revenues increased to $911.6 million compared with $750.9 million in
2004. Net earnings were $55.3 million, or $0.54 per share, compared
with $79.4 million, or $0.78 per share, in the prior year. EBDT
(Earnings Before Depreciation, Amortization and Deferred Taxes) for
the nine months was $196.8 million, or $1.92 per share, compared with
last year's $208.7 million, or $2.05 per share.
    EBDT and EBDT per share are non-Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles (GAAP) measures. A reconciliation of net earnings (the most
directly comparable GAAP measure to EBDT) to EBDT is provided in the
Financial Highlights table in this news release.
    Charles A. Ratner, president and chief executive officer of Forest
City Enterprises, said, "Our third-quarter and year-to-date financial
performance was in line with our expectations and our operating plans
for the 2005 fiscal year. Despite timing issues that have affected the
comparison of our year-to-date numbers, we believe these results will
be more than offset by a strong performance in the fourth quarter. We
remain on target for a record year, our 26th consecutive year of EBDT
growth."
    The 6.3 percent decrease in EBDT per share for the first nine
months of 2005 and 22.2 percent decrease for the third quarter are
mostly attributed to Stapleton financing income recognized in 2004;
the increased loss for The Nets (basketball team), which the Company
did not own in the first half of 2004; and 2004 EBDT from the Lumber
Trading Group, which was sold in the fourth quarter of last year.
These items were partially offset by increases in sales of outlot land
in the Commercial Group.
    Net earnings were down for both the year-to-date period and
quarter ended October 31, 2005, primarily due to the timing of
dispositions of operating properties. In addition to the items
described above, the year-to-date comparison was also affected by a
one-time charge to earnings from the adoption of FASB Interpretation
No. 46 (R) in the first quarter of 2004, and a favorable change in the
Company's effective tax rate (resulting from a change in the Ohio tax
law) in 2005.
    Comparable property net operating income (NOI) - defined as NOI
from properties operated during comparable periods in both 2005 and
2004 - increased 2.5 percent in the first nine months of 2005.
Year-to-date comparable property NOI for the retail portfolio was up
2.5 percent and the office portfolio was down 0.6 percent. Lease
rollovers in Cleveland, Pittsburgh and San Jose unfavorably impacted
the office portfolio. The residential portfolio comparable property
NOI increased 3.6 percent - a substantial improvement over the prior
year and further evidence of continued improvement in the residential
rental market after a three-year downturn.
    Year-to-date 2005 comparable occupancies were up in total compared
with the same period a year ago. Retail occupancies were 93.3 percent
compared with 92.3 percent last year; office occupancies were 94.2
percent compared with 92.5 percent last year; and residential
increased to 93.1 percent from 92.6 percent.
    Comparable property NOI, a non-GAAP financial measure, is based on
the pro-rata consolidation method, also a non-GAAP financial measure.
Included in this release is an exhibit that presents comparable
property NOI on the full consolidation method.

    Real Estate Highlights

    A schedule of the Company's project openings and acquisitions, and
the pipeline of projects under construction is included in this news
release. Highlighted below are several of the Company's recent and
upcoming project openings, projects under construction, and projects
under development. The attached exhibit includes comparable project
costs on both a pro-rata share and full consolidation basis.

    Openings

    In the first three fiscal quarters, the Company opened or acquired
eight projects. With two project openings already in the fourth
quarter, Forest City has opened everything that it planned to open
during fiscal 2005, at a total cost of $511.5 million on a full
consolidation basis and $538.0 million at the Company's share.
    In October 2005, Forest City opened the $149 million Simi Valley
Town Center open-air regional lifestyle center in Southern California.
The 660,000-square-foot center features anchor tenants Macy's and
Robinsons-May, and more than 110 premier specialty shops including
Anthropologie, Abercrombie & Fitch, Coach, Ann Taylor Loft and Urban
Outfitters, and six restaurants including California Pizza Kitchen and
Dakota's Great Steakhouse. The town center is 90 percent leased and
traffic is strong. The Company has a commitment to permanently finance
the project at a fixed rate below 6 percent.
    Forest City also completed and opened two rental residential
communities during the third quarter. 100 Landsdowne is an 18-story,
203-unit rental residential community (representing $66.2 million of
cost on both a full consolidation and pro-rata share basis) that is
the final building to be completed at the Company's University Park at
MIT life sciences park near Boston. Ashton Mill is a Civil War-era
cotton mill near Providence, Rhode Island, that has been transformed
into more than 190 apartment units at a cost of $45.3 million (on both
a full consolidation and pro-rata share basis).
    In September, IKEA held the grand opening of its new
310,000-square-foot store in the Chicago suburb of Bolingbrook,
Illinois. The IKEA store is the first phase of Forest City's adjacent
698,000-square-foot, $109.3 million Bolingbrook Town Center, an
open-air regional lifestyle center that will feature Macy's and Bass
Pro Shops Outdoor World when it is completed in 2007.

    Additional openings in the fourth quarter include:

    --  Sterling Glen of Lynbrook, a 100-unit senior housing community
        (representing $30.8 million on a full consolidation basis and
        $24.6 million of cost at the Company's share) located next to
        a nature preserve on Long Island.

    --  Met Lofts, which features 264 loft apartments in the growing
        South Park neighborhood of downtown Los Angeles - with $32.7
        million of cost at the Company's share.

    --  Northfield at Stapleton, which opened a Super Target and a
        Circuit City as the first anchors at the
        1.1-million-square-foot lifestyle retail center in Denver.
        Nearby, the 186,000-square-foot Bass Pro Shops opened in
        November. See "Denver Stapleton" section for more information
        on this project.

    Projects Under Construction

    As of the end of the third quarter, Forest City's pipeline
included 13 projects under construction - three retail, three office,
five residential communities and two condominiums -- representing a
total cost of $629.3 million on a full consolidation basis and $1.2
billion of cost at the Company's pro-rata share. Of the 13 projects
under construction, seven are scheduled to open in 2006.
    Among the projects under construction are large, complex
commercial developments from coast to coast, including: the 1.5
million-square-foot, 52-story New York Times Headquarters building in
Manhattan; the 1-million-square-foot San Francisco Centre - Emporium
retail project in downtown San Francisco; and the 22-acre Illinois
Science + Technology Park in the Chicago suburb of Skokie, Illinois.
For more on the life sciences park near Chicago, refer to the "Science
+ Technology Group Update" later in this release.
    Despite significant cost pressures for building materials, the
cost of these projects has already been committed to by contract, and
the Company expects to complete these projects on time and on budget.
See the Company's Pipeline schedule in this news release for a
complete listing of projects under construction.

    Projects Under Development

    At the end of the third quarter, the Company had more than 20
projects under development, representing approximately $2 billion.
During the quarter, Forest City reached important milestones at a
number of projects under development.
    The Commercial Group is expected to break ground soon on The
Orchard Town Center in the Denver suburb of Westminster, Colorado.
Scheduled to open in 2006, this $125.0 million (cost at full
consolidation and on a pro-rata basis), 853,000-square-foot
development will be an anchored open-air lifestyle center featuring
retail, dining and residential venues.
    In September, Forest City Ratner Companies (the New York City
affiliate of Forest City) announced that the New York State transit
agency has accepted the Company's $100 million offer to acquire 8.3
acres of land in Brooklyn for the development of its 21-acre Brooklyn
Atlantic Yards project, which is scheduled to begin construction next
year. Atlantic Yards' centerpiece is expected to be a new arena for
the Nets basketball team.
    In October, the Company entered into a joint venture partnership
agreement with Magna Entertainment Corp. for the planned development
of The Village at Gulfstream Park, a 55-acre mixed-use project in
Hallandale, Florida. The planned first phase includes the integration
of a lifestyle shopping, residential, hotel and entertainment venue
with Magna's expanded and renovated Gulfstream Park racetrack.
    In downtown Dallas, the Residential Group entered the market with
its Mercantile Bank redevelopment project, which will consist of 210
rental apartments, as well as a new 152-unit apartment building and
the redevelopment of the adjacent Continental Building into 165
condominium units. During the third quarter, Forest City acquired the
first building for redevelopment and solidified the public/private
partnership that will be integral to the success of the project.
    The Residential Group will break ground this month on The Uptown
Apartments, which will include 665 rental residential units in center
city Oakland. During the third quarter, after approximately five years
of work, the Company closed on a $160 million tax-exempt bond deal for
the project - the largest single issue in California history. In
addition to the apartments, the project will include 9,000 square feet
of retail space on 6 acres near a mass transit station, 15 minutes
from downtown San Francisco.

    Science + Technology Group Update

    Just as Forest City is completing University Park at MIT, Forest
City's Science + Technology Group has two other large life science
projects under development. In the Chicago suburb of Skokie, Illinois,
Forest City has begun repositioning and redevelopment of a $77.5
million (cost at full consolidation and on a pro-rata share basis),
22-acre life sciences park known as Illinois Science + Technology
Park. The Company plans to renovate or redevelop four existing
structures and replace others with new research and office facilities.
Forest City has also begun development of the first phase of an
80-acre mixed-use project adjacent to the Johns Hopkins University
medical campus in East Baltimore, Maryland. The first phase is
expected to include approximately 1 million square feet of life
sciences office space and up to 850 residential units. Johns Hopkins
has committed to occupy at least 100,000 square feet of the first
275,000-square-foot building.
    Forest City has been selected to participate in exclusive
negotiations for the development of two other life sciences office
campuses. In the third quarter, Forest City was selected to negotiate
for the rights to develop a 14-acre office campus for Case Western
Reserve University School of Medicine in Cleveland. In the fourth
quarter, Forest City won exclusive negotiating rights for the 160-acre
Fitzsimons life sciences office park adjacent to the Company's Denver
Stapleton project. Forest City would focus on developing build-to-suit
office and research space for life sciences companies interested in
working with the University of Colorado at Denver Health Sciences
Center and the University of Colorado Hospital, which are also
expanding to the Fitzsimons campus. The project involves the adaptive
re-use of a former U.S. Army base and hospital.

    Denver Stapleton and Land Development Update

    The third quarter of 2005 saw the Company's mixed-use
redevelopment of Stapleton continuing to move forward as one of the
premier new urban communities in the nation. At the new
1.1-million-square-foot Northfield at Stapleton, Super Target, Circuit
City and Bass Pro Shops Outdoor World Superstore are now open for
business. Additional phases, which will include main street retail, an
18-screen theater complex and a Foley's department store, are
scheduled to be completed next year.
    Sales and development of land for residential use have remained
strong. During the third quarter, Stapleton's builders sold 248 homes
and residents moved into 220 homes. Since inception in 2001, Stapleton
has had 2,364 homes sold and 1,913 occupied.
    During the third quarter, Forest City acquired more than 400 acres
in Aberdeen, North Carolina, for the development of a new
master-planned golf community to be known as Legacy Lakes. Plans for
the community call for the development of more than 600 single-family
and multifamily homes, to be built by a mix of national and local
builders and clustered in villages and enclaves throughout the
project.
    At the end of the third quarter, the Company owned approximately
8,700 acres of land involving 39 projects in 9 states.

    Financing Activity

    Forest City continues to take advantage of current interest rates
and attractive debt markets for its project financings, with primary
emphasis on locking in fixed-rate nonrecourse mortgages. During the
first nine months of fiscal 2005, Forest City closed on transactions
totaling $922.6 million in nonrecourse mortgage financings, including
$321.1 million for new development projects and acquisitions, $512.4
million in refinancings, and $89.1 million in loan extensions.
    At October 31, 2005, the Company's weighted average cost of
mortgage debt increased to 5.92 percent from 5.74 percent at October
31, 2004, primarily due to the general increases in short-term rates.
Fixed-rate mortgage debt, which represented 68 percent of the
Company's total nonrecourse mortgage debt, decreased from 6.58 percent
at October 31, 2004 to 6.33 percent at October 31, 2005. The
variable-rate mortgage debt increased from 3.92 percent at October 31,
2004 to 5.02 percent at October 31, 2005.

    Outlook

    Ratner said, "2005 continues to be a good year for us. Our retail
portfolio is growing, our office properties are focused in good
markets, the residential business is rebounding from three very tough
years, and the land business is robust and expanding. Throughout our
business, we are building our capabilities and our portfolio in our
core markets. Our experience with open-air regional lifestyle centers,
life science office parks, adaptive reuse rental residential
apartments, condominiums, and master-planned communities gives us a
competitive advantage.
    "We are pleased with our performance to date and confident that
our momentum heading into our fourth quarter will result in a very
successful year for the Company in fiscal 2005. We are on track for
2005 to be our 26th consecutive year of EBDT growth."

    Corporate Description

    Forest City Enterprises, Inc. is a $7.8 billion NYSE-listed
national real estate company. The Company is principally engaged in
the ownership, development, management and acquisition of commercial
and residential real estate throughout the United States.

    Supplemental Package

    Please refer to the Investor Relations section of the Company's
website at www.forestcity.net for a Supplemental Package, which the
Company will also furnish to the Securities and Exchange Commission on
Form 8-K. This Supplemental Package includes operating and financial
information for the third quarter and nine months ended October 31,
2005, with reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures, such as
comparable net operating income and pro-rata financial statements, to
their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

    EBDT

    The Company uses an additional measure, along with net earnings,
to report its operating results. This non-GAAP measure, referred to as
Earnings Before Depreciation, Amortization and Deferred Taxes, is not
a measure of operating results or cash flows from operations as
defined by GAAP and may not be directly comparable to similarly titled
measures reported by other companies.
    The Company believes that EBDT provides additional information
about its core operations and, along with net earnings, is necessary
to understand its operating results. EBDT is used by the chief
operating decision maker and management in assessing operating
performance and to consider capital requirements and allocation of
resources by segment and on a consolidated basis. The Company believes
EBDT is important to investors because it provides another method for
the investor to measure its long-term operating performance, as net
earnings can vary from year to year due to property dispositions,
acquisitions and other factors that have a short-term impact.
    EBDT is defined as net earnings excluding the following items: i)
gain (loss) on disposition of rental properties, divisions and other
investments (net of tax); ii) the adjustment to recognize rental
revenues and rental expense using the straight-line method; iii)
non-cash charges from real estate operations of Forest City Rental
Properties Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Forest City
Enterprises, Inc., for depreciation, amortization (including
amortization of mortgage procurement costs) and deferred income taxes;
iv) provision for decline in real estate (net of tax); v)
extraordinary items (net of tax); and vi) cumulative effect of change
in accounting principle (net of tax). Unlike the real estate segments,
EBDT for the Nets segment equals net earnings of the equity method
investment.
    EBDT is reconciled to net earnings, the most comparable financial
measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, in the table titled
Financial Highlights below and in the Company's Supplemental Package,
which the Company will also furnish to the SEC on Form 8-K. The
adjustment to recognize rental revenues and rental expenses on the
straight-line method is excluded because it is management's opinion
that rental revenues and expenses should be recognized when due from
the tenants or due to the landlord. The Company excludes depreciation
and amortization expense related to real estate operations from EBDT
because it believes the values of its properties, in general, have
appreciated over time in excess of their original cost. Deferred taxes
from real estate operations, which are the result of timing
differences of certain net expense items deducted in a future year for
federal income tax purposes, are excluded until the year in which they
are reflected in our current tax provision. The provision for decline
in real estate is excluded from EBDT because it varies from year to
year based on factors unrelated to our overall financial performance
and is related to the ultimate gain on dispositions of operating
properties. The Company's EBDT may not be directly comparable to
similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

    Pro-Rata Consolidation Method

    This press release contains certain financial measures prepared in
accordance with GAAP under the full consolidation accounting method
and certain financial measures prepared in accordance with the
pro-rata consolidation method, a non-GAAP financial measure. The
Company presents certain financial amounts under the pro-rata method
because it believes this information is useful to investors as this
method reflects the manner in which the Company operates its business.
In line with industry practice, the Company has made a large number of
investments in which its economic ownership is less than 100 percent
as a means of procuring opportunities and sharing risk. Under the
pro-rata consolidation method, the Company presents its investments
proportionate to its share of ownership. Under GAAP, the full
consolidation method is used to report partnership assets and
liabilities as consolidated at 100 percent if deemed to be under its
control or if the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary of
the variable interest entities ("VIE"), even if its ownership is not
100 percent. The Company provides reconciliations from the full
consolidation method to the pro-rata consolidation method, in the
exhibits below and throughout its Supplemental Package, which the
Company will also furnish to the SEC on Form 8-K.

            Forest City Enterprises, Inc. and Subsidiaries
                         Financial Highlights
              Nine Months Ended October 31, 2005 and 2004
                            (in thousands)

1) Pursuant to the definition of a component of an entity of SFAS No.
144, assuming no significant continuing involvement, all earnings of
properties and a division which have been sold or held for sale are
reported as discontinued operations.

2) The Company uses an additional measure, along with net earnings, to
report its operating results. This measure, referred to as Earnings
Before Depreciation, Amortization and Deferred Taxes ("EBDT"), is not
a measure of operating results as defined by generally accepted
accounting principles and may not be directly comparable to
similarly-titled measures reported by other companies. The Company
believes that EBDT provides additional information about its
operations, and along with net earnings, is necessary to understand
its operating results. EBDT is defined as net earnings excluding the
following items: i) gain (loss) on disposition of operating
properties, divisions and other investments (net of tax); ii) the
adjustment to recognize rental revenues and rental expense using the
straight- line method; iii) noncash charges from Forest City Rental
Properties Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Forest City
Enterprises, Inc., for depreciation, amortization (including
amortization of mortgage procurement costs) and deferred income taxes;
iv) provision for decline in real estate (net of tax); v)
extraordinary items (net of tax); and vi) cumulative effect of change
in accounting principle (net of tax). See our discussion of EBDT in
the news release.

3) Amount represents depreciation expense for certain syndicated
properties accounted for on the equity method of accounting under both
full consolidation and pro-rata consolidation (a non-GAAP financial
measure). See our discussion of pro-rata consolidation in the news
release.

4) The Company recognizes minimum rents on a straight-line basis over
the term of the related lease pursuant to the provision of SFAS No.
13, "Accounting for Leases." The straight-line rent adjustment is
recorded as an increase or decrease to revenue from Forest City Rental
Properties Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Forest City
Enterprises, Inc., with the applicable offset to either accounts
receivable or accounts payable, as appropriate.

5) The following table provides detail of Depreciation and
Amortization and Amortization of mortgage procurement costs. The
Company's Real Estate Groups are owned by Forest City Rental
Properties Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary engaged in the
ownership, development, acquisition and management of real estate
projects, including apartment complexes, regional malls and retail
centers, hotels, office buildings and mixed-use facilities, as well as
large land development projects.

OCTOBER 31, 2005 FOOTNOTES
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------

(a) Amounts are presented on the full consolidation method of
    accounting, a GAAP measure. Under full consolidation, costs are
    reported as consolidated at 100 percent if we are deemed to have
    control or to be the primary beneficiary of our investments in the
    variable interest entity ("VIE").
(b) Cost at pro-rata share represents Forest City's share of cost,
    based on the Company's pro-rata ownership of each property (a
    Non-GAAP measure). Under the pro-rata consolidation method of
    accounting the Company determines its pro-rata share by
    multiplying its pro- rata ownership by the total cost of the
    applicable property.
(c) Reported under the equity method of accounting. This method
    represents a GAAP measure for investments in which the Company is
    not deemed to have control or to be the primary beneficiary of our
    investments in a VIE.
(d) Not used.
(e) Phased-in openings. Costs are representative of the total project.
(f) The difference between the full consolidation amount (GAAP) of
    $0.0 million of cost to the Company's pro-rata share (a non-GAAP
    measure) of $24.8 million of cost consists of the Company's share
    of cost for unconsolidated investments of $24.8 million.
(g) Supported-living property.
(h) The difference between the full consolidation amount (GAAP) of
    $629.3 million of cost to the Company's pro-rata share (a non-GAAP
    measure) of $1,182.6 million of cost consists of a reduction to
    full consolidation for minority interest of $25.4 million of cost
    and the addition of its share of cost for unconsolidated
    investments of $578.7 million.
(i) As is customary within the real estate industry, the Company
    invests in certain real estate projects through joint ventures.
    For these projects, the Company provides funding for certain of
    its partners' equity contributions. The Company consolidates its
    investments in these projects in accordance with FIN No. 46(R) at
    a consolidation percentage that is reflected in the Pro-Rata FCE %
    column. These advances entitle the Company to a preferred return
    on investment, which is payable from cash flows of each respective
    property. At the point the Company is no longer entitled to a
    preferred return on a particular joint venture because the
    partner's advance has been repaid in full, the Company's net
    assets will be adjusted to its intended ownership percentage
    (reflected in the FCE Legal Ownership % column) by recording a
    minority interest to reflect the amount of the partner's claim on
    those net assets.
(j) This project will also include the option to purchase an adjacent
    retail center totaling 508,000 square feet.
(k) Formerly Tanglewood Crest.
(l) Formerly Bryant Landing.
(m) Formerly Subway Terminal.
(n) Includes 39,000 square feet of office space.
(o) Includes 235,000 square feet of office space.
(p) Phased opening: Phase I opens Q4-05, Phase II opens Q1-06, Phase
    III opens Q3-06.
(q) The difference between the full consolidation amount (GAAP) of
    $0.0 million of cost to the Company's pro-rata share (a non-GAAP
    measure) of $25.0 million of cost consists of Forest City's share
    of cost for unconsolidated investments of $25.0 million.
(r) Formerly Pfizer.
