(NEW YORK STOCK EXCHANGE - ALX) today reported that it has completed a tax certiorari proceeding with the City of New York regarding the Kings Plaza Shopping Center property. The Company and its joint venture partner have agreed with the City of New York to a reduction in the assessed values covering the tax years 1988/1989 through 1995/1996, generating a refund of $28,350,000.
