Increases Earnings Guidance

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 26, 2007--Acadia Realty Trust (NYSE: AKR - "Acadia" or the "Company"), a real estate investment trust ("REIT"), announced today that it has received a cash distribution totaling approximately $8.5 million from its investment interest in Albertson's LLC. The distribution represents the Company's share of the approximately $42.5 million distribution made with respect to Acadia and its subsidiaries' investment in its Retailer Controlled Property Venture ("RCP Venture"). The distribution resulted from cash proceeds obtained by Albertson's LLC in connection with its disposition of certain operating stores and a refinancing of the remaining assets held in the entity.

As a result of this transaction, the Company is increasing its previously provided 2007 full-year funds from operations ("FFO") guidance to a range of $1.30 to $1.35 per share from the previously announced range of $1.24 to $1.32 per share. The Company is also revising its previously provided 2007 earnings per share guidance to a range of $0.65 to $0.70 from the previous range of $0.59 to $0.67.

The following is a reconciliation of the calculation of FFO per share and earnings per share:
