INDEPENDENT  AUDITORS'  REPORT

To  the  Board  of  Trust  Managers  and  Shareholders  of
     Weingarten  Realty  Investors:

We  have  audited  the accompanying statement of revenue and certain expenses of
the  Colonial  Plaza  Market Center ("Colonial") for the year ended December 31,
2000.  This  statement  of  revenue  and  certain expenses is the responsibility
of  the  Colonial management.  Our  responsibility  is  to  express  an  opinion
on  the  statement  of  revenue  and  certain  expenses  based  on  our  audit.

We  conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in  the  United  States  of  America.  Those  standards require that we plan and
perform  the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the statement of
revenue  and  certain  expenses  is  free  of  material  misstatement.  An audit
includes  examining  on  a  test  basis,  evidence  supporting  the  amounts and
disclosures  in  the statement.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles  used  and  significant  estimates  made  by  management,  as well as
evaluating  the  overall  statement of revenue and certain expense presentation.
We  believe  that  our  audit  provides  a  reasonable  basis  for  our opinion.

The  accompanying statement of revenue and certain expenses was prepared for the
purpose  of  complying  with  the  rules  and  regulations of the Securities and
Exchange  Commission  for  inclusion in Form 8-K of Weingarten Realty Investors.
Certain  expenses  (described  in  Note 1) that would not be comparable to those
resulting  from  the proposed future operations of the property are excluded and
the  statement  is  not  intended  to  be  a complete presentation of Colonial's
revenue  and  expenses.

In  our  opinion, the statement of revenue and certain expenses presents fairly,
in all material respects, the revenue and certain expenses, as defined above, of
the  Colonial  Plaza  Market  Center  for  the  year ended December 31, 2000, in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America.

COLONIAL  PLAZA  MARKET  CENTER
NOTES  TO  STATEMENT  OF  REVENUE  AND  CERTAIN  EXPENSES
FOR  THE  YEAR  ENDED  DECEMBER  31,  2000


1.  ORGANIZATION  AND  SUMMARY  OF  SIGNIFICANT  ACCOUNTING  POLICIES

     Organization  -  The accompanying statement of revenue and certain expenses
includes  the  operations  of  the  Colonial  Plaza  Market Center ("Colonial").
Colonial  was  purchased  by  Weingarten  Realty  Investors  (the  "Company") on
February  28, 2001 from Cousins Properties Incorporated. This acquisition, which
represents  the  largest  single  asset  purchase  in  the  history of WRI, is a
480,000-square-foot  power  center  in  Orlando, Florida. The center was sold to
Weingarten  Realty  Investors  for  $54 million. Colonial Plaza Market Center is
located  on  46  acres  on  East Colonial Drive (Highway 50) at Bumby Avenue two
miles  from  downtown Orlando. The center is anchored by Babies "R" Us, Barnes &
Noble,  Circuit  City,  Just  For  Feet,  Linens 'N Things, Marshalls, Old Navy,
Rhodes  Furniture, Ross Dress For Less, Stein Mart and Staples. The Company is a
Texas  real  estate  investment  trust,  which  is  primarily  involved  in  the
acquisition,  development,  and  management of real estate, consisting mostly of
neighborhood  and community shopping centers and, to a lesser extent, industrial
properties.

     Basis  of  Presentation - The accompanying statement was prepared to comply
with  the  rules  and  regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for
inclusion  in  Form  8-K  of  the  Company.

     The  accompanying  statement is not representative of the actual operations
for  the  period presented as certain expenses that may not be comparable to the
expenses  expected  to  be  incurred  by the Company in the future operations of
Colonial have been excluded. Excluded expenses consist of interest, depreciation
and  amortization,  property  expenses  and general and administrative costs not
directly  comparable  to  the  future  operations  of  Colonial.

     Revenue  Recognition  -  Rental  revenue  is  generally  recognized  on  a
straight-line  basis  over  the  life  of the lease for operating leases. Tenant
reimbursements  (payments  for  taxes, maintenance expenses and insurance by the
lessees)  are  estimated  and  accrued  over  the  fiscal  year.

     Use  of  Estimates  -  The  preparation of the financial statement requires
management to make use of estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported
in  the financial statement as well as certain disclosures. Actual results could
differ  from  those  estimates.

2.     RENTALS  UNDER  OPERATING  LEASES

     Future  minimum  rental  income  from  non-cancelable  operating  leases at
December  31,  2000  is:

acquisitions  of  the  acquired  properties  and  (B)  the  acquisition of other
properties,  as set forth in the Notes and Significant Assumptions, had occurred
as  of the beginning of each period.  The pro forma adjustments on the pro forma
condensed  statements  of  income  reflect the revenues and expenses, other than
depreciation and interest, of the Acquired Properties and the Other Acquisitions
(see  Notes A and B for descriptions of the properties included in each grouping
and  for pro forma assumptions for interest and depreciation) from the beginning
of the period through the date of acquisition by WRI.  The pro forma adjustments
on  the  pro forma condensed balance sheet primarily reflects the purchase price
of  properties  acquired  subsequent  to  June  30,  2001  (see  Note  C).

                          WEINGARTEN REALTY INVESTORS
                       NOTES AND SIGNIFICANT ASSUMPTIONS
                                  (Unaudited)


(A)     ACQUIRED  PROPERTIES

The aggregate purchase price for the acquisitions described below (the "Acquired
Properties")  was  $332.2  million and was allocated between land and buildings,
with  the  buildings  being  depreciated  over  a  period of forty years.  These
purchases  were  funded  under  the Company's revolving credit facility (average
rate  of  5.50%) with the exception of a $131.9 million of debt (average rate of
8.33%)  which was assumed by the Company.  Pro forma revenue and expenses, other
than interest and depreciation, represent the historical amounts of the Acquired
Properties.

On  April  2,  2001,  WRI  purchased  19 supermarket-anchored shopping  centers,
aggregating  2.5  million  square  feet  from Burnham Pacific  Properties,  Inc.
These  properties  (the  "Golden  State  Portfolio") are over 96% leased and are
located  in  the Sacramento/San Francisco Bay area (13 properties)  and  in  the
Los  Angeles  area  (six  properties).

On  February  28,  2001,  WRI purchased a 480,000-square-foot center in Orlando,
Florida.  Colonial  Plaza  Market Center is located on 46 acres on East Colonial
Drive  (Highway  50) at Bumby Avenue two miles from downtown Orlando. The center
is  anchored  by  Babies  "R"  Us,  Barnes & Noble, Circuit City, Just For Feet,
Linens  'N  Things,  Marshalls, Old Navy, Rhodes Furniture, Ross Dress For Less,
Stein  Mart  and  Staples.

B)     OTHER  ACQUISITIONS

The  aggregate  purchase  price for the acquisitions described below (the "Other
Acquisitions")  totaled $128.9 million.  The purchase price is allocated between
land  and buildings, with the buildings being depreciated over a period of forty
years.  These  purchases  were  or  will be funded under the Company's revolving
credit  facility  (average  rate of 5.50%) with the exception of $15,091 of debt
(average  interest  rate  of 8.12%) which was assumed by the Company.  Pro forma
revenue  and  expenses,  other  than  interest  and  depreciation, represent the
historical  amounts  of  the  Other  Acquisitions.

On  May  15,  we  acquired  four  supermarket-anchored  shopping  centers in the
Memphis, Tennessee market area.  Three of the centers are anchored by Kroger and
the  fourth  is  anchored  by  Seessel's  (owned  by Albertson's).  Other anchor
retailers include Walgreen Drugs and Stein Mart.   These properties total nearly
617,000  square  feet  and  were  over  92%  leased  in  the  aggregate.

On June 6, we purchased the Venice Pines Shopping Center in Venice, Florida, our
fourth  property  in  the  state  of Florida.  This 97,000 square foot center is
anchored  by  Kash  N  Karry  Supermarket  and  is  91%  leased.

On June 29, we purchased Parkway Pointe Shopping Center in Cary, North Carolina,
a  suburb of Raleigh.  Anchored by Food Lion, Eckerd Drugs and Ace Hardware, the
center  was  95%  leased  upon  acquisition.

In  August,  we  acquired the Boca Lyons Shopping Center in Boca Raton, Florida.
This center is anchored by Ross Dress for Less, Ethan Allen Furniture, Sun Trust
Bank  and  World  Savings.  This  113,000 square foot center was 94% leased upon
acquisition.






In  September,  we  purchased Winter Park Corners in Winter Park, Florida.  This
103,000  square  foot  center  is  anchored by Whole Foods and the Orange County
Courthouse  and  was  100%  leased  at  the  date  of  purchase.

On  October  18,  2001,  we purchased Oak Hill Industrial Park (I and II).  This
property  is located in southwest Austin on Industrial Oaks Blvd., just north of
I-71.  It consists of two buildings constructed in two phases, in 1982 and 1984.

On  October  25,  2001, we purchased Sunset Point Shopping Center in Clearwater,
Florida.  This  236,000  square  foot  center  is  anchored by Publix, Old Navy,
Barnes  &  Noble  and  Eckerds.

C)     PRO  FORMA  BALANCE  SHEET

The  Adjustment for Acquisitions represents the purchase price of the properties
acquired  by WRI subsequent to June 30, 2001.  Those properties include the Boca
Lyons  Shopping Center, Winter Park Corners, Oak Hill Industrial Park and Sunset
Point  Shopping Center (see Note B).  The adjustment to accumulated depreciation
is  the  additional depreciation on all properties acquired from January 1, 2001
through  the  earlier  of the date of acquisition (for those properties acquired
before June 30, 2001) or June 30, 2001 (for those properties acquired after June
30).

In  management's  opinion,  all  adjustments necessary to reflect the effects of
these transactions have been made.  This unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Statement
of  Consolidated  Income is not necessarily indicative of what actual results of
operations would have been had these transactions occurred on January 1, 2000 or
2001,  nor  does  it  purport  to represent the results of operations for future
periods.
