PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

General. Weingarten Realty Investors, an unincorporated trust organized
under the Texas Real Estate Investment Trust Act, and its predecessor entity
began the ownership and development of shopping centers and other commercial
real estate in 1948. WRI is self-advised and self-managed. As of December 31,
1999, we owned or operated under long-term leases interests in 239 developed
income-producing real estate projects. We owned 187 shopping centers located in
the Houston metropolitan area and in other parts of Texas and in Louisiana,
Arizona, Nevada, Arkansas, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Kansas, Colorado,
Missouri, Illinois, Florida and Maine. We also owned 50 industrial projects
located in Tennessee, Nevada and Houston, Austin and Dallas, Texas.
Additionally, we owned one multi-family residential project and one office
building, which serves, in part, as WRI's headquarters. Our interests in these
projects aggregated approximately 27.8 million square feet of building area and
104.1 million square feet of land area. We also owned interests in 31 parcels
of unimproved land under development or held for future development which
aggregated approximately 8.2 million square feet.

WRI currently employs 203 persons and its principal executive offices are
located at 2600 Citadel Plaza Drive, Houston, Texas 77008, and its phone number
is (713) 866-6000.

Location of Properties. Historically, WRI has emphasized investments in
properties located primarily in the Houston area. Since 1987, we actively
acquired properties outside of Houston. Of our 270 properties which were owned
or operated under long-term leases as of December 31, 1999, 100 of our 239
developed properties and 14 of our 31 parcels of unimproved land were located in
the Houston metropolitan area. In addition to these properties, we owned 79
developed properties and eight parcels of unimproved land located in other parts
of Texas. Because of our investments in the Houston area, as well as in other
parts of Texas, the Houston and Texas economies affect, to some degree, the
business and operations of WRI.

In 1999, the economies of Houston and Texas continued to grow, albeit at a
slower pace than 1998, but still exceeding the national average; the economy of
the entire southwestern United States, where WRI has its primary operations,
also remained strong relative to the national average. The Houston economy,
because of its strengths in energy and engineering and construction, has become
much more integrated into the international economy and is somewhat affected by
the international climate. Thus, while Houston's expansion slowed in 1999, it
is expected to continue to expand in 2000 and beyond. A deterioration in the
Houston or Texas economies could adversely affect WRI. However, WRI's centers
are generally anchored by grocery and drug stores under long-term leases, and
these types of stores, which deal in basic necessity-type items, tend to be less
affected by economic change.

Competition. There are other developers and owner-operators engaged in the
development, acquisition and operation of shopping centers and commercial
property who compete with us in our trade areas. This results in competition
for both acquisitions of existing income-producing properties and also for prime
development sites. There is also competition for tenants to occupy the space
that WRI and its competitors develop, acquire and manage.

We believe that the principal competitive factors in attracting tenants in
our market areas are location, price, anchor tenants and maintenance of
properties. We also believe that our competitive advantages include the
favorable locations of our properties, our ability to provide a retailer with
multiple locations with anchor tenants in the Houston area and the practice of
continuous maintenance and renovation of our properties.

Financial Information. Additional financial information concerning WRI is
included in the Consolidated Financial Statements located on pages 22 through 38
herein.

locations in fourteen states. A complete listing of these properties, including

General. In 1999, no single property accounted for more than 2.9% of WRI's
total assets or 2.6% of gross revenues. Four properties, in the aggregate,
represented approximately 9.27% of our gross revenues for the year ended
December 31, 1999; otherwise, none of the remaining properties accounted for
more than 1.9% of our gross revenues during the same period. The weighted
average occupancy rate for all of our improved properties as of December 31,
1999 was 91.3%.

Substantially all of our properties are owned directly by WRI (subject in
some cases to mortgages), although our interests in some properties are held
indirectly through interests in joint ventures or under long-term leases. In
our opinion, our properties are well maintained and in good repair, suitable for
their intended uses, and adequately covered by insurance.

Shopping Centers. As of December 31, 1999, WRI owned or operated under
long-term leases, either directly or through its interests in joint ventures,
187 shopping centers with approximately 21.1 million square feet of building
area. The shopping centers were located predominantly in Texas with other
locations in Louisiana, Arizona, Nevada, Arkansas, New Mexico, Oklahoma,
Tennessee, Kansas, Colorado, Missouri, Illinois, Florida and Maine.

WRI's shopping centers are primarily community shopping centers which range
in size from 100,000 to 400,000 square feet, as distinguished from small strip
centers which generally contain 5,000 to 25,000 square feet and from large
regional enclosed malls which generally contain over 500,000 square feet. Most
of the centers do not have climatized common areas but are designed to allow
retail customers to park their automobiles in close proximity to any retailer in
the center. Our centers are customarily constructed of masonry, steel and glass
and all have lighted, paved parking areas which are typically landscaped with
berms, trees and shrubs. They are generally located at major intersections in
close proximity to neighborhoods which have existing populations sufficient to
support retail activities of the types conducted in our centers.

We have approximately 4,200 separate leases with 3,300 different tenants,
including national and regional supermarket chains, drug stores, discount
department stores, junior department stores, other nationally or regionally
known stores and a great variety of other regional and local retailers. The
large number of locations offered by WRI and the types of traditional anchor
tenants help attract prospective new tenants. Some of the national and regional
supermarket chains which are tenants in our centers include Albertson's, Fiesta,
Smith's, H.E.B., Kroger Company, Randall's Food Markets, Fry's Food Stores and
Safeway. In addition to these supermarket chains, WRI's nationally and
regionally known retail store tenants include Eckerd, Walgreen and Osco
drugstores; Kmart discount stores; Bealls, Palais Royal and Weiner's junior
department stores; Marshall's, Office Depot, Office Max, Babies 'R' Us, Ross,
Stein Mart and T.J. Maxx off-price specialty stores; Luby's, Piccadilly and
Furr's cafeterias; Academy sporting goods; FAO Schwarz toy store; Cost Plus
Imports; Linens 'N Things; Barnes & Noble bookstore; Home Depot; CompUSA; and
the following restaurant chains: Arby's, Burger King, Champ's, Church's Fried
Chicken, Dairy Queen, Domino's, Jack-in-the-Box, CiCi Pizza, Long John Silver's,
McDonald's, Olive Garden, Outback Steakhouse, Pizza Hut, Shoney's, Steak & Ale,
Taco Bell and Whataburger. We also lease space in 3,000 to 10,000 square foot
areas to national chains such as the Limited Store, The Gap, One Price Stores,
Eddie Bauer and Radio Shack.

WRI's shopping center leases have lease terms generally ranging from three
to five years for tenant space under 5,000 square feet and from 10 to 35 years
for tenant space over 10,000 square feet. Leases with primary lease terms in
excess of 10 years, generally for anchor and out-parcels, frequently contain
renewal options which allow the tenant to extend the term of the lease for one
or more additional periods, with each of these periods generally being of a
shorter duration than the primary lease term. The rental rates paid during a
renewal period are generally based upon the rental rate for the primary term,
sometimes adjusted for inflation or for the amount of the tenant's sales during
the primary term.

Most of our leases provide for the monthly payment in advance of fixed
minimum rentals, the tenants' pro rata share of ad valorem taxes, insurance
(including fire and extended coverage, rent insurance and liability insurance)
and common area maintenance for the center (based on estimates of the costs for
these items). They also provide for the payment of additional rentals based on
a percentage of the tenants' sales. Utilities are generally paid directly



by tenants except where common metering exists with respect to a center. In
this case, WRI makes the payments for the utilities and is reimbursed
by the tenants on a monthly basis. Generally, our leases prohibit the
tenant from assigning or subletting its space. They also require the tenant
to use its space for the purpose designated in its lease agreement and to
operate its business on a continuous basis. Some of the lease agreements with
major tenants contain modifications of these basic provisions in view of the
financial condition, stability or desirability of those tenants. Where a tenant
is granted the right to assign its space, the lease agreement generally provides
that the original lessee will remain liable for the payment of the lease
obligations under that lease agreement.

During 1999, we added approximately 2.8 million square feet to our
portfolio of properties through acquisitions and another .4 million square feet
of space through development. Regarding the retail portfolio, we purchased
three anchored shopping centers in Texas, a supermarket-anchored retail center
in Florida and a building adjacent to one of our shopping centers in Houston,
Texas. We also purchased our joint venture partner's 77% interest in a shopping
center in Santa Fe, New Mexico and executed a lease on a retail center in
Ballwin, Missouri, a suburb of St. Louis. These transactions increased our
retail portfolio by 1.4 million square feet of building area and represent an
investment of $107.3 million.

With respect to new development, construction was completed on .1 million
square feet of retail space. WRI currently has seven retail centers under
development and has investments in three additional retail centers in joint
ventures with our Denver-based development partner.

Industrial Properties. At December 31, 1999, WRI owned a total of 50
industrial projects. During 1999, we purchased twelve facilities, including
seven facilities in the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex and our first industrial
project in Las Vegas, Nevada. We also acquired three buildings in Austin, Texas,
and one facility in Houston, Texas. These projects added 1.4 million square
feet to the industrial portfolio and represent an investment of $43.2 million.

During 1999, WRI completed the development of one 52,500 square foot
building of a three-building office/service facility in Houston, Texas. The
remaining two buildings are currently under development.

In December 1999, WRI sold seven industrial properties totaling 2.0 million
square feet of building area to a joint venture in which we retained a 20%
ownership interest, with the other 80% purchased by American National Insurance
Company.

Office Building. We own a seven-story, 121,000 square foot masonry office
building with a detached, covered, three-level parking garage situated on
171,000 square feet of land fronting on North Loop 610 West in Houston. The
building serves as our headquarters. Other than WRI, the major tenant of the
building is Bank of America, which currently occupies 9% of the office space.

Multi-family Residential Properties. WRI completed development of a
260-unit luxury apartment complex within a multi-use master-planned project we
developed in a suburb north of Houston. An unrelated Houston-based multi-family
operator manages the property on our behalf.

Unimproved Land. At December 31, 1999, WRI owned, directly or through its
interest in a joint venture, 31 parcels of unimproved land aggregating
approximately 8.2 million square feet of land area located in Texas, Louisiana,
Arizona, Colorado and Illinois. These properties include approximately 2.6
million square feet of land adjacent to certain of our existing developed
properties, which may be used for expansion of these developments, as well as
approximately 5.6 million square feet of land, which may be used for new
development. Almost all of these unimproved properties are served by roads and
utilities and are ready for development. Most of these parcels are suitable for
development as shopping centers or industrial projects, and WRI intends to
emphasize the development of these parcels for such purpose.

In December 1999, WRI and WRI Holdings, Inc., an affiliated company, sold
28.5 acres and 102.6 acres, respectively, of undeveloped land to American
National Insurance Company with WRI retaining the right to co-develop this land
with American National.

its properties are subject.

ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SHAREHOLDERS

None.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements and notes thereto and the comparative summary of selected
financial data appearing elsewhere in this report. Historical results and
trends which might appear should not be taken as indicative of future
operations.

Weingarten Realty Investors owned or operated under long-term leases 187
shopping centers, 50 industrial properties, one multi-family residential project
and one office building at December 31, 1999. Of our 239 developed properties,
179 are located in Texas (including 100 in Houston and Harris County). Our
remaining properties are located in Louisiana (11), Arizona (11), Nevada (8),
Arkansas (6), New Mexico (5), Oklahoma (4), Tennessee (4), Kansas (3), Colorado
(3), Missouri (2), Illinois (1), Florida (1) and Maine (1). WRI has nearly
4,200 leases and 3,300 different tenants. Leases for our properties range from
less than a year for smaller spaces to over 25 years for larger tenants; leases
generally include minimum lease payments and contingent rentals for payment of
taxes, insurance and maintenance and for an amount based on a percentage of the
tenants' sales. The majority of our anchor tenants are supermarkets,
drugstores, value-oriented apparel and discount stores and other retailers,
which generally sell basic necessity-type items.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

WRI anticipates that cash flows from operating activities will continue to
provide adequate capital for all dividend payments in accordance with REIT
requirements. Cash on hand, internally-generated cash flow, borrowings under
our existing credit facilities, issuance of unsecured debt and the use of
project financing, as well as other debt and equity alternatives, will provide
the necessary capital to achieve growth. Cash flow from operating activities as
reported in the Statements of Consolidated Cash Flows increased to $118.5
million for 1999 from $97.5 million for 1998 and $89.9 million for 1997.

Common and preferred dividends increased to $95.4 million in 1999, compared to
$77.3 million in 1998 and $68.2 million in 1997. WRI satisfied its REIT
requirement of distributing at least 95% of ordinary taxable income for each of
the three years ended December 31, 1999, and, accordingly, federal income taxes
were not required to be paid in these years. Our dividend payout ratio on
common equity for 1999, 1998 and 1997 approximated 71.9%, 74.4% and 76.4%,
respectively, based on funds from operations for the applicable year.

WRI invested $150.5 million in acquisitions in 1999, adding 2.8 million square
feet to its portfolio of properties. Regarding the retail portfolio, we
purchased three anchored shopping centers in Texas, a supermarket-anchored
retail center in Florida and a building adjacent to one of our shopping centers
in Houston, Texas. We also purchased our joint venture partner's 77% interest
in a shopping center in Santa Fe, New Mexico and executed a lease on a retail
center in Ballwin, Missouri, a suburb of St. Louis. These transactions
increased our retail portfolio by 1.4 million square feet of building area and
represent an investment of $107.3 million.

WRI currently owns a total of 50 industrial projects. During 1999, we purchased
twelve properties, including seven facilities in the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex
and our first industrial project in Las Vegas, Nevada. We also acquired three
buildings in Austin, Texas, and one facility in Houston, Texas. These projects
added 1.4 million square feet to the industrial portfolio and represent an
investment of $43.2 million. In December 1999, we sold seven industrial
properties totaling 2.0 million square feet to a joint venture in which we
retained 20% ownership, with the remainder owned by American National Insurance
Company. Additionally, American National purchased 131 acres of undeveloped
land in our Railwood Industrial Park. WRI retained the right to co-develop this
land with American National. WRI owned 28.5 acres of this land and WRI
Holdings, Inc., an affiliated entity, owned 102.6 acres. The proceeds of $8.1
million received by WRI Holdings were remitted to WRI in payment of mortgage
bonds and notes. Including the payment received from WRI Holdings, these
transactions provided WRI with $21 million of cash and a six-month $33 million
note receivable from American National. We have retained the leasing and
management of the properties and also contracted to lease and manage an
additional 1.4 million square feet of Houston industrial properties owned by
American National.

With respect to new development, construction was completed on retail and
industrial space totaling .2 million square feet. An additional .2 million
square feet was added with the completion of a 260-unit luxury apartment complex
within a multi-use master-planned project WRI developed in a suburb north of
Houston. WRI currently has several other facilities under development,
including seven retail centers, an industrial office/service center and three
additional retail centers in joint ventures with our Denver-based development
partner. The projects under construction or completed in 1999 represent an
estimated investment by WRI of approximately $77 million and will add .9
million square feet to our portfolio.




Additionally, WRI has an ongoing program for maintaining and renovating its
existing portfolio of properties. Capitalized expenditures for acquisitions,
new development and additions to the existing portfolio were, in millions,
$224.3, $176.5 and $152.6 during 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. All of the
acquisitions and new development during 1999 were either initially financed
under WRI's revolving credit facility, funded with excess cash balances or
funded with excess cash flow from our existing portfolio of properties.

In January 1999, we issued $115 million of 7.0% Series C cumulative redeemable
preferred shares with a liquidation preference of $50 per share and no stated
maturity. We can elect to redeem these shares anytime after March 15, 2004.
The Series C preferred shares are redeemable by the holder only upon their death
and are also redeemable in either cash or common shares at WRI's option. There
are limitations on the number of shares per shareholder and in the aggregate
that may be redeemed per year. The proceeds of this offering were used to pay
down all amounts outstanding under our revolving credit facilities and retire
$82 million of variable-rate, unsecured medium term notes, resulting in an
extraordinary loss of $.2 million. Any redemption of preferred shares initiated
by WRI must be funded with proceeds from an offering of additional common or
preferred shares.

In July 1999, WRI issued $20 million of ten-year 7.35% fixed-rate, unsecured
medium term notes. Including the effect of a loss of $1.2 million on the sale
of Treasury locks, which were designated as a hedge against future issuance of
fixed-rate notes, the effective interest rate is 8.0%.

In January 2000, WRI issued $10.5 million of ten-year 8.25% fixed-rate,
unsecured medium term notes. In connection with this debt issuance, we entered
into a ten-year interest rate swap agreement with a notional amount of $10.5
million to swap 8.25% fixed-rate interest for floating-rate interest.

WRI has a $200 million unsecured revolving credit facility which expires in
November of 2000. WRI has an annual option to request a one-year extension of
the commitment. Upon expiration, we have an option to convert amounts
outstanding under the facility to a term loan payable over a two-year period.
Additionally, WRI has an unsecured and uncommitted overnight credit facility
totaling $20 million to be used for cash management purposes. WRI will maintain
adequate funds available under the $200 million revolving credit facility at all
times to cover the outstanding balance under the $20 million facility. WRI has
three interest rate swap contracts with an aggregate notional amount of $40
million which fix interest rates on variable-rate debt at 8.1% and expire
through 2004.

Subsequent to year-end, WRI finalized an additional $100 million revolving
credit agreement with a major bank. This one-year facility became effective on
March 1, 2000 and is renewable at our option for an additional two-year period.
We also filed a new $400 million shelf registration statement in August of this
year, all of which was available at year-end.

Total debt outstanding increased to $594.2 million at December 31, 1999 from
$516.4 million at December 31, 1998, primarily to fund acquisitions and new
development. WRI will continue to closely monitor both the debt and equity
markets and carefully consider its available alternatives, including both public
and private placements.

FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS

Industry analysts generally consider funds from operations to be an appropriate
measure of the performance of an equity REIT since such measure does not
recognize depreciation and amortization of real estate assets as operating
expenses. Management believes that reductions for these charges are not
meaningful in evaluating income-producing real estate, which historically has
not depreciated. The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts
defines funds from operations as net income plus depreciation and amortization
of real estate assets, less gains and losses on sales of properties. Funds from
operations does not represent cash flows from operations as defined by generally
accepted accounting principles and should not be considered as an alternative to
net income as an indicator of WRI's operating performance or to cash flows as a
measure of liquidity.

Funds from operations increased to $105.4 million in 1999, as compared to $96.6
million in 1998 and $89.2 million in 1997. These increases relate primarily to
the impact of WRI's acquisitions, new developments and activity at its existing
properties. For further information on changes between years, see "Results of
Operations" below.




RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Rental revenues increased 15.7%, or $30.6 million, from $194.6 million in 1998
to $225.2 million in 1999 and by 15.1%, or $25.6 million, from $169.0 million in
1997. Of these increases, property acquisitions and new development contributed
$24.8 million in 1999 and $18.4 million in 1998. The remaining portion of these
increases is due to activity at our existing properties. Occupancy of our
shopping centers, industrial properties and total portfolio decreased to 91% at
December 31, 1999 from 93% at the end of 1998. This is primarily the result of
the loss of certain large tenants in the latter half of the year. Among the
larger losses were Builders Square, which occupied a 105,000 square foot space
in Corpus Christi, Texas, a 91,500 square foot Kmart in Houston, Texas, a 63,000
square foot Service Merchandise in Lake Charles, Louisiana and a 60,000 square
foot Pay & Save in Lubbock, Texas. In 1999, we completed 894 renewals or new
leases comprising 4.8 million square feet at an average rental rate increase of
9.5%. Net of the amortized portion of capital costs for tenant improvements,
the increase averaged 5.9%. Occupancy of our total portfolio increased to 93% at
December 31, 1998 from 92% at the end of 1997. In 1998, we completed 830
renewals or new leases comprising 3.4 million square feet at an average rental
rate increase of 5.8%. Net of the amortized portion of capital costs for tenant
improvements, the increase averaged 3.2%.

Interest income totaled $3.1 million in 1999, $2.1 million in 1998 and $2.5
million in 1997. The increase in income in 1999 is due to the funding of loans
to our joint venture partners. The decrease from 1997 to 1998 was due to the
sale of $12.2 million of marketable debt securities during the first quarter of
1998.

Equity in earnings of real estate joint ventures and partnerships totaled $.2
million in 1999, $.3 million in 1998 and $1.0 million in 1997. The decrease in
1999 and 1998 is due to the purchase at December 31, 1997 of our joint venture
partner's 85% interest in four shopping centers and the purchase of our joint
venture partner's 77% interest in a shopping center in July 1999.

Direct costs and expenses of operating our properties (i.e., operating and ad
valorem tax expenses) increased to $64.4 million in 1999 from $54.8 million in
1998 and $49.2 million in 1997. These increases are primarily due to property
acquired and developed during these periods. Overall, direct operating costs
and expenses as a percentage of rental revenues were 29% in 1999, 28% in 1998
and 29% in 1997. Depreciation and amortization have increased to $49.6 million
in 1999 from $41.9 million in 1998 and $38.0 million in 1997, also as a result
of the properties acquired and developed during these periods. General and
administrative expense has increased to $7.5 million in 1999 from $7.1 million
in 1998 and $5.6 million in 1997. The increase in 1998 results primarily from
the adoption of a new Emerging Issues Task Force consensus decision which
required that internal costs of identifying and acquiring operating property
incurred subsequent to March 19, 1998 be expensed. WRI realized an increase in
expense of $1.1 million in 1998 due to the adoption of this standard. The
remainder of the increase in 1998 and the majority of the increase in 1999 are
due to normal compensation increases as well as slight increases in staffing.

Gross interest costs, before capitalization of interest to development projects,
increased from $35.0 million in 1998 to $35.9 million in 1999. This increase in
interest cost was due mainly to an increase in the average debt outstanding from
$492.2 million for 1998 to $501.6 million for 1999. The weighted-average
interest rate increased from 7.11% in 1998 to 7.15% in 1999. Interest expense,
net of amounts capitalized, decreased $.5 million from 1998. The amount of
interest capitalized increased to $2.7 million in 1999 from $1.4 million in 1998
due to an increase in the amount of development activity during the year.
Comparing 1998 to 1997, gross interest costs increased from $30.8 million in
1997 to $35.0 million in 1998. This was due to an increase in the average debt
outstanding from $422.9 million in 1997 to $492.2 million in 1998. The
weighted-average interest rate decreased between the two periods from 7.27% in
1997 to 7.11% in 1998. Interest expense, net of amounts capitalized, increased
$3.6 million from 1997. The amount of interest capitalized increased by $.6
million in 1998 due to an increase in the amount of development activity during
the year. Included in interest expense during 1997 was $.7 million related to
repurchase agreements collateralized by our investment in marketable debt
securities which were sold during the first quarter of 1998.

The gain on sale of $20.6 million in 1999 was due primarily to the sale of 28.5
acres of undeveloped land and an 80% interest in certain industrial properties
to American National Insurance Company.




EFFECTS OF INFLATION

The rate of inflation was relatively unchanged in 1999. WRI has structured its
leases, however, in such a way as to remain largely unaffected should
significant inflation occur. Most of the leases contain percentage rent
provisions whereby WRI receives rentals based on the tenants' gross sales. Many
leases provide for increasing minimum rentals during the terms of the leases
through escalation provisions. In addition, many of WRI's leases are for terms
of less than ten years, which allows WRI to adjust rental rates to changing
market conditions when the leases expire. Most of WRI's leases require the
tenants to pay their proportionate share of operating expenses and ad valorem
taxes. As a result of these lease provisions, increases due to inflation, as
well as ad valorem tax rate increases, generally do not have a significant
adverse effect upon WRI's operating results.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 1998, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting
for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" was issued. This statement
requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or
liabilities and measure the instruments at fair value. The accounting for
changes in fair value of a derivative depends upon its intended use. WRI will
adopt the provisions of this statement in the first quarter of fiscal year 2001.
WRI is still evaluating the effects of adopting this statement, however, we do
not expect the impact to be material to our operating results or our financial
position.

In December 1999, the SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, "Revenue
Recognition in Financial Statements" was issued. This bulletin requires that
revenue based on a percentage of tenants' sales be recognized only after the
tenant exceeds their sales breakpoint. Implementation of this bulletin is
expected to reduce revenue by $.6 million in 2000.

YEAR 2000

Based on a review of our mission critical and non-mission critical software and
hardware, we concluded that our company's systems were Year 2000 compliant. No
significant problems related to the Year 2000 were experienced or are expected
in the future. Our major tenants, financial institutions and utility companies
represented to us that they also were Year 2000 compliant. While we have not
been affected by any Year 2000 issues experienced by these third parties, we
have no guarantee that these third-party systems will continue to operate as
represented.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Annual Report includes certain forward-looking statements reflecting WRI's
expectations in the near term that involve a number of risks and uncertainties;
however, many factors may materially affect the actual results, including demand
for our properties, changes in rental and occupancy rates, changes in property
operating costs, interest rate fluctuations, and changes in local and general
economic conditions. Accordingly, there is no assurance that WRI's expectations
will be realized.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

WRI uses fixed and floating-rate debt to finance its capital requirements.
These transactions expose WRI to market risk related to changes in interest
rates. Derivative financial instruments are used to manage a portion of this
risk. We do not engage in the trading of derivative financial instruments in
the normal course of business. During 1998, we entered into and settled three
forward Treasury lock agreements with a total notional amount of $85 million as
a hedge against potential changes in interest rates of prospective issuances of
fixed-rate debt. Amounts paid or received upon settlement of these contracts
are deferred and amortized as an adjustment to interest expense over the life of
the fixed-rate debt. At December 31, 1999, WRI had fixed-rate debt of $499.9
million and variable-rate debt of $94.3 million, after adjusting for the effect
of interest rate swaps. We also had variable-rate notes receivable totaling
$44.8 million at year-end. In the event that interest rates were to increase
100 basis points, the fair value of fixed-rate debt would decrease by $21.8
million and net income, funds from operations and future cash flows would
decrease $.5 million based upon the variable-rate debt and notes receivable
outstanding at December 31, 1999.




ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA



INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

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

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Weingarten
Realty Investors (the "Company") as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the
related statements of consolidated income, shareholders' equity, and cash flows
for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1999. Our audits
also included the financial statement schedules listed in the Index at Item 14.
These financial statements and financial statement schedules are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on the financial statements and financial statement schedules based on
our audits.

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

In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Weingarten Realty Investors at
December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the results of its operations and its cash flows
for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1999 in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, such
financial statement schedules, when considered in relation to the basic
consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly in all
material respects the information set forth therein.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Business
Weingarten Realty Investors, a Texas real estate investment trust, is engaged in
the acquisition, development and management of real estate, primarily anchored
neighborhood and community shopping centers and, to a lesser extent, industrial
properties. Over 74% of WRI's properties are located in Texas, with the
remainder located primarily throughout the southwestern part of the United
States. WRI's major tenants include supermarkets, drugstores and other
retailers who generally sell basic necessity-type commodities. WRI currently
operates and intends to operate in the future as a real estate investment trust.

Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of WRI, its
subsidiaries and its interest in joint ventures and partnerships over which WRI
exercises control. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have
been eliminated. Investments in less than 50%-owned joint ventures and
partnerships where WRI does not exercise control are accounted for using the
equity method.

Revenue Recognition
Rental revenue is generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the life of
the lease. Revenue from tenant reimbursements of taxes, maintenance expenses
and insurance is recognized in the period the related expense is recorded.

Revenue based on a percentage of tenants' sales is estimated and accrued ratably
over the year. Beginning January 1, 2000, such revenue will be recognized only
after the tenant exceeds their sales breakpoint, in accordance with the SEC
Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial
Statements." Implementation of this bulletin is expected to reduce revenue by
$.6 million in 2000.

Property
Real estate assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation, which, in
the opinion of management, is not in excess of the individual property's
estimated undiscounted future cash flows, including estimated proceeds from
disposition. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method, generally
over estimated useful lives of 18-50 years for buildings and 10-20 years for
parking lot surfacing and equipment. Major replacements are capitalized and the
replaced asset and corresponding accumulated depreciation are removed from the
accounts. All other maintenance and repair items are charged to expense as
incurred.

Capitalization
Carrying charges, principally interest and ad valorem taxes, on land under
development and buildings under construction are capitalized as part of land
under development and buildings and improvements.

WRI had also capitalized the direct internal costs of identifying and acquiring
operating property. In March 1998, the Emerging Issues Task Force of the
Financial Accounting Standards Board reached a consensus decision on Issue No.
97-11, "Accounting for Internal Costs Relating to Real Estate Property
Acquisitions." This consensus requires that internal costs of identifying and
acquiring operating property incurred subsequent to March 19, 1998 be expensed.
Such amounts capitalized totaled $.2 million and $1.1 million in 1998 and 1997,
respectively.

Deferred Charges
Debt and lease costs are amortized primarily on a straight-line basis over the
terms of the debt and over the lives of leases, respectively.

Marketable Debt Securities
WRI's investment in marketable securities is classified as "available for sale."
The securities are carried at market with any unrealized gains or losses
included as a component of shareholders' equity.



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

Per Share Data
Net income per common share - basic is computed using net income available to
common shareholders and the weighted average shares outstanding. Net income per
common share - diluted includes the effect of potentially dilutive securities
for the periods indicated, as follows (in thousands):

Options to purchase 550,200, 13,200 and 800 common shares in 1999, 1998 and
1997, respectively, were not included in the calculation of net income per
common share - diluted as the exercise prices were greater than the average
market price for the year.

Statements of Cash Flows
WRI considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three
months or less as cash equivalents. WRI issued .1 million common shares of
beneficial interest in 1997 valued at $.2 million in connection with purchases
of property. We assumed debt and/or capital lease obligations totaling $39.1
million, $6.7 million and $17.3 million in connection with purchases of property
during 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. We issued limited partnership
interests in exchange for property valued at $4.0 million and $1.7 million in
1998 and 1997, respectively. In connection with the sale of improved properties
in 1999, we received notes receivable totaling $33.1 million.

Comprehensive Income
WRI adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting
Comprehensive Income" in 1998. Net income differs from comprehensive income by
less than $50,000 in each year presented.

Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications of prior years' amounts have been made to conform with
the current year presentation, including the classification of "accumulated
dividends in excess of net income" as a separate caption on the Consolidated
Balance Sheets.

WRI has an unsecured $200 million revolving credit agreement with a syndicate of
banks. The agreement expires in November 2000, but WRI has an annual option to
request a one-year extension of the agreement. All members of the bank
syndicate must agree to the requested extension or the agreement expires on the
scheduled date, at which time WRI has the option to convert all amounts
outstanding under the credit agreement to a term loan payable over a two-year
period. We also have an agreement for an unsecured and uncommitted overnight
credit facility totaling $20 million with a bank to be used for cash management
purposes. We will maintain adequate funds available under our revolving credit
facilities at all times to cover the outstanding balance under the $20 million
facility. WRI also has letters of credit totaling $16.0 million outstanding
under the $200 million revolving credit facility at December 31, 1999. The
revolving credit agreements are subject to normal banking terms and conditions
and do not adversely restrict our operations or liquidity. Subsequent to
year-end, we finalized an additional $100 million revolving credit agreement
with a bank which became effective March 1, 2000. This one-year facility is
renewable at our option for an additional two-year period.

At December 31, 1999, the variable interest rate for notes payable under the $20
million revolving credit agreement was 5.3%. During 1999, the maximum balance
and weighted average balance outstanding under both credit facilities were
$114.0 million and $53.2 million, respectively, at an average interest rate of
6.0%. WRI made cash payments for interest on debt, net of amounts capitalized,
of $32.3 million in 1999, $32.6 million in 1998 and $27.4 million in 1997.

Various leases and properties and current and future rentals from those leases
and properties collateralize certain debt. At December 31, 1999 and 1998, the
carrying value of such property aggregated $174 million and $177 million,
respectively.

WRI has three interest rate swap contracts with an aggregate notional amount of
$40 million. Such contracts, which expire through 2004, have been outstanding
since their purchase in 1992. We intend to hold such contracts through their
expiration date and to use them as a means of managing interest rate risk by
fixing the interest rate on a portion of our variable-rate debt. The interest
rate swaps have an effective interest rate of 8.1%. The difference between the
interest received and paid on the interest rate swaps is recognized as interest
expense as incurred. The interest rate swaps increased interest expense and
decreased net income by $1.0 million in 1999 and $.9 million in both 1998 and
1997. The interest rate swaps increased the average interest rate for our debt
by .2% for 1999, 1998 and 1997. WRI could be exposed to credit losses in the
event of non-performance by the counterparty; however, the likelihood of such
non-performance is remote.

In February 1999, WRI retired $82 million of variable-rate, unsecured medium
term notes resulting in an extra-ordinary charge to earnings of $.2 million. In
July 1999, we issued $20 million of ten-year 7.35% fixed-rate, unsecured medium
term notes. Including the effect of a loss of $1.2 million on the sale of
Treasury locks which were designated as a hedge against future issuance of
fixed-rate notes, the effective interest rate is 8.0%.




WRI's debt can be summarized as follows (in thousands):

Scheduled principal payments on our debt (excluding $114.0 million potentially
due under our revolving credit agreements and $36 million of capital leases) are
due during the following years (in thousands):





2000. . . . . . . . . $ 32,480
2001. . . . . . . . . 30,152

2005 through 2009 . . 237,769
2010 through 2014 . . 29,345
Thereafter. . . . . . 936



In the event our $200 million revolving credit agreement expires in November
2000 and we elect to convert amounts outstanding under the revolver at that time
to a term loan, such amounts would be payable as follows; 50% in 2001 and 50% in
2002.

Various debt agreements contain restrictive covenants, the most restrictive of
which requires WRI to produce annual consolidated distributable cash flow, as
defined by the agreements, of not less than 250% of interest payments, to limit
total debt to no more than 60% of total assets (as defined) and to maintain
uncollateralized assets equal to at least 150% of unsecured debt. Management
believes that WRI is in compliance with all restrictive covenants.

In the third quarter of 1999, WRI filed a $400 mi
