Explanatory Note

This current report on Form 8-K/A (the “Amendment”) is being filed as an amendment to the current report on Form 8-K filed by Acadia Realty Trust (the “Company”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 11, 2011 (the “Original 8-K”). The Original 8-K was filed to report the results of the matters submitted to a vote at the Company’s annual meeting of shareholders held on May 10, 2011 (the “Annual Meeting”). The sole purpose of this Amendment is to disclose the Company’s decision regarding how frequently it will conduct future non-binding shareholder advisory votes on the compensation of the Company’s Named Executive Officers. Except for the foregoing, this Amendment does not amend, modify or update the disclosures contained in the Original 8-K.



Item 5.07.         Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

At the Annual Meeting, the Company’s shareholders voted, on a non-binding advisory basis, on the frequency of future shareholder votes on Named Executive Officers compensation every one, two or three years. As previously reported in the Original 8-K, 30,144,282 shares voted for one year, 65,275 shares voted for two years, 6,605,181 shares voted for three years and there were 20,467 abstentions and 1,723,672 broker non-votes. In light of these voting results, the Company’s Board of Trustees, at its August 8, 2011 meeting, decided that the Company will include a non-binding shareholder advisory vote on Named Executive Officer compensation in the Company’s proxy materials every year.
