FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE


                 ISS RECOMMENDS RECKSON SHAREHOLDERS VOTE "FOR"

                   PROPOSED MERGER WITH SL GREEN REALTY CORP.

(UNIONDALE, NEW YORK, NOVEMBER 10, 2006) - RECKSON ASSOCIATES REALTY CORP.
(NYSE: RA) today announced that Institutional Shareholder Services (ISS), one of
the nation's leading independent proxy advisory services, recommended that
Reckson shareholders vote "FOR" the proposed merger with SL Green Realty Corp.
(NYSE: SLG) at Reckson's November 22, 2006 special meeting of shareholders. ISS
provides voting advice to hundreds of institutional investors, mutual and
pension funds, money managers and other fiduciaries.

In recommending that Reckson shareholders vote "FOR" the proposed merger with SL
Green, ISS stated in their November 9, 2006 report that:

         --"On balance, we believe that this transaction warrants shareholder
         support."

In support of its conclusion, ISS noted the following: the competitive bidding
process leading up to the transaction, the transaction's unanimous approval by
an independent special committee of Reckson's Board, that SL Green was
incentivized to accept the highest possible bid for the sale of the non-core
assets to a management-led investor group, and that there was an auction process
under which the non-core assets were "re-shopped" to the auction participants.
ISS also noted that if shareholders reject the proposed merger, it was unlikely
that the company's share price would continue to trade at levels near the merger
consideration.


"We are pleased that, after a thorough analysis, ISS is recommending that
Reckson shareholders vote to support the Company's combination with SL Green,"
said Scott Rechler, Chief Executive Officer of Reckson. "We fully agree with ISS
that this transaction warrants shareholder support and urge Reckson shareholders
to vote 'FOR' the proposed SL Green merger promptly."

Reckson's Board of Directors recommends shareholders to VOTE TODAY FOR THE
PROPOSED MERGER, after reading the definitive proxy materials and other relevant
documents filed with the SEC which contain important information about Reckson
and the





proposed transaction. Shareholders may vote their shares by telephone,
via the internet or by signing, dating and returning the proxy card in the
envelope provided that they recently received in the mail. Shareholders are
advised that if they have any questions or need any assistance in voting their
shares, they should contact Reckson's proxy solicitor, Innisfree M&A
Incorporated, by telephone toll-free at 1-888-750-5834.

Reckson is a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust
(REIT) specializing in the acquisition, leasing, financing, management and
development of Class A office properties.

Reckson is one of the largest publicly traded owners, managers and developers of
Class A office properties in the New York Tri-State area and wholly owns, or has
