Item 1.   Security and Issuer

        This statement on Schedule 13D (this "Statement") relates to shares of
common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Shares"), of Reckson Associates
Realty Corp. (the "Issuer"). The Issuer has its principal executive offices at
625 Reckson Plaza, Uniondale, New York 11556..

Item 2.   Identity and Background

(a)     This Statement is being filed by Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. ("DBSI")
and Deutsche Bank AG ("Deutsche Bank", together with DBSI, the "Reporting
Persons" and each, a "Reporting Person"). A joint filing agreement has been
filed as Exhibit 1 to this Statement pursuant to Rule 13d-1(k) promulgated under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act").

        DBSI is a corporation organized under the laws of Delaware, and is a
wholly-owned subsidiary of DB US Financial Markets Holding Corporation
("DBUSFM"). DBUSFM is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Deutsche Bank Americas
Holding Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Taunus Corporation, which in
turn is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Deutsche Bank. Deutsche Bank is organized
under the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany. The securities acquired by
Deutsche Bank covered by this Statement were acquired through the London Branch
of Deutsche Bank, which is licensed by the United Kingdom banking authority.

(b)     The address of the principal place of business of Deutsche Bank is
Taunusanlage 12, 60325 Frankfurt, Federal Republic of Germany. The address of
the principal office of DBSI is 60 Wall Street, New York, New York 10005.

(c) and (f)     The principal business of the Reporting Persons and the name,
business address, principal occupation or employment and citizenship of each of
the executive officers, directors, controlling persons and trustees, as
applicable of each of the Reporting Persons and each corporation and other
person ultimately in control of the Reporting Persons are set forth on Schedule
1 to this Statement which is incorporated herein.

        Set forth on Schedule 1 to this Statement, and incorporated herein by
reference, is a list of the executive officers and directors of each of Deutsche
Bank and DBSI that contain the following information with respect to each such
person: (i) name; (ii) business address; (iii) present principal occupation or
employment and the name and business address of each corporation or organization
in which each such employment is conducted; and (iv) citizenship.

(d) and (e)     During the last five years, none of the Reporting Persons and,
to the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, none of the persons named on
Schedule 1 to this Statement has been convicted in a criminal proceeding
(excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or has been a party to a
civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction
as a result of which such person was or is subject to a judgment, decree or
final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating
activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation
with respect to such laws.

Item 3.    Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

        The source of the funds for the purchase of the Shares was working
capital of the Reporting Persons.

Item 4.    Purpose of Transaction

        All of the Shares reported herein as having been acquired or disposed of
were from the accounts of Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch and DBSI and were
acquired or disposed of as part of their proprietary trading activities or in
order to hedge its exposure to certain derivative contracts entered into with
its clients.

        On October 30, 2006 the total number of Shares that may have been deemed
beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons exceeded 5% of the total number of
Shares outstanding.  The Reporting Persons qualify as institutions that may
file securities ownership reports required by the Securities Exchange Act on
Schedule 13G. The Issuer entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as
of August 3, 2006, by and between the Issuer and SL Green
Realty Corp.  Deutsche Bank acquired Shares held in an arbitrage account
subsequent to the announcement of the merger  As a result, under interpretations
of the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission, Deutsche Bank may be
deemed to have purchased the Shares with the purpose of, or with the effect of,
changing or influencing control of the Issuer, in connection with the proposed
merger and the Reporting Persons are therefore filing this report on Schedule
13D.

        The Reporting Persons reserve the right to acquire, or cause to be
acquired, additional securities of the Issuer or derivatives or other
instruments related thereto, to dispose of, or cause to be disposed, such
securities, derivatives or other instruments at any time and to formulate other
purposes, plans or proposals regarding the Issuer or any of its securities, to
the extent deemed advisable in light of general investment and trading policies
of the Reporting Persons, market conditions or other factors. Except as set
forth herein, the Reporting Persons do not have any plans or proposals at this
time that relate to or would result in any of the transactions described in
subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

Item 5.    Interest in Securities of the Issuer

(a) and (b)  According to information filed by the Issuer with the Securities
and Exchange Commission in its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June  30,
2006, the number of Shares outstanding was 83,251,419 as of August 7,2006. As
of October 30, 2006, the reporting Person may have been deemed the beneficial
owner of 4,227,128 Shares (approximately 5.6% of the total number of Shares
outstanding).

As of October 30, 2006

Deutsche Bank Securities Inc.                                            13,774

        As of November 24 2006, Deutsche Bank sold 154,255 Shares, reducing the
total  number of Shares for which it may be deemed the beneficial owner to
4,072,873  Shares as of that date, or approximately 4.86% of the total number of
shares outstanding.

Deutsche Bank AG,~London Branch                                       3,397,686
Deutsche Bank AG,~London Branch (arbitrage)                             673,000
Deutsche Bank Securities Inc.                                             2,187


(c)     Transactions by the Reporting Person in the Shares effected during the
past sixty days are set forth in Schedule 2 to this Schedule 13D, which is
incorporated by reference herein.

(d)     Not applicable.

(e)     As November 24  2006, Deutsche Bank sold 154,255 Shares, reducing the
total number of Shares for which it may be deemed the beneficial owner to
4,072,873 Shares, or approximately 4.86 % of the total number of shares
outstanding, and therefore the Reporting Person ceased to be the owner of
greater than 5% of the total number of Shares outstanding on that date.

Item 6.    Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings, or Relationships with
           Respect to Securities of the Issuer

repurchase transactions relating to portfolio securities, including the Shares,
to and with brokers, banks or other financial institutions. From time to time,
to the  extent  permitted  by applicable laws, the Reporting Person may borrow
