Item 5.  Other Events.

                  Effective February 12, 2001, Regency Realty Corporation (the
"Company") changed its name to Regency Centers Corporation. The Company's common
stock will have the new CUSIP number 758849 10 3. Its trading symbol on the New
York Stock Exchange will remain REG. For more information on the Company, you
can visit its new website at www.regencycenters.com.

                  Because the Company's future SEC filings will appear on the
SEC website only under the Company's new name, this Form 8-K is being filed to
avoid confusion in locating the Company's SEC filings. The Company is also
filing a mirror image Form 8-K under the name Regency Realty Corporation.
