    CLEVELAND, May 31 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Associated Estates Realty
Corporation (NYSE: AEC) announced today the sale of North Pointe, a
high-rise apartment community located on the shores of Lake Erie in Euclid,
Ohio, a suburb of Cleveland. The property, built in 1971, consists of two,
22-story towers, totaling 949 units. The property's physical occupancy at
closing was 89%.

cap/ex. Net sales proceeds are expected to be used to acquire another
property.
