CUSIP No. 314308107    13D    Page 5 of 11 pages

This Amendment No. 1 (the “Amendment”) amends and supplements the Schedule 13D as filed on December 19, 2006 (the “Schedule 13D”), with respect to shares of Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Shares”), of Feldman Mall Properties, Inc. (the “Issuer”). Capitalized terms used herein but not defined shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Schedule 13D. The Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

Item 2. Identity and Background.

(a) This statement is being filed by the following persons: Mercury Real Estate Advisors LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Advisors”), David R. Jarvis, an individual (“Mr. Jarvis”), and Malcolm F. MacLean IV, an individual (“Mr. MacLean” and collectively with Advisors and Mr. Jarvis, the “Reporting Persons”).

The Shares to which this Schedule 13D relates are owned directly by the Funds. Messrs. Jarvis and MacLean are the managing members of Advisors.


CUSIP No. 314308107    13D    Page 6 of 11 pages

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

The total amount of funds required by the Reporting Persons to acquire the Shares was $14,251,663.70. Each of the Funds used its own assets to purchase such Shares, which may at any given time include funds borrowed in the ordinary course in their margin accounts.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

This Schedule 13D is being filed pursuant to Rule 13d-1(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Reporting Persons previously filed a Schedule 13G on June 15, 2005, as amended on February 14, 2006, to report the acquisition of the Shares. On December 18, 2006, the Reporting Persons sent a letter to the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of the Issuer (the “December 18th Letter”). The December 18th Letter contained a shareholder proposal for inclusion with the Issuer’s proxy statement, which recommended that the Board of Directors of the Issuer promptly engage an investment banking firm and pursue a sale of the Issuer. A copy of the December 18th Letter is attached to the Schedule 13D as Exhibit A and is incorporated herein by reference. In addition, on December 18, 2006, the Reporting Persons issued a press release related to the December 18th Letter, a copy of which is attached to the Schedule 13D as Exhibit B and is incorporated herein by reference. On January 30, 2007, the Reporting Persons sent a letter to the Board of Directors of the Issuer (the “January 30th Letter”). A copy of the January 30th Letter is attached hereto as Exhibit C and is incorporated herein by reference.

In connection with the foregoing, and as may be appropriate from time to time depending on the course of discussions with the Issuer or other actions taken by the Issuer, the Reporting Persons will consider the feasibility and advisability of various alternative courses of action with respect to their investment in the Issuer, provided, however, that the Reporting Persons do not currently intend to engage in a control transaction or any contested solicitation for the election of directors of the Issuer.

Except as set forth in the Schedule 13D, no contract, arrangement, relationship or understanding (either oral or written) exists among the Reporting Persons as to the acquisition, disposition, voting or holding of Shares.

The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the Issuer from time to time on the basis of various factors, including the Issuer’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects, general economic and industry conditions, the securities markets in general and those for the Issuer’s stock in particular, as well as other developments.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

(a) and (b) As of the date hereof, Mercury Special Situations Fund LP, Mercury Special Situations Offshore Fund, Ltd., Mercury Real Estate Securities Fund LP, Mercury Real Estate Securities Offshore Fund, Ltd., Silvercreek SAV LLC, Mercury Global Alpha Fund LP and GPC LXV, LLC owned beneficially 252,525; 509,498; 82,238; 172,662; 104,124; 49,175 and 97,331 Shares, respectively, representing approximately 1.9%; 3.9%; 0.6%; 1.3%; 0.8%; 0.4% and 0.7%, respectively, of the shares of common stock, par value $0.01, of the Issuer outstanding as reported in publicly available information.

Board of Directors

Feldman Mall Properties, Inc.

1010 Northern Boulevard

Suite 314

Great Neck, NY 11024

Dear Gentlemen:

As you know, Mercury Real Estate Advisors LLC (“Mercury”) is the second largest investor in Feldman Mall Properties, Inc. (“Feldman” or the “Company”) with a reported ownership stake of 9.7%. In a letter dated December 18, 2006 to the Chief Executive Office of Feldman, we strongly urged the Board of Directors of the Company to promptly engage a leading investment banking firm to pursue a sale of the Company. We continue to strongly advocate this course of action given that the Company continues to trade at a significant discount to its liquidation value.

In response to our December 18, 2006 letter, we have received numerous inquiries from well known and established, national and regional mall owners and operations that have expressed their interest in exploring a purchase of the Company and its assets. As a result, we demand that the Board act consistent with its fiduciary duties to shareholders and immediately form a Committee of Independent Directors to pursue strategic alternatives for the Company. This committee should be responsible for maximizing shareholder value by seriously considering a sale of the Company.

Please advise us as soon as possible as to the formation of such committee and the identity of its Chairman so that we can refer such interested parties.

 

Very truly yours,
MERCURY REAL ESTATE ADVISORS LLC
