             ONE LIBERTY PROPERTIES ANNOUNCES RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
               FOR THE QUARTER AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2004

Great Neck, New York - August 9, 2004 - One Liberty Properties, Inc. (NYSE: OLP)
today announced that for the three months ended June 30, 2004 it had revenues of
$6,198,000 and net income applicable to common stockholders of $2,221,000, or
$.23 per share on a diluted basis. Net income includes the Company's equity in
earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures of $295,000. For the quarter ended
June 30, 2003, the Company reported revenues of $4,583,000 and net income
applicable to common stockholders of $1,749,000, or $.31 per share on a diluted
basis. Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 includes the Company's
equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures of $588,000. The weighted
average number of common shares outstanding on a diluted basis was 9,736,000 and
5,715,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and June 30, 2003,
respectively.

The Company had revenues of $11,848,000 and net income applicable to common
stockholders of $4,466,000, or $.46 per share on a diluted basis for the six
months ended June 30, 2004. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2004
includes the Company's equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures of
$970,000. This compares with revenues, net income applicable to common
stockholders and net income per share on a diluted basis of $9,226,000,
$3,689,000 and $.65 per share, respectively for the six months ended June 30,
2003. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2003 includes the Company's
equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures of $1,243,000. The weighted
average number of common shares outstanding on a diluted basis was 9,712,000 and
5,691,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and June 30, 2003,
respectively.

Funds from operations applicable to common stockholders for the three months
ended June 30, 2004 was $3,624,000, or $.37 per share on a diluted basis,
compared to $2,708,000, or $.47 per share on a diluted basis, for the three
months ended June 30, 2003. Funds from operations for the six months ended June
30, 2004 was $7,157,000, or $.74 per share on a diluted basis, as compared to
$5,599,000, or $.98 per share on a diluted basis, for the six months ended June
30, 2003. Funds from operations, calculated in accordance with the NAREIT
definition, adds back to net income depreciation of properties, the Company's
share of depreciation in unconsolidated joint ventures and amortization of
capitalized leasing expenses and deducts gain on sale of real estate and cash
distributions paid to preferred stockholders. (See the attached chart). The
Company redeemed all of its outstanding preferred stock on December 30, 2003.

Commenting on the results of operations and the funds from operations, Jeffrey
Fishman, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company noted that
revenues, substantially all of which represents rental income, increased by
$1,615,000, or 35.2%, quarter versus quarter and $2,622,000, or 28.4%, six
months versus six months due to rental revenues earned on properties acquired
between February 2003 and May 2004. Total expenses increased $1,095,000, or
34.5%, quarter versus quarter and $2,077,000, or 33.1%, six months versus six
months as a result of increases in depreciation and amortization due to the
ownership of additional properties, increases in mortgage interest as the result
of new mortgages placed on two properties, the assumption of mortgages in
connection with four property acquisitions and the refinancing of one mortgage
and increases in general and administrative expenses. The increase in general
and administrative expenses in 2004 is principally due to an increase in
professional fees resulting from property acquisitions, mortgage refinancings
and compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley, increased staffing, increases in executive
compensation and amortization of restricted stock awards. The increase in
expenses in the six months ending June 30, 2004 is also due to a non-recurring
fee for the initial listing by the Company of its common stock on the New York
Stock Exchange in January 2004.

In reviewing the results, Mr. Fishman commented that the per share income in
both 2004 periods declined in comparison to the 2003 periods due to the fact
that as a result of the public offering completed by the Company in October 2003
there was a significant increase in the weighted average number of shares
outstanding, combined with the fact that the proceeds from such public offering
have not yet been fully utilized. He noted that the Company purchased three
properties in the six months ended June 30, 2004 for a total consideration of
approximately $28,700,000, one of which was purchased in the middle of May 2004,
and that at June 30, 2004 the Company had cash and cash equivalents of
approximately $20,915,000, substantially all of which will be used for property
acquisitions. He reported that the Company has entered into a contract to
acquire a long term ground leasehold position in a 16 screen megaplex theater
leased to Consolidated Theaters Inc. for $8.3 million and a contract to acquire
for a joint venture in which the Company is a 50% partner, a 926,000 square foot
industrial complex for a consideration of $12.5 million. The industrial complex,
located in South Milwaukee, Wisconsin is leased on a long term net lease basis
to Bucyrus International, Inc. Both purchases are expected to close within the
next two weeks.

The Company's equity in earnings of one of its movie theater joint ventures
decreased by $449,000 and $550,000 in the quarter and six months ended June 30,
2004. This is due to the non-payment of rent at one of the joint venture's
theater properties and a decision to reverse the entire straight line rent
previously recognized with respect to this theater, as well as another theater
operated by the same lessee. Equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures
was also adversely affected in the quarter and six months periods by the
bankruptcy of a retail tenant (not a movie theater) occupying a property owned
by a joint venture in which the Company has a 50% equity position. These
decreases were offset in part by the Company's purchase of an additional 25%
interest in another movie theater joint venture as of October 1, 2003 resulting
in an increase in the equity in earnings from this venture.

One Liberty Properties is a real estate investment trust and invests primarily
in improved commercial real estate under long term net lease.
