Re:
Request for Withdrawal – Submission Type “RW”
 
S-3 (File No. 333-150960)
 
S-3 (File No. 333-150984)

 
Dear Sir or Madam:
 
On behalf of our client, Lexington Realty Trust (the “Trust”), we are transmitting this letter relating to the Trust’s two Form S-3s (File Nos. 333-150960, 333-150984, the “Original S-3 Filings”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 16, 2008.
 
The Original S-3 Filings were inadvertently filed under submission type “S-3” rather than the proper “S-3ASR” submission type.  Upon withdrawing the Original S-3 Filings pursuant to this request, the Trust will re-file the registration statements under submission type S-3ASR and request that the original filing date of May 16, 2008 be applied to the new S-3ASR filings.  Please note that the registration fees in connection with the re-filing of the registration statements under S-3ASR are being offset by the registration fees paid in connection with the Original S-3 Filings.
 
The Trust confirms that no securities have been sold pursuant to the Original S-3 Filings.
 
Please contact the undersigned if you have any questions on this matter.
