- <p> Remember all those worries about the Japanese buying up
- prime U.S. real estate, including such high-ticket properties
- as Rockefeller Center in New York City and the giant ARCO Plaza
- in Los Angeles? Well, the big worry now is that the Japanese
- may be selling some of those properties, taking more bounce out
- of an already soft market. Apparently, the worsening U.S.
- economy and the battering of Tokyo financial markets are
- forcing many giant Japanese companies to reconsider investment
- strategies. Among the first properties rumored to be on the
- block: three office towers in Midtown Manhattan and some major
- buildings in L.A.'s Century City.
