Pursuant to Rule 13d-2 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, this Amendment No. 3 to Schedule 13D (this “Amendment No. 3”) amends and supplements the Schedule 13D originally filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) dated April 11, 2013 (the “Original Schedule 13D”), as amended by Amendment No. 1 on December 8, 2015 (the “Amendment No. 1”) and Amendment No. 2 on February 14, 2017 (the “Amendment No. 2”).  The Original Schedule 13D, Amendment No. 1, Amendment No. 2 and this Amendment No. 3 are together referred to herein as the “Schedule 13D”.
This Amendment No. 3 relates to the common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), of Trinity Place Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Trinity” or the “Company”), owned by the Reporting Persons.  Except as specifically amended by Amendment No. 1, Amendment No. 2 and this Amendment No. 3, items in the Schedule 13D are unchanged.  Capitalized terms used herein that are not defined herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D.
Item 3. Sources and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following paragraph after the third paragraph of Item 3:
“Pursuant to a prospectus supplement dated March 2, 2017, the Company granted holders of Common Stock, at no charge, non-transferable subscription rights to purchase shares of Common Stock (the “Rights Offering”) at a price of $7.50 per share.  On April 5, 2017, effective upon the closing of the Rights Offering, MFP exercised its pro rata subscription rights with respect to its ownership of Common Stock and purchased from the Company 462,833 shares of Common Stock at a price of $7.50 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $3,471,247.50.  The source of funds for the acquisition of the shares of Common Stock by MFP pursuant to the Rights Offering was working capital.”
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by replacing sections (a) and (b) of Item 5 with the following:
“(a)  MFP directly owns 4,133,410 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 13.2% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock.  The ownership percentage set forth above is based on 31,228,005 shares of Common Stock outstanding as set forth in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the issuer with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 5, 2017.
(b)  Due to their respective relationships with MFP and each other, each of the Reporting Persons may be deemed to share voting and dispositive power with respect to the 4,133,410 shares of Common Stock reported herein.”
