Re:Preliminary Proxy Materials for

Alpine Global Premier Properties Fund

(File No. 811-22016)

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

On behalf of Alpine Global Premier Properties Fund (the “Fund”), and pursuant to Rule 14a-6(a) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, transmitted herewith are the preliminary proxy materials consisting of a Notice of Special Meeting of Shareholders, a Proxy Statement and a Form of Proxy to be used in connection with the Special Meeting of Shareholders of the Fund to be held on March 14, 2018 (the “Special Meeting”).

 

As set forth in more detail in the accompanying proxy materials, the Special Meeting is being held to (i) approve a new investment advisory agreement between the Fund and Aberdeen Asset Managers Limited (“Proposal 1”); (ii) approve a new subadvisory agreement by and among the Fund, Aberdeen Asset Managers Limited and Aberdeen Asset Management Inc. (“Proposal 2”); and (iii) elect four Trustees, each to serve a term from one to three years and until his or her successor has been duly elected and qualifies (“Proposal 3”).

 

It is anticipated that definitive copies of the proxy materials will be mailed to shareholders on or about January 5, 2018.

 

We note that the Proxy Statement with respect to the Fund is substantially similar to the proxy statements that were also filed on December 21, 2017 with respect to each of Alpine Total Dynamic Dividend Fund and Alpine Global Dynamic Dividend Fund, with the exception of Proposal 2 which is not included in those proxy statements. We therefore respectfully request that the staff take into consideration the similarities amongst the three proxy statements in conducting their review.

Very truly yours,
