THIS PAGE NOT PART OF YOUR FUND REPORT

Dear Shareholder

The October reporting period was fairly tumultuous for financial markets, but culminated in positive performance for most major benchmarks:

Total returns as of October 31, 2007

6-month 12-month
U.S. equities
(S&P 500 Index) +5.49% +14.56%
Small cap U.S.
equities (Russell 2000 Index) +2.25% +9.27%
International
equities (MSCI Europe, Australasia, Far East Index) +8.19% +24.91%
Fixed income
(Lehman Brothers U.S. Aggregate Bond Index) +2.68% +5.38%
Tax-exempt fixed
income (Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond Index) +1.30% +2.91%
High yield bonds
(Lehman Brothers U.S. Corporate High Yield 2% Issuer Cap Index) -0.07% +6.89%

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Index performance shown for illustrative purposes only. You cannot invest directly in an index.

Subprime mortgage woes dominated headlines for much of 2007, but intensified in the summer and fall, spawning a widespread liquidity and credit crisis with ramifications across global markets. The Federal Reserve Board (Fed) and other countries’ central banks stepped in to inject liquidity into the markets and bolster investor confidence. The Fed cut the federal funds rate by 0.50% in September and another 0.25% on the final day of the reporting period, bringing its target rate to 4.50%. In taking action, the central bankers, who had long deemed themselves inflation fighters, were seeking to stem the fallout from the credit crunch and forestall a wider economic unraveling. By period-end, the Fed had cited the risks between slower economic growth and faster inflation as equally balanced.

Amid the volatility throughout the past year, equity markets have displayed surprising resilience. Most recently, the credit turmoil dampened corporate merger-and-acquisition (M&A) activity, a key source of strength for equity markets. Still, market fundamentals have held firm, dividend payouts and share buybacks have continued to grow, and valuations remain attractive. These tailwinds generally have prevailed over the headwinds created by the slowing U.S. economy, troubled housing market and, recently, a more difficult corporate earnings backdrop. International markets fared even better than U.S. equities, benefiting from robust M&A activity and generally stronger economies.

In fixed income markets, mixed economic signals and the credit woes resulted in a flight to quality. At the height of the uncertainty, investors shunned bonds associated with the housing and credit markets in favor of higher-quality Treasury issues. The yield on 10-year Treasury issues, which touched 5.30% in June (its highest level in five years), fell to 4.48% by period-end, while prices correspondingly rose. The tax-exempt bond market has been challenged by a combination of record-setting supply year-to-date, economic uncertainty and concerns around the credit worthiness of bond insurers. This has brought municipal bond prices to relatively attractive levels and, as such, demand generally has remained firm.

As you navigate market volatility, we encourage you to review your investment goals with your financial professional and to make portfolio changes, as needed. For more market insight and commentary from BlackRock investment professionals, we invite you to visit www.blackrock.com/funds. As always, we thank you for entrusting BlackRock with your investment assets, and we look forward to continuing to serve you in the months and years ahead.

Sincerely,

Note 1. Organization & Accounting Policies

BlackRock Investment Quality Municipal Trust Inc. (“Investment Quality Municipal”), BlackRock California Investment Quality Municipal Trust Inc. (“California Investment Quality”), BlackRock New Jersey Investment Quality Municipal Trust Inc. (“New Jersey Investment Quality”) and BlackRock New York Investment Quality Municipal Trust Inc. (“New York Investment Quality”) were organized as Maryland corporations. BlackRock Florida Investment Quality Municipal Trust (“Florida Investment Quality”) was organized as a Massachusetts business trust. Investment Quality Municipal, California Investment Quality, Florida Investment Quality, New Jersey Investment Quality and New York Investment Quality are herein referred to as the Investment Quality Trusts. BlackRock Municipal Income Trust (“Municipal Income”), BlackRock California Municipal Income Trust (“California Income”), BlackRock Florida Municipal Income Trust (“Florida Income”), BlackRock New Jersey Municipal Income Trust (“New Jersey Income”), BlackRock New York Municipal Income Trust (“New York Income”) (collectively the “Income Trusts”) and BlackRock Long-Term Municipal Advantage Trust (“Long-Term Municipal”) were organized as Delaware statutory trusts. The Investment Quality Trusts, Income Trusts and Long-Term Municipal are referred to herein collectively as the “Trusts”. Investment Quality Municipal and Municipal Income are registered as diversified, closed-end management investment companies under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). California Investment Quality, California Income, Florida Investment Quality, Florida Income, Long-Term Municipal, New Jersey Investment Quality, New Jersey Income, New York Investment Quality and New York Income are registered as non-diversified, closed-end management investment companies under the 1940 Act.

Long-Term Municipal was organized on November 7, 2005 and had no capital transactions until January 4, 2006 when the Trust sold 9,704 common shares for $139,010 to BlackRock Funding, Inc. Investment operations for Long-Term Municipal commenced on February 28, 2006. Long-Term Municipal incurred organization costs which were deferred from the organization date until the commencement of operations.

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Trusts.

Investments Valuation: Municipal investments (including commitments to purchase such investments on a “when-issued” basis) are valued on the basis of prices provided by dealers or pricing services selected under the supervision of each Trust’s Board of Trustees or Board of Directors, as appropriate (“Trustees” or a “Board”). In determining the value of a particular investment, pricing services may use certain information with respect to transactions in such investments as appropriate, quotations from bond dealers, market transactions in comparable investments and various relationships between investments. Swap quotations are provided by dealers selected under supervision of the Board. Short-term securities may be valued at amortized cost. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at net asset value per share. Any investments or other assets for which such current market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value (“Fair Value Assets”) as determined in good faith under procedures established by, and under the general supervision and responsibility of, each Trust’s Board. The investment advisor and/or sub-advisor will submit its recommendations regarding the valuation and/or valuation methodologies for Fair Value Assets to a valuation committee. The valuation committee may accept, modify or reject any recommendations. The pricing of all Fair Value Assets shall be subsequently reported to the Board.

When determining the price for a Fair Value Asset, the investment advisor and/or sub-advisor shall seek to determine the price that the Trust might reasonably expect to receive from the current sale of that asset in an arm’slength transaction. Fair value determinations shall be based upon all available factors that the investment advisor and/or sub-advisor deems relevant.

In September 2006, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“FAS 157”), was issued and is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. FAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of FAS 157 and its impact on the Trusts’ financial statements, if any, has not been determined.

In addition, in February 2007, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” (“FAS 159”). was issued and is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of a fiscal year that begins on or before November 15, 2007, provided the entity also elects to apply the provisions of FAS 157. FAS 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured as fair value. FAS 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of FAS 159 and its impact on the Trust’s financial statements, if any, had not been determined.

Forward Commitments, When-Issued and Delayed Delivery Securities: The Portfolios may purchase securities on a when-issued basis and may purchase or sell securities on a forward commitment basis. Settlement of such transactions normally occurs within a month or more after the purchase or sale commitment is made. The Portfolios may purchase securities under such conditions only with the intention of actually acquiring them, but may enter into a separate agreement to sell the securities before the settlement date. Since the value of securities purchased may fluctuate prior to settlement, the Portfolios may be required to pay more at settlement than the security is worth. In addition, the purchaser is not entitled to any of the interest earned prior to settlement. Upon making a commitment to purchase a security on a when-issued forward commitment basis, the Portfolios will hold liquid assets worth at least the equivalent of the amount due.

Investment Transactions and Investment Income: Investment transactions are recorded on trade date. The cost of investments sold and the related gain or loss is determined by use of the specific identification method, generally first-in, first-out, for both financial reporting and federal income tax purposes. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend dates. Each Trust

54 ANNUAL REPORT OCTOBER 31, 2007

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

also records interest income on an accrual basis and amortizes premium and/or accretes discount on securities purchased using the interest method.

Financial Futures Contracts: A futures contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a financial instrument for a set price on a future date. Initial margin deposits are made upon entering into futures contracts and can be either cash or securities. During the period the futures contract is open, changes in the value of the contract are recognized as unrealized gains or losses by “marking-to-market” on a daily basis to reflect the market value of the contract at the end of each day’s trading. Variation margin payments are made or received, depending upon whether unrealized gains or losses are incurred. When the contract is closed, the Trust records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the proceeds from (or cost of) the closing transaction and the Trust’s basis in the contract.

Financial futures contracts, when used by the Trusts, help in maintaining a targeted duration. Futures contracts can be sold to effectively shorten an otherwise longer duration portfolio. In the same sense, futures contracts can be purchased to lengthen a portfolio that is shorter than its duration target. Thus, by buying or selling futures contracts, the Trusts may attempt to manage the duration of positions so that changes in interest rates do not change the duration of the portfolio unexpectedly.

Forward Starting Swaps: Forward starting swaps are an agreement for an interest rate swap asset or liability to be created or sold in the future. Interest rate swaps are an agreement in which one party pays a floating rate of interest on a notional principal amount and receives a fixed rate of interest on the same notional principal amount for a specified period of time. Alternatively, a party may pay a fixed rate and receive a floating rate. The Trusts close each forward starting swap before the accrual date specified in the agreement and therefore never enter into the interest rate swap underlying each forward starting swap.

During the term of the swap, changes in the value of the swap are recognized as unrealized gains or losses by “marking-to-market” daily based upon quotations from market makers to reflect the market value of the swap. When the swap is terminated, a Trust will record a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the proceeds from (or cost of) the closing transaction and the Trust’s basis in the contract, if any.

Entering into these agreements involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit and market risk in excess of the amounts recognized on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counter-party to the agreement may default on its obligation to perform and that there may be unfavorable changes in the fluctuation of interest and/or exchange rates. However, the investment advisor of the Trusts monitor swaps and do not anticipate non-performance by any counterparty.

Segregation: In cases in which the 1940 Act, and the interpretive positions of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) require that each Trust segregate assets in connection with certain investments (e.g., when-issued securities or forward starting swaps), each Trust will, consistent with certain interpretive letters issued by the Commission, designate on its books and records cash or other liquid securities having a market value at least equal to the amount that would otherwise be required to be physically segregated.

Federal Income Taxes: It is each Trust’s intention to continue to be treated as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and to distribute sufficient net income and net realized capital gains, if any, to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provisions have been recorded.

In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”) “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes — and interpretation of FAS Statement No. 109.” FIN 48 prescribes the minimum recognition threshold a tax position must meet in connection with accounting for uncertainties in income tax positions taken or expected to be taken by an entity, including mutual funds, before being measured and recognized in the financial statements. Adoption of FIN 48 is required for the last net asset value calculation in the first required financial statement reporting period for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The impact on each of the Trust’s financial statements, if any, is currently being assessed.

Dividends and Distributions: Each Trust declares and pays dividends and distributions to common shareholders monthly from net investment income, net realized short-term capital gains and other sources, if necessary. Net long-term capital gains, if any, in excess of loss carryforwards may be distributed in accordance with the 1940 Act. Dividends and distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Dividends and distributions to preferred shareholders are accrued and determined as described in Note 6.

Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates and such differences may be material.

Deferred Compensation and BlackRock Closed-End Share Equivalent Investment Plan: Under the deferred compensation plan approved by each Trust’s Board, non-interested Trustees (“Independent Trustees”) defer a portion of their annual complex-wide compensation. Deferred amounts earn an approximate return as though equivalent dollar amounts had been invested in common shares of other BlackRock closed-end trusts selected by the Independent Trustees. These amounts are shown on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as “Investments in Affiliates.” This has the same economic effect for the Independent Trustees as if the Independent Trustees had invested the deferred amounts in such Trusts.

The deferred compensation plan is not funded and obligations thereunder represent general unsecured claims against the general assets of the Trust.

ANNUAL REPORT OCTOBER 31, 2007 55

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

Each Trust may, however, elect to invest in common shares of those Trusts selected by the Independent Trustees in order to match its deferred compensation obligations.

Other: Expenses that are directly related to one of the Trusts are charged directly to that Trust. Other operating expenses are generally pro-rated to the Trusts on the basis of relative net assets of all the BlackRock Closed-End Funds.

Note 2. Municipal Bonds Held in Trust

Long-Term Municipal invests in highly leveraged residual certificates (“TOB Residuals”) issued by tender option bond trusts (“TOBs”). A TOB is established by a third party sponsor forming a special purpose entity, into which Long-Term Municipal, or an agent on behalf of Long-Term Municipal, transfers municipal securities. A TOB typically issues two classes of beneficial interests: short-term floating rate certificates, which are sold to third party investors, and residual certificates, which are generally issued to Long-Term Municipal. The transfer of the municipal securities to a TOB does not qualify for sale treatment under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 140, “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities,” therefore the municipal securities deposited into a TOB are presented in Long-Term Municipal’s schedule of investments and the proceeds from the transaction are reported as a liability for trust certificates of Long-Term Municipal. Similarly, proceeds from residual certificates issued to affiliates, if any, from the transaction are included in the liability for trust certificates. Interest income from the underlying security is recorded by Long-Term Municipal on an accrual basis. Interest expense incurred on the secured borrowing and other expenses relating to remarketing, administration and trustee services to a TOB are reported as expenses of Long-Term Municipal. The floating rate certificates have interest rates that generally reset weekly and their holders have the option to tender certificates to the TOB for redemption at par at each reset date. The residual interests held by Long-Term Municipal include the right of Long-Term Municipal (1) to cause the holders of a proportional share of floating rate certificates to tender their certificates at par, and (2) to transfer a corresponding share of the municipal securities from the TOB to Long-Term Municipal. The proceeds received from the transaction are used by Long-Term Municipal to purchase additional municipal bonds or other investments permitted by Long-Term Municipal’s investment policies. At October 31, 2007, the aggregate value of the underlying municipal securities transferred to TOBs was $177,087,696, the related liability for the trust certificates was $177,527,503, and the range of interest rates was 4.07% to 3.39%.

Financial transactions executed through TOBs generally will under perform the market for fixed rate municipal bonds in a rising interest rate environment, but tend to outperform the market for fixed rate bonds when interest rates decline or remain relatively stable. Should short-term interest rates rise, Long-Term Municipal’s investment in TOB Residuals likely will adversely affect Long-Term Municipal’s net investment income and dividends to shareholders. Fluctuations in the market value of municipal securities deposited into the TOB may adversely affect Long-Term Municipal’s net asset value per share. Long-Term Municipal invests in highly leveraged TOB Residuals and consequently may lose money in excess of the amount of its investment. Long-Term Municipal invests in residual certificates for the purpose of using economic leverage as a more flexible alternative to the issuance of preferred shares.

Note 3. Agreements and Other Transactions with Affiliates and Related Parties

Each Trust has an Investment Management Agreement with BlackRock Advisors, LLC (the “Advisor”), a wholly owned subsidiary of BlackRock, Inc. BlackRock Financial Management, Inc. (“BFM”), a wholly owned subsidiary of BlackRock, Inc., serves as sub-advisor to each Trust. Merrill Lynch & Co., Inc. and The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. are principal owners of BlackRock, Inc. The investment management agreement for each Income Trust and Long-Term Municipal covers both investment advisory and administration services. Each Investment Quality Trust has an Administration Agreement with the Advisor.

The Trust’s investment advisory fee paid to the Advisor is computed weekly and payable monthly based on an annual rate, 0.35% for the Investment Quality Trusts and 0.60% for the Income Trusts, of the Trust’s average weekly managed assets. “Managed assets” means the total assets of a Trust (including any assets attributable to any preferred shares that may be outstanding) minus the sum of accrued liabilities (other than debt representing financial leverage). The Advisor has voluntarily agreed to waive a portion of the investment advisory fee or other expenses on the Income Trusts as a percentage of managed assets as follows: 0.25% for the first five years of each of the Trust’s operations from 2001 through July 31, 2006, 0.20% through July 31, 2007, 0.15% through July 31, 2008, 0.10% through July 31, 2009 and 0.05% through July 31, 2010.

Long-Term Municipal’s investment advisory fee paid to the Advisor is computed weekly and payable monthly based on an annual rate equal to 1.00% of the average weekly net assets. ‘‘Net Assets’’ means the total assets of the Trust minus the sum of accrued liabilities. The Advisor has voluntarily agreed to waive a portion of the investment advisory or other expenses of Long-Term Municipal in the amount of 0.40% of the average weekly value of the Long-Term Municipal’s Net Assets for the first five years of the Trust’s operations from 2006 through 2011 and for declining amounts for the following three years, 0.30% in 2012, 0.20% in 2013 and 0.10% in 2014.

The administration fee paid to the Advisor is computed weekly and payable monthly based on an annual rate of 0.15% for the Municipal Investment Quality Trust and 0.10% for the California Investment Quality, Florida Investment Quality, New Jersey Investment Quality and New York Investment Quality of the Trusts’ average weekly managed assets.

The Advisor has agreed to reimburse its advisory fees by the amount of investment advisory fees each Trust pays to the Advisor indirectly through its investments in affiliated money market funds, which is shown on the Statements of Operations as “fees reimbursed by Advisor.”

The Advisor pays BFM fees for its sub-advisory services.

Pursuant to the agreements, the Advisor provides continuous supervision of the investment portfolio and pays the compensation of officers of each Trust who are affiliated persons of the Advisor, as well as occupancy and certain clerical and accounting costs of each Trust. Each Trust bears all other costs and expenses, which include reimbursements to the Advisor for costs of employees that provide pricing and secondary market support to each Trust.

56 ANNUAL REPORT OCTOBER 31, 2007

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

These expenses are generally pro-rated to the Trusts on the basis of relative net assets of all the BlackRock Closed-End Funds. For the year ended October 31, 2007, the Trusts reimbursed the Advisor the following amounts, which are included in miscellaneous expenses in the Statement of Operations:

Note 5. Income Tax Information

No provision is made for U.S. federal taxes as it is the portfolios intention to continue to qualify for and elect the tax treatment applicable to regulated investment companies under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and to make the requisite distributions to its shareholders which will be sufficient to relieve it from federal income and excise taxes.

Reclassification of Capital Accounts: U.S. generally accepted accounting principles require that certain components of net assets be adjusted to reflect permanent differences between financial and tax reporting. Accordingly, the table below summarizes the amounts reclassified per Trust during the current year between undistributed (distributions in excess of) net investment income and accumulated net realized gain (loss) as a result of permanent differences attributable to amortization methods on fixed income

The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized gains/losses is attributable primarily to amortization methods of premiums and discounts on fixed income securities, the tax deferral of losses on wash sales, the timing of recognition of income from partnership investments, the difference between the book and tax treatment of residual interests in tender option bonds and other temporary differences.

For federal income tax purposes, the following Trusts had capital loss carryforwards at October 31, 2007, the Trust’s last tax year-end except for New York Income which had its last tax year-end at July 31, 2007. These amounts may be used to offset future realized capital gains, if any:

A Trust may not declare dividends or make other distributions on common shares or purchase any such shares if, at the time of the declaration, distribution or purchase, asset coverage with respect to the outstanding preferred shares would be less than 200%.

The preferred shares are redeemable at the option of each Trust, in whole or in part, on any dividend payment date at $25,000 per share plus any accumulated unpaid dividends whether or not declared. The preferred shares are also subject to mandatory redemption at $25,000 per share plus any accumulated or unpaid dividends, whether or not declared, if certain requirements relating to the composition of the assets and liabilities of a Trust, as set forth in each Trust’s Declaration of Trust/Articles Supplementary, are not satisfied.

The holders of preferred shares have voting rights equal to the holders of common shares (one vote per share) and will vote together with holders of common shares as a single class. However, holders of preferred shares, voting as a separate class, are also entitled to elect two Trustees for each Trust. In addition, the 1940 Act requires that along with approval by shareholders that might otherwise be required, the approval of the holders of a majority of any outstanding preferred shares, voting separately as a class would be required to (a) adopt any plan of reorganization that would adversely affect the preferred shares, (b) change a Trust’s subclassification as a closed-end investment company or change its fundamental investment restrictions and (c) change its business so as to cease to be an investment company.

Notes to Financial Statements (concluded)

Note 7. Concentration Risk

The Trusts concentrate their investments in securities issued by state agencies, other governmental entities and U.S. Territories. The Trusts are more susceptible to adverse financial, social, environmental, economic, regulatory and political factors that may affect these states agencies, other governmental entities and U.S. Territories, which could seriously affect the ability of these states and their municipal subdivisions to meet continuing obligations for principal and interest payments and therefore could impact the value of the Trusts’ investments and net asset value per share, than if the Trusts were not concentrated in securities issued by state agencies, other governmental entities and U.S. Territories.

Many municipalities insure repayment for their obligations. Although bond insurance reduces the risk of loss due to default by an issuer, such bonds remain subject to the risk that market value may fluctuate for other reasons and there is no assurance that the insurance company will meet its obligations. These securities have been identified in the Portfolios of Investments.

Note 8. Subsequent Events

Subsequent to October 31, 2007, the Board of each Trust declared dividends from undistributed earnings per common share payable December 1, 2007, to shareholders of record on November 15, 2007. The per share common dividends declared were as follows:

Trust Common Dividend Per Share

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of the Trusts, including the portfolios of investments, as of October 31, 2007, the related statements of operations for the year then ended, and the statements of changes in net assets and the financial highlights for each of the periods presented and the statement of cash flows for BlackRock Long-Term Municipal Advantage Trust for the year ended October 31, 2007. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Trusts’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Trusts are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of their internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2007, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Trusts as of October 31, 2007, the results of their operations and the cash flows for BlackRock Long-Term Municipal Advantage Trust for the year then ended, and the changes in their net assets and financial highlights for each of the periods presented, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

T he Benefits and Risks of Leveraging (unaudited)

The Trusts utilize leveraging to seek to enhance the yield and net asset value of its Common Stock. However, these objectives cannot be achieved in all interest rate environments. To leverage, the Trusts may issue Preferred Stock, which pays dividends at prevailing short-term interest rates, and invests the proceeds in long-term municipal bonds. The interest earned on these investments, net of dividends to Preferred Stock, is paid to Common Stock shareholders in the form of dividends, and the value of these Trusts holdings is reflected in the per share net asset value of the Trust’s Common Stock. However, in order to benefit Common Stock shareholders, the yield curve must be positively sloped; that is, short-term interest rates must be lower than long-term interest rates. At the same time, a period of generally declining interest rates will benefit Common Stock shareholders. If either of these conditions change, then the risks of leveraging will begin to outweigh the benefits.

To illustrate these concepts, assume a Trust’s Common Stock capitalization of $100 million and the issuance of Preferred Stock for an additional $50 million, creating a total value of $150 million available for investment in long-term municipal bonds. If prevailing short-term interest rates are approximately 3% and long-term interest rates are approximately 6%, the yield curve has a strongly positive slope. The Trust pays dividends on the $50 million of Preferred Stock based on the lower short-term interest rates. At the same time, the Trust’s total portfolio of $150 million earns the income based on long-term interest rates. Of course, increases in short- term interest rates would reduce (and even eliminate) the dividends on the Common Stock.

In this case, the dividends paid to Preferred Stock shareholders are significantly lower than the income earned on the trust’s long-term investments and, therefore, the Common Stock shareholders are the beneficiaries of the incremental yield. However, if short-term interest rates rise, narrowing the differential between short-term and long-term interest rates, the incremental yield pickup on the Common Stock will be reduced or eliminated completely. At the same time, the market value of the trust’s Common Stock (that is, its price as listed on the New York Stock Exchange or American Stock Exchange) may, as a result, decline. Furthermore, if long-term interest rates rise, the Common Stock’s net asset value will reflect the full decline in the price of the portfolio’s investments, since the value of the Trust’s Preferred Stock does not fluctuate. In addition to the decline in net asset value, the market value of the trust’s Common Stock may also decline.

As of October 31, 2007 the Trusts had the following leverage amounts, due to Auction Market Preferred Shares (“AMPS”), to total net assets before the deduction of AMPS of:

Trust Leverage %
Investment Quality Municipal 37%
Municipal Income 37%
California Investment Quality 35%
California Income 37%
Florida Investment Quality 36%
Florida Income 36%
New Jersey Investment Quality 35%
New Jersey Income 35%
New York Income 34%
New York Investment Quality 37%

As a part of its investment strategy, the Trusts may invest in certain securities whose potential income return is inversely related to changes in a floating interest rate (“inverse floaters”). In general, income on inverse floaters will decrease when short-term interest rates increase and increase when short-term interest rates decrease. Investments in inverse floaters may be characterized as derivative securities and may subject the Trusts to the risks of reduced or eliminated interest payments and losses of invested principal. In addition, inverse floaters have the effect of providing investment leverage and, as a result, the market value of such securities will generally be more volatile than that of fixed rate, tax-exempt securities. To the extent a Trust invests in inverse floaters, the market value of the Trust’s portfolio and net asset value of the Trust’s shares may also be more volatile than if the Trust did not invest in these securities.

Swap Agreements

The Trusts may invest in swap agreements, which are over-the-counter contracts in which one party agrees to make periodic payments based on the change in market value of a specified bond, basket of bonds, or index in return for periodic payments based on a fixed or variable interest rate or the change in market value of a different bond, basket of bonds or index. Swap agreements may be used to obtain exposure to a bond or market without owning or taking physical custody of securities. Swap agreements involve the risk that the party with whom each Fund has entered into a swap will default on its obligation to pay the Fund and the risk that the Fund will not be able to meet its obligation to pay the other party to the agreement.

62 ANNUAL REPORT OCTOBER 31, 2007

D ividend Reinvestment Plans (unaudited)

Pursuant to each Trust’s Dividend Reinvestment Plan (the “Plan”), common shareholders are automatically enrolled to have all distributions of dividends and capital gains reinvested by Computershare Trust Company, N.A. (the “Plan Agent”) in the respective Trust’s shares pursuant to the Plan. Shareholders who elect not to participate in the Plan will receive all distributions in cash paid by check and mailed directly to the shareholders of record (or if the shares are held in street or other nominee name, then to the nominee) by the Plan Agent, which serves as agent for the shareholders in administering the Plan.

At present after an Investment Quality Trust declares a dividend or determines to make a capital gain distribution, the Plan Agent will acquire shares for the participant’s account, by the purchase of outstanding shares on the open market, on the Trust’s primary exchange or elsewhere (“open market purchases”). The Investment Quality Trusts do not presently issue any new shares under the Plan, which serves as agent for the shareholders in administering the Plan.

After the Income Trusts and Long-Term Municipal declare a dividend or determines to make a capital gain distribution, the Plan Agent will acquire shares for the participants’ accounts, depending upon the circumstances described below, either (i) through receipt of unissued but authorized shares from the Trust (“newly issued shares”) or (ii) by open market purchases. If, on the dividend payment date, the net asset value per share (“NAV”) is equal to or less than the market price per share plus estimated brokerage commissions (such condition being referred to herein as “market premium”), the Plan Agent will invest the dividend amount in newly issued shares on behalf of the participants. The number of newly issued shares to be credited to each participant’s account will be determined by dividing the dollar amount of the dividend by the NAV on the date the shares are issued. However, if the NAV is less than 95% of the market price on the payment date, the dollar amount of the dividend will be divided by 95% of the market price on the payment date. If, on the dividend payment date, the NAV is greater than the market value per share plus estimated brokerage commissions (such condition being referred to herein as “market discount”), the Plan Agent will invest the dividend amount in shares acquired on behalf of the participants in open market purchases.

At a meeting of the Boards of Trustees of the Investment Quality Trusts on November 21, 2006, the Boards approved an amendment to the Dividend Reinvestment Plans of each Investment Quality Trust. Although the Plans presently permit shares to be purchases only the open market, as a result of the amendment, the Plans will permit purchases of newly issued shares on terms similar to the Income Trusts described in the preceding paragraph. The amendments took effect on April 1, 2007.

Participants in the Plan may withdraw from the Plan upon written notice to the Plan Agent and will receive certificates for whole Trust shares and a cash payment for any fraction of a Trust share.

The Plan Agent’s fees for the handling of the reinvestment of dividends and distributions will be paid by each Trust. However, each participant will pay a pro rata share of brokerage commissions incurred with respect to the Plan Agent’s open market purchases in connection with the reinvestment of dividends and distributions. The automatic reinvestment of dividends and distributions will not relieve participants of any Federal income tax that may be payable on such dividends or distributions.

Each Trust reserves the right to amend or terminate the Plan. There is no direct service charge to participants in the Plan, however, each Trust reserves the right to amend the Plan to include a service charge payable by the participants. Participants who request a sale of shares through the Plan Agent are subject to a $2.50 sales fee and a $0.15 per share sold brokerage commission. All correspondence concerning the Plan should be directed to the Plan Agent at 250 Royall Street, Canton, MA 02021, or (800) 699-1BFM.

The Trusts will mail only one copy of shareholder documents, including annual and semi-annual reports and proxy statements, to shareholders with multiple accounts at the same address. This practice is commonly called “householding” and is intended to reduce expenses and eliminate duplicate mailings of shareholder documents. Mailings of your shareholder documents may be householded indefinitely unless you instruct us otherwise. If you do not want the mailing of these documents to be combined with those for other members of your household, please contact the Trusts at (800) 699-1BFM.

The Trusts have delegated to the Advisor the voting of proxies relating to their voting securities pursuant to the Advisor’s proxy voting policies and procedures. You may obtain a copy of these proxy voting policies and procedures, without charge, by calling (800) 699-1BFM. These policies and procedures are also available on the website of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) at http://www.sec.gov.

Information on how proxies relating to the Trusts’ voting securities were voted (if any) by the Advisor during the most recent 12-month period ended June 30th is available without charge, upon request, by calling (800) 699-1BFM or on the website of the Commission at http://www.sec.gov.

| Item 2 – | Code of Ethics – The registrant
(or the “Fund”) has adopted a code of ethics, as of the end
of the period covered by this report, applicable to the registrant's
principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal
accounting officer, or persons performing similar functions. During the
period covered by this report, there have been no amendments to or waivers
granted under the code of ethics. A copy of the code of ethics is available

| Item 3 – | Audit
Committee Financial Expert – The registrant's board of directors
or trustees, as applicable (the “board of directors”) has
determined that (i) the registrant has the following audit committee
financial experts serving on its audit committee and (ii) each audit
committee financial expert is independent: Kent Dixon Frank J. Fabozzi Dr. Andrew F. Brimmer (retired as of December 31, 2006) Robert S. Salomon,
Jr. (term began effective November 1, 2007) W. Carl Kester (term began
effective November 1, 2007) James T. Flynn (term began effective November
1, 2007) Karen P. Robards (term began effective November 1, 2007) The registrant's board of directors
has determined that W. Carl Kester and Karen P. Robards qualify as
financial experts pursuant to Item 3(c)(4) of Form N-CSR. Prof. Kester has a thorough
understanding of generally accepted accounting principles, financial
statements and internal control over financial reporting as well as
audit committee functions. Prof. Kester has been involved in providing
valuation and other financial consulting services to corporate clients
since 1978. Prof. Kester’s financial consulting services present
a breadth and level of complexity of accounting issues that are generally
comparable to the breadth and complexity of issues that can reasonably
be expected to be raised by the registrant’s financial statements. Ms. Robards has a thorough understanding
of generally accepted accounting principles, financial statements and
internal control over financial reporting as well as audit committee
functions. Ms. Robards has been President of Robards & Company,
a financial advisory firm, since 1987. Ms. Robards was formerly an
investment banker for more than 10 years where she was responsible
for evaluating and assessing the performance of companies based on
their financial results. Ms. Robards has over 30 years of experience
analyzing financial statements. She also is the member of the Audit
Committees of one publicly held company and a non-profit organization. Under applicable securities
laws, a person determined to be an audit committee financial expert
will not be deemed an “expert” for any purpose, including
without limitation for the purposes of Section 11 of the Securities
Act of 1933, as a result of being designated or identified as an audit
committee financial expert. The designation or identification as an
audit committee financial expert does not impose on such person any
duties, obligations, or liabilities greater than the duties, obligations,
and liabilities imposed on such person as a member of the audit committee
and board of directors in the absence of such designation or identification. |

(e)(1) Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures: The registrant has polices and procedures (the "Policy") for the pre-approval by the registrant's audit committee of Audit, Audit-Related, Tax and Other Services (as each is defined in the Policy) provided by the Fund's independent auditor (the "Independent Auditor") to the registrant and other "Covered Entities" (as defined below). The term of any such pre-approval is 12 months from the date of pre-approval, unless the audit committee specifically provides for a different period. The amount of any such pre-approval is set forth in the appendices to the Policy (the "Service Pre-Approval Documents"). At its first meeting of each calendar year, the audit committee will review and re-approve the Policy and approve or re-approve the Service Pre-Approval Documents for that year, together with any changes deemed necessary or desirable by the audit committee. The audit committee may, from time to time, modify the nature of the services pre-approved, the aggregate level of fees pre-approved or both. For the purposes of the Policy, "Covered Services" means (A) all engagements for audit and non-audit services to be provided by the Independent Auditor to the Fund and (B) all engagements for non-audit services related directly to the operations and financial reporting or the Fund to be provided by the Independent Auditor to any Covered Entity, "Covered Entities" means (1) the Advisor or (2) any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with the Advisor that provides ongoing services to the Fund. In the intervals between the scheduled meetings of the audit committee, the audit committee delegates pre-approval authority under this Policy to the Chairman of the audit committee (the "Chairman"). The Chairman shall report any pre-approval decisions under this Policy to the audit committee at its next scheduled meeting. At each scheduled meeting, the audit committee will review with the Independent Auditor the Covered Services pre-approved by the Chairman pursuant to delegated authority, if any, and the fees related thereto. Based on these reviews, the audit committee can modify, at its discretion, the pre-approval originally granted by the Chairman pursuant to delegated authority. This modification can be to the nature of services pre-approved, the aggregate level of fees approved, or both. Pre-approval of Covered Services by the Chairman pursuant to delegated authority is expected to be the exception rather than the rule and the audit committee may modify or withdraw this delegated authority at any time the audit committee determines that it is appropriate to do so. Fee levels for all Covered Services to be provided by the Independent Auditor and pre-approved under this Policy will be established annually by the audit committee and set forth in the Service Pre-Approval Documents. Any increase in pre-approved fee levels will require specific pre-approval by the audit committee (or the Chairman pursuant to delegated authority).

The terms and fees of the annual Audit services engagement for the Fund are subject to the specific pre-approval of the audit committee. The audit committee (or the Chairman pursuant to delegated authority) will approve, if necessary, any changes in terms, conditions or fees resulting from changes in audit scope, Fund structure or other matters. In addition to the annual Audit services engagement specifically approved by the audit committee, any other Audit services for the Fund not listed in the Service Pre-Approval Document for the respective period must be specifically pre-approved by the audit committee (or the Chairman pursuant to delegated authority). Audit-Related services are assurance and related services that are not required for the audit, but are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of the financial statements of the registrant and, to the extent they are Covered Services, the other Covered Entities (as defined in the Joint Audit Committee Charter) or that are traditionally performed by the Independent Auditor. Audit-Related services that are Covered Services and are not listed in the Service Pre-Approval Document for the respective period must be specifically pre-approved by the audit committee (or the Chairman pursuant to delegated authority). The audit committee believes that the Independent Auditor can provide Tax services to the Covered Entities such as tax compliance, tax planning and tax advice without impairing the auditor’s independence. However, the audit committee will not permit the retention of the Independent Auditor in connection with a transaction initially recommended by the Independent Auditor, the sole business purpose of which may be tax avoidance and the tax treatment of which may not be supported in the Internal Revenue Code and related regulations. Tax services that are Covered Services and are not listed in the Service Pre-Approval Document for the respective period must be specifically pre-approved by the audit committee (or the Chairman pursuant to delegated authority). All Other services that are covered and are not listed in the Service Pre-Approval Document for the respective period must be specifically pre-approved by the audit committee (or the Chairman pursuant to delegated authority). Requests or applications to provide Covered Services that require approval by the audit committee (or the Chairman pursuant to delegated authority) must be submitted to the audit committee or the Chairman, as the case may be, by both the Independent Auditor and the Chief Financial Officer of the respective Covered Entity, and must include a joint statement as to whether, in their view, (a) the request or application is consistent with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on auditor independence and (b) the requested service is or is not a non-audit service prohibited by the SEC. A request or application submitted to the Chairman between scheduled meetings of the audit committee should include a discussion as to why approval is being sought prior to the next regularly scheduled meeting of the audit committee. (e)(2) None of the services described in each of Items 4(b) through (d) were approved by the audit committee pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X.

Conflicts of Interest |
| --- |
| BlackRock, Inc. and its affiliates
(collectively, herein “BlackRock”) has built a professional
working environment, firm-wide compliance culture and compliance procedures
and systems designed to protect against potential incentives that may
favor one account over another. BlackRock has adopted policies and procedures
that address the allocation of investment opportunities, execution of
portfolio transactions, personal trading by employees and other potential
conflicts of interest that are designed to ensure that all client accounts
are treated equitably over time. Nevertheless, BlackRock furnishes investment
management and advisory services to numerous clients in addition to the
Fund, and BlackRock may, consistent with applicable law, make investment
recommendations to other clients or accounts (including accounts which
are hedge funds or have performance or higher fees paid to BlackRock,
or in which portfolio managers have a personal interest in the receipt
of such fees), which may be the same as or different from those made
to the Fund. In addition, BlackRock, its affiliates and any officer,
director, stockholder or employee may or may not have an interest in
the securities whose purchase and sale BlackRock recommends to the Fund.
BlackRock, or any of its affiliates, or any officer, director, stockholder,
employee or any member of their families may take different actions than
those recommended to the Fund by BlackRock with respect to the same securities.
Moreover, BlackRock may refrain from rendering any advice or services
concerning securities of companies of which any of BlackRock’s (or
its affiliates’) officers, directors or employees are directors
or officers, or companies as to which BlackRock or any of its affiliates
or the officers, directors and employees of any of them has any substantial
economic interest or possesses material non-public information. Each
portfolio manager also may manage accounts whose investment strategies
may at times be opposed to the strategy utilized for the Fund. In this
connection, it should be noted that certain portfolio managers currently

| Portfolio Manager Compensation |
| The
portfolio manager compensation program of BlackRock is critical to
BlackRock’s ability to attract and retain the most talented asset
management professionals. This program ensures that compensation is
aligned with maximizing investment returns and it provides a competitive
pay opportunity for competitive performance. Compensation Program The
elements of total compensation for BlackRock portfolio managers are:
fixed base salary, annual performance-based cash and stock compensation
(cash and stock bonus) and other benefits. BlackRock has balanced these
components of pay to provide portfolio managers with a powerful incentive
to achieve consistently superior investment performance. By design,
portfolio manager compensation levels fluctuate — both up and
down —
with the relative investment performance of the portfolios that they
manage. Base Salary Under
the BlackRock approach, like that of many asset management firms, fixed
base salaries represent a relatively small portion of a portfolio manager’s
total compensation. This approach serves to enhance the motivational
value of the performance-based (and therefore variable) compensation
elements of the compensation program. Performance-Based Compensation BlackRock
believes that the best interests of investors are served by recruiting
and retaining exceptional asset management talent and managing their
compensation within a consistent and disciplined framework that emphasizes
pay for performance in the context of an intensely competitive market
for talent. To that end, the portfolio manager incentive compensation
is based on a formulaic compensation program. |

BlackRock’s formulaic portfolio manager compensation program includes: pre-tax investment performance relative to the appropriate competitors or benchmarks over 1-, 3- and 5-year performance periods and a measure of operational efficiency. If a portfolio manager’s tenure is less than 5 years, performance periods will reflect time in position. Portfolio managers are compensated based on products they manage. For these purposes, the performance of the Fund is compared to the Lipper Closed-end General Leveraged Municipal Debt Funds classification. A smaller discretionary element of portfolio manager compensation may include consideration of: financial results, expense control, profit margins, strategic planning and implementation, quality of client service, market share, corporate reputation, capital allocation, compliance and risk control, leadership, workforce diversity, supervision, technology and innovation. All factors are considered collectively by BlackRock management. Cash Bonus Performance-based compensation is distributed to portfolio managers in a combination of cash and stock. Typically, the cash bonus, when combined with base salary, represents more than 60% of total compensation for the portfolio managers. Stock Bonus A portion of the dollar value of the total annual performance-based bonus is paid in restricted shares of stock of BlackRock, Inc. (the “Company”). Paying a portion of annual bonuses in stock puts compensation earned by a portfolio manager for a given year “at risk” based on the Company’s ability to sustain and improve its performance over future periods. The ultimate value of stock bonuses is dependent on future Company stock price performance. As such, the stock bonus aligns each portfolio manager’s financial interests with those of the Company’s shareholders and encourages a balance between short-term goals and long-term strategic objectives. Management strongly believes that providing a significant portion of competitive performance-based compensation in stock is in the best interests of investors and shareholders. This approach ensures that portfolio managers participate as shareholders in both the “downside risk” and “upside opportunity” of the Company’s performance. Portfolio managers, therefore, have a direct incentive to protect the Company’s reputation for integrity. Other Benefits Portfolio managers are also eligible to participate in broad-based plans offered generally to BlackRock employees, including broad-based retirement, 401(k), health, and other employee benefit plans. For example, BlackRock, Inc. has created a variety of incentive savings plans in which BlackRock employees are eligible to participate, including a 401(k) plan, the BlackRock Retirement Savings Plan (RSP) and the BlackRock Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP). The employer contribution components of the RSP include a company match equal to 50% of the first 6% of eligible pay contributed to the plan capped at $4,000 per year, and a company retirement contribution equal to 3% of eligible compensation, plus an additional contribution of 2% for any year in which BlackRock has positive net operating income. The RSP offers a range of investment options, including registered investment companies managed by the firm. Company contributions follow the investment direction set by participants for their own contributions or absent, employee investment direction, are invested into a stable value fund. The ESPP allows for investment in BlackRock common stock at a 5% discount on the fair market value of the stock on the purchase

Annual participation in the ESPP is limited to the purchase of 1,000
shares or a dollar value of $25,000. Each portfolio manager is
eligible to participate in these plans. (a)(4) Beneficial

of October 31, 2007, neither of Messrs. Jaeckel or O’Connor
