   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1. The Partnership

Dean   Witter  Realty  Income  Partnership  I,
L.P.   (the "Partnership") is a limited
partnership organized under  the laws  of
the  State of Delaware in 1983.  The
Partnership's
fiscal year ends on October 31.

The  Partnership's  records are maintained  on
the  accrual basis   of  accounting  for
financial  reporting  and   tax purposes.

Net  income per Unit of limited partnership
interest amounts
are  calculated  by  dividing net income
allocated  to  the Limited                                   Partners,  in
accordance  with  the   Partnership
Agreement,   by  the  weighted  average  number
of   Units outstanding.

In  the  opinion  of management, the
accompanying  financial
statements,  which  have  not  been  audited,
include all
adjustments necessary to present fairly the
results for  the interim period.  Except for the
1998 gains on sales of  real estate,                        such  adjustments
consist only of normal  recurring
accruals.

These  financial  statements should be read  in
conjunction with  the  annual  financial
statements  and  notes  thereto included  in
the Partnership's annual report on  Form  10-K
filed  with the Securities and Exchange
Commission  for  the year  ended  October 31,
1998. Operating results of  interim periods                 may not be
indicative of the operating results  for
the entire year.

2. Related Party Transactions

An  affiliate  of  the  Managing  General
Partner  provided property  management  services
for  the  North  Lake  Plaza property  in
fiscal 1999, and the North Lake Plaza,  Carmel
Park and Westwood 10 (both sold December 1997)
properties in fiscal  1998. The Partnership paid
the affiliate  management fees                           of   approximately
$9,000 and $23,000 for  the  three
months ended January 31, 1999 and 1998,
respectively.  These amounts are included in
property operating expenses.

Another  affiliate of the Managing General
Partner  performs
administrative   functions,   processes
certain   investor transactions   and   prepares
tax   information   for                                  the
Partnership. For the three months ended January
31, 1999 and 1998,  the  Partnership incurred
approximately  $34,000  and $48,000,
respectively, for these services. These amounts
are included in general and administrative
expenses.

As  of January 31, 1999, the affiliates were
owed a total of approximately $15,000 for these
services.

ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
       FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
       OPERATIONS
       
Liquidity and Capital Resources

The  Partnership  raised $92,780,000 in  a
public  offering which  was terminated in 1984.
The Partnership has no plans to raise additional
capital.

The  Partnership  purchased  six  properties
and  made  one investment in the partnership
which owned the Century Square property on an
all-cash basis. The Partnership's acquisition
program  has been completed.  No additional
investments  are planned.
As  a  result  of the 1998 property sales,
Partnership  cash flow from operations decreased
during the three-month period ended January 31,
1999 as compared to 1998.
The Managing General Partner is currently
marketing for sale the  North  Lake  Plaza
property,  with  the  objective  of completing
the property sale in fiscal 1999. However,
there can be no assurance that this property
will be sold.
Currently,  the  vacancy  rate  in  the  retail
market   in Altamonte  Springs, Florida, the
location of the North  Lake Plaza  Shopping
Center, is approximately  10%,  and  market
rental  rates  continue to be stable.   However,
developers continue  to break ground on new
retail projects  throughout the  Central Florida
region, and many real estate  investors consider
sub-markets  such  as  Altamonte  Springs  to
be overbuilt.  During the three months ended
January 31,  1999, occupancy  at  the  property
increased  slightly  to   85%. Development  of
nearby office projects  and  the  scheduled
expansion  of  North  Lake  Boulevard  (which
borders the
shopping center) are anticipated to increase
traffic at  the property.   The lease for Home
Depot (for approximately  50% of  the
property's space) is scheduled to expire  in
2003. Home  Depot  continues to sub-lease its
space to  Burlington Coat  Factory  but remains
obligated to pay rent  under  the lease.  The
lease of Marshalls Inc., (for approximately  21%
of the space) is schedule to expire in 2002.



        DEAN WITTER REALTY INCOME PARTNERSHIP I,

L.P.

During  the three months ended January 31, 1999,
the  North Lake  Plaza  property  generated
positive  cash  flow  from operations,  and  it
is anticipated that the  property  will continue
to  do  so  during  the  period  the
Partnership continues to own it.


During  the  three  months  ended  January  31,
1999,   the
Partnership's  capital expenditures exceeded its
cash  flow from operations. This deficiency was
funded from Partnership cash reserves.

The    capital   expenditures   incurred,
which    totaled approximately  $175,000,  were
for tenant  improvements  and leasing
commissions at the North Lake Plaza property.

The  Partnership did not pay any cash
distributions   during the  three months ended
January 31, 1999.  Generally, future cash
distributions will be paid from proceeds
received from the sale of the North Lake Plaza
property and cash reserves.

As  of January 31, 1999, the Partnership has
commitments  to fund  approximately $40,000 of
capital expenditures  at  the North Lake Plaza
property.

The Partnership believes that its cash reserves
are adequate for its needs in fiscal 1999.

Except  as discussed above and in the
consolidated financial
statements, the Managing General Partner is not
aware of any trends or events, commitments or
uncertainties that may have a material impact on
liquidity.
Operations
Fluctuations in the Partnership's operating
results for  the three-month  period ended
January 31, 1999  as  compared  to 1998 were
primarily attributable to the following:
During  the  three  months ended January  31,
1999,  rental income,   property  operating
expenses,  and  general   and administrative
expenses decreased as a result  of  the  1998
sales  of  the  Westwood  10, Carmel  Park,  and
Harborgate properties.


  DEAN WITTER REALTY INCOME PARTNERSHIP I, L.P.
                        
The  gains  on sales of real estate in fiscal
1998  resulted from the  sales  of  the  Carmel
Park  and  Westwood   10
properties.

Interest and other income decreased in fiscal
1999 primarily because  the  Partnership earned
interest  in 1998  on  the proceeds  from  the
sales of properties until such  proceeds were
distributed to Limited Partners.

Depreciation and amortization expenses decreased
in  fiscal 1999  due  to  the sale of the
Harborgate property  in  July 1998.

Inflation

Inflation  has  been  consistently low  during
the  periods presented in the financial
statements and, as a result,  has not  had  a
significant  effect on the  operations  of  the
Partnership or its properties.
