NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
September 30, 1997
 
 
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
 
DEFINITION OF SPECIAL TERMS:
Capitalized terms used in this report have the same meaning as those terms have
in the Partnership's Registration Statement filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission on Form S-11. Definitions of these terms are contained in
Article III of the First Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership,
which is included in the Registration Statement and incorporated herein by
reference.
 
ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). Under this method of accounting,
revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when incurred.
 
Preparation of the Partnership's financial statements in conformity with GAAP
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 those estimates.
 
The financial information included in these financial statements is unaudited;
however, in management's opinion, all adjustments (consisting of only normal,
recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the results of
operations for the periods included have been made. Results of operations for
the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 1997, are not necessarily
indicative of the operating results for the year ending December 31, 1997.
 
The financial statements include the Partnership's 50% interest in a joint
venture with an Affiliated partnership. This joint venture was formed for the
purpose of acquiring a 100% interest in 1800 Sherman Office Building and is
operated under the common control of the General Partner and an Affiliate of
the General Partner. Accordingly, the Partnership's pro rata share of the
venture's revenues, expenses, assets, liabilities and Partners' capital is
included in the financial statements.
 
Commercial rental property is recorded at cost, net of any provisions for value
impairment, and depreciated (exclusive of amounts allocated to land) on the
straight-line method over its estimated useful life. Lease acquisition fees are
recorded at cost and amortized on the straight-line method over the life of
each respective lease. Repair and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred;
expenditures for improvements are capitalized and depreciated over the
estimated life of such improvements.
 
The Partnership evaluates its rental property when conditions exist which may
indicate that it is probable that the sum of expected future cash flows
(undiscounted) from such property is less than its carrying basis. Upon
determination that a permanent impairment has occurred, the carrying basis of
the rental property is reduced to its estimated fair value. Management was not
aware of any indicator that would result in a significant impairment loss
during the periods reported.
 
Cash equivalents are considered all highly liquid investments with a maturity
of three months or less when purchased.
 
Certain reclassifications have been made to the previously reported 1996
financial statements in order to provide comparability with the 1997 financial
statements. These reclassifications had no effect on net income or Partners'
Capital.
 
Reference is made to the Partnership's annual report for the year ended
December 31, 1996, for a description of other accounting policies and
additional details of the Partnership's financial condition, results of
operations, changes in Partners' capital and changes in cash balances for the
year then ended. The details provided in the notes thereto have not changed
except as a result of normal transactions in the interim or as otherwise
disclosed herein.
 
2. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS:
 
In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, commencing with the fiscal
quarter in which the Minimum Subscription Closing Date occurred (the quarter
ended March 31, 1989), distributable Cash Flow (as defined in the Partnership
Agreement), if any, is distributed 90% to the Limited Partners and 10% to the
General Partner. For the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 1997, the
General Partner was entitled to distributable Cash Flow (as defined in the
Partnership Agreement) of $12,900 and $38,700, respectively.
 
In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, Losses (exclusive of Losses from
a Major Capital Event) are allocated 1% to the General Partner and 99% to the
Limited Partners as a group. Losses from a Major Capital Event, including any
provisions for value impairment, are allocated prior to giving effect to any
distribution of Sale or Refinancing Proceeds from such Major Capital Event;
first, to the General Partner and Limited Partners with positive balances in
their Capital Accounts, in proportion to and to the extent of such positive
balances; and second, the balance, if any, 1% to the General Partner and 99% to
the Limited Partners as a group. Profits (exclusive of Profits from a Major
Capital Event) are allocated; first, in accordance with the ratio in which Cash
Flow (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) was distributable among the
Partners for such fiscal year, to the extent of such Cash Flow (as defined in
the Partnership Agreement); provided, however, that if the Partnership makes no
distributions of Cash Flow (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) for such
fiscal year, then such Profits are allocated 1% to the General Partner and 99%
to the Limited Partners as a group; and second, the balance, if any, 1% to the
General Partner and 99% to the Limited Partners as a group. Profits from a
Major Capital Event are allocated prior to giving effect to any distribution of
Sale or Refinancing Proceeds from such Major Capital Event; first, to the
General Partner and Limited Partners with negative balances in their Capital
Accounts, in proportion to and to the extent of such negative balances; second,
in proportion to and to the extent of the amounts, if any, necessary to make
the positive balance in the Capital Account of each Limited Partner equal to
the Capital Investment of such Limited Partner; third, in proportion to and to
the extent of the amounts, if any, necessary to make the positive balance in
the Capital Account of each Limited Partner equal to the Capital Investment of
such Limited Partner, plus an amount equal to a cumulative, simple return of 6%
per annum on the Capital Investment from time to time of such Limited Partner
from the date on which the investment in the Partnership was made (less amounts
previously returned by way of Cash Flow (as defined in the Partnership
Agreement) and Sale or Refinancing Proceeds in
 
                                                                               4

payment of said cumulative return); and fourth, any remaining Profits are
allocated 17% to the General Partner and 83% to the Limited Partners as a
group. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the interest of the General
Partner in each material item of Partnership income, gain, loss, deduction or
credit will be equal to at least 1% of each such item at all times during the
existence of the Partnership. For the quarter and nine months ended September
30, 1997, the General Partner was allocated Profits of $11,500 and $32,500,
respectively.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
Reference is made to the Partnership's annual report for the year ended
December 31, 1996 for a discussion of the Partnership's business.
 
OPERATIONS
The table below is a recap of the Partnership's share of certain operating
results of its remaining property, 1800 Sherman Office Building ("1800
Sherman"), for the quarters and nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996.
The discussion following the table should be read in conjunction with the
financial statements and notes thereto appearing in this report.

(a) Excludes certain income and expense items which are not directly related to
    individual property operating results such as interest income and general
    and administrative expenses.
 
Unless otherwise disclosed, discussions of fluctuations between 1997 and 1996
refer to both the quarters and nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996.
 
Net income decreased by $71,300 and $4,200 for the quarter and nine months
ended September 30, 1997 when compared to the quarter and nine months ended
September 30, 1996, respectively. The decreases in net income were primarily
the result of increases in real estate tax expense, partially offset by
decreases in repairs and maintenance expenses at 1800 Sherman.
 
Rental revenues increased by $8,200 or 2.1% and $3,100 or 0.3% for the quarter
and nine months ended September 30, 1997 when compared to the quarter and nine
months ended September 30, 1996, respectively. The increases were primarily the
result of an increase in base rental revenues which was the result of an
increase in the average occupancy rate. The increases were partially offset by
a decrease in real estate tax escalation income which was the result of actual
1995 credits for overpayments due to tenants, paid in 1996, being less than
estimated.
 
Real estate tax expense increased by $83,000 and $48,300 for the quarterly and
nine-month periods under comparison, respectively. These increases were
primarily the result of an adjustment made in 1996 to adjust for a reduction in
1996 taxes due to the successful appeal of the 1995 tax year liability. Also
contributing to the increases was an increase in the estimated 1997 tax
liability.
 
Repair and maintenance expenses decreased by $8,500 and $28,900 for the quarter
and nine months ended September 30, 1997 when compared to the quarter and nine
months ended September 30, 1996, respectively. The decreases were primarily due
to reduced cleaning costs, resulting from a change in the day porter, and a
decrease in electrical repairs.
 
To maintain the occupancy level at 1800 Sherman, the General Partner, through
its Affiliated asset and property management group, continues to take the
following actions: 1) implementation of marketing programs, including hiring of
third-party leasing agents or providing on-site leasing personnel, advertising,
direct mail campaigns and development of building brochures; 2) early renewal
of existing tenant's leases and addressing any expansion needs these tenants
may have; 3) promotion of local broker events and networking with local
brokers; 4) cold-calling other businesses and tenants in the market area; and
5) providing rental concessions or competitively pricing rental rates depending
on market conditions.
 
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
One of the Partnership's objectives is to dispose of its property when market
conditions allow for the achievement of the maximum possible sales price. In
the interim, the Partnership continues to manage and maintain its remaining
property. Notwithstanding the Partnership's intention relative to the sale of
its property, another primary objective of the Partnership is to provide cash
distributions to Partners from Partnership operations. To the extent cash
distributions to Partners exceed net income, such excess distributions will be
treated as a return of capital. Cash Flow (as defined in the Partnership
Agreement) is generally not equal to net income or cash flows as determined by
generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), since certain items are
treated differently under the Partnership Agreement than under GAAP. Management
believes that to facilitate a clear understanding of the Partnership's
operations, an analysis of Cash Flow (as defined in the Partnership Agreement)
should be examined in conjunction with an analysis of net income or cash flows
as determined by GAAP. The following table includes a reconciliation of Cash
Flow (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) to cash flows provided by
operating activities as determined by GAAP. Such amounts are not indicative of
actual distributions to Partners and should not be considered as an alternative
to the results disclosed in the Statements of Income and Expenses and Cash
Flow.

Cash Flow (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) remained relatively
unchanged for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 when compared to the
nine months ended September 30, 1996.
 
The increase in the Partnership's cash position of $439,200 was primarily the
result of a reduction in the Partnership's investments in debt securities.
Distributions to Partners slightly exceeded cash generated by operating
activities.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
 
when compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1996 was primarily the
result of the timing of the payment of certain expenses.
 
Net cash (used for) provided by investing activities changed from $(518,500)
for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 to $471,400 for the nine months
September 30, 1997. The change was primarily the result of the decrease in
investments in debt securities. For the nine months ended September 30, 1997,
the Partnership spent $24,900 for building and tenant improvements and leasing
costs and has projected to spend approximately $35,000 for the remainder of
1997. The General Partner believes these improvements and leasing costs are
necessary in order to increase and/or maintain occupancy in a competitive
market and to maximize rental rates charged to new and renewing tenants.
 
The increase in net cash used for financing activities of $7,200 for the nine-
month periods under comparison was primarily the result of a slight increase in
distributions paid to Partners.
 
The General Partner continues to take a conservative approach to projections of
future rental income in its determination of adequate levels of cash reserves
due to the anticipated capital, tenant improvement and leasing costs that may
be necessary to be made at the Partnership's property. As a result, cash
continues to be retained to supplement working capital reserves. Cash Flow (as
defined in the Partnership Agreement) retained to supplement working capital
reserves amounted to $128,200 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997.
 
Distributions to Limited Partners for the quarter ended September 30, 1997 were
declared in the amount of $116,200 or $0.80 per Unit. Cash distributions are
made 60 days after the last day of each fiscal quarter. The amount of future
distributions to Partners will ultimately be dependent upon the performance of
1800 Sherman as well as the General Partner's determination of the amount of
cash necessary to supplement working capital reserves. Accordingly, there can
be no assurance as to the amounts of future cash for distributions to Partners.
 
Based upon the current estimated value of its assets, net of its outstanding
liabilities, together with its expected operating results and capital
expenditure requirements, the General Partner believes that the Partnership's
cumulative distributions to its Limited Partners from inception through the
termination of the Partnership will be less than such Limited Partners'
original Capital Contribution.
