Item 2.        Management's Discussion and Analysis of
               Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

               (1)  Liquidity

                     As of September 30, 1998, Registrant had cash  of
$28,750.   Cash  generated from operations is used primarily  to  fund
operating  expenses  and  debt service.  If cash  flow  proves  to  be
insufficient,   the   Registrant  will  attempt  to   negotiate   loan
modifications with the various lenders in order to remain  current  on
all  obligations.   The  Registrant is not  aware  of  any  additional
sources of liquidity.

                      As   of  September  30,  1998,  Registrant   had
restricted  cash  of $541,262 consisting primarily of  funds  held  as
security  deposits,  replacement reserves and escrows  for  taxes  and
insurance.  As a consequence of the restrictions as to use, Registrant
does not deem these funds to be a source of liquidity.

                     In  recent  years  the  Registrant  has  realized
significant losses, including the foreclosure of two properties and  a
substantial reduction of interest in a third property.  At the present
time,  all  remaining  properties are  able  to  pay  their  operating
expenses  and  debt service including two of the six properties  where
the  mortgages  are  basically "cash-flow"  mortgages,  requiring  all
available cash after payment of operating expenses to be paid  to  the
first mortgage holder.  None of the properties are currently producing
a material amount of revenues in excess of operating expenses and debt
service.  Therefore, it is unlikely that any cash will be available to
the Registrant to pay its general and administrative expenses.

                     It  is the Registrant's intention to continue  to
hold  the  properties until they can no longer meet the  debt  service
requirements and the properties are foreclosed, or the market value of
the  properties increases to a point where they can be sold at a price
which  is  sufficient to repay the underlying indebtedness  (principal
plus accrued interest).

               (2)  Capital Resources

                     Due  to the relatively recent rehabilitations  of
the   properties,  any  capital  expenditures  needed  are   generally
replacement  items  and  are funded out of  cash  from  operations  or
replacement reserves, if any.  Registrant is not aware of any  factors
which  would  cause historical capital expenditure levels  not  to  be
indicative of capital requirements in the future and accordingly, does
not  believe that it will have to commit material resources to capital
investment for the foreseeable future.

               (3)  Results of Operations

                     During  the  third  quarter of  1998,  Registrant
incurred  a  net  loss  of $1,055,724 ($41.05 per limited  partnership
unit) compared to a net loss of $84,138 ($3.27 per limited partnership
unit) for the same period in 1997.  For the first nine months of 1998,
the  Registrant incurred a net loss of $1,894,421 ($73.66 per  limited
partnership  unit)  compared to a net loss of $1,620,166  ($63.00  per
limited partnership unit) for the same period in 1997.

                     Rental  income increased $5,130 from $565,930  in
the third quarter of 1997 to $571,060 in the same period in 1998.  The
increase from the third quarter of 1997 to the same period in 1998  is
due  mainly  to increases at Canal House, Firehouse Square,  Roseland,
and Mater Dolorosa.

                    Rental income decreased $51,537 from $1,775,668 in
the  first  nine  months of 1997 to $1,724,131 in the same  period  in
1998.   The  decrease from the first nine months of 1997 to  the  same
period  in 1998 is due mainly to the foreclosure of Locke Mill  and  a
decrease  at Strehlow Terrace partially offset by increases  at  Canal
House, Firehouse Square, and Mater Dolorosa.

                     Other income decreased $205,643 from $205,643  in
the  first nine months of 1997 to $0 in the same period in 1998.   The
decrease from the first nine months of 1997 to the same period in 1998
is  due  to  the  sale of the interest in Strehlow Terrace  Apartments
Limited  Partnership, as referred to in the Form  10-K  for  the  year
ended December 31, 1997.

                      Expenses  for  rental  operations  increased  by
$10,144 from $200,619 in the third quarter of 1997 to $210,763 in  the
same period in 1998.  The increase is mainly the result of an increase
in  maintenance expense at Mater Dolorosa and an increase in wages and
salary expense at Strehlow Terrace partially offset by the foreclosure
of  Locke  Mill  and  a  decrease in maintenance expense  at  Strehlow
Terrace.   At  Mater Dolorosa, maintenance expense  increased  due  to
deferred maintenance performed at the property in the third quarter of
1998 and at Strehlow Terrace, wages and salaries expense increased due
to cost of living adjustments given to the employees.

                      Expenses  for  rental  operations  increased  by
$10,964 from $775,645 in the first nine months of 1997 to $786,609  in
the  same  period in 1998.  The increase is mainly the  result  of  an
increase  in  maintenance expense at both Mater Dolorosa and  Strehlow
Terrace  and an increase in wages and salary expense at Mater Dolorosa
partially  offset  by the foreclosure of Locke Mill.   At  both  Mater
Dolorosa  and Strehlow Terrace, maintenance expense increased  due  to
deferred  maintenance  performed at the property  in  the  first  nine
months  of  1998  and  at Mater Dolorosa, wages and  salaries  expense
increased due to cost of living adjustments given to the employees.

                     Depreciation  and amortization expense  increased
$17,507 from $271,574 in the third quarter of 1997 to $289,081 in  the
same  period  in  1998.   The  increase  is  due  to  an  increase  in
amortization  expense at Firehouse Square due to the  amortization  of
leasing  commissions  incurred  during  1997  partially  offset  by  a
decrease at Roseland.

                     Depreciation  and amortization expense  decreased
$49,120 from $916,362 in the first nine months of 1997 to $867,242  in
the  same  period in 1998.  The decrease is due to the foreclosure  of
Locke Mill combined with a decrease at Roseland partially offset by an
increase  in  amortization  expense at Firehouse  Square  due  to  the
amortization of leasing commissions incurred during 1997.

                      Interest  expense  increased  by  $951,095  from
$112,825 in the third quarter of 1997 to $1,063,920 in the same period
in  1998 and increased $832,678 from $944,104 in the first nine months
of 1997 to $1,776,782 for  the same period in 1998.  The increase from
the  third  quarter  and the first nine months of  1997  to  the  same
periods  of  1998  is mainly due to prepayment penalties  incurred  in
connection with refinancing of the first mortgages at Canal House  and
Firehouse Square partially offset by the foreclosure of Locke Mill  in
March 1997.

                      Losses  incurred  during  the  quarter  at   the
Registrant's properties amounted to $974,000, compared to  a  loss  of
approximately $16,000 for the same period in 1997.  For the first nine
months  of  1998  the  Registrant's properties recognized  a  loss  of
$1,647,000 compared to approximately $1,536,000 for the same period in
1997.   Included  in  the loss for the first nine months  of  1997  is
$770,000  of extraordinary loss relating to the foreclosure  of  Locke
Mill.

                     In the third quarter of 1998, Registrant incurred
a  loss  of  $0 at Locke Mill, compared to a loss of $0 in  the  third
quarter  of  1997, and for the first nine months of 1998,  incurred  a
loss of $0 compared to a loss of $852,000 for the same period in 1997,
including $63,000 of depreciation expense.  Included in the  loss  for
the  first  nine  months  of 1997 is $770,000  of  extraordinary  loss
relating  to  the foreclosure of the property.  The loss  without  the
effect of the foreclosure for the first nine months of 1997 would have
been  $82,000.  The change in the loss from the first nine  months  of
1997  to  the  same  period in 1998 is due to the foreclosure  of  the
property on March 31, 1997.

                     In the third quarter of 1998, Registrant incurred
a  loss  of  $15,000  at  Roseland including $16,000  of  depreciation
expense,   compared  to  a  loss  of  $20,000  including  $19,000   of
depreciation in the third quarter of 1997; for the first  nine  months
of  1998, the Registrant incurred a loss of $41,000 including  $50,000
of  depreciation expense, compared to a loss of $56,000 for  the  same
period  in  1997,  including  $55,000 of  depreciation  expense.   The
decreased  loss  from the third quarter and the first nine  months  of
1997  to  the  same periods in 1998 is mainly due to  an  increase  in
rental  income due to an increase in the average rental  rates  and  a
decrease in depreciation expense due to the fact that certain personal
property was fully depreciated in the third quarter of 1997.

                     In the third quarter of 1998, Registrant incurred
a   loss  of  $348,000  at  Firehouse  Square  including  $70,000   of
depreciation and amortization expense, compared to a loss of  $126,000
including  $64,000  of depreciation and amortization  expense  in  the
third quarter of 1997 and, for the first nine months of 1998, incurred
a loss of $633,000 including $211,000 of depreciation and amortization
expense,  compared to a loss of $407,000 for the same period in  1997,
including  $192,000  of  depreciation and amortization  expense.   The
increase in the loss from the third quarter and the first nine  months
of  1997 to the same periods in 1998 is due to an increase in interest
and amortization expense partially offset an increase in rental income
due  to  an  increase in the average rental rates.   Interest  expense
increased  due to a prepayment penalty incurred in connection  with  a
refinancing   of  the  first  mortgage  loan.   Amortization   expense
increased  due  to  the  amortization of leasing commissions  incurred
during 1997.

                     In the third quarter of 1998, Registrant incurred
a  loss  of  less than $1,000 at Mater Dolorosa including  $32,000  of
depreciation  and amortization expense, compared to a loss  of  $4,000
including  $31,000  of depreciation and amortization  expense  in  the
third  quarter  of  1997.  The decrease in the  loss  from  the  third
quarter  of  1997 to the same period in 1998 is due to an increase  in
rental  income partially offset by an increase in maintenance expense.
The  increase  in rental income is due to an increase in  the  average
rental   rates.   Maintenance  expense  increased  due   to   deferred
maintenance performed at the property in the third quarter of 1998.

                     For the first nine months of 1998, the Registrant
incurred  a  loss  of $19,000 at Mater Dolorosa including  $95,000  of
depreciation  and amortization expense, compared to a loss  of  $5,000
for  the  same  period in 1997, including $95,000 of depreciation  and
amortization  expense.  The increase in the loss from the  first  nine
months  of  1997 to the same period in 1998 is due to an  increase  in
maintenance  and  wages and salaries expense partially  offset  by  an
increase  in  rental  income.  Maintenance expense  increased  due  to
deferred  maintenance  performed at the property  in  the  first  nine
months  of  1998.  Wages and salaries increased due to cost of  living
adjustments given to employees.  The increase in rental income is  due
to an increase in the average rental rates.

                     In  the  third  quarter of 1998,  the  Registrant
incurred  a  loss of $54,000 at Strehlow Terrace including $58,000  of
depreciation expense, compared to a loss of $55,000 including  $57,000
of  depreciation expense in the second quarter of 1997.  The  decrease
in  the loss from the third quarter of 1997 to the same period in 1998
is   due  to  a  decrease  in  maintenance  expense  due  to  deferred
maintenance  performed  in the third quarter of  1997  which  was  not
required  in the third quarter of 1998 partially offset by an increase
in  wages and salaries expense due to cost of living adjustments given
to employees.

                     For the first nine months of 1998, the Registrant
incurred a loss of $166,000 at Strehlow Terrace including $174,000  of
depreciation  expense,  compared to a loss of $146,000  for  the  same
period  in  1997, including $171,000 of depreciation and  amortization
expense.  The increase in the loss from the first nine months of  1997
to  the  same  period  in  1998 is due to an increase  in  maintenance
expense due to deferred maintenance performed in the first six  months
of 1998 combined with a decrease in rental income due to a decrease in
the average occupancy (95% to 88%).

                     In the third quarter of 1998, Registrant incurred
a  loss  of  $556,000 at Canal House including $93,000 of depreciation
and  amortization  expense, compared to income of  $189,000  including
$80,000 of depreciation expense in the third quarter of 1997 and,  for
the  first  nine  months of 1998, the Registrant incurred  a  loss  of
$788,000  including $279,000 of depreciation and amortization expense,
compared  to a loss of $70,000 for the same period in 1997,  including
$282,000 of depreciation expense.  The increase in the losses from the
third quarter and the first nine months of 1997 to the same periods in
1998 is due mainly to an increase in interest expense partially offset
by an increase in rental income.  Interest expense increased due to  a
prepayment  penalty incurred in connection with a refinancing  of  the
property.   Rental income increased due to an increase in the  average
rental rates.

                     In the third quarter of 1998, Registrant incurred
a  loss  of $3,000 at Saunders Apartments compared to a loss of $9,000
in the second quarter of 1997.  For the first nine months of 1998, the
Registrant incurred a loss of $17,000 at Saunders Apartments  compared
to  a  loss  $10,000  for  the same period in  1997.   The  Registrant
accounts for this investment on the equity method and the decrease  in
the  loss  is due to an overall increase in rental income  due  to  an
increase in the average rental rates.
