to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets
and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of June
30, 1997 and December 31, 1996, and reported amounts of revenues and expenses
for the six months and three months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996.  Actual
results could differ from these estimates.

recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position of the

months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 have been included.

                      FIRST INDUSTRIAL SECURITIES, L.P.
               ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                                      

     The following discussion and analysis of First Industrial Securities,
L.P.'s (the "Company")  financial condition and the results of operations
should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto
appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     At June 30, 1997 and 1996, the Company owned 19 properties with
approximately 2.2 million square feet.

COMPARISON OF SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997 TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996

     Total revenues decreased by $.2 million, or 3.3%, due primarily to a
slight decrease in occupancy.

     Property expenses, which include real estate taxes, repairs and
maintenance, property management, utilities, insurance and other expenses,
increased by $.3 million, or 19.1%.  This increase is due primarily to
additional snow removal expenses incurred in the Minneapolis and Harrisburg
metropolitan areas, and an increase in repair and maintenance expense and real
estate taxes in the majority of the Company's geographical markets.

COMPARISON OF THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997 TO THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30,
1996

     Total revenues decreased by $.3 million, or 10.9%, due primarily to a
slight decrease in occupancy.

     Property expenses, which include real estate taxes, repairs and
maintenance, property management, utilities, insurance and other expenses,
increased by $.1 million, or 7.0%.  This increase is due primarily to an
increase in real estate taxes in the majority of the Company's geographical
markets.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     Net cash provided by operating activities was $3.9 million for the six
months ended June 30, 1997 compared to $4.1 million for the six months ended
June 30, 1996.  The decrease is primarily due to the operations of the
properties as discussed in the results of operations above.

     Net cash used in investing activities was $.3 million for the six months
ended June 30, 1997 compared to $ .7 million for the six months ended June 30,
1996.  The majority of the cash used in investing activities was for capital
improvements of the Company's properties.

     Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30,
1997 consisted of preferred limited partner distributions of $2.0 million and a
general and limited partner distribution of $1.3 million.  Net cash used in
financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 1996 consisted of
preferred limited partner distributions of $2.0 million and a general limited
partner distribution of $.7 million.


     The Company has considered its short-term (less than one year) liquidity
requirements and the adequacy of its estimated cash flows from operations.  The
Company believes that its liquidity needs are to fund normal recurring
expenses, and pay the preferred limited partnership distribution and other
partnership distributions.  The Company anticipates that these needs will be
met with cash flows provided by operating activities.

     The Company expects to fund its long-term (greater than one year)
liquidity requirements for non-recurring capital improvements with its cash
flows from operations and in part with a deferred maintenance escrow
established in connection with the issuance of First Industrial Realty Trust,
Inc.'s Series A Preferred Stock which is included in restricted cash on the
balance sheet.
