        NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The  interim  condensed consolidated financial statements  included  herein
have  been  prepared by Duke Realty Limited Partnership (the "Partnership")
without  audit.  The  statements  have been  prepared  in  accordance  with
generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information.
Accordingly,  they  do  not  include all of the information  and  footnotes
required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial
statements.  In  the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting  of
normal  recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation
have   been  included.  These  financial  statements  should  be  read   in
conjunction  with the consolidated financial statements and  notes  thereto
included    in    the   Partnership's   Annual   Financial   Statements.

THE PARTNERSHIP

Duke Realty Limited Partnership (the "Partnership")  was  formed
on  October  4, 1993, when Duke Realty Investments, Inc. (the  "Predecessor
Company"  or  the "General Partner") contributed all of its properties  and
related  assets  and  liabilities along with the net  proceeds  of   $309.2
million  from  the issuance of an additional 14,000,833 shares  through  an
offering  (  "1993  Offering")  to  the  Partnership.  Simultaneously,  the
Partnership  completed the acquisition of Duke Associates,  a  full-service
commercial  real estate firm operating in the Midwest. The General  Partner
was  formed  in 1985 and qualifies as a real estate investment trust  under
provisions  of  the  Internal Revenue Code. In  connection  with  the  1993
Offering,  the  formation of the Partnership and the  acquisition  of  Duke
Associates, the General Partner effected a 1 for 4.2 reverse stock split of
its existing common shares. The General Partner is the sole general partner
of the Partnership and received 16,046,144 units of partnership interest in
exchange  for its original contribution which represented a 78.36% interest
in  the  Partnership. As part of the acquisition, Duke Associates  received
4,432,109  units of limited partnership interest ("Limited Partner  Units")
(together with the units of general partner interests, the ("Units")) which
represented a 21.64% interest in the Partnership. The Limited Partner Units
are exchangeable for shares of the General Partner's common stock on a one-
for-one basis subject generally to a one-year holding period.

The  service operations are conducted through Duke Realty Services  Limited
Partnership  ("DRSLP") and Duke Construction Limited Partnership  ("DCLP"),
in  which  the  Partnership  has  an 89% profits  interest  (after  certain
preferred  returns on partners' capital accounts) and effective control  of
their  operations.  The  consolidated  financial  statements  include   the
accounts   of   the  Partnership  and  its  majority-owned  or   controlled
subsidiaries.   The equity interests in these majority-owned or  controlled
subsidiaries  not  owned  by  the Partnership  are  reflected  as  minority
interests in the consolidated financial statements.

On  March  29, 1996, the General Partner issued 4,400,000 shares  (includes
400,000  shares  issued on April 4, 1996 related to  the  exercise  of  the
Underwriters' over-allotment option) of Common Stock through an  additional
offering  (  "1996  Offering") and received net proceeds  of  approximately
$125.3  million.  During  the  second quarter  1996,  the  General  Partner
implemented a direct  stock purchase and dividend reinvestment plan and 

                                   - 6 -
<PAGE>
received $829,000 of  net proceeds from the sale of 28,315 additional shares 
of Common Stock. The  General Partner contributed these combined proceeds to 
the Partnership in  exchange  for  additional  Units.  These  proceeds  were  
used  by  the Partnership to pay down its unsecured line of credit which had 
been used to fund current development and acquisition costs.

In April 1996, as a result of Unitholders exchanging their Units for shares
of  Common  Stock  of  the  General Partner  pursuant  to  the  Partnership
Agreement, the General Partner acquired a portion of the minority  interest
in  the Partnership through the issuance of 724,453 shares of Common  Stock
for  a  like number of Units. The acquisition of the minority interest  was
accounted  for under the purchase method with assets acquired  recorded  at
the fair market value of the General Partner's Common Stock on the date  of
acquisition.  The  acquisition amount of $21.1  million  was  allocated  to
rental properties based on their estimated fair values.

2. LINES OF CREDIT

The  Partnership  has a $150 million unsecured revolving  credit  facility
which  is available to fund current development costs and provide  working
capital.  The  revolving line of credit matures in April  1998  and  bears
interest  payable  at the 30-day London Interbank Offered  Rate  ("LIBOR")
plus 1.50%. The Partnership also has a demand $7 million secured revolving
credit  facility  which  is  available to provide  working  capital.  This
facility  bears  interest payable monthly at the 30-day  LIBOR  rate  plus
 .75%.  There were no outstanding borrowings under these facilities  as  of
June 30, 1996.
  
3. RELATED  PARTY  TRANSACTIONS

The  Partnership  provides  management, maintenance,  leasing, construction, 
and other tenant related  services  to properties  in  which certain 
executive officers have continuing  ownership interests.  The  Partnership 
was paid fees totaling $1.6 million  and  $1.3 million for such services for 
the six months ended June 30, 1996 and  1995, respectively.  Management  
believes the terms  for  such services are equivalent to those available 
in the market. The Partnership has an option to  purchase the executive 
officers' interest in each of these properties which expires October 2003.  
The  option  price  of  each  property  was established at the date the 
option was granted.

4. RECLASSIFICATIONS

Certain  1995  balances  have been reclassified to conform  with  the  1996
presentation.

5. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On  July  25, 1996, a quarterly distribution of $.51 per Unit was  declared
payable on August 30, 1996, to Unitholders of record on August 16, 1996.

In  July 1996, the Partnership issued $40 million of unsecured debt  at  an
interest  rate  of 7.28%. This debt matures in July 2000 and  the  proceeds
were  used  to  retire  amounts outstanding on the Partnership's  lines  of
credit.

  INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REVIEW REPORT
  --------------------------------------
  
  The Partners
  DUKE REALTY LIMITED PARTNERSHIP:
  
  We  have  reviewed the condensed consolidated balance  sheet  of  Duke
  Realty  Limited Partnership and subsidiaries as of June 30, 1996,  the
  related condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three 
  and six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, the related condensed 
  consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months ended
  June 30, 1996 and 1995, and the related condensed consolidated
  statement of partners' equity for the six months ended June 30, 1996. 
  These condensed consolidated financial statements are the responsibility
  of the Partnership's management.
  
  We  conducted  our review in accordance with standards established  by
  the  American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A  review  of
  interim   financial  information  consists  principally  of   applying
  analytical  review procedures to financial data, and making  inquiries
  of  persons  responsible for financial and accounting matters.  It  is
  substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with
  generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which  is  the
  expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a
  whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
  
  Based  on  our  review, we are not aware of any material modifications
  that should be made to the condensed consolidated financial statements
  referred to above for them to be in conformity with generally accepted
  accounting principles.
  
  We  have  previously  audited, in accordance with  generally  accepted
  auditing  standards,  the consolidated balance sheet  of  Duke  Realty
  Limited Partnership and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1995, and  the
  related  consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for  the
  year  then  ended  (not presented herein); and  in  our  report  dated
  January  31,  1996,  we  expressed an  unqualified  opinion  on  those
  consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set
  forth  in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as  of
  December  31,  1995 is fairly presented, in all material respects,  in
  relation  to  the consolidated balance sheet from which  it  has  been
  derived.

  ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
  AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
  
  OVERVIEW
  --------
  
  The  Partnership's operating results depend primarily upon income from
  the  rental operations of its industrial, office and retail properties
  located in its primary markets. This income from rental operations  is
  substantially   influenced  by  the  supply   and   demand   for   the
  Partnership's rental space in its primary markets.
  
  In  addition, the Partnership's continued growth is dependent upon its
  ability to maintain occupancy rates and increase rental rates  on  its
  in-service  portfolios and to continue development and acquisition  of
  additional rental properties. The Partnership's primary markets in the
  Midwest  have  continued  to offer strong and stable  local  economies
  compared  to  other  regions of the United States  and  have  provided
  attractive  new  development opportunities because  of  their  central
  location,  established  manufacturing base,  skilled  work  force  and
  moderate   labor   costs.  Consequently,  the  Partnership's   overall
  occupancy rate of its in-service portfolio has exceeded 93%  the  last
  two years and was at 92% at June 30, 1996. The Partnership expects  to
  continue to maintain its overall occupancy levels at comparable levels
  and  also  expects to be able to increase rental rates as  leases  are
  renewed or new leases are executed.  This stable occupancy as well  as
  increasing  rental rates should improve the Partnership's  results  of
  operations from its in-service properties. The Partnership's  strategy
  for continued growth also includes developing and acquiring additional
  rental  properties  in  its primary markets and expanding  into  other
  attractive Midwestern markets.
  
  The following table sets forth information regarding the Partnership's
  in-service portfolio of rental properties as of June 30, 1996 and 1995

  The  decrease in occupancy from 1995 to 1996 can be attributed to  the
  scheduled  lease  expiration  of a 90,000  square  foot  tenant  in  a
  downtown  Cincinnati office building and a recently  acquired  358,000
  square foot industrial facility that was unoccupied at June 30,  1996.
  In  July 1996, the Partnership re-leased approximately 204,000  square
  feet of such industrial facility.

<PAGE>                          
  Management expects occupancy of the in-service property portfolio to 
  remain stable because (i) only 5.1% and 8.5% of the Partnership's 
  occupied square footage is subject to leases expiring in the remainder
  of 1996 and in 1997, respectively, and (ii) the Partnership's renewal
  percentage averaged 65%, 73% and 65% in 1995, 1994 and 1993,
  respectively.
  
  The  following  table  reflects  the  Partnership's  lease  expiration
  schedule  as of June 30, 1996, including properties under development,

  rents  under  expiring leases (in thousands, except  per  square  foot

  This  stable occupancy, along with stable rental rates in each of  the
  Partnership's markets, will allow the in-service portfolio to continue
  to  provide  a comparable or increasing level of earnings from  rental
  operations. The Partnership also expects to realize growth in earnings
  from rental operations through  (i) the completion of  the 3.4 million
  square feet of properties under development at June 30, 1996 over  the
  next five quarters; (ii) the development and acquisition of additional
  rental properties in its primary markets; and (iii) the expansion into
  other attractive Midwestern markets.

  COMPARISON OF THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 TO THREE MONTHS
  --------------------------------------------------------------
  ENDED JUNE 30, 1995
  -------------------
  
  Rental Operations
  -----------------
  
  The   Partnership  increased  its  in-service  portfolio   of   rental
  properties from 144 properties comprising 15.2 million square feet  at
  June 30, 1995 to 220 properties comprising 23.2 million square feet at
  June  30,  1996 through the acquisition of 60 properties totaling  4.9
  million  square  feet  and the completion of  18  properties  and  two
  building expansions totaling 3.4 million square feet developed by  the
  Partnership.  The Partnership also disposed of two properties totaling
  226,000  square  feet.  These  76  net  additional  rental  properties
  primarily  account  for the $11.0 million increase  in  revenues  from
  Rental Operations from 1995 to 1996. The increase from 1995 to 1996 in
  rental  expenses, real estate taxes and depreciation and  amortization
  expense  is  also  a  result of the additional  76  in-service  rental
  properties.
   
  The  increase in equity in earnings of unconsolidated companies is due
  to  the  formation  of  a  joint venture on  December  28,  1995.  The
  Partnership  formed this joint venture (Dugan Realty L.L.C.)  with  an
  institutional  real  estate  investor  and  purchased  25   industrial
  buildings  totaling  approximately  2.3  million  square  feet.   Upon
  formation  of  the venture, the Partnership contributed  approximately
  1.4  million square feet of recently developed and acquired industrial
  properties,  113  acres  of recently acquired  land  held  for  future
  development  and  approximately $16.7 million  of  cash  for  a  50.1%
  interest in the joint venture with a total initial recorded investment
  of   approximately  $59.4  million.  In  May  1996,  the   Partnership
  contributed  a 600,000 square foot industrial building  to  the  joint
  venture   at  an  agreed  value  of  $13.9  million  and  received   a
  distribution  of  $6.935  million. The Partnership  accounts  for  its
  investment  in  this  joint venture on the equity method  because  the
  joint  venture partner's approval is required for all major  decisions
  and  the joint venture partner has equal control regarding the primary
  day-to-day operations of the venture.
  
  Interest  expense  increased  by  approximately  $1.8  million.   This
  increase was primarily because of interest expense on the $150 million
  of  unsecured  notes which the Partnership issued in  September  1995.
  These  notes bear interest at an effective rate of 7.46%. The proceeds
  from  these  notes were used to (i) retire the outstanding balance  of
  $35.0 million on the Partnership's line of credit;  (ii) retire $39.5
  million of mortgage debt which had a weighted average interest rate of
  6.08%  and  was scheduled to reset at a market interest  rate  in  the
  fourth  quarter  of  1995,  ; and (iii)and  to  fund  development  and
  acquisition of additional rental properties during the fourth  quarter
  of 1995.
  
  As  a  result  of  the  above-mentioned items,  earnings  from  rental
  operations  increased  $2.7 million from $9.2 million  for  the  three
  months ended June 30, 1995 to $11.9 million for the three months ended
  June 30, 1996.
  
  Service Operations
  ------------------
  
  Service Operation revenues increased from $4.3 million to $5.1 million
  for  the  three months ended June 30, 1996 as compared  to  the  three
  months ended June 30, 1995 primarily as a result of increases in 
  leasing fee revenue and construction management fee revenue because of 
  an increase in construction volume.

                                    - 11 -
<PAGE>  
  Service  Operation operating expenses increased from $2.7  million  to
  $3.5  million for the three months ended June 30, 1996 as compared  to
  the  three months ended June 30, 1995 primarily as a result of (i)  an
  increase  in operating expenses resulting from the overall  growth  of
  the  Partnership and (ii) a decrease in costs allocated to the  Rental
  Operations  segment because of a reduction in development and  leasing
  activity in the Partnership's owned properties for the quarter.
  
  As  a  result  of  the  above-mentioned items, earnings  from  Service
  Operations remained stable at approximately $1.6 million for the three
  months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995.
  
  Other Income (Expense)
  ----------------------
  
  Interest  income  decreased from $376,000 for the three  months  ended
  June  30,  1995 to $264,000 for the three months ended June  30,  1996
  primarily as a result of the temporary short-term investment of excess
  proceeds from the General Partner's equity offering in May 1995  which
  resulted  in  approximately $35 million of excess cash being  invested
  through June 30, 1995.
  
  During  the three months ended June 30, 1996, the Partnership  sold  a
  251,000  square foot corporate headquarters facility that it  recently
  completed for John Alden Life Insurance Company in Miami, Florida. The
  project  was  sold  for approximately $32.9 million  pursuant  to  the
  purchase  option  contained  in  John  Alden's  lease  agreement.  The
  Partnership  recognized a gain of approximately $1.6  million  on  the
  sale. Proceeds from this sale are being reinvested in new developments
  and acquisitions in the Partnership's core markets.
  
  Net Income
  ----------
  
  Net  income for the three months ended June 30, 1996 was $14.2 million
  compared  to  net income of $10.2 million for the three  months  ended
  June  30,  1995.  This increase results primarily from  the  operating
  result fluctuations in rental and service operations and earnings from
  property sales explained above.
  
  COMPARISON OF SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 TO SIX MONTHS ENDED
  ----------------------------------------------------------------
  JUNE 30, 1995
  -------------
  
  Rental Operations
  -----------------
  
  The  expansion  of  the  in-service rental property  portfolio  by  76
  additional  rental  properties from June 30, 1995  to  June  30,  1996
  primarily  accounts for the $22.1 million increase  in  revenues  from
  Rental Operations from 1995 to 1996. The increase from 1995 to 1996 in
  rental  expenses, real estate taxes and depreciation and  amortization
  expense  is  also  a  result of the additional  76  in-service  rental
  properties.
  
  The  increase in equity in earnings of unconsolidated companies is due
  to  the effect of the formation of Dugan Realty L.L.C. on December 28,
  1995, as discussed previously.
                                     - 12 -
<PAGE>
  Interest  expense  increased  by  approximately  $4.5  million.   This
  increase  was primarily because of the interest expense  on  the  $150
  million  of unsecured notes which the Partnership issued in  September
  1995. These notes bear interest at an effective rate of 7.46%.
  
  As  a  result  of  the  above-mentioned items,  earnings  from  rental
  operations  increased  $5.8 million from $17.3  million  for  the  six
  months  ended June 30, 1995 to $23.1 million for the six months  ended
  June 30, 1996.
  
  Service Operations
  ------------------
  
  Service Operation revenues increased from $8.2 million to $9.5 million
  for  the six months ended June 30, 1996 as compared to the six  months
  ended  June 30, 1995 primarily as a result of increases in maintenance
  fee  revenue  because  of winter weather conditions  and  construction
  management fee revenue because of an increase in construction volume.
  
  Service Operation expenses increased from $5.2 million to $6.7 million
  for  the six months ended June 30, 1996 as compared to the six  months
  ended  June  30,  1995 primarily as a result of  (i)  an  increase  in
  operating   expenses  resulting  from  the  overall  growth   of   the
  Partnership  and  (ii)  a decrease in costs allocated  to  the  Rental
  Operations  segment because of a reduction in development and  leasing
  activity  in  the Partnership's owned properties for  the  six  months
  ended June 30, 1996.
  
  As  a  result  of  the  above-mentioned items, earnings  from  Service
  Operations  decreased slightly from $3.0 million to $2.8  million  for
  the six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1996, respectively.
  
  Other Income (Expense)
  ---------------------
  
  Interest income decreased from $850,000 for the six months ended  June
  30,  1995 to $608,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1996 primarily
  as  a result of the temporary short-term investment of excess proceeds
  from  the General Partner's equity offering in May 1995 which resulted
  in  approximately  $35 million of excess cash being  invested  through
  June 30, 1995.
  
  During  the  six  months ended June 30, 1996, the Partnership  sold  a
  251,000  square foot corporate headquarters facility that it  recently
  completed for John Alden Life Insurance Company in Miami, Florida. The
  project  was  sold  for approximately $32.9 million  pursuant  to  the
  purchase  option  contained  in  John  Alden's  lease  agreement.  The
  Partnership  recognized a gain of approximately $1.6  million  on  the
  sale.
  
  Net Income
  ----------
  
  Net  income  for the six months ended June 30, 1996 was $25.7  million
  compared to net income of $19.0 million for the six months ended  June
  30,  1995.  This increase results primarily from the operating  result
  fluctuations  in  rental  and  service operations  and  earnings  from
  property sales explained above.

  LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
  
  Net  cash provided by operating activities totaling $39.1 million  and
  $40.6  million  for  the  six months ended June  30,  1996  and  1995,
  respectively,  represents  the primary source  of  liquidity  to  fund
  distributions to Unitholders and the other minority interests  and  to
  fund recurring costs associated with the renovation and re-letting  of
  the  Partnership's properties. The primary reason for the decrease  in
  net  cash  provided  by operating activities is  the  timing  of  cash
  receipts   and  payments  related  to  the  Partnership's  third-party
  construction  contracts. Excluding the impact  of  these  construction
  contracts,  net  cash provided by operating activities increased  from
  $29.2 million for six months ended June 30, 1995 to $42.4 million  for
  the six months ended June 30, 1996. This increase is primarily due to,
  as  discussed above under "Results of Operations," the  increase  in
  net  income  resulting from the expansion of the in-service  portfolio
  through development and acquisitions of additional rental properties.
   
  Net  cash  used  by  investing activities totaling $93.6  million  and
  $114.4  million  for  the six months ended June  30,  1996  and  1995,
  respectively, represents the investment of funds by the Partnership to
  expand its portfolio of rental properties through the development  and
  acquisition  of additional rental properties net of proceeds  received
  from earnings from property sales. During the six months ended June 30,
  1996,  the Partnership sold two properties and a small parcel of  land
  for  net  proceeds of $35.5 million. The sale of the John Alden  Miami
  building accounted for $32.9 million of these proceeds. In 1995, $98.2
  million  was invested in the development and acquisition of additional
  rental  properties.  In 1996, the investment in  the  development  and
  acquisition  of  additional  rental  properties  increased  to  $125.9
  million.  Included in the $125.9 million of net cash used by investing
  activities for the development and acquisition of rental properties is
  $53.3  million  related  to the acquisition of eight  suburban  office
  buildings  totaling 782,000 gross square feet in Cleveland, Ohio.  The
  purchase price of these eight buildings was approximately $76  million
  which  included the assumption of $23.1 million of mortgage debt.  The
  buildings  were 99% leased in the aggregate and are primarily  located
  in a prime submarket on Cleveland's southside which has a vacancy rate
  of  less  than  5%.  The  acquisition included  the  purchase  of  the
  operations  of  an  established  Cleveland  property  management   and
  development  partnership that allowed the Partnership  to  immediately
  have  a  presence  in  the  market.  This  acquisition  positions  the
  Partnership  to immediately pursue additional industrial and  suburban
  office  development and acquisition opportunities in  Cleveland.  Also
  included  in  net cash provided by investing activities  for  the  six
  months  ended  June  30,  1996 is the receipt  of  approximately  $4.9
  million  of  escrow  deposits  related to  one  of  the  Partnership's
  mortgage  loans  classified as net cash provided from  other  deferred
  costs and other assets.
  
  Net  cash provided by financing activities totaling $68.6 million  for
  the  six  months  ended  June  30, 1995 is  comprised  mainly  of  the
  contribution of proceeds from the General Partner's equity offering in
  May 1995 net of distributions to Unitholders. In 1996, the Partnership
  received the contribution of $126.1 million from the General Partner's
  1996 Offering and the dividend reinvestment plan which was used to pay
  down amounts outstanding on the unsecured line of credit.
  
  In  March 1994, the Partnership obtained a $60 million secured  credit
  facility which was available to fund development and acquisition of
  additional rental properties and to provide working capital as needed.
  In April 1995, the Partnership replaced the secured line of credit with
  a $100 million unsecured line of credit which matures in April 1998. In
  January 1996, the Partnership increased the unsecured line of credit to
  $150 million and reduced the borrowing rate to LIBOR plus 1.625%. In 
  July 1996, the borrowing rate was further reduced to LIBOR plus 1.50%
  as a result of an increase in the Partnership's investment grade debt
  rating from Moody's Rating Agency. The Partnership also has a demand $7
  million secured revolving credit facility which is available to provide
  working capital. This facility bears interest payable at the 30-day 
  LIBOR rate plus .75%.

  The  General  Partner and the Partnership currently have on  file  two
  Form  S-3  Registration  Statements with the Securities  and  Exchange
  Commission  ("Shelf Registrations") which have remaining  availability
  as  of June 30, 1996 of approximately $635 million to issue additional
  common  stock,  preferred  stock  or unsecured  debt  securities.  The
  General  Partner  and  the  Partnership  intend  to  issue  additional
  securities under these Shelf Registrations as capital needs  arise  to
  fund the development and acquisition of additional rental properties.
                                        
  The  total debt outstanding at June 30, 1996 consists of notes
  totaling $431.9 million with a weighted average interest rate of 7.55%
  maturing  at  various  dates through 2018. The  Partnership  has  $150
  million  of  unsecured  debt  and  $281.9  million  of  secured   debt
  outstanding  at  June 30, 1996.  Scheduled principal  amortization  of
  such debt totaled $1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 1996.
  
  Following  is  a  summary  of the scheduled  future  amortization  and
  maturities of the Partnership's indebtedness (in thousands):

  The  1996  maturities consist of $59.6 million of secured notes  which
  mature in October through December.  The Partnership currently intends
  to  repay  this  mortgage debt through the issuance of unsecured  debt
  securities  available under its Shelf Registrations. The  Partnership
  estimates  that  if  unsecured debt securities are  issued,  based  on
  current market interest rates, the rate on such debt would increase by
  approximately 2.0%.
                                        
  The  Partnership  intends to pay regular quarterly distributions  from
  net cash provided by operating activities. A quarterly distribution of
  $.51 per Unit was declared on July 25, 1996 payable on August 30, 1996
  to  Unitholders  of  record on August 16, 1996,  which  represents  an
  annualized distribution of $2.04 per Unit.

  FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS
  
  Management  believes  that  Funds From Operations  ("FFO"),  which  is
  defined  by the National Association of Real Estate Investment  Trusts
  as   net   income  or  loss  excluding  gains  or  losses  from   debt
  restructuring   and   sales   of  property   plus   depreciation   and
  amortization,   and   after   adjustments   for   minority   interest,
  unconsolidated  partnerships  and  joint  ventures  (adjustments   for
  minority interest, unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures  are
  calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis), is the industry standard
  for reporting the operations of real estate investment trusts.
  
  The  following table reflects the calculation of the Partnership's  FFO
  for the three and six months ended June 30 as follows (in thousands):

  The  increase in FFO for the three and six months ended June 30,  1996
  compared  to  the  three and six months ended June  30,  1995  results
  primarily  from the increased in-service rental property portfolio  as
  discussed  above  under "Results of Operations." The  following  table
  indicates  components of  such growth for each of the  three  and  six
  months ended June 30 as follows (in thousands):

  In  March 1995, NAREIT issued a clarification of its definition of FFO
  effective   for   years  beginning  after  December  31,   1995.   The
  clarification  provides that amortization of deferred financing  costs
  and depreciation of non-rental real estate assets are no longer to  be
  added  back to net income in arriving at FFO. The Partnership  adopted
  these  changes effective January 1, 1996, and the calculations of  FFO
  for  the  three  and six months ended June 30, 1995 has  been  revised
  accordingly.
                                     - 16 -
<PAGE>
  The  calculations  of FFO for the  three and six months ended June 30, 
  1995 have also been revised to conform with the presentation  of FFO 
  for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996 which exclude amounts  
  attributable to minority interests.
  
  While  management  believes that FFO is the most relevant  and  widely
  used  measure of the Partnership's operating performance, such  amount
  does  not  represent cash flow from operations as defined by generally
  accepted  accounting  principles,  should  not  be  considered  as  an
  alternative  to  net  income  as  an indicator  of  the  Partnership's
  operating performance, and is not indicative of cash available to fund
  all cash flow needs.
