     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 and the instructions for Form 10-Q and Rule 10-
01 of Regulation S-X. 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
Partnership" or the "General Partner") contributed all of its
properties and related assets and liabilities along with the net
proceeds from the issuance of an additional 14,000,833 units through a
common stock 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. The
General Partner is the sole general partner of the Partnership and
owns 88.2% of the Partnership at June 30, 1998. The remaining limited
partnership interest ("Limited Partner Units") (together with the
units of general partner interests, the ("Common Units")) are mainly
owned by the previous partners of Duke Associates. The Limited Partner
Units are exchangeable for units of the General Partner's common stock
on a one-for-one basis subject generally to a one-year holding period.
The General Partner periodically acquires a portion of the minority
interest in the Partnership through the issuance of units of common
stock for a like number of Common Units. The acquisition of the
minority interest is 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 service operations are conducted through Duke Realty Services
Limited Partnership and Duke Construction Limited Partnership, 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.

2. LINES OF CREDIT

The Partnership has a $250 million unsecured revolving credit
facility which is available to fund the development and acquisition
of additional rental properties and to provide working capital. The
revolving line of credit matures in April 2001 and bears interest at
the 30-day London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") plus .80%. The
Partnership also has a demand $7 million secured revolving credit
facility which is available to provide working capital. This facility
bears interest at the 30-day LIBOR rate plus .65%.
                                    -6-

3. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Partnership provides property 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 $1.1 million and $1.7 million
for such services for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997,
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.  NET INCOME PER COMMON UNIT

Basic net income per common unit is computed by dividing net income
available for common units by the weighted average number of common
units outstanding for the period. Diluted net income per unit is
computed by dividing the sum of net income available for common units
and minority interest in earnings of unitholders, by the sum of the
weighted average number of common units and dilutive potential common
units outstanding for the period.

The following table reconciles the components of basic and diluted
net income per common unit for the three and six months ended June
30:

consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months  ended  June
30,  1998  and 1997, and the related condensed consolidated statement
of  partners'  equity for the six months ended June 30,  1998.  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 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, 1997, and the
related consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the
year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated
January 28, 1998, 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, 1997 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 of its in-service
portfolio 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 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 occupancy rate of its in-
service portfolio has exceeded 94% the last two years. The
Partnership expects to continue to maintain its overall occupancy 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, 1998 and 1997 (in thousands, except percentages):

Management expects occupancy of the in-service property portfolio to
remain stable because (i) only 5.3% and 11.8% of the Partnership's
occupied square footage is subject to leases expiring in the
remainder of 1998 and in 1999, respectively, and (ii) the
Partnership's renewal percentage averaged 81%, 80% and 65% in 1997,
1996 and 1995, respectively.

This stable occupancy, along with increasing 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 development and
acquisition of additional rental properties in its primary markets;
(ii) the expansion into other attractive Midwestern markets; and
(iii) the completion of the 4.2 million square feet of properties
under development at June 30, 1998 over the next four quarters.  The
4.2 million square feet of properties under development is expected
to provide future earnings from rental operations growth for the
Partnership as they are placed in service as follows (in thousands,
except percent leased and stabilized returns):

COMPARISON  OF THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 TO THREE MONTHS ENDED  JUNE
30, 1997
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rental Operations
- -----------------
The Partnership increased its in-service portfolio of rental
properties from 262 properties comprising 31.4 million square feet at
June 30, 1997 to 419 properties comprising 48.2 million square feet
at June 30, 1998 through the acquisition of 124 properties totaling
10.1 million square feet and the completion of 37 properties and 3
building expansions totaling 7.0 million square feet developed by the
Partnership.  The Partnership also disposed of 4 properties totaling
approximately 300,000 square feet.  These 157 net additional rental
properties primarily account for the $31.5 million increase in
revenues from Rental Operations from 1997 to 1998.  The increase from
1997 to 1998 in rental expenses, real estate taxes and depreciation
and amortization expense is also a result of the additional 157 in-
service rental properties.

Interest expense increased by approximately $4.6 million from $9.7
million for the three months ended June 30, 1997 to $14.3 million for
the three months ended June 30, 1998 primarily due to additional
unsecured debt issued in the third quarter of 1997 and the first two
quarters of 1998 to fund the development and acquisition of
additional rental properties.

As a result of the above-mentioned items, earnings from rental
operations increased $11.9 million from $18.4 million for the three
months ended June 30, 1997 to $30.3 million for the three months
ended June 30, 1998.

Service Operations
- ------------------
Service Operations revenues increased to $7.0 million for the three
months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to $5.1 million for the three
months ended June 30, 1997 primarily as a result of increases in
construction management fee revenue because of an increase in third-
party construction volume.

                                   -11-

<PAGE>
Service Operations operating expenses increased from $3.4 million to
$5.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to
the three months ended June 30, 1997 primarily as a result of an
increase in construction activity and the overall growth of the
Partnership.

As a result of the above-mentioned items, earnings from Service
Operations increased from $1.7 million for the three months ended
June 30, 1997 to $1.8 million for the three months ended June 30,
1998.

General and Administrative Expense
- ----------------------------------
General and administrative expense increased from $1.4 million for
the three months ended June 30, 1997 to $3.1 million for the three
months ended June 30, 1998 primarily as a result of internal
acquisition costs which are no longer permitted to be capitalized
being charged to general and administrative expense as well as an
increase in state and local income taxes resulting from the overall
growth of the Partnership.

Other Income (Expense)
- ----------------------
Interest income increased from $182,000 for the three months ended
June 30, 1997 to $412,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1998
primarily as a result of interest income which was earned on short-
term investments during the three months ended June 30, 1998.  Other
expense consists of costs incurred during the pursuit of various
build-to-suit development projects or the acquisition of real estate
assets.  During the three months ended June 30, 1997, approximately
$312,000 of costs were expensed in connection with the decision to
abandon the acquisition of a large real estate portfolio.

Net Income Available for Common Units
- -------------------------------------
Net income available for common units for the three months ended June
30, 1998 was $24.8 million compared to net income available for
common units of $16.5 million for the three months ended June 30,
1997.  This increase results primarily from the operating result
fluctuations in rental and service operations explained above.

COMPARISON OF SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rental Operations
- -----------------
The Partnership increased its in-service portfolio of rental
properties from 262 properties comprising 31.4 million square feet at
June 30, 1997 to 419 properties comprising 48.2 million square feet
at June 30, 1998 through the acquisition of 124 properties totaling
10.1 million square feet and the completion of 37 properties and 3
building expansions totaling 7.0 million square feet developed by the
Partnership. The Partnership also disposed of 4 properties totaling
approximately 300,000 square feet. These 157 net additional rental
properties primarily account for the $60.3 million increase in
revenues from Rental Operations from 1997 to 1998. The Partnership
received approximately $4.0 million of lease termination payments
which are included in rental income for the six months ended June 30,
1998.  Included in rental income for the six months ended June 30,
1997 are approximately $1.7 million of lease termination payments.
The increase from 1997 to 1998 in rental expenses, real estate taxes
and depreciation and amortization expense is also a result of the
additional 157 in-service rental properties.
                                   -12-

<PAGE>
Interest expense increased by approximately $8.6 million from $18.6
million for the six months ended June 30, 1997 to $27.2 million for
the six months ended June 30, 1998 primarily due to additional
unsecured debt issued in the third quarter of 1997 and the first two
quarters of 1998 to fund the development and acquisition of
additional rental properties.

As a result of the above-mentioned items, earnings from rental
operations increased $24.0 million from $37.2 million for the six
months ended June 30, 1997 to $61.2 million for the six months ended
June 30, 1998.

Service Operations
- ------------------
Service Operations revenues increased to $11.9 million for the six
months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to $9.1 million for the six
months ended June 30, 1997 primarily as a result of increases in
construction management fee revenue because of an increase in third-
party construction volume. Service Operations operating expenses
increased from $6.9 million to $9.2 million for the six months ended
June 30, 1998 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 1997
primarily as a result of an increase in construction activity and the
overall growth of the Partnership.

As a result of the above-mentioned items, earnings from Service
Operations increased from $2.2 million for the six months ended June
30, 1997 to $2.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998.

General and Administrative Expense
- ----------------------------------
General and administrative expense increased from $2.5 million for
the six months ended June 30, 1997 to $5.4 million for the six months
ended June 30, 1998 primarily as a result of internal acquisition
costs which are no longer permitted to be capitalized being charged
to general and administrative expense as well as an increase in state
and local income taxes resulting from the overall growth of the
Partnership.

Other Income (Expense)
- ---------------------
Interest income increased from $433,000 for the six months ended June
30, 1997 to $589,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998 primarily
as a result of interest income which was earned on short-term
investments during the six months ended June 30, 1998. Other expense
consists of costs incurred in pursuit of unsuccessful development or
acquisition opportunities.  During the six months ended June 30,
1997, approximately $312,000 of costs were written off in connection
with the decision to terminate the pursuit of the acquisition of a
large real estate portfolio

Net cash provided by operating activities totaling $100.2 million and
$72.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997,
respectively, represents the primary source of liquidity to fund
distributions to unitholders, unitholders and the other minority
interests and to fund recurring costs associated with the renovation
and re-letting of the Partnership's properties. This increase is
primarily a result of, 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 $351.9 million and
$176.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997,
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. In 1998, $315.5
million was invested in the development and acquisition of additional
rental properties and the acquisition of land held for development.
In 1997, the investment in the development and acquisition of
additional rental properties and land held for development was $153.3
million. Included in the $315.5 million of net cash used by investing
activities for the development and acquisition of rental properties
for the six months ended June 30, 1998 are acquisitions of five
portfolios consisting of twenty-one industrial buildings and fifteen
office buildings.

Net cash provided by financing activities totaling $263.2 million and
$101.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997,
respectively, represents funds from equity and debt offerings and
borrowings under the lines of credit to fund the Partnership's
investing activities. Also included in financing activities is the
distribution of funds to unitholders and minority interests. In
January 1997, the Partnership received $56.7 million of net proceeds
from the General Partner's common equity offering which was used to
pay down amounts outstanding on the unsecured line of credit and to
fund current development activity. In 1998, the Partnership received
$86.8 million of net proceeds from the General Partner's common
equity offerings which was used to pay down amounts outstanding on
the unsecured line of credit and to fund current development and
acquisition activity. During the six months ended June 30, 1998, the
Partnership received $13.8 million of net proceeds from the issuance
of common stock under the General Partner's Direct Stock Purchase and
Dividend Reinvestment Plan compared to $7.0 million of net proceeds
received under the General Partner's Direct Stock Purchase and
Dividend Reinvestment Plan during the first six months of 1997. In
the first quarter of 1998, the Partnership received $100.0 million of
net proceeds from the offering of 7.05% Puttable Reset Securities due
March 1, 2006. In the second quarter of 1998, the Partnership
received $100.0 million of proceeds from the offering of 6.75% Senior
Notes due May 30, 2008.  The Partnership also received $50.0 million
in proceeds from the issuance of 7.25% notes under the Partnership's
medium-term note program.

The Partnership has a $250 million unsecured line of credit which
matures in April 2001 and bears interest at the 30-day LIBOR rate
plus .80%. The Partnership also has a demand $7 million secured
revolving credit facility which is available to provide working
capital. This facility bears interest at the 30-day LIBOR rate plus
 .65%.

The General Partner and the Partnership currently have on file Form S-
3 Registration Statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission
("Shelf Registrations") which had remaining availability as of July
30, 1998 of approximately $1.2 billion to issue common stock,
preferred stock or unsecured debt securities. The General Partner and
the Partnership intend to issue additional equity or debt 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, 1998 consists of notes
totaling $953.6 million with a weighted average interest rate of
7.40% maturing at various dates through 2028. The Partnership has
$590.0 million of unsecured debt and $363.6 million of secured debt
outstanding at June 30, 1998.

Scheduled principal amortization of such debt totaled $3.4 million
for the six months ended June 30, 1998. Following is a summary of the
scheduled future amortization and maturities of the Partnership's
indebtedness at June 30, 1998 (in thousands):

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):

</TABLE>

The increase in FFO for the six months ended June 30, 1998 compared
to the six months ended June 30, 1997 results primarily from the
increased in-service rental property portfolio as discussed above
under "Results of Operations."

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.

RECENTLY ENACTED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In March 1998, the Emerging Issues Task Force of the Financial
Accounting Standards Board reached a consensus on Issue No. 97-11
"Accounting for Internal Costs Relating to Real Estate Property
Acquisitions" which requires the internal cost of pre-acquisition
activities incurred in connection with the acquisition of an
operating property be expensed as incurred. During the first three
months of 1998, prior to adopting Issue No. 97-11, the Partnership
capitalized approximately $275,000 of internal costs of pre-
acquisition activities which under Issue No. 97-11 would have been
expensed.

<PAGE>
YEAR 2000

The Partnership recognizes that the Year 2000 problem could effect its
operations as well as the proper functioning of the embedded systems
included in the Partnership's properties.  In any particular property, the
problem could effect the functioning of elevators, heating and air
conditioning systems, security systems and other automated building
systems. The Partnership has begun to evaluate the Year 2000 readiness of
its operations and those of its properties, through identifying and
contacting suppliers of building systems and other critical business
partners to determine if the building systems are affected and whether
these entities have an effective plan in place to address the Year 2000
issue. The Partnership is also in the process of evaluating its own systems
to determine the impact of the Year 2000. The Partnership expects to
complete this process of inventorying and evaluating its and its properties
systems by September 1, 1998, and the process is currently approximately
80% completed.  Thereafter the Partnership will develop a work plan
detailing the tasks and resources required to ready its and its properties'
operations and systems for the Year 2000. This work plan will likely
include a timetable for remediation and testing of systems, as well as
contingency plans if readiness cannot be achieved. In addition, in many
cases the Partnership will be relying on statements from outside vendors as
to the Year 2000 readiness of their systems, and will not, in most
circumstances, attempt any independent verification. Because the
Partnership is still in the preliminary stages of its work to address the
Year 2000 problem, it currently does not have complete estimates as to the
cost of achieving Year 2000 readiness and has not yet developed any
contingency plans.  Based on the preliminary information received to date,
however, the Partnership currently expects that these costs will not be
material.  The Partnership expects to pass on most of the costs to achieve
Year 2000 readiness in any particular property to the tenants, and will
otherwise expense the costs as incurred.
  
There can be no assurance that the Partnership will be able to identify
and correct all aspects of the Year 2000 problem that effect it in
sufficient time, that it will develop adequate contingency plans or that
the costs of achieving Year 2000 readiness will not be material.  The
Partnership, however, does not currently expect the Year 2000 problem
will have a material impact on the Partnership's business, operations, or
financial condition.
