PART I.  Financial Information



Item 1.  Financial Statements

         The consolidated financial statements included herein
have been prepared by the registrant, without audit, pursuant to
the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally
included in financial statements prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles have been consolidated or
omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations; however, the
registrant believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the
information presented not misleading.  It is suggested that these
consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the
financial statements and the notes thereto included in the
registrant's annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 1996.

         The consolidated financial statements for the interim
periods included herein, which are unaudited, include, in the
opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal
recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial
position and results of operations of the registrant for the
periods presented.  The results of operations for interim periods
should not be considered indicative of results to be expected for
the full year.

     (b)  At September 30, 1997, the Recreation Notes consisted of
$25 million due from Hilcoast (the "Hilcoast Recreation Note"),
collateralized by a first mortgage on certain real estate within
the Century Village at Pembroke Pines, Florida active adult
condominium project (the "Pembroke Century Village"), including the
recreation facilities at that project (the "Pembroke Recreation
Facilities") and $41.6 million, collateralized by first mortgages
on the recreation facilities at the three previously completed
Century Village communities in southeast Florida.

     The Hilcoast Recreation Note bears interest at prime (8.5% at
September 30, 1997) plus 3%, but in any event not less than 9% nor
more than 11%, and currently requires monthly interest payments
only.  Upon the earlier to occur of delivery of the last
condominium apartment at the Pembroke Century Village or July 31,
1998, the Hilcoast Recreation Note is scheduled to be converted to
an 11%, fixed rate, 25 year, $25 million, self-amortizing loan
providing for equal monthly payments of principal and interest. 
This note may not be prepaid by Hilcoast without a prepayment
penalty and will be collateralized by a first mortgage on the
Pembroke Recreation Facilities.

     The remaining Recreation Notes principally provide for self-amortizing 
equal monthly principal and interest payments due through 2012, with interest
rates averaging 13%, and contain certain prepayment prohibitions.

     (c)  Hilcoast

     Lines of Credit to Hilcoast consist of revolving construction
loan commitments which as of September 30, 1997, aggregated $9.6
million.  $7.5 million of the Lines of Credit matures on July 31,
1998 and bears interest, payable monthly, at prime plus 3%, but in
any event not less than 9% nor more than 11%.  The remaining $2.1
million matures on November 30, 1997 and bears interest, payable
monthly, at prime plus 3%, but in any event not less than 11%.  The
Lines of Credit also provide for unused commitment fees generally
equal to 1.8% per annum and require specific release prices,
principally based on sales of condominium apartments at the
Pembroke Century Village, to be applied as permanent reductions of
amounts available under the Lines of Credit.

     Other real estate mortgage notes due from Hilcoast amounted to
$6.1 million as of September 30, 1997 and included $5 million
payable July 31, 1998, with interest, payable quarterly, at 10%,
collateralized by the Pembroke Recreation Facilities.  The
remaining mortgage note due from Hilcoast matures in December 1997
and bears interest, payable monthly, at prime plus 3% (but in any
event not less than 9% nor more than 11%).

excluding the Hilcoast Recreation Note (Note 1(b)), require
quarterly self-amortizing principal and interest payments and
mature on March 15, 2007.


(5)  Commitments and Contingencies

    (a)  TGI Development, Inc. ("TGI")

     On October 9, 1989, TGI filed a complaint in the Circuit Court
of Palm Beach County against the Company, H. Irwin Levy and certain
unrelated parties alleging misrepresentations by the defendants in
connection with TGI's purchase and development of land from a
previous borrower of the Company.  The complaint, as subsequently
amended, consisted of counts of common law fraud and breach of
contract and sought compensatory damages of approximately $2
million in addition to punitive damages.  On October 3, 1990, the
Company filed a counterclaim against TGI in connection with an
$800,000 promissory note from TGI to the Company.  On February 9,
1994, the Circuit Court granted a Final Judgment in favor of the
Company, which dismissed TGI's claim of common law fraud against
the Company and struck its punitive damage claim.  In accordance
with an agreement between the parties, on August 23, 1994, the
Court dismissed the breach of contract claim with prejudice and
entered a judgment in the amount of $1.1 million in favor of the
Company on the aforementioned counterclaim.  The Company agreed not
to execute that judgment until completion of TGI's appeal of the
Final Judgment on its claim for compensatory damages.  On January
3, 1996, the Fourth District Court of Appeals reversed the Final
Judgment.  The Company unsuccessfully appealed this reversal to the
Florida Supreme Court and the case has been remanded for trial to
the Circuit Court.


<PAGE> 10

    Although the Company believes it has substantial defenses, 
the ultimate outcome of this litigation cannot presently be determined.  
Accordingly, no provision for any liability that may result upon final 
adjudication has been made in the accompanying financial statements.  
In management's opinion, the final outcome of this litigation will not 
have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition.


     (b)  Other

     The Company is subject to various claims and complaints
relative to its business activities.  In the opinion of management,
the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material
adverse effect on the Company's financial position.



(6)  Consulting and Advisory Agreement with Hilcoast

    Hilcoast provides certain investment advisory, consulting and
administrative services to the Company, excluding matters related
to Hilcoast's loans from the Company, under a consulting and
advisory agreement which expires in December 31, 1997, as extended. 
If the proposed acquisition of certain commercial properties (Note
7) is consummated, the advisory agreement will be extended to June
30, 1999.  The agreement provides for the payment of $10,000 per
month to Hilcoast, plus reimbursement for reasonable out of pocket
expenses and may be terminated by Hilcoast upon 180 days notice and
by the Company upon 30 days notice.


(7)  Proposed Acquisition

    On September 19, 1997, the Company entered into an agreement
for the acquisition of a commercial real estate management company
and up to nine shopping centers and an office building , located in
the middle Atlantic region, containing an aggregate of
approximately 644,000 square feet with an assigned gross asset
value of approximately $57 million.  The agreement, which resulted
from the previously reported negotiations, contemplates issuance to
the sellers of approximately 1.8 million units, subject to
adjustment, by a newly formed operating partnership (in which a
wholly-owned subsidiary (the "Subsidiary") of the Company will be
the general partner and own at least 81%).  The operating
partnership is expected to assume approximately $33 million of
mortgage indebtedness and pay approximately $2.4 million in cash
(excluding transaction costs).  Louis Meshon, Sr., who has over 25
years of experience in management of commercial properties and is
the chief executive officer of the management company, is expected
to become the chief operating officer of the Subsidiary and chief
executive officer of the Company.  The agreement has been approved
by the Company's Board of Directors and is subject to shareholder
approval and various other conditions.  The closing is scheduled to
take place in December 1997.  However, there is no assurance that
the proposed acquisition will be consummated.

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


                      Results of Operations

Net Income

    For the third quarter ended September 30, 1997, net income was
$2,195,000 or $.28 per share compared to $2,189,000 or $.27 per
share for the corresponding quarter in 1996.

    Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 was
$6,459,000 or $.81 per share compared to $6,691,000 or $.84 per
share for the same period of 1996.

    Interest income decreased by $304,000 and $936,000 for the
three and nine months, respectively, partially attributable to an
approximately $5 million and $6 million reduction in the average
balance of the Hilcoast mortgage notes receivable.  The average
interest rate on the mortgage notes repaid approximated 12.25% and
the  repayments were generally reinvested in lower yielding short-term 
investments (averaging approximately 5.60%).  Interest income
also decreased due to the elimination of certain income producing
assets utilized in the acquisition of the Century Plaza shopping
center on September 30, 1996, which decrease was more than offset
by higher net rental income (rent income less operating costs) from
Century Plaza as discussed below.

    Rent income increased $345,000 and $1,036,000 for the three
and nine month periods, respectively, mainly due to the acquisition
of Century Plaza.


<PAGE> 12

    Interest expense decreased during 1997 due to scheduled 
principal repayments of the CMO's, the Company's only outstanding
debt.

    Operating, general and administrative expenses increased
$90,000 and $118,000 for the three and nine months, respectively,
principally due to additional operating expenses of $108,000 and
$314,000 associated with Century Plaza.  These increases were
offset by reductions in general and administrative expenses,
principally personnel costs and professional fees.

    Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 
reflects additional depreciation expense of $117,000 from Century
Plaza.

    Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 1996
includes a $243,000 net non-recurring credit, primarily consisting
of a recovery of previously recorded losses.


Funds From Operations

    Funds From Operations ("FFO") consists of net income (computed
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles) before
recovery of previously recorded losses and depreciation of real
property (including the Company's share of depreciation in
connection with its equity earnings in unconsolidated
partnerships).  The Company believes that FFO is an appropriate
measure of operating performance because real estate depreciation 
charges are not meaningful in evaluating the operating results of
the Company's properties and certain non-recurring items, such as
the recovery of previously recorded losses, are not relevant to
ongoing operations.  However, FFO does not represent cash generated
from operating activities in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles and should not be considered as an
alternative to either net income as a measure of the Company's
operating performance or to cash flows from operating activities as
an indicator of liquidity or cash available to fund all cash flow
needs.  In addition, since other REITs may not calculate FFO in the
same manner, FFO presented herein may not be comparable to that
reported by other REITs.

    For the quarter ended September 30, 1997, FFO amounted to
$2,272,000 compared to $2,273,000 for the same quarter of 1996.

    For the nine months ended September 30, 1997, FFO was
$6,828,000 compared to $6,700,000 for the same period of 1996.


<PAGE> 13

                 Liquidity and Capital Resources


    Net cash provided by operating activities amounted to
$6,293,000 and $6,500,000 for the nine months ended September 30,
1997 and 1996, respectively.  These amounts consisted of net income
(excluding depreciation and other non-cash items), amounting to
$6,828,000 and $6,700,000, respectively, less increases in net
operating assets.

    Net cash provided by investing activities aggregated
$2,629,000 and $5,866,000 during the nine months ended September
30, 1997 and 1996, respectively, and included $5,067,000 and
$7,119,000, respectively, of net collections on real estate
mortgage notes, partially offset by a $1,507,000 reduction in
short-term investments in 1997 and $1,151,000 cash used to purchase
Century Plaza in 1996.

    Net cash used in financing activities amounted to  $8,540,000
and $8,117,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and
1996, respectively, consisting of dividends of $6,896,000 and
$6,616,000, respectively, and repayments on the Company's CMO's of
$1,633,000 and $1,491,000, respectively.

    At September 30, 1997, total assets were $116.8 million,
including $79.7 million in real estate mortgage notes. 
Approximately $66.6 million of the real estate mortgage notes are
collateralized by recreation facilities under long-term leases with
unit owners at approximately 29,400 apartments at Century Village
adult condominium communities at Pembroke Pines, West Palm Beach,
Deerfield Beach and Boca Raton, Florida, and generally provide for
self-amortizing, equal monthly installment payments through 2028
(the "Recreation Notes" - see Note 1(b) to Consolidated Financial
Statements).  The operations of these facilities historically have
been profitable and, in the Company's opinion, are not likely to be
affected by adverse economic conditions.

    The remaining $13.1 million of real estate mortgage notes 
include $12.8 million due from Hilcoast, principally collateralized
by first mortgages on certain real estate at the Century Village at
Pembroke Pines adult condominium community in Broward County,
Florida (the "Pembroke Century Village" - see Note 1(c) to
Consolidated Financial Statements).  Collections on these mortgage
notes may be affected by the future success of the Pembroke Century
Village which may, in turn, be affected by conditions in the
housing market.   At September 30, 1997, 7,378 units had been sold
and delivered at the planned 7,780 unit Pembroke Century Village
and the backlog of units under contract for future delivery was 157
units with a sales value of $13.7 million.

<PAGE> 14    

    Operating funds are currently generated from interest income,
principally on mortgage notes, and rentals from income producing
properties. Dividend payments to stockholders, in accordance with
the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, limit the Company from
utilizing significant amounts of income-generated funds for
investment purposes.

    Since its qualification as a REIT and until 1990, monies
received from the repayment of existing mortgage notes and
borrowings were generally reinvested in new and existing mortgage
notes and other real estate related investments.  In more recent
years, the Company's only new loan commitments have been in
connection with its existing borrowers.  The Company has generally
reinvested its other available funds in high quality short-term
corporate and government securities.  The Company expects to pursue
this strategy while it continues to evaluate alternative real
estate investments.  See Note 7 to Consolidated Financial
Statements regarding a proposed acquisition of ten commercial
properties.  During the quarter ended September 30, 1997, there
were no new loan commitments and at September 30, 1997, commitments
on outstanding real estate loans and capital expenditures were
insignificant.

    During the nine months ended September 30, 1997, the Company
declared cash dividends of $.87 per share, aggregating $6.9 million
which approximated the Company's FFO during that period.

    At September 30, 1997, the outstanding balance of the CMO's 
amounted to $33.4 million (net of unamortized discount of $710,000
based on an effective interest rate of 8.84%).  The CMO's are
collateralized by $41.6 million of the Recreation Notes and require
self-amortizing principal and interest payments through March 2007. 
During the term of the CMO's, the Company's scheduled annual debt
service requirement approximates $5.2 million compared to annual
principal and interest payments scheduled to be received under the
related Recreation Notes of $6.5 million.


                            Inflation

    As of September 30, 1997, the Company had no variable interest
rate borrowings; however, the Company's interest-sensitive mortgage
notes receivable amounted to $33 million, with interest at prime +
3%, but in any event not less than 9% nor more than 11%.  As of
September 30, 1997, the interest rate on those notes had reached
the 11% ceiling; accordingly, in the event of inflation, even if
such inflation is accompanied by rising interest rates, the effect
on the Company's results of operations is not expected to be
material.
