NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been
prepared 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 condensed or omitted
pursuant to such rules and regulations, although management believes
that the disclosures contained herein are adequate to make the
information presented not misleading. These unaudited condensed
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and related notes appearing in the Partnership's Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 1997.
2. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed
financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal
accruals, necessary to present fairly the Partnership's financial
position at March 31, 1998, the results of its operations for the three
months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997 and its cash flows for the three
months then ended.
3. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1998 are
not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year.
4. Marketable securities at March 31, 1998 consist of 381,980 shares of
common stock of Public Storage, Inc., a publicly traded real estate
investment trust and a general partner of the Partnership. The
Partnership has designated its portfolio of marketable securities as
available for sale. Accordingly, at March 31, 1998, the Partnership has
recorded the marketable securities at fair value, based upon the
closing quoted prices of the securities at March 31, 1998. Changes in
market value of marketable securities are reflected as unrealized gains
or losses directly in Partners' Equity and accordingly have no effect
on net income.
5. The Partnership's mortgage note payable matures on October 1, 1998. The
general partners believe the Partnership can refinance the loan on
terms acceptable to the Partnership upon maturity.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------
Three months ended March 31, 1998 compared to three months ended March
31, 1997:
The Partnership's net income for the three months ended March 31, 1998
was $644,000 compared to $476,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1997,
representing an increase of $168,000 or 35%. The increase is primarily a result
of increased operating results at the Partnership's mini-warehouse facilities
combined with decreased interest expense.
Rental income for the three months ended March 31, 1998 was $2,110,000
compared to $1,917,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1997, representing
an increase of $193,000 or 10%. This increase is primarily attributable to
increased occupancy levels and rental rates at the Partnership's mini-warehouse
facilities. The weighted average occupancy levels at the mini-warehouse
facilities were 94% and 90% for the three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997,
respectively. Average monthly realized rent per occupied square foot increased
from $.81 for the three months ended March 31, 1997 to $.85 for the three months
ended March 31, 1998.
Interest and other income decreased $5,000 for the three months ended
March 31, 1998 compared to the same period in 1997. The decrease is primarily a
result of increased purchase of marketable securities of affiliate, which
resulted in lower cash balances and consequently less interest earned.
Dividend income from marketable securities of affiliate increased
$19,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1998 compared to the same period in
1997 due to an increase in the number of shares owned in 1998 compared to the
same period in 1997.
Cost of operations (including management fees paid to affiliate) for
the three months ended March 31, 1998 was $649,000 compared to $605,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 1997, representing an increase of $44,000 or 7%.
This increase is mainly attributable to increases in advertising and promotion
costs and property tax expenses. Property taxes increased due to an increase in
property tax rates at some of the Partnership's mini-warehouse facilities.
Interest expense decreased $24,000 for the three months ended March 31,
1998 compared to the same period in 1997 due to a lower outstanding loan
balance.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------
Cash flows from operating activities ($1,000,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 1998) have been sufficient to meet all current obligations of
the Partnership.
At March 31, 1997, the Partnership held 381,980 shares of common stock
with a fair value totaling $11,793,000 (cost basis of $6,091,000 at March 31,
1998) in Public Storage, Inc. The Partnership recognized $84,000 in dividends
for the three months ended March 31, 1998.
In the third quarter of 1991, quarterly distributions were discontinued
to enable the Partnership to make principal payments that commenced in 1990 and
to increase cash reserves in subsequent years through 1998, at which time the
remaining principal balance is due.
The Partnership's mortgage note payable matures on October 1, 1998. The
general partners believe the Partnership can refinance the loan on terms
acceptable to the Partnership upon maturity.
