     Note 5.  Property in Reno, Nevada:
              ------------------------
     The Partnership and Corporate Property Associates 3 ("CPA(R):3"), an
     affiliate, own a property in Reno, Nevada as tenants-in-common with 39% and
     61% interests, respectively.  The property has been vacant since December
     1994 when a lease with New Valley Corporation was terminated pursuant to an
     order of the bankruptcy court.  On August 28, 1996, the Partnership and
     CPA(R):3 entered into a net lease agreement for the Reno property with
     Excel Teleservices, Inc. ("Excel").  The lease obligations of Excel have
     been guaranteed by its parent company, Excel Communications, Inc.

     Under the lease, the Partnership and CPA(R):3 are obligated to fund an
     allowance for tenant improvements to the facility of up to $1,341,600.  In
     addition, the lease requires the Partnership and CPA(R):3 to repair and/or
     replace the HVAC system and roof; such repair costs are estimated to amount
     to $228,000.  The Partnership's share of allowance and repair costs amounts
     to approximately $612,000.

     The initial lease term of ten years will commence at the earlier of
     December 26, 1996 or the date on which Excel commences operations at the
     facility.  Rent will be $532,800 during the first five years and increase
     to $580,800 for the remainder of the initial term (of which the
     Partnership's share will be $207,800 and $226,600, respectively).  The
     lease also provides Excel with two five-year renewal options with the rent
     during such renewal terms based on the then prevailing market rate.  Excel
     has the right to terminate the lease at the end of the sixth lease year.

                Item 2. - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION OF OPERATIONS
                -----------------------------------------------


     Results of Operations:
     ---------------------

     Excluding the effect of a $50,000 nonrecurring item included in other
     income in 1995, income for the three and nine-month periods ended September
     30, 1996 increased by 2% as compared with income for the same periods ended
     September 30, 1995.  Decreases in lease revenues were offset by decreases
     in interest expense.  Lease revenues decreased as the result of the
     November 1995 restructuring of the Partnership's lease with Gibson
     Greetings, Inc. ("Gibson").  As more fully described in the Partnership's
     Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1995, in
     agreeing to the restructuring, the Partnership received a substantial lump
     sum payment in consideration for severing one of the properties from the
     lease and entering into a lease with Cleo, Inc. ("Cleo") for such severed
     property and modifying the existing lease with Gibson.  Although overall
     rentals from the Gibson and Cleo properties were reduced after executing
     the new agreements, cash from the lump sum payment was used to retire all
     outstanding mortgage debt on the Gibson and Cleo properties.  Retiring the
     mortgage debt has allowed cash flow from the Gibson and Cleo properties
     (rent received less any debt service on the properties) to remain stable.
     The decrease in interest expense is due to the payoff of the debt on the
     Gibson and Cleo properties at the time of the restructuring, the payoff of
     three other mortgage loans in the first quarter of 1996 and the benefit
     from refinancing an existing mortgage loan on the Partnership's property
     leased to Unisource Worldwide, Inc. ("Unisource"), at a lower rate of
     interest, in June 1996.  Solely as a result of the Unisource financing,
     annual cash flow will increase by $305,000.


     Financial Condition:
     -------------------

     Although there has been no material change in the Partnership's financial
     condition since December 31, 1995, the Partnership's cash position has
     increased by $578,000 to $1,106,000.  The Partnership's cash flow from
     operations of $2,072,000 was sufficient to pay scheduled mortgage principal
     installments of $725,000 and quarterly distributions of $1,128,000.  In
     addition, the Partnership paid a special distribution to limited partners
     of $823,500 ($15 per Limited Partnership Unit).  The Partnership refinanced
     an existing loan on the Unisource property and used a portion of the excess
     proceeds to pay off the balance of $1,250,000 due to the Corporate General
     Partner which had been used, in part, to fund the special distribution to
     partners.  Because of the lower interest rate obtained on refinancing of
     the Unisource property mortgage loan, annual debt service has decreased in
     spite of an increase in the outstanding principal balance on the Unisource
     property mortgage loan to $7,000,000 from $5,539,000.

     With the increase in the Partnership's cash position, the Partnership
     should have sufficient cash reserves to fully fund its $612,000 share of
     capital costs required under the Excel Teleservices, Inc. ("Excel") lease.
     The Partnership's annual cash flow will increase by $208,000 when Excel
     commences paying rent.  The Partnership received $30,000 during the third
     quarter for its share of rents from Sports & Recreation, Inc. ("Sports &
     Recreation") for the Moorestown, New Jersey property and has received all
     subsequent rents.  Sports & Recreation had been in the process of
     renovating the Moorestown property, but has decided not to occupy the
     property.  The Partnership and Sports & Recreation previously engaged in
     discussions regarding a settlement of the lease obligation, and the
     Partnership would consider new settlement proposals.  The Partnership's
     lease with Maybelline Products Co., Inc. for 50% of the leaseable space at
     the warehouse facility in Maumelle, Arkansas expires on December 31, 1996.
     An extension is being negotiated which will allow Maybelline to terminate
     the lease at any time upon 90 days notice.  Annual rent from the Maybelline
     lease is $156,000.

     The General Partners are currently investigating ways to provide liquidity
     for limited partners on a tax-effective basis.
