Note 5.  Property in Moorestown, New Jersey:
          --------------------------------- 

In April 1997, the Partnership and Corporate Property Associates 3 ("CPA:3"), an
affiliate, who own a property in Moorestown, New Jersey as tenants-in-common
with 39% and 61% interests, respectively, entered into an agreement to sell the
property for $4,500,000 (of which the Partnership's share is approximately
$1,755,000), less selling costs.

The property is currently subject to a net lease with Sports & Recreation, Inc.
("Sports & Recreation").  During 1996, Sports & Recreation indicated to the
Partnership and CPA:3 that it had decided not to occupy the property and would
seek to terminate the lease.  Sports & Recreation has continued to meet its
lease obligations.

The sales agreement provides the purchaser a period of 90 days to complete the
inspection of the property.  If based on the inspections, the purchaser is not
satisfied, the purchaser may elect to terminate the sales agreement.  The sale
is also contingent upon reaching a lease termination agreement with Sports and
Recreation and obtaining permits and approvals from the Township of Moorestown
prior to October 1, 1997.  If all of the conditions are met, the sale will occur
between August 1, 1997 and December 15, 1997.  There is no assurance that the
sale will be completed.

In connection with the proposed sale, the $1,024,095 carrying value of the
property has been classified as real estate held for sale.

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



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

   The increase in net income of $215,000 for the three-month period ended March
31, 1997 as compared with the similar period ended March 31, 1996 was due to an
increase in lease revenues and decreases in property and interest expenses.  The
increase in lease revenues and the decrease in property expenses were due to the
commencement of leases in July 1996 and December 1996 for the Partnership's
properties in Moorestown, New Jersey and Reno, Nevada, respectively.  Primarily,
as a result of the Moorestown lease with Sports & Recreation, Inc. and the Reno
lease with Excel Telecommunications, Inc., lease revenues for the three-month
period increased by $113,000.  In addition, with the commencement of the Excel
and Sports & Recreation leases, property-related costs for Reno and Moorestown
such as insurance and real estate taxes are paid by the lessees rather than
absorbed by the Partnership.  Interest expense decreased due to the continuing
amortization of the mortgage loan on the Prefinish Metals Incorporated property
and refinancing, at a lower rate of interest, an existing limited recourse
mortgage loan on the Unisource Worldwide, Inc. property in June 1996.

   If the sale of the Moorestown property is completed, annual revenues and cash
flow will decrease by $121,000.  There is no assurance that the sale will be
completed.  In April 1997, Maybelline Products Co., Inc. exercised its option to
terminate its lease, effective July 1, 1997, for 50% of the leasable space at
the Partnership's warehouse and distribution facility in Maumelle, Arkansas.
The Partnership is currently attempting to remarket the property.  B&G Contract
Packaging Inc. which leases the other 50% of leasable space has a right of first
refusal for the vacated space and may elect to expand its operations at the
facility.  Annual rent from Maybelline lease was $156,000.  In addition,
Maybelline reimbursed the Partnership for property expenses related to its
occupancy.


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

   There has been no material change in the Partnership's financial condition
since December 31, 1996.  The decrease in cash of $216,000 was caused by the use
of $418,000 of cash reserves to fund completion of tenant improvements for Excel
in connection with retrofitting the Reno property.  Cash provided from operating
activities of $772,000 was sufficient to fund distributions to partners of
$353,000 and scheduled mortgage principal payments of $216,000.

   The Partnership has entered into preliminary discussions with AT&T
Corporation regarding funding an expansion of the AT&T property in Bridgeton,
Missouri.  In exchange for funding improvements, the lease term would be
extended.  There is no assurance that an agreement will be completed.  If
necessary, the Partnership has sufficient capacity to fund any expansion of the
AT&T property.  If the sale of Moorestown property is completed, the
Partnership's share of proceeds from the sale are estimated to be $1,755,000,
before selling costs.  The sale would not occur prior to August 1, 1997.

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