                        NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited financial statements of Century Properties Fund XVI
(the "Partnership" or the "Registrant") have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and
with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Item 310(b) of Regulation S-B.
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 Fox Capital Management Corporation (the "Managing General
Partner" or "FCMC"), all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Operating
results for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1997, are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year
ending December 31, 1997.  For further information, refer to the financial
statements and footnotes thereto included in the Partnership's annual report on
Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1996.

Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1996 information to conform to
the 1997 presentation.

NOTE B - TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATED PARTIES

The Partnership has no employees and is dependent on its general partners, Fox
Realty Investors ("FRI"), a California general partnership, and the Managing
General Partner, a California corporation and their affiliates for the
management and administration of all partnership activities.  The Partnership
Agreement provides for payments to affiliates for services and as reimbursement
of certain expenses incurred by affiliates on behalf of the Partnership.

Pursuant to a series of transactions which closed during the first half of 1996,
affiliates of Insignia Financial Group, Inc. ("Insignia") acquired all of the
issued and outstanding shares of stock of FCMC, NPI Equity Investments II, Inc.
("NPI Equity"), the managing general partner of FRI, and National Property
Investors, Inc. ("NPI").  NPI Equity is a wholly-owned subsidiary of NPI.  In
connection with these transactions, affiliates of Insignia appointed new
officers and directors of NPI Equity and FCMC.

On March 29, 1996, an affiliate of Insignia acquired all of the issued and
outstanding shares of stock of the general partners of the subsidiary
partnerships which hold title to The Landings Apartments and Woods of Inverness
Apartments, which general partners hold a 1% interest in profits, losses and
distributions of such subsidiary partnerships.

The following transactions with affiliates of Insignia, NPI and affiliates of
NPI were charged to expense in 1997 and 1996:

                                                        For the Six Months Ended
                                                                 June 30,

                                                            1997           1996
Property management fees (included in operating
  expenses)                                               $  70           $  65
Reimbursement for services of affiliates (included
  in general and administrative expenses)                    69              94


The Partnership insures its properties under a master policy through an agency
and insurer unaffiliated with the general partners.  An affiliate of the general
partners acquired, in the acquisition of a business, certain financial
obligations from an insurance agency which was later acquired by the agent who
placed the current year's master policy.  The current agent assumed the
financial obligations to the affiliate of the general partners, who received
payments on these obligations from the agent. The amount of the Partnership's
insurance premiums accruing to the benefit of the affiliate of the general
partners by virtue of the agent's obligations is not significant.

ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

The Partnership's investment properties consist of two apartment complexes.  The
following table sets forth the average occupancy of the properties for each of
the six month periods ended June 30, 1997 and 1996:

                                                   Average
                                                  Occupancy
Property                                     1997            1996

The Landings Apartments
  Tampa, Florida                             93%             92%

Woods of Inverness Apartments
  Houston, Texas                             96%             92%


The increase in average occupancy from June 30, 1996, to June 30, 1997, at both
The Landings Apartments and Woods of Inverness Apartments properties is due to
quality customer service and marketing, combined with the availability of
attractive, well maintained units.

The Partnership's net loss for the three and six month periods ended June 30,
1997, was $74,000 and $50,000, versus losses of $186,000 and $288,000,
respectively, for the same period in 1996.  The decrease in net loss for both
the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1997, is due to an overall
increase in total revenues and a decrease in total expenses, partially offset by
the $56,000 loss on disposal of property.  The increase in income is due to the
increase in occupancy at both The Landings Apartments and Woods of Inverness
Apartments. Operating expenses are down primarily due to a decrease in utility
costs.  General and administrative expenses decreased due to the decreased cost
reimbursements as a result of the relocation of the partnership administration
offices in 1996.  Maintenance expenses declined due to numerous repairs to both
the interior and exterior of the buildings, consisting of plumbing and electric
systems, as well as landscaping repairs, by the current management company in
1996, which did not re-occur in 1997.  The refinancings of the mortgage debt
secured by both of the Partnership's investment properties in February 1995 led
to a higher principal balance, which resulted in an increase in interest expense
for the six months ended June 30, 1997.  The previous loans, aggregating
$7,000,000, had maturity dates of June 1997 and were replaced by mortgage debt
aggregating $7,550,000 and maturing January 2006.  Property taxes decreased due
to a decrease in billing, as a result of re-evaluations of the property.

The loss on disposal of property of $56,000 was the result of a re-roofing
project at the Woods of Inverness Apartments in June 1997.  This loss was the
result of the write-off of the old roof that was not fully depreciated at the
time of the write-off.

Included in maintenance expense for the six months ended June 30, 1997, is
$20,000 of major repairs and maintenance comprised of exterior painting and
building improvements. Included in maintenance expense for the six months ended
June 30, 1996, is $54,000 of major repairs and maintenance comprised of interior
and exterior building improvements, office equipment, major landscaping and
swimming pool repairs.

As part of the ongoing business plan of the Partnership, the Managing General
Partner monitors the rental market environment of its investment properties to
assess the feasibility of increasing rents, maintaining or increasing occupancy
levels and protecting the Partnership from increases in expenses.  As part of
this plan, the Managing General Partner attempts to protect the Partnership from
the burden of inflation-related increases in expenses by increasing rents and
maintaining a high overall occupancy level.  However, due to changing market
conditions, which can result in the use of rental concessions and rental
reductions to offset softening conditions, there is no guarantee that the
Managing General Partner will be able to sustain such a plan.

At June 30, 1997, the Partnership had unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of
$353,000, versus $766,000 at June 30, 1996.  Net cash provided by operating
activities increased primarily due to a decrease in net loss, as previously
explained, offset partially by a decrease in accounts payable and accrued
expenses. The Partnership experienced an increase in cash used in investing
activities due primarily to building improvements at The Landings Apartments and
the addition of the new roof at the Woods of Inverness Apartments.  Cash used in
financing activities remained consistent for the six months ended June 30, 1997
and 1996.

An affiliate of the Managing General Partner has made available to the
Partnership a credit line of up to $150,000 per property owned by the
Partnership.  The Partnership has no outstanding amounts due under this line of
credit.  Based on present plans, the Managing General Partner does not
anticipate the need to borrow in the near future.  Other than cash and cash
equivalents, the line of credit is the Partnership's only unused source of
liquidity.

The sufficiency of existing liquid assets to meet future liquidity and capital
expenditure requirements is directly related to the level of capital
expenditures required at the properties to adequately maintain the physical
assets and other operating needs of the Partnership. Such assets are currently
thought to be sufficient for any near-term needs of the Partnership.  The
mortgage indebtedness of $7,457,000 is based on a fixed interest rate, amortized
over a thirty-year period, with a balloon payment due January 1, 2006.  Future
cash distributions will depend on the levels of cash generated from operations,
property sales, and the availability of cash reserves.  No cash distributions
were paid in 1996 or during the first six months of 1997.
