Notes to the Consolidated financial statements

The unaudited consolidated interim financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the Partnership's annual 1996 audited
financial statements within Form 10-K.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements include all
normal and reoccurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of
management, necessary to present a fair statement of financial
position as of September 30, 1997 and the results of operations
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996
and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996
and the statement of partners' capital (deficit) for the
nine months ended September 30, 1997.  Results of operations for
the period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be
expected for the full year.

Reclassification.  Certain prior year amounts have been
reclassified in order to conform to the current year's
presentation.

The following significant events have occurred subsequent to
fiscal year 1996, and no material contingencies exist which would
require disclosure in this interim report per Regulation S-X,
Rule 10-01, Paragraph (a)(5).

Effective as of January 1, 1997, the Partnership began
reimbursing certain expenses incurred by CP1 Real Estate Services
Inc., its affiliates and an unaffiliated third party service
provider in servicing the Partnership to the extent permitted by
the partnership agreement.  In prior years, an affiliate of CP1
Real Estate Services Inc. had voluntarily absorbed these
expenses.

The Partnership has engaged real estate brokerage firms to assist
with its efforts in marketing for sale the Partnership's four
properties.  As a result, the properties were reclassified on the
Partnership's balance sheet at December 31, 1996, as "Real estate
held for sale."

Subsequent Event
On November 10, 1997, the Partnership closed on the sale of
Swenson Business Park - Building B to an unaffiliated third party
for total proceeds, before closing adjustments, of $5,650,000.
The Partnership intends to distribute the net proceeds from the
sale in the near future.


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

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Partnership has engaged real estate brokerage firms to assist
with its efforts in marketing for sale the Partnership's four
properties.  As a result, the properties were reclassified on the
Partnership's balance sheet at December 31, 1996, as "Real estate
held for sale."

On November 10, 1997, the Partnership closed on the sale of
Swenson Business Park - Building B to an unaffiliated third party
for total proceeds, before closing adjustments, of $5,650,000.
As a result of the sale, the General Partners intend to make a
special cash distribution in the near future.

The Partnership accepted one of the offers made for Maitland
Center Office Building A, and the prospective purchaser posted
earnest money of $25,000.  However, the prospective purchaser
subsequently withdrew it's offer and the earnest money was paid
to the Partnership.  These funds were added to the Partnership's
cash reserves.  The General Partners are now evaluating other
offers received for the property and hope to commence
negotiations with the successful bidder in the near future.

The Partnership has received several purchase offers for Watkins
Center and Dawson Business Center which are being evaluated by
the General Partners.  It is presently anticipated that the
properties will be sold in the first half of 1998.  There can be
no assurance that the properties will be sold within this time
frame, or that any sale, if completed, will result in a
particular price.  It should be noted that the mortgage notes
secured by Watkins Center were payable in full on June 10, 1997.
However, in light of the Partnership's efforts to sell the
property, the lender extended the maturity date to December 31,1997
in order to provide sufficient time in which to sell the
property.  The General Partners will approach the lender
regarding a further extension of the maturity date, if necessary.

The Partnership had cash and cash equivalents totaling $433,031
at September 30, 1997, compared with $301,658 at
December 31, 1996.  The increase is primarily due to net cash
provided by operating activities exceeding the payment of cash
distributions, real estate additions and mortgage principal
payments.  The cash and cash equivalents balance includes funds
held as a working capital reserve to fund tenant improvements and
leasing commissions, in addition to cash generated from
operations.  The Partnership also had a restricted cash balance
of $273,732 at September 30, 1997, which consisted of security
deposits and funds reserved for property tax payments.

Rent receivable increased to $49,109 at September 30, 1997, from
$19,966 at December 31, 1996 primarily due to the timing of
rental receipts.  Deferred rent receivable totaled $291,545 at
September 30, 1997, compared to $215,389 at December 31, 1996.
The increase largely reflects leases executed in 1996 and 1997.
Prepaid leasing costs, net of accumulated amortization, increased
to $468,304 at September 30, 1997, from $379,758 at December 31,1996,
primarily due to commissions paid for new leases at the
Partnership's properties.  Other assets increased to $101,478 at
September 30, 1997, from $80,783 at December 31, 1996, mainly due
to the prepayment of insurance.

Accounts payable and accrued expenses increased to $208,765 at
September 30, 1997, from $128,984 at December 31, 1996, due to
the timing of payments for real estate taxes.  Prepaid rent
increased to $72,906 at September 30, 1997, from $5,517 at
December 31, 1996, mainly reflecting prepaid rents received at
Swenson Business Park, Building B.  Minority interest totaled
$1,084,427 at September 30, 1997, compared to $837,392 at
December 31, 1996.  The increase largely reflects the higher net
income at Watkins Center Joint Venture and Swenson Business Park
- - Building B Joint Venture.

As of September 30, 1997, lease levels at each of the Properties
were as follows: Maitland Center Office Building A - 100%;
Watkins Center - 98%; Dawson Business Center - 98%; Swenson
Business Park - Building B - 100%.



Results of Operations

The Partnership's operations resulted in net income of $444,393
and $1,491,615 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997,
respectively, compared with net income of $47,745 and
$58,157 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1996,
respectively.  The increases are primarily attributable to higher
rental income in 1997, and the elimination of depreciation
expense in 1997 as a result of reclassifying the properties as
"Real estate held for sale" commencing December 31, 1996.

Rental income totaled $1,223,345 and $3,754,691 for the three and
nine months ended September 30, 1997, respectively, compared with
$1,109,834 and $3,341,587 for the comparable periods in 1996.
The increases are primarily attributable to higher average
occupancy at Dawson Business Center and Maitland Office Center
Building A, and increased rental rates at Watkins Center.
Interest income totaled $3,158 and $9,315 for the three and nine
months ended September 30, 1997, respectively, compared with
$7,365 and $35,390 for the comparable periods a year earlier.
The decreases are primarily due to lower cash balances in 1997.

Property operating expenses totaled $468,833 and $1,423,262 for
the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997, respectively,
compared with $422,580 and $1,375,875 for the comparable periods a year earlier.
The increase is primarily due to higher repairs and maintenance costs
at Swenson Business Park - Building B and Watkins Center.

Minority interest in consolidated venture totaled $(117,594) and
$(247,035) for the three and nine months ended September 30,1997,
compared with $(1,622) and $(1,483) for the comparable
periods in 1996.  The increases mainly reflect net income at
Watkins Center Joint Venture in 1997.
