Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

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

The unaudited 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 March 31, 1997 and the results of
operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996
and the statement of partners' capital (deficit) for the three months ended
March 31, 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 confirm to the current year's presentation.

The following significant event 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. and its affiliates 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.



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

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The General Partners have engaged real estate brokers to assist with the
marketing of the Partnership's properties.  The General Partners anticipate
that the sale of the properties will be completed in 1997.  It should be noted
that the mortgage notes secured by Watkins Center are payable in full on June
10, 1997. Since a sale of this property will not occur by the maturity date,
the Partnership has requested an extension of such maturity date until year-end
1997 in order to provide sufficient time in which to sell the property.  The
lender has verbally agreed to this extension and the Partnership is awaiting
final written approval.

The Partnership had cash and cash equivalents totaling $272,824 at March 31,
1997, compared with $301,658 at December 31, 1996. The decrease is primarily
due to the payment of cash distributions, real estate additions and mortgage
principal payments, exceeding net cash provided by operating activities. 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 $248,789 at March 31, 1997, which consists of security deposits and
funds reserved for property tax payments.

Rent receivable increased to $45,471 at March 31, 1997, from $19,966 at
December 31, 1996 primarily due to the timing of rental receipts.  Deferred
rent receivable totaled $257,459 at March 31, 1997, compared to $215,389 at
December 31, 1996.  The increase largely reflects leases executed in 1996 and
1997. Other assets decreased to $51,252 at March 31, 1997, from $80,783 at
December 31, 1996 mainly due to the amortization of prepaid insurance.

Accounts payable and accrued expenses increased to $275,564 at March 31, 1997
from $128,984 at December 31, 1996 due primarily to the timing of the payment
of real estate taxes.  Due to affiliates increased to $22,728 at March 31,
1997, from $12,335 at December 31, 1996, primarily reflecting the reimbursement
of certain expenses incurred in servicing the Partnership, as described below
under "Results of Operations." Prepaid rent increased to $88,777 at March 31,
1997, from $5,517 at December 31, 1996 mainly reflecting prepaid rents received
from tenants at Watkins Center and Swenson Business Park, Building B.  Minority
interest totaled $946,067 at March 31, 1997, compared to $837,392 at December
31, 1996.  The increase largely reflects the higher net income at Watkins
Center Joint Venture.

During the 1997 first quarter, the General Partners executed a new five-year
lease for 6,720 square feet at Dawson Business Center.  As a result, the
property was 98% leased at March 31, 1997.  Four leases totaling 26,865 square
feet are scheduled to expire during the remainder of 1997.  The General
Partners will approach these tenants regarding lease renewals at the
appropriate time.

At Watkins Center, the General Partners executed six new leases totaling 11,770
square feet during the 1997 first quarter.  Also, five tenants representing
15,919 square feet renewed their respective leases and two other tenants
renewed their leases and expanded their respective spaces to 3,520 square feet
and 3,250 square feet.  However, four tenants totaling 7,930 square feet
vacated the premises during the quarter.  As a result, the property was 96%
leased at March 31, 1997.  Ten leases totaling 52,906 square feet are scheduled
to expire during the remainder of 1997.

At Maitland Center Office Building, leases with two tenants, totaling 6,182
square feet, expired on March 31, 1997.  One of the tenants, representing 3,984
square feet, executed a three- year lease renewal.  The other tenant vacated
the building. However, the General Partners executed a new lease for this
space.  Additionally, a tenant whose lease representing 1,761 square feet was
scheduled to expire in July 1997 terminated its lease and vacated the premises.
The General Partners also executed a lease with a new tenant for this space. At
March 31, 1997 the property remained 100% leased.  A lease representing 1,442
square feet expired on April 30, 1997.  The General Partners are currently
negotiating the terms of a lease renewal. Five leases totaling 11,661 square
feet are scheduled to expire during the remainder of 1997 and the General
Partners have commenced negotiating renewals and/or extensions with all of
these tenants.

Over the next few months, the General Partners expect to complete several major
capital improvement projects at each of the properties to better position them
for sale.  In anticipation of these additional expenses, the Partnership's 1997
first quarter distribution, which will be paid to limited partners on or about
May 19, 1997, was reduced to $3.00 per Unit.  Furthermore, the General Partners
anticipate that it will be necessary to suspend distributions in the future. As
properties are sold, the proceeds will be distributed to the limited partners.
To date limited partners have received cash distributions totaling $338.57 per
original $500 Unit, including $111.17 per Unit in return of capital payments.

Results of Operations

The Partnership's operations resulted in net income of $429,961 for the three
months ended March 31, 1997, compared with $12,731 for the three months ended
March 31, 1996.  The increase is mainly due to higher rental income and no
depreciation and amortization expense in 1997.

Rental income totaled $1,269,365 for the three months ended March 31, 1997,
compared with $1,119,264 a year earlier.  The increase is primarily
attributable to higher occupancy at Dawson Business Center and increased rental
rates at Watkins Center.  Interest income totaled $3,301 for the three months
ended March 31, 1997, compared with $17,556 for the comparable period in 1996.
The decrease is primarily due to lower cash balances in 1997.

Property operating expenses totaled $499,016 for the three months ended March
31, 1997, largely unchanged from $477,551 a year earlier.  The Partnership
recorded no depreciation or amortization expense for the three months ended
March 31, 1997 due to the Partnership's properties being held for sale.

General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 1997
were $104,183 compared to $91,046 for the same period in 1996.  During the 1997
period, certain expenses incurred by CP1 Real Estate Services Inc., its
affilaites, and an unaffiliated third party service provider in servicing the
Partnership, which were voluntarily absorbed by affiliates of CP1 Real Estate
Services Inc. in prior periods, were reimbursed to CP1 Real Estate Services
Inc. and its affiliates.  Bad debt expense totaled $13,522 for the three months
ended March 31, 1997 compared with $0 for the corresponding period in 1996. The
1997 amount represents reserves for rents receivable associated with tenants at
Watkins Center and Maitland Center Office Building.  Minority interest in
consolidated venture totaled $108,675 for the three months ended March 31,
1997, compared to $1,130 a year earlier, mainly representing higher net income
at Watkins Center in 1997.

As of March 31, 1997, lease levels at each of the Properties were as follows:
Watkins Center - 96%; Dawson Business Center - 98%; Maitland Center Office
Building A - 100%; Swenson Business Park, Building B - 100%.
