Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

The unaudited interim financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the Partnership's annual 1997 audited financial
statements within Form 10-K.

The unaudited financial statements include all normal and
recurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of management,
necessary to present a fair statement of financial position as of
March 31, 1998 and the results of operations and cash flows for
the three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997 and the statement
of partners' capital (deficit) for the three months ended March
31, 1998.  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.

No significant events have occurred subsequent to year end 1997,
and no material contingencies exist which would require
disclosure in this interim report per Regulation S-X, Rule 10-01,
Paragraph (a)(5).


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

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Partnership is actively marketing its two remaining
properties, Watkins Center and Dawson Business Center (the
"Properties"), for sale.  To facilitate our ability to sell the
Properties, the Partnership entered into agreements with its
joint venture partner in both properties on April 8, 1998,
whereby the joint venture partner waived its right of first
refusal to buy each Property.  The joint venture partner was paid
$25,000 for each waiver.  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 June
10, 1998 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.

On February 27, 1998, the Partnership paid a special cash
distribution to Limited Partners totaling $183.33 per Unit
representing the net proceeds received from the sales of Swenson
Business Park - Building B (the "Swenson Property") and Maitland
Center Office Building A (the "Maitland Property") which were
sold in late 1997.  Quarterly cash distributions from operations
were suspended commencing in the second quarter of 1997 in
consideration of the Partnership's marketing efforts and the need
to fund several major capital improvements at the properties to
better position them for sale.

The Partnership's cash and cash equivalents balance totaled
$1,668,511 at March 31, 1998, compared with $15,182,204 at
December 31, 1997.  The decrease is primarily attributable to the
payment of a special cash distribution on February 27, 1998 of
the net proceeds received from the sale of the Swenson and
Maitland Properties.  The Partnership also maintained a
restricted cash balance of $230,948 at March 31, 1998,
representing security deposits and funds reserved for property
tax payments.

Rent receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, totaled,
$47,829 at March 31, 1998 compared with $107,967 at December 31,
1997.  The decrease is due to the timing of rental receipts at
the Properties.

As of March 31, 1998, lease levels at both of the Properties were
as follows: Watkins Center - 95%; Dawson Business Center - 100%.

Results of Operations

The Partnership's operations resulted in net income of $138,406
for the three months ended
March 31, 1998, compared with $429,961 for the three months ended
March 31, 1997.  The decrease is mainly due to lower rental
income in the 1998 period, as a result of the sale of the
Maitland and Swenson Properties.

Rental income totaled $660,199 for the three months ended March
31, 1998, compared with $1,269,365 in the 1997 period.  The
decrease is primarily attributable to the sales of the Maitland
and Swenson Properties in 1997.  Interest income totaled $139,057
for the three months ended March 31, 1998, compared with $3,301
for the comparable period in 1997.  The increase is primarily due
to the Partnership's higher average cash balance in 1998 as a
result of the temporary investment of the proceeds from the sale
of the Maitland and Swenson Properties.

Property operating expenses totaled $286,829 for the three months
ended March 31, 1998, compared with  $499,016 in the 1997 period.
The decrease is primarily attributable to the sale of the
Maitland and Swenson Properties, as well as lower repairs and
maintenance expenses at the remaining Properties.

General and administrative expenses for the three months ended
March 31, 1998 were $146,559 compared to $104,183 for the same
period in 1997.  The increase is mainly due to higher
professional expenses associated with marketing the two remaining
Properties, which was partially offset by a decease in
administrative expenses.
