PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Item 1.  Financial Statements.

         The combined financial statements included herein have been prepared
by the registrant, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission.  Certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted
pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the registrant believes that
the disclosures contained herein are adequate to make the information presented
not misleading.  It is suggested that these combined financial statements be
read in conjunction with the combined financial statements and the notes
thereto included in the registrant's latest annual report on Form 10-K.

         The unaudited "Combined Balance Sheets" as of September 30, 1994 and
December 31, 1993 and "Selected Financial Data, Combined Statements of Income
and Combined Statements of Changes in Cash" for the periods ended September 30,
1994 and 1993, of the registrant, and "Notes to Combined Financial Statements,"
presented in the registrant's Third Quarter Report, September 30, 1994, are
incorporated herein by reference.  These financial statements reflect, in the
opinion of the  registrant, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
accruals) necessary to present fairly the combined financial position and
results of operations for the respective periods in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles consistently applied.

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

         In August 1994, the registrant acquired a 345-unit apartment complex in
Durham, NC for $19 million in an all cash transaction.  The $19 million had
been invested in short term investments.

         In September 1994, the registrant contracted to sell on January 15,
1995 its 50% ownership interests in two malls located in Wilkes-Barre, PA and
Fairmount, WV for $35.5 million.  The contract provides for a $2 million
payment in 1994, a $27.5 million payment to be received in January 1995 and a
note of $6 million with an interest rate of 9% due in January of 1998.  The
proceeds will be net of $4.7 million of existing mortgages secured by the
properties and results in a gain of $29.9 million given the registrant's basis
of $10.3 million in the two properties.  This transaction will be recorded by
the registrant in January 1995.  Proceeds of this transaction will be used for
debt reduction, tenant alterations, capital improvements, and property
acquisitions.

         Income from operations was $1.6 million and $2.9 million for the three
months ended September 30, 1994 and 1993, respectively, and $4.9 million and
$8.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1994 and 1993,
respectively.

         Income from property operations, which is rents less operating expenses
and real estate taxes, for properties in the portfolio for both the three and
nine month periods of 1994 and 1993, decreased when comparing these periods.
These decreases were primarily caused by the one time recognition in 1993 of a
real estate tax refund from two office buildings.  The apartment complex
acquisition in August 1994 positively impacted income from property operations
when comparing the three and nine month periods of 1994 to the same periods of
1993.

         Short term investment interest income increased when comparing the same
periods of 1994 to that of 1993 because of investments in short term securities
averaging approximately $31 million during the third quarter of 1994 and $35
million for the nine months ended September 30, 1994.  In 1993, the registrant
had an average of approximately $1 million invested in short term investments.
The large increase in short term investments from 1994 to 1993 was due to the
registrant borrowing $38 million under one of its lines of credit on December
31, 1993 and subsequently investing the funds in short term securities.  In
August 1994, the registrant used $19 million of short term investments to
purchase the Durham, NC apartment complex.




<PAGE>   3
         Mortgage interest expense increased when comparing the third quarter
and nine months of 1994 to the same periods of 1993.  This increase was caused
primarily by the $35 million mortgage, secured by a shopping mall in St. Cloud,
MN.  This mortgage was recorded in September 1993.

        Senior notes interest expense increased in the third quarter and first
nine months of 1994 as compared to the same periods of 1993.  The increase was
caused by the issuance of $100 million of 8.875% senior notes on October 1,
1993.  The proceeds were primarily used to repay $45 million of 8.375% senior
notes and $37.6 million of 10.25% convertible debentures on November 1, 1993.

        General and administrative costs increased when comparing the third
quarter and nine months of 1994 to the same periods of 1993.  The increase in
expenses resulted from professional fees related to the registrant's
reorganization of the portfolio and management, expenses associated with the
new long term incentive performance plan and increased staffing to execute the
new strategic plan.

        Net income was $1.6 million and $2.9 million for the third quarter of
1994 and 1993, respectively, and $4.9 million and $13.4 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 1994 and 1993, respectively.  Capital gains included
in net income during the nine months of 1993 were $4.8 million.  The majority
of the capital gains was from an installment sale of an office building in
1983.

        There has been no material change in the registrant's financial
condition from December 31, 1993.

                     Notes to Combined Financial Statements
                     --------------------------------------

1.  Income per share of beneficial interest has been computed based on weighted
    average shares and share equivalents outstanding for the applicable
    periods.  The shares issuable upon conversion of the convertible
    subordinated debentures were not included in the per share computation
    because they were not dilutive.

2.  Capital gains recognized included $4.7 million for nine months ended
    September 30, 1993, from an installment sale which occurred in 1983.  The
    final installment from this sale was received in June 1993.  Capital gains
    for the nine months ended September 30, 1993 also included $71,000 from the
    sale of a small land parcel.
