NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1
As permitted by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the accompanying
Unaudited Financial Statements and footnotes have been condensed and therefore,
do not contain all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting
principles. Reference should be made to the Company's Annual Report Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 1997, filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.
NOTE 2
In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying Unaudited Financial
Statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring
accruals) necessary to present fairly its financial position as of September 30,
1998 and 1997, and the results of operations for the nine months then ended.
NOTE 3
The results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and
1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full
year.
NOTE 4 - Taxes
The net income for Federal income tax purposes is $107,868,410 (September
30, 1998) and $6,538,067 (September 30, 1997) as compared with net income of
$108,545,353 and $5,935,236, respectively, as shown in the statement of
operations. The differences result principally from (a) rents received in
advance and recognized currently for income tax purposes, and (b) differences in
depreciation expense resulting from differences in the basis of real estate for
tax and financial reporting purposes.
NOTE 5 - Mortgage Payable
During the nine months ended on September 30, 1998, IPA made a principal
payment in the amount of $12,500,000 reducing the mortgage balance from
$36,847,488 as of January 1, 1998 to $24,347,488 as of September 30, 1998. The
payment was applied to the 261 Fifth Avenue, 245 Fifth Avenue and 1440 Broadway,
New York, New York.
The $8,000,000 first mortgage loan on 1328 Broadway Building, New York,
New York (in which IPA has a 50% tenancy in common interest) which became due on
November 24, 1997 and was extended to April 24, 1998, has been further extended
to April 30, 1999, at the interest rate of 8.5% per annum. There shall be no
more extensions of the forbearance period beyond April 30, 1999.

NOTE 6 - Sale of Ground Lease
On January 22, 1998, IPA sold to an unrelated party its position as ground
tenant under its lease with the City of Newark, New Jersey on the property
located at 1180 Raymond Blvd. in Newark. As a consequence of the transaction,
IPA is relieved of liability for ground lease rent and real estate taxes on the
property from and after January 22, 1998. As of the date of the sale of the
ground lease, IPA was incurring operating losses of approximately $65,000 per
month with respect to 1180 Raymond Blvd. For federal income tax purposes, the
capital gain arising from this transaction is $720,102 as compared with $611,700
for financial statement purposes.
NOTE 7 - Sale of Chicago Properties
On September 28, 1998, IPA sold its five Chicago commercial properties for
$121,000,000. The sales proceeds would be used to first pay mortgage debt,
loans, closing costs and other commitments, aggregating approximately
$65,000,000. IPA made a special distribution in accordance with the IPA's
partnership agreement in the amount of $57,400,000. The gain on sale of
properties amounted to $99,342,388 for federal income tax purposes as compared
with $100,683,897 for financial statement purposes.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Gross revenue from rentals for 1998 decreased approximately 2.84% as
compared to 1997. The decrease was due primarily to the sale of the ground lease
of 1180 Raymond Blvd. and sale of 24 Commerce Building in Newark, New Jersey.
Also, the net decrease in rental in New York properties and Chicago properties.
The increase in other expenses in 1998 as compared to 1997 is principally
attributable to the increase in various repairs offset by the decrease in
contract cleaning, heating cost, insurance and payroll.
The decrease in real estate taxes was attributable primarily to the sale
of the ground lease of 1180 Raymond Blvd., and sale of 24 Commerce Building in
Newark, New Jersey and the lower assessment in the Chicago properties.
The decrease in leasehold rentals was due to the sale of the ground lease
of 1180 Raymond Blvd.
The decrease in interest expense was due to the reduction in mortgage
principal balance. The decrease in depreciation and amortization of real estate
was primarily due to the sale of the ground lease of 1180 Raymond Blvd. and sale
of 24 Commerce Building in Newark, New Jersey.
On September 28, 1998, IPA sold its five Chicago commercial properties
(the "Chicago Properties") for $121,000,000. The sales proceeds were applied
first to the payment of mortgage debt ($10,000,000), loans ($18,000,000),
closing costs ($3,500,000) and other commitments ($33,500,000), which payments
aggregated approximately $65,000,000. IPA made a special distribution to its
partners following the end of the September 30, 1998 quarter to partners of
records on October 30, 1998, in the amount of $57,400,000. The gain on the sale
of the Chicago Properties for financial reporting purposes was $100,683,897, as
compared with the gain reported for federal income tax purposes of $99,342,388.
During the three month period and the nine month period ended September
30, 1998, approximately 32% and 35%, respectively, of IPA's Gross Revenues from
Real Estate and 33% and 39%, respectively, of IPA's expenses, were attributable
to the Chicago Properties.
Liquidity and Capital Resources - The sale of the Chicago Properties
permitted IPA to discharge its obligations relating to the Chicago Properties.
IPA's cash generated from operations plus its ability to refinance certain
mortgage obligations provide it with the resources needed to meet its
anticipated obligations including operating expenses, mortgage amortization and
required distributions to partners.
Year 2000 Status - IPA's properties are managed by Helmsley-Spear, Inc.
("Helmsley-Spear") which is undertaking systems and equipment replacement
independently and in conjunction with third parties. Helmsley-Spear has advised
IPA that all systems will be Y2K compliant, with appropriate testing completed,
not later than the second quarter of 1999. Helmsley-Spear has advised IPA that
systems which have been evaluated include fire and security, HVAC, lighting,
elevators, and accounting and financial records. IPA intends to rely on
Helmsley-Spear with respect to insuring that the systems and equipment of IPA is
Y2K compliant. IPA and its operations are dependent on Helmsley-Spear to
effectively continue IPA's activities.
