                     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, 1998,  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 March 31, 1999 and the results of
operations for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998.

NOTE 3

The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998 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  $3,122,954  (March 31, 1999)
and  $3,413,505  (March 31, 1998) as compared with net income of $3,415,467  and
$3,100,791  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 - Mortgages Payable

On March 24,  1999,  the Company  paid the  scheduled  March 15, 1999  principal
payment of $1,000,000 to Chase  Manhattan  Bank.  The payment was applied to 261
Fifth Avenue and 245 Fifth Ave., New York, New York.

The $8,000,000 first mortgage loan on 1328 Broadway Building, New York, New York
(in which the  Company has a 50% tenancy in common  interest)  which  became due
initially on November  24, 1997 was extended to April 30, 1999,  at the interest
rate of 8.5% per annum. The mortgage was further extended to May 31, 1999 at the
same interest rate. Discussions are being held regarding new terms.

NOTE 6

On April 14, 1999, the Company sold Mojud Building in Long Island City, New York
for  $6,500,000.  The sales  proceeds  would be used to first pay mortgage debt,
closing costs, other commitments and future distributions to the partners.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
        FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

      Gross  revenue from  rentals for 1999  decreased  approximately  37.39% as
compared to 1998. The decrease was primarily due to the sale of the five Chicago
properties  (the  "Chicago  Properties")  in 1998  offset in part by increase in
rental in New York properties.

      The increase in interest income was due to the proceeds  received from the
sale of Chicago Properties invested in Commercial Paper.

      The decrease in other  expenses in 1999 as compared to 1998 is principally
attributable to the sale of the Chicago Properties.

      The decrease in real estate taxes was primarily  attributable  to the sale
of the Chicago Properties.

      The decrease in leasehold  rentals was due to the sale of the ground lease
of the Chicago Property.

      The decrease in interest expense was due to the repayment of notes payable
to the partners and mortgage principal balance.

      The decrease in depreciation and amortization of real estate was primarily
due to the sale of the Chicago Properties.

      Liquidity  and  Capital  Resources - The  Company'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.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

      The  Company  is  exposed  to  interest  rate  risk on its  variable  rate
mortgages.   On  March  31,  1999,  the  Company  had  total  mortgage  debt  of
approximately  $22,847,000 of which approximately  $18,847,000 (or approximately
82%) is at a variable rate.  All of the Company's  mortgage debt is scheduled to
mature  within the next 12  months.  If the  Company  elects to  refinance  such
mortgage debt upon maturity,  the Company would seek to manage its interest rate
risk  through  the use of  fixed  rate  debt or  interest  rate  derivatives  in
conjunction  with variable rate debt. The Company believes that it can refinance
such mortgage debt at commercially  reasonable  rates,  although there can be no
assurances in this regard.
