NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Community Renewal (DHCR), a New York State regulatory agency. The Company is
located in lower Manhattan and operates approximately 1,600 rental units ranging
in size from studios through three bedroom apartments. The Company requires one
(1) month's rent as a security deposit on all apartments.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES.
-------------------------------------------
REVENUE RECOGNITION
-------------------
The Company recognizes revenue in the accounting period that corresponds to the
month for which rental income is billed. Rents received but not recognized as
revenue as of September 30, are recorded as unearned rental income.
ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS
-------------------------------
Bad debts are provided on the allowance method based on historical experience
and management's evaluation of outstanding rents receivable.
FIXED ASSETS
------------
Fixed assets consists primarily of building improvements and equipment and are
recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided for financial statement purposes on
the straight-line method, over the estimated useful lives, of the fixed asset,
which range from 5 to 30 years. For federal income tax purposes, depreciation is
provided on the straight-line and accelerated methods.
Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred
(See Note 9). Upon sale or retirement of property, the cost and accumulated
depreciation are removed from the respective accounts and any gain or loss is
reflected in operations for the year. Depreciation expense for the periods ended

(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES, continued
-------------------------------------------------------
INCOME TAXES
------------
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference
between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities, using
enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected
to reverse.
CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK
----------------------------
The Company places its cash and investments for its Replacement Fund (See
Note 3) with a high credit quality institution. At times such investments may be
in excess of FDIC insured limits.
RECLASSIFICATIONS
-----------------
Certain 1995 amounts have been reclassified for purposes of comparison with the
1996 presentation.
ESTIMATES
---------
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
-----------------------------------
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of
each class of financial instruments:
1. Cash and cash equivalents - The carrying amounts approximate fair
value because of the short maturity of these instruments.
2. Investments - Fair value approximates quoted market value.
3. Receivables - The carrying amount approximates fair value because of
the short maturity of these instruments.
4. Debt - The carrying amounts approximate fair value based on borrowing
rates currently available to the Company for bank loans with
similar terms.

==========
NOTE 4 - LONG-TERM DEBT
--------------
Long-term debt represents a mortgage payable to The Greater New York Savings
Bank, collateralized by land, buildings and boiler, due July 1, 1997. Monthly
payments inclusive of interest at 10% per annum are $63,642 and the balance of
the principal is due on July 1, 1997. Principal payments due on this mortgage
for the next two years are approximately $40,000 (1996-three months) and
$6,008,000 (1997). The Company is currently negotiating a modification and
extension of this mortgage with The Greater New York Savings Bank.
NOTE 5 - DIVIDENDS PAYABLE AND CAPITAL STOCK
-----------------------------------
The holders of the Company's capital stock cannot at any time receive, in
repayment of their investment, any sums in excess of the par value of the stock
together with cumulative dividends at the rate of 6% of par value per annum
(without interest). Any surplus in excess of such amounts upon dissolution
reverts to the public authorities. Cumulative dividends unpaid to September 30,
1996 amounted to $527,887 or approximately $3.58 per share. Dividends amounting
to $19,023 were declared during 1979, but were not paid as of September 30,

paid in 1996 or 1995.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 AND 1995
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 6 - INCOME TAXES
------------
Deferred tax assets are due primarily to the different methods of depreciation
of fixed assets and write-offs for accounts receivable used for financial
reporting and tax reporting purposes. Valuation allowances are established when
necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
Income tax expense is the tax payable or refundable for the period plus or minus
the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.
Net deferred tax assets in the accompanying balance sheets are as
follows:
September 30, 1996
------------------
Total Deferred Tax Asset $545,000
Less: Valuation Allowance 353,000
--------
Net Deferred Tax Asset $192,000
========
There has been no change in the allowance for the nine months ended of
September 30, 1996.
NOTE 7 - MANAGEMENT FEE
--------------
The management fee, set by DHCR, was paid to Cherry Green Property Corp., the
owner of approximately 95% of the outstanding shares of the Company. Such fee is
reviewed and adjusted annually effective July 1 of each year, by the DHCR.
On March 8,1996, the DHCR approved a 2.3% increase in the management fee
effective July 1, 1995.
NOTE 8 - PENSION PLAN
------------
Certain employees of the Company are covered under a union sponsored, multi-
employer defined benefit pension plan. This plan is not administered by the
Company and contributions are determined by the union. Contributions for this
plan were approximately $53,000 and $33,000 for the nine months ended September
30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

NOTE 9 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
-----------------------------
As of September 30, 1996, the Company was in arrears on its contributions as
required by DHCR to its' special fund for replacements, painting and decorating
in the amount of approximately $87,000 (Note 3).
The Company has future commitments for expenditures relating to lead paint
remediation and asbestos abatement of approximately $400,000 for the years
ending December 31, 1996 and 1997. Costs of any additional expenditures relating
to the Company's buildings, if necessary, cannot be determined at this time. No
costs have been accrued in the financial statements as of September 30, 1996.
NOTE 10 - DEPARTURE FROM GENERALLY ACCEPTED ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES
-------------------------------------------------------
The Company has a policy of expensing appliances as they are purchased, rather
than capitalizing these fixed assets to conform with generally accepted
accounting principles. Management's experience has indicated that the normal
useful life of such appliances (including refrigerators and stoves) were
considerably shorter. This departure from generally accepted accounting
principles results in a decrease in the Company's net income of approximately
$9,000 for each of the nine months ended September 20, 1996 and 1995
respectively.
NOTE 11 - RENTAL INCOME
-------------
During April, 1996, the Company received a two step rent increase, which was
approved by the DHCR. The first increase of approximately 5.5% was effective
June 1, 1996 and the second increase of approximately 5.3% will be effective
June 1, 1997.
