	 Notes to Condensed Financial Statements (unaudited)

	 Note A - Basis of Presentation

		       The accompanying unaudited condensed financial
	    statements have been prepared in accordance with the
	    instructions to Form 10-Q and therefore do not include all
	    information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation
	    of financial position, results of operations and statement of
	    cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting
	    principles.  The accompanying unaudited condensed financial
	    statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal
	    recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of the partners
	    in Registrant, necessary for a fair statement of the results
	    for such interim periods.  The partners in Registrant believe
	    that the accompanying unaudited condensed financial
	    statements and the notes thereto fairly disclose the
	    financial condition and results of Registrant's operations
	    for the periods indicated and are adequate to make the
	    information presented therein not misleading.

	    Note B - Interim Period Reporting

		       The results for interim periods are not
	    necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a
	    full year. 

		       Registrant was organized on March 21, 1958.
	    Registrant owns the tenant's interest in the master operating
	    leasehold (the "Master Lease") of the buildings located at
	    500 and 512 Seventh Avenue and 228 West 38th Street, New
	    York, New York (the "Property").  Registrant's partners are
	    Peter L. Malkin and Stanley Katzman (the "Partners").  The
	    land underlying the buildings is owned by an unaffiliated
	    third party and is leased to Registrant under a long-term
	    ground lease (the "Lease").  The current term of the Lease
	    expires on May 1, 2024.  The Lease provides for one 21-year
	    renewal option.  If this option is exercised, the Lease will
	    expire on May 1, 2045.  The annual rent payable by Registrant
	    under the Lease is $487,500 during the current and the
	    renewal term.

		       Registrant does not operate the Property, but
	    subleases the Property to 500-512 Seventh Avenue Associates
	    (the "Sublessee") pursuant to a net operating sublease (the
	    "Sublease"), the current renewal term of which will expire on
	    April 30, 2024.  The Sublease provides for one renewal option
	    co-extensive with the lease.  Peter L. Malkin, a partner in
	    Registrant, is also a partner in Sublessee.  The Partners in
	    Registrant are also members of the law firm of Wien & Malkin
	    LLP, counsel to Registrant and to Sublessee (the "Counsel").
	    See Note C of this Item 1 ("Note C"). <PAGE>
	 Navarre-500 Building Associates                                 6.

	 June 30, 1997


		       Under the Sublease, Sublessee must pay (i) annual
	    basic rent of $1,167,500 during the current renewal term and
	    the additional renewal term (the "Basic Rent") and (ii)
	    additional rent to Registrant during the current term and the
	    renewal term equal to 50% of Sublessee's net operating profit
	    in excess of $620,000 for each lease year ending June 30 (the
	    "Additional Rent").  

		       For the lease year ended June 30, 1997, Sublessee
	    will pay Additional Rent of $914,281.  After additional
	    payment for supervisory services of $81,828 to Counsel, the
	    balance of $832,453 will be distributed to the Participants
	    on August 29, 1997.  Additional Rent income is recognized
	    when earned from the Sublessee, at the close of the lease
	    year ending June 30.  No Additional Rent is accrued by
	    Registrant for the period between Sublessee's lease year and
	    Registrant's fiscal year.  

	    Note C - Supervisory Services

		      Registrant pays Counsel, for supervisory services
	    and disbursements, $40,000 per annum (the "Basic Payment")
	    plus 10% of all distributions to Participants in any year in
	    excess of the amount representing a return at the rate of 23%
	    per annum on their remaining original cash investment in
	    Registrant (the "Additional Payment").  At June 30, 1997,
	    such remaining cash investment was $3,200,000, representing
	    the original cash investment of the Participants in
	    Registrant.

		      No remuneration was paid during the three and six
	    month periods ended June 30, 1997 by Registrant to either of
	    the Partners as such.  Pursuant to the fee arrangements
	    described herein, Registrant paid Counsel $10,000 and
	    $20,000, respectively, of the Basic Payment for supervisory
	    services for the three and six month periods ended June 30,
	    1997.  In the three month periods ended June 30, 1997 and
	    June 30, 1996, an Additional Payment of $50,000 was made.  

		      The supervisory services provided to Registrant by
	    Counsel include legal, administrative nd financial services.
	    The legal and administrative services include acting as
	    general counsel to Registrant, maintaining all of its
	    partnership records, performing physical inspections of the
	    Building, reviewing insurance coverage and conducting annual
	    partnership meetings.  Financial services include monthly
	    receipt of rent from the Sublessee, payment of monthly rent
	    to the fee owner, payment of monthly and additional
	    distributions to the Participants, payment of all other
	    disbursements, confirmation of the payment of real estate
	    taxes, review of financial statements submitted to Registrant<PAGE>

	 June 30, 1997


	    by the Sublessee, review of financial statements audited by
	    and tax information prepared by Registrant's independent
	    certified public accountant, and distribution of such
	    materials to the Participants.  Counsel also prepares
	    quarterly, annual and other periodic filings with the
	    Securities and Exchange Commission and applicable state
	    authorities. 

		      Reference is made to Note B for a description of
	    the terms of the Sublease between Registrant and Sublessee.
	    The respective interests, if any, of the Partners in the
	    Registrant and Sublessee arise solely from their respective
	    ownership of participations, if any, in Registrant and, in
	    the case of Mr. Malkin, his ownership of a partnership
	    interest in Sublessee.  The Partners receive no extra or
	    special benefit not shared on a pro rata basis with all other
	    Participants in Registrant or partners in Sublessee.
	    However, each of the Partners, by reason of his respective
	    partnership interest in Counsel, is entitled to receive his
	    share of any legal fees or other remuneration paid to such
	    law firm for legal services rendered to Registrant and
	    Sublessee.

		      As of June 30, 1997, the Partners owned of record
	    and beneficially $33,125 of participations in Registrant,
	    representing less than 2% of the currently outstanding
	    participations therein.

		      In addition, as of June 30, 1997, certain of the
	    Partners in Registrant (or their respective spouses) held
	    additional Participations as follows:

		      Peter L. Malkin, Trustee of Mattee Saunders 1983
		      Trust, owned $7,500 of Participations.  Mr. Malkin
		      disclaims any beneficial ownership of such
		      Participations.

		      Isabel W. Malkin, the wife of Peter L. Malkin,
		      owned of record and beneficially $5,000 of
		      Participations.  Mr. Malkin disclaims any
		      beneficial ownership of such Participations.

		      Stanley Katzman owned of record as a trustee, but
		      not beneficially, $5,000 of Participations.  Mr.
		      Katzman disclaims any beneficial ownership of such
		      Participations.  

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

		      As stated in Note B, Registrant was organized for
	    the purpose of acquiring the Master Lease subject to a net<PAGE>
	 Navarre-500 Building Associates                                 8.

	 June 30, 1997


	    operating sublease held by Sublessee.  Basic Rent received
	    under the Sublease is used to pay annual rent due under the
	    Master Lease and the Basic Payment to Counsel for supervisory
	    services.  The balance of the Basic Rent is distributed to
	    the Participants.  Additional Rent is distributed to the
	    Participants after the Additional Payment to Counsel.  See
	    Note C of Item 1 above.  Pursuant to the Sublease, Sublessee
	    has assumed sole responsibility for the condition, operation,
	    repair, maintenance and management of the Property.
	    Registrant has no requirement to maintain substantial
	    reserves or otherwise maintain liquid assets to defray any
	    operating expenses of the Property.

		      Registrant does not pay dividends.  During the
	    three and six month periods ended June 30, 1997, Registrant
	    made regular monthly distributions of $83.33 for each $5,000
	    participation ($1,000 per annum for each $5,000
	    participation).  There are no restrictions on Registrant's
	    present or future ability to make distributions; however, the
	    amount of such distributions depends solely on the ability of
	    Sublessee to make payments of Basic Rent and Additional Rent
	    to Registrant in accordance with the terms of the Sublease.
	    Registrant expects to make distributions so long as it
	    receives the payments provided for under the Sublease.  See
	    Note B of Item 1 above.  

		 Registrant's results of operations are affected
	    primarily by the amount of rent payable to it under the
	    Sublease.  The amount of Additional Rent payable to
	    Registrant is affected by the cycles in the New York City
	    economy and real estate rental market.  It is difficult for
	    management to forecast the New York City real estate market
	    over the next few years.  

		      The following summarizes, with respect to the
	    current period and the corresponding period of the previous
	    year, the material factors affecting Registrant's results of
	    operations for such periods.  

		      Total income decreased for the three and six month
	    periods ended June 30, 1997 as compared with the three and
	    six month periods ended June 30, 1996.  Such decrease
	    resulted from a decrease in Additional Rent payable by
	    Sublessee for the lease year ended June 30, 1997.  See Note
	    B.  

		      Total expenses decreased for the three and six
	    month periods ended June 30, 1997 as compared with the three
	    and six month periods ended June 30, 1996.  Such decrease
	    resulted from a decrease in the Additional Payment to be made
	    to Counsel based on the Additional Rent for the lease year
	    ended June 30, 1997.  See Note B.  <PAGE>

			   Liquidity and Capital Resources

		      There has been no significant change in
	    Registrant's liquidity for the three and six month periods
	    ended June 30, 1997 as compared with the three and six month
	    periods ended June 30, 1996. 

		      Registrant anticipates that funds for working
	    capital for the Property will be generated by operation of
	    the Building by the Sublessee, which entity in turn is
	    required to make payments of Basic Rent and Additional Rent
	    under the Sublease and, to the extent necessary, from
	    additional capital investment by the partners in Sublessee
	    and/or external financing.  Registrant foresees no need to
	    make material commitments for capital expenditures while the
	    Sublease is in effect.  

				      Inflation

		      Registrant believes that there has been no material
	    change in the impact of inflation on its operations since the
	    filing of its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended
	    December 31, 1996, which report and all exhibits thereto are
	    incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof.

			     PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

	    Item 1.   Legal Proceedings.

		      The Property of Registrant is the subject of the
	    following pending litigation: 

		      Wien & Malkin LLP, et. al. v. Helmsley-Spear, Inc.,
	    et. al.  On June 19, 1997 Wien & Malkin LLP and Peter L.
	    Malkin filed an action in the Supreme Court of the State of
	    New York, on behalf of themselves and various partnerships,
	    including Registrant, against Helmsley-Spear, Inc. and Leona
	    Helmsley.  The filing of the action was accompanied by a
	    motion for a Temporary Restraining Order and a Preliminary
	    Injunction by which the plaintiffs sought the return of over
	    $5,000,000 in Empire State Building Company funds which were
	    being wrongfully held by Helmsley-Spear, Inc., an order
	    preventing Leona Helmsley from further violations of the
	    partnership agreements of the partnerships, and expedited
	    discovery of Helmsley-Spear, Inc. and Leona Helmsley
	    regarding the financial status of Helmsley-Spear, Inc.  In
	    their complaint, plaintiffs seek the same relief requested in
	    the motion for a Temporary Restraining Order and Preliminary
	    Injunction, as well as the removal of Helmsley-Spear, Inc. as
	    managing and leasing agent for all of the buildings owned by<PAGE>

	    the partnerships on whose behalf the action was brought.
	    Plaintiffs also seek an order precluding Leona Helmsley from
	    exercising any partner management powers in the partnerships.
	    Justice Ira Gammerman ordered that argument on plaintiff's
	    motion be heard June 24, and on the date ordered further
	    argument on July 14, 1997.  Defendants filed opposition
	    papers to the motion for a Temporary Restraining Order and
	    Preliminary Injunction on June 26 and cross-moved for
	    arbitration on July 10.  Plaintiffs filed reply papers on
	    July 14, and defendants filed reply papers on their
	    cross-motion for arbitration on July 26, 1997.  Both motions
	    are currently before the court.  In addition, plaintiffs have
	    served document requests on both defendants and notices of
	    deposition on the officers of Helmsley-Spear, Inc. and Leona
	    Helmsley.


	    Item 6.   Exhibits and Reports on Form 8-K.

		      (a)  The exhibits hereto are being incorporated by
	    reference.  

		      (b)  Registrant filed a Form 8-K on July 1, 1997
	    reporting the commencement of an action against Helmsley-
	    Spear, Inc. and Leona M. Helmsley.  See Item 1.<PAGE>
