         by the Partnership, without audit, pursuant to the rules and
         regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The
         Partnership's accounting and financial reporting policies are in
         conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and include
         all adjustments in interim periods considered necessary for a fair
         presentation of the results of operations. 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. It is
         suggested that these condensed financial statements be read in
         conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto
         included in the Partnership's latest annual report on Form 10-KSB.

         The accompanying financial statements reflect the Partnership's results
         of operations for an interim period and are not necessarily indicative
         of the results of operations for the year ending December 31, 1997.

2.       TAXABLE LOSS

         The Partnership's taxable loss for 1997 is expected to differ from that
         for financial reporting purposes primarily due to accounting
         differences in the recognition of depreciation incurred by the
         Operating Partnership and differences in the recognition of expenses
         accrued and payable to related parties (who are unaffiliated with the
         general partner) not deductible until the year of payment for tax
         purposes.

3.       INVESTMENT IN OPERATING PARTNERSHIP

         The Partnership accounts for its investment in One Financial Place
         Partnership (the "Operating Partnership") using the equity method of
         accounting. Under the equity method of accounting, the initial
         investment is recorded at cost, increased or decreased by the
         Partnership's share of income or losses, and decreased by
         distributions. Equity in the loss of the Operating Partnership is no
         longer recognized once the investment balance reaches zero.

         The loss from the Operating Partnership, not recognized since the
         investment balance reached zero, will be offset against the
         Partnership's share of future income from the Operating Partnership.

Item 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

This Item should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and other
items contained elsewhere in the report.

The Partnership's primary source of liquidity is distributions from Financial
Place 1994 Limited Partnership ("New LP") and OFP Corporation ("Newco"). New LP
and Newco are the sole partners of One Financial Place Partnership (the
"Operating Partnership"). The Operating Partnership owns and operates a 39-story
office building and a three-story trading annex located in Chicago, Illinois.
The Partnership has not received any distributions for the past five years, and
none are expected in the foreseeable future. This is based on the current
commercial real estate market in Chicago and the current status with the
mortgage lenders.

The Partnership requires cash to pay operating expenses associated with
reporting to its Limited Partners, including audit, printing and mailing costs.
Although there is no requirement to do so, Winthrop Financial Co., Inc.
("Winthrop"), a general partner of the Registrant, has made loans to the
Partnership since 1991 to cover the cost of these operating expenses. There can
be no assurance, however, that Winthrop will continue to fund the Partnership's
operating deficits. To date, Winthrop has advanced $255,568 to the Partnership,
of which $9,978 was advanced during the first quarter of 1997. These loans are
non-interest bearing and are to be repaid out of cash distributions if any,
which the Partnership receives from Newco or New LP. The loans are to be repaid
prior to the Partnership making any cash distributions to its Limited Partners.
In addition, an investor service fee payable to an affiliate of the General
Partner of $250,000 per year continued to accrue during the period ending March
31, 1997. At March 31, 1997, the amount accrued was $2,312,500.
