                                     PART I

ITEM 1.  BUSINESS
                                     GENERAL

     Pacific Gateway Properties, Inc. (the "Registrant") was incorporated 
under the laws of the State of New York in January 1984 and began its 
operations in April 1984 upon the transfer to it of certain assets formerly 
owned by Perini Corporation and the distribution of shares of the 
Registrant's Common Stock to the stockholders of Perini Corporation in May 
1984.

     The Registrant holds interests in income producing real estate.  As of 
December 31, 1996, the Registrant's portfolio of operating properties 
consists of economic interests in the following:

          (i) Walnut Creek Executive Park, Walnut Creek, California--a 
     418,000 square foot office park consisting of twelve low-rise (one- to 
     three-story) office buildings--100% owned;

          (ii)  South Bay Office Tower, San Jose, California--a 164,000 
     square foot, twelve-story office building--100% owned;

          (iii) North Tucson Business Center, Tucson, Arizona--a one-story,
     91,000 square foot office/industrial building--100% owned;

          (iv)  Weston Office Building, Weston (Fort Lauderdale), Florida--a
     three-story, 15,000 square foot office building--100% owned; 

          (v)   410 First Avenue, Needham, Massachusetts--a single-story 
     office/industrial building totaling 38,000 square feetlocated in a 
     suburb of Boston--100% owned; and

          (vi)  Rincon Center, San Francisco, California--a mixed-use (retail,
     office, apartment) complex in downtown San Francisco.  This two 
     phase project contains 78,000 square feet of retail space, 423,000 
     square feet of office space, 320 apartment units and 720 parking 
     spaces.  The Registrant owns general (non-managing) and limited 
     partnership interests in the partnership that owns Rincon Center totaling
     approximately 22.8%.

In addition to the interests referred to above, on January 17, 1997, the 
Registrant acquired the following properties:

          (i) West Valley Executive Park ("WVEP") (formerly Paulsen Office 
     Park), San Jose, California--a campus style office park comprised of 
     five two-story buildings and one single-story building totaling 165,000
     square feet--100% owned;

          (ii) 930 Montgomery Street, San Francisco, California--a six-story,
     steel frame office building totaling 23,000 square feet--100% owned.

                            MANAGEMENT OF PROPERTIES

     The Registrant manages the operating properties directly or through 
third party management companies.  During 1996, the Registrant also provided 
leasing, construction and/or property management services to Rincon Center 
and other third party owned properties.

                    PROPERTY OWNED IN PARTNERSHIP WITH OTHERS

     The Registrant's portfolio includes its general (non-managing) and 
limited partnership interests in Rincon Center Associates, a California 
limited partnership ("RCA").  RCA owns Rincon Center. The Registrant is not 
the managing general partner of RCA.  Operating and other decisions with 
respect to Rincon Center are generally controlled by the managing general 
partner, an entity that is unrelated to the Registrant; therefore, the 
Registrant has less flexibility with respect to such asset, than if it owned 
it outright.

                           BUSINESS PLAN AND POLICIES

     The Registrant's overall business plan has been to assemble a portfolio 
of income producing properties.  The Registrant has historically focused its 
property acquisitions in four markets: Northern California, Arizona, Florida 
and Massachusetts.  The Registrant's long-term objectives continue to be 
maximizing net cash flow from operations and achieving growth through 
appreciation of asset values.  The current strategic plan of the Registrant 
is to focus on real estate investments on the West Coast with a specific 
emphasis on the San

                                       2

<PAGE>

Francisco Bay Area. The current investment emphasis is on commercial 
properties which require aggressive management and leasing in order to 
maximize their potential.  This strategy is influenced by the following 
factors:  (1) the Registrant's current property portfolio is concentrated on 
the West Coast; and (2) the Registrant believes that geographic concentration 
will influence operational efficiencies.

     The Registrant regularly examines each asset in its portfolio, focusing 
on each property's current cash flow, anticipated cash requirements, the 
economics of its local marketplace, as well as the asset's position in that 
market and the potiential for sale, refinancing,  and return on additional 
investment.  In conjunction with this process, the Registrant from time to 
time offers for sale certain assets to reduce its involvement in certain 
markets, create liquidity and advance the geographic and property type 
concentration and efficiency of the Registrant's operations.  In 1996, the 
Registrant sold its hotel property in Arizona and its shopping center 
property in Florida and completed the refinancing of $14.3 million of 
mortgage debt on the Weston Office Building, North Tucson Business Center and 
South Bay Office Tower. These transactions are more fully discussed in the 
pages that follow.  The Registrant intends to continue to make use of 
borrowed money or leveraging, as is customary with the types of properties it 
intends to own.  The amount of mortgage debt supported by each project 
depends on, among other factors, its cash flow available to service such debt.

                                   COMPETITION

     Within its geographic areas of operation, the Registrant is subject to 
competition from a variety of investors, including insurance companies, 
pension funds, corporate and individual real estate developers, real estate 
investment trusts, and investors with similar investment objectives to those 
of the Registrant.  Some of these competitors have greater financial 
resources, larger staffs and longer operating histories than the Registrant.  
As an owner of commercial real estate properties, the Registrant competes 
with other owners of similar properties in connection with their financing, 
sale, lease, or other disposition and use.

                                    EMPLOYEES

     As of December 31, 1996, the Registrant had 12 full-time and no 
part-time employees, compared to 117 full-time and 5 part-time employees as 
of December 31, 1995.  The reduction in personnel is primarily related to the 
sale of the Registrant's Arizona hotel property in 1996.

  FINANCIAL INFORMATION ABOUT INDUSTRY SEGMENTS, SEASONALITY AND OTHER FACTORS
                                        
     The Registrant is engaged in the business of owning and managing income 
producing real estate.  The requirement for a presentation about industry 
segments is not applicable.  The Registrant's business is not affected by 
seasonal factors, except for its former hotel property investment.   All of 
the Registrant's operations are located in the United States.

                               PROPERTY INSURANCE

     The Registrant believes that all of the wholly owned properties and 
properties owned in partnership with others are adequately covered by 
insurance.  The Registrant's wholly owned San Francisco Bay Area properties 
do not maintain earthquake insurance.

                                     TENANTS

     There are no individual tenants in any of the Registrant's wholly owned 
properties that contribute 10% or more to consolidated revenues, except for 
AirTouch Communications, Inc. (a tenant at Walnut Creek Executive Park), the 
loss of which would have a material adverse effect on the Registrant taken as 
a whole. Netcom On-Line Communications Services, Inc., a tenant at South Bay 
Office Tower, occupies approximately 23% of that building, and does not 
contribute 10% or more to the Registrant's consolidated revenues.  Generally, 
lease terms range from one to five years.  Leases of approximately 101,200 
square feet of rental space, or approximately 15% of the leases in the 
Registrant's investment portfolio as of December 31, 1996, will expire in 
1997.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

As of December 31, 1996, the Registrant had an economic interest in a total 
of six operating properties, and two additional properties were acquired on 
January 17, 1997.

OTHER MATTERS RELATING TO PROPERTIES

                     SOUTH BAY OFFICE TOWER REFINANCING
                                        
     In December 1996, the Registrant completed the refinancing of $9.45 
million of debt related to South Bay Office Tower.  The new loan bears 
interest at 8.66% through maturity.  The loan requires fixed monthly payments 
of $77,000.  The loan is amortized over 25 years and is due January 2007.  
This new loan may be prepaid any time after the first day of the fifth (5th) 
loan year with a 30-day written notice to the lender.  A prepayment 
consideration of the greater of one percent of the loan balance, or the 
present value of all remaining payments of principal and interest is payable 
on the prepayment date.  Concurrent with the closing, the Registrant 
deposited $701,000 with the lender to fund future capital improvements.  In 
addition, the lender held in escrow additional debt proceeds of $940,000 
which will be released to the Registrant upon the completion of certain 
leasing transactions that were in process as of December 31, 1996.  Also, the 
loan required an additional $22,052 per month to be deposited for future 
capital improvements, tenant improvements and leasing commissions until the 
reserve equals $668,000.  The Registrant is required to maintain a minimum 
balance of $668,000 in the reserve during the term of the loan.  These funds 
are included within cash reserved for capital improvements, acquisitions and 
debt service on the Registrant's Consolidated Balance Sheet.
                                        
                           RADISSON SUITES HOTEL SALE
                                        
     In December 1996, the Registrant closed the sale of the the Radisson 
Suites Hotel located in Tucson, Arizona to an unrelated party for 
$21,307,000.  In connection with this property disposition, the Registrant 
realized a gain for financial reporting purposes of $5,814,000.  The pre-tax 
net proceeds, after repayment of $12,011,000 of mortgage debt and other costs 
of the sale amounted to $7,908,000.  The Registrant completed a tax deferred 
exchange in accordance with Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code, in 
January 1997, with the acquisition of West Valley Executive Park and 930 
Montgomery Street, as previously noted.  Accordingly, the Registrant 
recognized a gain of $1,400,000 and deferred a gain of $8,900,000 as a result 
of completing the exchange transaction for tax reporting purposes.

                       WESTON OFFICE BUILDING REFINANCING
                                        
     In October 1996, the Registrant completed the refinancing of $1,000,000 
of debt related to its Weston Office Building in Florida.  The new loan 
carries an 8.45% annual interest rate until maturity with fixed monthly 
amortization payments of approximately $9,818.  The loan is amortized over 15 
years and is due October 2001.  The new loan has no prepayment penalty.  This 
new loan is an obligation of a subsidiary of the Registrant and the 
Registrant provided a guarantee of 50% of the outstanding principal balance, 
or $500,000, whichever is greater.

                    NORTH TUCSON BUSINESS CENTER REFINANCING
                                        
     In September 1996, the Registrant completed the refinancing of 
$3,850,000 of debt related to North Tucson Business Center in Arizona.  The 
new loan carries a 9.62% annual interest rate until maturity with fixed 
monthly amortization payments of approximately $34,000. The loan is amortized 
over 25 years and is due October 2006.  Concurrent with the closing, the 
Registrant deposited $40,768 with the lender to fund future tenant 
improvements and leasing commissions during the term of the loan.  Also, the 
loan requires an additional $3,397 per month to be deposited for future 
tenant improvements and leasing commissions during the term of the loan.  The 
monthly reserve deposit amount may be decreased if certain tenant renewals 
occur.  In addition, the Registrant is required to fund a debt service 
reserve of $8,200 per month until $295,000 has been funded.  These funds are 
included within cash reserved for capital improvements, acquisitions and debt 
service on the Registrant's Consolidated Balance Sheet.

                      VILLAGE COMMONS SHOPPING CENTER SALE

     In April 1996, the Registrant sold the Village Commons Shopping Center 
in West Palm Beach, Florida, to an unrelated party for $19,300,000.  In 
connection with this property disposition, the Registrant realized a gain for 
financial reporting purposes of $10,900,000.  The pre-tax net cash proceeds, 
after repayment of $15,224,000 of mortgage debt and other costs of the sale 
amounted to $3,749,000.

                     410 FIRST AVENUE PLEDGED AS COLLATERAL
                                        
     In 1986, this property was pledged as collateral to secure a $6.25 
million letter-of-credit in favor of RCA's lender.  In July 1993, RCA 
completed refinancing on Phases One and Two and the letter-of-credit was 
reduced to $4.5 million, with $3.65 million allocated to Rincon Center and 
$850,000 allocated to the Registrant's mortgage debt cross collateralized by 
three of its wholly owned properties.

The $850,000 portion was eliminated with the payoff of the mortgage debt from 
the sale of the Radisson Suites Hotel.

                         RECENT PROPERTY ACQUISITIONS 

     On January 17, 1997, the Registrant acquired two properties for an 
aggregate purchase price of $20,750,000.  The equity required to purchase the 
acquired properties was obtained primarily from the Registrant's sale of the 
Radisson Suites Hotel in December 1996.  Neither the Registrant, any 
subsidiary of the Registrant nor any director or officer of the Registrant 
was affiliated with or had a relationship with the respective sellers of the 
acquired properties described below.

     On January 17, 1997, the Registrant completed the purchase of WVEP which 
is a multi-tenant, six building campus style office park located at 4000-4050 
Moorpark Avenue, San Jose, California for $17,500,000 or $106.06 per square 
foot.  WVEP's six buildings contain approximately 165,000 square feet and are 
situated on 7.7 acres.  The Registrant purchased WVEP from Peter Paulsen.  In 
connection with this acquisition, the Registrant assumed approximately 
$10,200,000 in debt from Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada (U.S.) which is 
amortized over 20 years at a fixed annual interest rate of 9.125%, and 
matures on June 30, 2005.  The debt continues to be assumable and is subject 
to a prepayment penalty if paid off prior to maturity.

     On January 17, 1997, the Registrant completed the purchase of 930 
Montgomery Street  which is a multi-tenant, 23,000 square foot, six-story, 
steel frame office building located at 930 Montgomery Street, San Francisco, 
California for $3,250,000 or $141.30 per square foot.  The Registrant 
purchased 930 Montgomery Street from Donlon H. Gabrielsen and Agnes H. 
Gabrielsen. In connection with this acquisition, the Registrant obtained new 
debt of $2,112,500 from Redwood Bank which is amortized over 25 years at a 
floating annual interest rate of 3% over the one year treasury bond rate, 
adjustable every six months, and maturing on February 1, 2002.  This debt can 
be prepaid at any time without a penalty.

ITEM 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     On March 20, 1997, the Registrant filed a Complaint in the San Francisco 
Superior Court, Case No. 985464, against Rincon Center Associates and Perini 
Land and Development Company seeking to recover $812,532.75 in commissions 
due for leasing and construction services performed for Rincon Center.  The 
Complaint is in the process of being served.  Given the fact that the 
Complaint was just filed, and no discovery has been taken, the Registrant is 
not in a position at this time to opine as to the likelihood or remoteness of 
liability, or the amount of damages should liability be established.

     The Registrant is involved in various other claims and lawsuits 
incidental to its business.  In the opinion of the Registrant, these other 
claims and lawsuits in the aggregate will not have a material adverse impact 
on the Registrant's financial condition.

ITEM 7.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
         OF OPERATIONS

FINANCIAL CONDITION

         CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS, TENANT IMPROVEMENTS AND OTHER DEFERRED COSTS -- 
In 1996, there were additions to investment and hotel properties amounting to 
approximately $2,072,000 for tenant improvements, capital improvements and 
other deferred costs which includes leasing commissions.  Additionally, the 
Registrant incurred $254,000 in 1996 relating to loan costs. The Registrant 
anticipates additions to investment properties will amount to approximately 
$2,000,000 in 1997.

         FINANCING -- A total of approximately $39.4 million of debt was repaid 
in 1996 as a result of debt refinancing, the sale of the hotel and shopping 
center and scheduled debt amortization, as more fully discussed in the 
Registrant's Consolidated Financial Statements. The Registrant completed 
refinancings in 1996 related to its mortgage debt at North Tucson Business 
Center, Weston Office Building, and South Bay Office Tower in the amount of 
$14.3 million.

         At December 31, 1996, the Registrant's fixed rate mortgage debt 
totaled approximately $33.7 million bearing interest at a weighted average rate 
of 8.29%.  With the addition of the debt incurred with the January 17, 1997 
acquisitions, the Registrant's fixed rate mortgage debt increased to 
approximately $43.9 million bearing interest at a weighted average rate of 
8.49% and the Registrant has one floating rate mortgage of approximately $2.1 
million bearing interest at a rate of 8.63% as of January 1997.

NET INCOME (LOSS)

         INVESTMENT PROPERTIES -- During 1996, the loss from investment 
properties was $1,181,000 compared to a gain of $747,000 during 1995.  The 
decrease in rental revenues for 1996 compared to 1995 is due to the sale of 
Village Commons Shopping Center (VCSC) and decreased occupancy at Walnut Creek 
Executive Park (WCEP).  The decrease in operating expenses for 1996 compared to 
1995 is primarily attributed to the sale of VCSC and reduced costs at WCEP. The 
increase in interest expense for 1996 compared to 1995 is the result of the 
Registrant's 1996 debt refinancings. The increase in depreciation and 
amortization expense is the result of increased capital expenditures in 1996.  
The additional expense was partially offset by the cessation of depreciation on 
the VCSC property which was held for sale.

         During 1995, the income from investment properties was $747,000 
compared to $385,000 during 1994.  The increase in income from investment 
properties for 1995 compared to 1994 is primarily attributed to increased 
occupancy in 1995 for leases signed in late 1994. Operating expenses increased 
in 1995 from 1994 due primarily to increased occupancy in the Registrant's 
portfolio which was partially offset by a property tax refund received in 1995 
of approximately $120,000 relating to a previously disposed of property.  
Interest expense was constant between 1995 and 1994.  The increase in 
depreciation and amortization expense is the result of commencing depreciation 
on expenditures capitalized in 1995 related to the Registrant's leasing 
activities and capital improvements.

         HOTEL PROPERTY -- In December 1996, the Registrant sold the hotel 
property.  During 1996, the income from the hotel property was $1,013,000 
compared to $1,158,000 during 1995.   The decrease in revenues for 1996 
compared to 1995 is due to the decrease in occupancy which was offset in part 
by an increase in the average daily rate.  Operating expenses were constant 
between 1996 and 1995.  However, operating expenses in 1996 included an asset 
management fee of $446,745 which was paid to the buyer of the hotel as 
consideration for the one year extended close of escrow during 1996.  The 
decrease in interest expense for 1996 compared to 1995 is the result of the 
Registrant's debt restructuring with its primary lender.  The decrease in 
depreciation and amortization expense is the result of the cessation of 
depreciation since this property was held for sale.

         During 1995, the income from the hotel property was $1,158,000 
compared to $827,000 during 1994.  The decrease in revenues for 1995 compared 
to 1994 is due to a decrease in occupancy offset by an increase in the average 
daily rate.  The decrease in operating expenses for 1995 compared to 1994 is 
primarily attributed to leasing the hotel's food and beverage operation to an 
unrelated third party restaurant operator.  The decrease in interest expense 
for 1995 compared to 1994 is the result of the Registrant's debt restructuring 
with its primary lender in December 1993 which was offset by increased 
borrowing in connection with the hotel's refurbishment and higher interest 
rates during the first nine months of 1995.  The increase in depreciation and 
amortization expense is the result of commencing depreciation on expenditures 
capitalized in 1995 related to the hotel's improvements completed in late 1994.

         INVESTMENT IN PARTNERSHIPS -- Subsequent to 1994, the Registrant's 
partnership interests consisted of only its 22.8% combined general 
(non-managing) and limited partnership interests in RCA.  In 1996, the 
Registrant ceased recording any activity related to its interest in RCA because 
(i) in 1995, it had  written-down its equity investment in and loans to RCA to 
zero, and (ii) the Registrant currently has no obligation, prospects or plans 
to invest further in or on behalf of RCA.


                                      11
<PAGE>

         During 1995, the Registrant recorded its 22.8% equity interest in 
RCA's net loss which amounted to $4,090,000.  Additionally, in 1995, the 
Registrant recorded a $540,000 provision for net realizable value to write-down 
the remaining balance of its equity investment in and loans to RCA to zero as 
the Registrant attributed no value to its equity investment in RCA.

         In 1993, the Registrant entered into an agreement with RCA's managing 
general partner whereby such managing general partner agreed to advance funds 
to RCA on behalf of the Registrant on an unsecured non-recourse basis, subject 
to interest at prime plus 2% and certain fees (principal, unpaid interest and 
fees are collectively referred to as the RCA Advances).  The RCA Advances are 
only required to be repaid from the Registrant's share of future distributions 
from RCA, if any.  At December 31, 1995, the RCA Advances amounted to 
$2,940,000.  During 1996, the Registrant recorded a credit to income ("Reversal 
of debt related to investment in RCA" on the Registrant's Consolidated 
Statement of Income (Loss)) to eliminate the previously recorded liability for 
the RCA Advances of $2,940,000 as (i) the Registrant has no intent or legal 
obligation to repay the RCA Advances other than from its share of distributions 
from RCA, if any, and (ii) the Registrant does not anticipate any material cash 
distributions by RCA in the foreseeable future.  During 1996, 1995 and 1994, 
RCA incurred net losses of approximately $16,451,000, $17,924,000 and 
$10,441,000, respectively.  The RCA Advances amount to $3,991,000 at December 
31, 1996.

         During 1995 and 1994, the Registrant recorded interest and fees 
related to the RCA Advances of $340,000 and $199,000, respectively.

         During 1994, the Registrant recorded its 22.8% equity interest in 
RCA's net loss which amounted to $2,383,000.  Additionally, in 1994, the 
Registrant recorded its equity in partnership net income from its partnership 
investment in Golden Gateway Center (GGC) in the amount of $1,085,000.  In 
October 1994, the Registrant's interest in GGC was redeemed by GGC for 
$21,000,000, resulting in a gain of $39,078,000.

         The Registrant projects a negative tax basis for its partnership 
investment in RCA of approximately $22,000,000, as of December 31, 1996, since 
the Registrant's share of tax losses exceeds its investment in RCA.  The 
Registrant's negative tax basis in RCA indicates that the Registrant will face 
a substantial taxable gain if and when its interest in RCA is ever disposed of.

         GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES -- General and administrative 
expenses increased to $1,603,000 in 1996 from $1,476,000 in 1995.  The increase 
in general and administrative expenses are attributable to increased 
professional fees offset by a reduction in payroll costs.  The general and 
administrative expenses remained constant in 1995 and 1994.

         INTEREST EXPENSE ON PARTNERSHIP AND OTHER CORPORATE DEBT -- In 1994, 
interest expense on partnership and other corporate debt included $754,000 
related to that portion of the Registrant's debt with its primary lender which 
was cross-collateralized by the Registrant's partnership interest in GGC.  As a 
result of the redemption of the Registrant's GGC partnership interest in 
October 1994, a portion of the proceeds repaid all of the debt collateralized 
by the GGC partnership interest.

         OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE) -- Other income was $540,000 in 1996 compared 
to an expense of $15,000 in 1995.  The increase in other income is attributable 
to the sale of vacant land in Colorado and business advisory fees, net of 
depreciation on corporate fixed assets.  In 1995, other expense related to 
depreciation on corporate fixed assets.  In 1994, the other income of $260,000 
primarily consisted of income from the sale of vacant land in Colorado and 
Florida, net of depreciation on corporate fixed assets.

         GAIN ON SALE OF REAL ESTATE ASSETS, NET -- In December 1996, the 
Registrant sold the Radisson Suites Hotel in Tucson, Arizona to an unrelated 
party and realized a gain for financial reporting purposes of $5,814,000.  In 
April 1996, the Registrant sold the Village Commons Shopping Center in West 
Palm Beach, Florida, to an unrelated party and realized a gain for financial 
reporting purposes of $10,900,000.   In June 1995, the Registrant disposed of a 
parcel of land in Walnut Creek, California, to an unrelated party and realized 
a gain of $177,000.  In July 1994, the Registrant completed the sale of a 
separately parceled building at the Walnut Creek Executive Park to an unrelated 
party and realized a gain of $664,000.

         PROVISION FOR WRITE-DOWN TO ESTIMATED NET REALIZABLE VALUE -- In 1995, 
the Registrant recorded a provision of approximately $540,000 for the 
write-down to zero of its investment in RCA, as previously discussed. In 1994, 
the Registrant recorded a provision of $1,000,000 for the write down of its 
investment in the 410 First Avenue building as a result of the sole tenant of 
the property not renewing its lease and a substantial reduction in market 
rental rates. 

         INCOME TAX (PROVISION) BENEFIT -- In 1996, the Registrant recorded an 
income tax provision primarily related to the gain on sale of real estate assets
for financial reporting purposes. The Registrant recorded a tax benefit in 1995,
primarily as a result of the income tax effect of the book loss incurred during 
the year. In 1994, the Registrant used a portion of its net operating loss 
carryover to reduce its 1994 taxable income, which resulted in the Registrant 
recording a net $7.4 million provision for income taxes as more fully

discussed in the Registrant's Consolidated Financial Statements included 
elsewhere in this annual report. 

         EXTRAORDINARY GAIN (LOSS) FROM EXTINGUISHMENT OF DEBT -- In December 
1996, the Registrant completed the sale of the Radisson Suites Hotel.  As a 
result of this sale, the Registrant was able to pay off debt to the primary 
lender resulting in an extraordinary gain on extinguishment of debt of $766,000 
which results from the difference between the face value of the debt principal 
and the amount required to extinguish the related obligation, net of the 
related write off of loan fees.  In June 1995, the Registrant completed the 
refinancing of $20 million of debt related to Walnut Creek Executive Park.  As 
a result of this refinancing, the Registrant had written off the unamortized 
loan fees of $233,000 associated with the debt that was retired.  In December 
1994, the Registrant completed a refinancing with the existing lender at South 
Bay Office Tower, San Jose, California, which resulted in additional funding 
and a modification of terms.  As a result, the Registrant had written-off the 
unamortized portion of the 1993 loan fees of $325,000 and capitalized the 1994 
loan fees.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

REGULATION AND SUPERVISION

         Many jurisdictions have adopted laws and regulations relating to the 
ownership of real estate.  Compliance with these requirements from time to time 
may require capital expenditures by the Registrant (for example, expenditures 
necessary in order to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act or 
changes in local building or other codes).  In addition, the Registrant may 
from time to time have to expend capital for environmental control facilities.  
While the ownership of real estate may entail environmental risks and 
liabilities to the owner, the Registrant's management is sensitive to 
environmental issues and is not currently aware of and does not expect any 
material effects on current or future capital expenditures, earnings or 
competitive position resulting from compliance with present federal, state or 
local environmental control provisions.

DISCUSSION OF KNOWN TRENDS, EVENTS AND UNCERTAINTIES

         The economic climate for commercial real estate has begun to show 
signs that rental rates and property values have stabilized and in selected 
markets have actually improved.  Notwithstanding a stabilizing real estate 
market, tenants may or may not continue to renew leases as they expire or may 
renew on less favorable terms.  Conditions differ in each market in which the 
Registrant's properties are located.  Because of the continuing uncertainty of 
future economic developments in each market, the impact these developments will 
have on the Registrant's future cash flow and results of operations is 
uncertain.

         Inflation, inflationary expectations and their effect on interest 
rates may affect the Registrant in the future by changing the underlying value 
of the Registrant's real estate or by impacting the costs of financing the 
Registrant's operations.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         The bulk of the Registrant's resources are committed to relatively 
non-liquid real estate assets.  These assets, due to their value and cash flow, 
have provided the Registrant with an ability to generate capital as required, 
both internally and externally, through asset-based financings.  In addition, 
since 1992, assets or portions thereof were sold to provide further liquidity.

         The Registrant has taken several actions to generate and conserve cash 
as discussed below and continues to review and analyze alternative actions.  At 
the same time, the Registrant is seeking to retain value and identify future 
opportunities for investment.   At December 31, 1996, the Registrant had 
$2,899,000 of unrestricted cash and investment properties with a net book value 
of approximately $32.8 million, total fixed rate, nonrecourse mortgage notes of 
approximately $33.7 million and a year end weighted average stated interest 
rate of 8.29% per annum and stockholders' equity of approximately $2.2 million. 
At December 31, 1996, the Registrant had $9,975,000 of restricted cash, and on 
January 17, 1997, the Registrant utilized $8,422,000 to acquire two properties 
as previously discussed.  Given the Registrant's desire to increase its 
liquidity, the Registrant has actively pursued the sale of selected real estate 
assets in the past, has restructured and refinanced its mortgage debt, and has 
entered into an agreement with the managing general partner of RCA to limit the 
Registrant's cash obligations to RCA.  The Registrant continues to evaluate 
various alternatives to improve its liquidity through debt refinancing and the 
sale of properties which do not fit within its long term strategy. Funds raised 
in the preceding fashion would be used for such things as tenant improvements 
and other capital requirements, certain mandatory debt reductions, and possible 
new investments. 

         Scheduled principal maturities on the above described debt over the 
next twelve months ended December 31, 1997, amount to approximately $622,000. 
The acquisition of WVEP and 930 Montgomery Street properties, subsequent to 
December 31, 1996, will increase the scheduled principal maturities over the 
next twelve months ended December 31, 1997, to a total of approximately 
$846,000.


                                      13
<PAGE>

As discussed in the Registrant's Consolidated Financial Statements, the 
Registrant is also obligated to fund reserves for building, tenant improvements 
and leasing commissions in connection with its mortgage loans on Walnut Creek 
Executive Park, North Tucson Business Center, and South Bay Office Tower.  
Scheduled funding under the various mortgage loan agreements over the twelve 
months ending December 31, 1997, amounts to approximately $516,000.

         Additionally, the Registrant is contingently liable under a bank 
letter-of-credit posted on behalf of RCA and other mortgage debt in the amount 
of $3.65 million.  The letter-of-credit is undrawn at December 31, 1996 and 
matures in June 1997. The Registrant's Massachusetts property is pledged as 
collateral for the letter-of-credit.

         The Registrant's minority, non-managing partnership interest in RCA 
represents significant potential financial exposure.  This exposure includes, 
and may not be limited to, the potential tax liability associated with the 
Registrant's negative tax basis, the joint and several guarantees provided by 
the Registrant to the mortgage lender on Rincon Center Phase Two and the master 
lessor on Rincon Center Phase One, and the potential tax liability that would 
exist from the cancellation of debt in connection with a possible debt 
restructuring.  Additionally, RCA's general partner agreed to advance funds to 
RCA on behalf of the Registrant on an unsecured non-recourse basis, subject to 
interest at prime plus 2% and certain fees (principal, unpaid interest and fees 
are collectively referred to as the RCA Advances).  The RCA Advances amount to 
$3,991,000 at December 31, 1996, and are not recorded by the Registrant since  
(i) the RCA Advances are only required to be repaid from the Registrant's share 
of future distributions from RCA, if any, (ii) the Registrant has no intention 
or legal obligation to repay the RCA Advances other than from its share of 
distributions from RCA, if any, and (iii) the Registrant does not anticipate 
any material cash distributions by RCA in the foreseeable future.

         As of December 31, 1996, the Registrant's mortgage debt had scheduled 
annual principal maturities as follows (in thousands):


                                     Current   Pro Forma 
                                     -------   ---------

                                     -------   ---------

         The Pro Forma column reflects the January 17, 1997, purchase of the 
West Valley Executive Park and the 930 Montgomery Street properties.

         Except as described above, at December 31, 1996, the Registrant has no 
contractual commitments for any material capital expenditures over the next 
twelve months or beyond that are not expected to be funded from cash restricted 
for capital improvements, acquisitions and debt service or future cash flow 
generated by operating activities.  Ongoing repair and maintenance expenditures 
are expected to be funded from cash flow generated by operating activities.  
Future tenant improvements and leasing commissions will be funded, in part, 
from the restricted cash described above, cash flow generated by operating 
activities and funds generated from future debt refinancings or property sales, 
if any.

         The Registrant experienced more stabilized operating results in its 
wholly owned properties in 1996, and, except for RCA, expects this trend to 
continue. In addition, the completion of certain leasing transactions has 
continued to reduce the level of vacancy in the Registrant's portfolio; 
however, the Registrant is continuing to aggressively pursue new leases on 
currently available space and renew existing leases as they expire.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                   FOR THE THREE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996


1.   ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

ORGANIZATION

     Pacific Gateway Properties, Inc., (the "Company") is a New York 
corporation formed in 1984 for the purpose of investing and managing income 
producing real estate. The Company's overall business plan has been to 
assemble a substantial portfolio of income producing properties.  The Company 
historically focused its property acquisitions in four markets: Northern 
California, Arizona, Florida and Massachusetts.  The Company's long-term 
objectives continue to be maximizing net cash flow from operations and 
achieving growth through appreciation of asset values.  The current strategic 
plan of the Company is to focus on real estate investments on the West Coast 
with a specific emphasis on the San Francisco Bay Area.  The current 
investment emphasis is on commercial properties which require aggressive 
management and leasing in order to maximize their potential.  This strategy 
is influenced by the following factors:  (1) the Company's current property 
portfolio is concentrated on the West Coast; and (2) the Company believes 
that geographic concentration will influence operational efficiencies.
 
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

     The Company's Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of 
the Company and all owned subsidiaries and partnerships.  Significant 
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. 
Partnerships in which the Company has less than a 50% interest and has no 
management influence, are accounted for using the equity method. 

REVENUE RECOGNITION

     Rental revenues are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of 
occupancy in accordance with the provisions of the leases.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

     Cash and cash equivalents include cash, commercial paper and money 
market accounts, all of which have original maturities of three months or 
less.

CASH RESTRICTED FOR CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS, ACQUISITIONS AND DEBT SERVICE

     As of December 31, 1996 restricted cash is comprised of the following 
(in thousands):


     Capital, tenant improvement and lease commission reserves      $  915
     Acquisition reserves                                            7,988
     Debt service, property tax and insurance reserves               1,072
                                                                    ------
     Total                                                          $9,975
                                                                    ------
                                                                    ------

INVESTMENT PROPERTIES AND PROPERTIES HELD FOR SALE

     Land, buildings and improvements are recorded at cost. Depreciation on 
investment properties is provided using the straight-line method over 
estimated useful lives ranging from 28 to 40 years.  The Company had 
classified the Radisson Suites Hotel and Village Commons Shopping Center 
properties as held for sale at December 31, 1995, at contract prices less the 
estimated costs of the sale of these properties, which were greater than 
their respective carrying costs.  Both of these properties were sold in 1996. 
 

     In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement 
of Financial Accounting Standard No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of 
Long-Lived Assets and for Long Lived Assets to be Disposed Of" (SFAS 121).  
SFAS 121 requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever 
events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an 
asset may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized when expected 
undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset.  
Measurement of impairment is based upon the fair value of the asset.  The 
Company adopted SFAS 121 in 1995 and the 


                                       23

adoption has not had a material impact upon its financial position and 
results of operations, except that, in accordance with SFAS 121, the Company 
has ceased to provide for depreciation on the properties held for sale. 

INCOME TAXES

     The Company accounts for taxes under Statement of Financial Accounting 
Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" (SFAS 109).  Under SFAS 109, 
deferred taxes are computed based on the difference between the financial 
statement and income tax basis of assets and liabilities using the enacted 
marginal tax rate. 

GAINS FROM REAL ESTATE ASSETS SOLD AND PARTNERSHIP INTEREST REDEEMED

     Gain (loss) on sales of real estate assets and redemption of partnership 
interests are included in the Company's Consolidated Statement of Income 
(Loss) and consists of the following (in thousands):

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

          The preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity 
with generally accepted accounting principles requires the Company's 
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 Consolidated Financial Statements and the reported amounts 
of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could 
differ from those estimates.

          The Company's ability to (i) meet its debt obligations, (ii) 
provide dividends either from operations, or the ultimate disposition of the 
Company's properties or (iii) continue as a going concern may be impacted by 
changes in interest rates, property values, geographic economic conditions, 
or the entry of other competitors to the market.  The Company's wholly owned 
San Francisco Bay Area properties do not maintain earthquake insurance.  The 
accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements do not provide for any 
adjustments with regard to these uncertainties.

RECLASSIFICATIONS

          Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with 
the current year presentation.

2.  REAL ESTATE PARTNERSHIP INVESTMENTS

OPERATING PARTNERSHIPS

RINCON CENTER ASSOCIATES PARTNERSHIP (RCA)--SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA

      The Company owns general (non-managing) and limited partnership 
interests in RCA totaling approximately 22.8% and, subject to the funding 
agreement entered into with RCA's managing general partner, Perini Land & 
Development Company (a wholly owned subsidiary of Perini Corporation), 
discussed below, is responsible for 20% of cash requirements in excess of 
available financing.   The Company's minority, general (non-managing) and 
limited  partnership interests in RCA represents significant potential 
financial exposure.  This exposure includes and may not be limited to the 
potential tax liability associated with the Company's negative tax basis, the 
joint and several guarantees provided by the Company to the mortgage lender 
on Rincon Center Phase Two and the master lessor on Rincon Center Phase One, 
and the potential tax liability that would exist from the cancellation of 
debt in connection with a possible debt restructuring. 

     RCA sold Rincon Center Phase One to Chrysler MacNally Corporation 
(Chrysler) in June 1988; subsequently, RCA leased the property back under a 
master lease which is treated as an operating lease for financial reporting 
purposes.  In July 1993, Chrysler completed a refinancing of Rincon Center 
Phase One.  The maturity date of this debt is July 1, 1998.  Payments under 
the master lease agreement may be adjusted to reflect adjustments in the rate 
of interest payable by Chrysler on the Rincon Center Phase One debt.  The 
master lease also permits Chrysler to put the property back to RCA at 
stipulated prices beginning January 1998 if long-term financing meeting 
certain conditions is not obtained.  RCA intends to try to obtain financing 
meeting the conditions of the master lease prior to January 1998.  In 
September 1993, RCA completed a refinancing of Rincon Center Phase Two with 
its existing lender.  The Company has also posted a $3.65 million 
letter-of-credit in favor of the bank involved in a portion of the RCA 
financing. This letter-of-credit is secured by the Company's 410 First Avenue 
property in Needham, Massachusetts, with a net book value of approximately 
$2.2 million at December 31, 1996.  The letter-of-credit expires June 1997.

     In 1996, the Company ceased recording any activity related to its 
interest in RCA because (i) it had previously written-down its equity 
investment in and loans to RCA to zero in 1995 and (ii) the Company currently 
has no obligation, prospects or plans to invest further in or on behalf of 
RCA.  During 1995, the Company recorded its 22.8% equity interest in RCA's 
net loss which amounted to $4,090,000.  Additionally, in 1995, the Company 
recorded a $540,000 provision for net realizable value to write-down the 
remaining balance of its equity investment in and loans to RCA to zero as the 
Company attributed no value to its equity investment in RCA.

     In 1993, the Company entered into an agreement with RCA's managing 
general partner whereby such managing general partner agreed to advance funds 
to RCA on behalf of the Company on an unsecured non-recourse basis, subject 
to interest at prime plus 2% and certain annual fees (principal, unpaid 
interest and fees are collectively referred to as the RCA Advances).  This 
agreement does not reduce the level of the Company's general and limited 
partnership interests in RCA.  The RCA Advances are only required to be 
repaid from the Company's share of future distributions from RCA, if any.  At 
December 31, 1995, the RCA Advances amounted to $2,940,000. During 1996, the 
Company recorded a credit to income ("Reversal of Debt Related to Investment 
in RCA" on the Company's Consolidated Statement of Income (Loss)) to 
eliminate the previously recorded liability for the RCA Advances of 
$2,940,000 as (i) the Company has no intention or legal obligation to repay 
the RCA Advances other than from its share of distributions from RCA, if any, 
and (ii) the Company does not anticipate any cash distributions by RCA in the 
foreseeable future.  During 1996, 1995 and 1994, RCA incurred net losses of 
approximately $16,451,000, $17,924,000 and $10,441,000, respectively.  The 
RCA Advances amount to $3,991,000 at December 31, 1996.

     During 1995 and 1994, the Company recorded interest and fees related to 
the RCA Advances of $340,000 and $199,000, respectively.  As previously 
discussed, the Company ceased recording any activity relating to RCA in 1996.

     Subsequent to December 31, 1996, the Company has asserted certain claims 
against RCA for payment to the Company by RCA for leasing services provided 
to RCA by the Company during 1996. The Company has not accrued for such 
claims pending resolution of this matter with RCA's managing general partner.

     Summary financial statement data for RCA is as follows (in thousands):

CORPORATE DEBT AND MORTGAGES ON REAL ESTATE
     
     In December 1993, the Company completed a restructuring of its 
non-revolving line-of-credit, letter-of-credit, unsecured bonds, and certain 
mortgages.  The new loan was in the form of a Tranche A and Tranche B Note.  
The Tranche A Note (Note A), with a face amount of approximately $11.4 
million as of December 31, 1995, had a variable interest rate at LIBOR plus 
2.5%.  The Tranche B Note (Note B) with a face amount of approximately $5.9 
million as of December 31, 1995, (including accrued interest) had a fixed 
interest rate of 9%.  Both Notes A and B were paid in full in 1996 using the 
proceeds from the sale of the Radisson Suites Hotel.

     In connection with the 1993 restructuring, the Company issued to the 
primary lender warrants to acquire up to two million shares of the Company's 
common stock of which one million warrants have been canceled leaving one 
million exercisable warrants outstanding at December 31, 1996.  The 
outstanding warrants expire December 11, 1998.  The warrants have customary 
anti-dilution protection that addresses stock splits, stock dividends, 
recombinations and reclassifications, and certain other issuances of 
additional common stock.  The Company also has a right of first offer to 
acquire the shares of common stock or warrants prior to any transfer thereof. 
The Company has valued the one million warrants at $1.89 million which is 
recorded as equity in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet.

     Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 15 required the Company 
to account for future interest resulting from this restructuring using an 
imputed interest rate versus the stated rates on the Notes A and B.  In 
addition, the primary lender's cancellation of debt of $4 million at the time 
of the restructuring was not recognized for financial reporting purposes. In 
connection with the retirement of Notes A and B, the Company recorded an 
extraordinary gain on extinguishment of debt resulting from the difference in 
the face value and the amount required to extinguish the debt, net of the 
write-off of related loan fees.

unspent through December 31, 1996, amounted to $56,000 and is classified

service  on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet.  As a result of this

recorded as an extraordinary item in 1995.

7.  STOCK, WARRANTS AND EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION PLAN

          The Company has two stock option plans, the 1985 Incentive Stock 
Option Plan (the "1985 Plan") and the 1996 Stock Option Plan (the "1996 
Plan").  Under the 1985 Plan, 200,000 shares of the Company's common stock 
were reserved for issuance.  This plan provides for options to be granted at 
fair market value on the date of grant for terms not exceeding ten years.  As 
of December 31, 1996, a total of 57,350 options were outstanding under the 
1985 Plan and no additional grants may be made.  Of such outstanding options, 
35,000 are exercisable in equal cumulative installments over five years 
beginning in 1993 at prices ranging from $2.97 to $3.13 per share and 22,350 
outstanding options are exercisable in equal cumulative installments over 
five years beginning in 1995 at prices ranging from $3.56 to $4.56 per share. 
Under the 1996 Plan, a total of 200,000 shares of Common Stock have been 
reserved for issuance.  This plan provides for options to be granted at fair 
market value on the date of grant for terms not exceeding ten years.  During 
1996, options to purchase an aggregate of 150,000 shares of Common Stock were 
granted at an exercise price of $2.56.  Of such options outstanding under the 
1996 Plan, 40,000 were exercisable in 1996, 50,000 are exercisable in 1998, 
and 10,000 are exercisable in 1999, 2000 and 2001, respectively.

          In October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued 
Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123 "Accounting for Stock 
Based Compensation" (SFAS 123), which establishes financial accounting and 
reporting standards for stock based compensation plans.  As permitted by 
SFAS 123, the Company will continue to account for these plans under APB 
Opinion No. 25, under which no compensation expense has been recognized. The 
additional compensation expense that would have been disclosed as if the 
Company had adopted SFAS 123 is not material in 1996 and 1995.

          A summary of the status of the Company's two stock option plans and 
stock warrants at December 31, 1996, 1995, and 1994 and changes during the 
years then ended is presented in the table and narrative below:

* Included in this amount are one million warrants related to the 1993 debt 
restructuring. These warrants will expire on December 11, 1998.

     The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant 
using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following 
weighted-average assumptions used for grants during 1996: expected dividend 
yield of 0%, expected volatility of 43.4%, risk-free interest rate of 6.29% and 
expected life of 10 years. 

TREASURY STOCK ISSUANCE

     In 1995, the Company issued, as 1994 executive compensation to the 
Company's then Chief Executive Officer, 12,632 shares of Common Stock of the 
Company, held as Treasury Stock, representing the cash equivalent of $45,000 
based upon the mean between the high and low sales prices for such shares 
reported on the date of the grant, December 5, 1994.

401(K) PLAN

     Effective January 1, 1996, the Company adopted a non-contributory 401(k) 
Plan.  All 401(k) Plan contributions are fully vested.  The level of any 
Company contributions are subject to annual review and approval of the 
Company's Board of Directors. As of December 31, 1996, no contributions had 
been made to this plan by the Company.

9. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

     On January 17, 1997, the Company purchased two properties to complete a 
tax deferred exchange in accordance with Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue 
Code, in connection with the sale of the Radisson Suites Hotel.  The first 
acquisition was West Valley Executive Park, a multi-tenant, six building, 
165,000 square foot campus style office park in San Jose, California, that 
was acquired for $17,500,000.  In connection with the acquisition, the 
Company assumed approximately $10,200,000 in mortgage debt from Sun Life 
Assurance Company of Canada (U.S.).  The loan is amortized over twenty (20) 
years at a fixed annual interest rate of 9.125% and matures on June 30, 2005. 
The debt continues to be assumable and is subject to a prepayment penalty if 
paid off prior to maturity.  The second acquisition was a mutli-tenant, 
23,000 square foot, six-story steel frame office building located at 930 
Montgomery Street, San Francisco, California, for $3,250,000.  In connection 
with the 930 Montgomery Street acquisition, the Company obtained $2,112,500 
in mortgage debt from Redwood Bank. The loan is amortized over twenty-five 
(25) years at a floating interest rate of 3% over the one year treasury bond 
rate, adjustable every six months and matures on February 1, 2002.  The 
Redwood Bank debt can be prepaid at any time without a penalty.

    In the opinion of management, the pro forma consolidated condensed 
financial information provides for all material adjustments necessary to 
reflect the material effects of the acquisitions of the West Valley Executive 
Park and 930 Montgomery Street properties.

    The pro forma balance sheet is unaudited and is not necessarily 
indicative of the consolidated financial position that would have occurred if 
the transactions and adjustments reflected therein had been consummated on 
the date presented, or on any particular date in the future, nor does it 
purport to represent the financial position of the Company for future periods.

                   REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

TO PACIFIC GATEWAY PROPERTIES, INC.:

    We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Pacific 
Gateway Properties, Inc. (a New York corporation) and subsidiaries as of 
December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the related consolidated statements of income 
(loss), stockholders' equity (deficit) and cash flows for each of the three 
years in the period ended December 31, 1996.  These financial statements are 
the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to 
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

    We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing 
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to 
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free 
of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, 
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  
An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and 
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall 
financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a 
reasonable basis for our opinion.

    In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above 
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Pacific 
Gateway Properties, Inc. and subsidiaries as of  December 31, 1996 and 1995, 
and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the 
three years in the period ended December 31, 1996, in conformity with 
generally accepted accounting principles.

    Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic 
consolidated financial statements taken as a whole.  The schedules listed in 
the index of financial statements are presented for purposes of complying 
with the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and are not part of the 
basic consolidated financial statements.  These schedules have been subjected 
to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic consolidated 
financial statements and, in our opinion, fairly state in all material 
respects the financial data required to be set forth therein in relation to 
the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole.

                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS



To the Partners of Rincon Center Associates,
a California Limited Partnership:

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Rincon Center Associates 
(a California Limited Partnership) as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the 
related statements of operations, changes in partners' deficit and cash flows 
for each of the three years ended December 31, 1996.  These financial 
statements are the responsibility of the Partnership's management.  Our 
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based 
on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing 
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to 
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free 
of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, 
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  
An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and 
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall 
financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a 
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in 
all material respects, the financial position of Rincon Center Associates, a 
California Limited Partnership as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the 
results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years 
ended December 31, 1996, in conformity with generally accepted accounting 
principles.

                      A CALIFORNIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP

                       NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                             DECEMBER 31, 1996


(1)  PARTNERSHIP ORGANIZATION

     Rincon Center Associates, a California Limited Partnership (the 
     Partnership), was formed on September 18, 1984 to lease and develop land 
     and buildings located in the Rincon Point-South Beach Redevelopment 
     Project Area in the City and County of San Francisco, California.  The 
     Rincon Center Project (the Project) comprises commercial and retail 
     space, 320 rental housing units and associated off-street parking.  The 
     Project was developed in two distinct segments:  Rincon One and Rincon 
     Two.

     Profits and losses are shared by the partners in accordance with their 
     percentage interest as provided in the partnership agreement and as 
     shown in the statements of changes in partners' deficit.  Cash profits, 
     as determined by the managing general partner, are distributed to the 
     partners in the same percentage interest.

     Perini Land and Development Company (PL&D) is the managing general 
     partner of the Partnership and has the responsibility for general 
     management, administration and control of the Partnership's property, 
     business and affairs.  In addition, PL&D provides project and general 
     accounting services to the Partnership (Note 7).  Pacific Gateway 
     Properties, Inc. (PGP), formerly Perini Investment Properties, Inc., is 
     the other general partner.

(2)  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
     
     BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
     
     The accompanying financial statements have been prepared using the 
     accrual basis of accounting.

     USE OF ESTIMATES

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally 
     accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates 
     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.  The most significant estimates with regard 
     to these financial statements relate to the estimating of net realizable 
     value of real estate used in operations and the potential liability in 
     conjunction with certain contingencies and commitments.  Actual results 
     could differ from these estimates.


                                      45

(2)  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
     
     REAL ESTATE USED IN OPERATIONS
     
     Real estate used in operations includes all costs capitalized during the 
     development of the Project.  These costs include interest and financing 
     costs, ground rent expense during construction, property taxes, tenant 
     improvements and other capitalizable overhead costs.  This real estate 
     investment is stated at the lower of cost or market when there is a 
     permanent impairment in the carrying value of the investment.  
     Impairment in the carrying value of the properties is measured by 
     estimating the future cash flows expected to result from the properties 
     in the ordinary course of business and the conversion of the housing 
     units to condominiums and resulting sale and eventual sale of the 
     commercial and retail properties.

     EFFECT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARD

     The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued Statement of 
     Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, ACCOUNTING FOR THE IMPAIRMENT OF 
     LONG-LIVED ASSETS AND FOR LONG-LIVED ASSETS TO BE DISPOSED OF, which is 
     effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995.  This 
     standard requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for recoverability. 
     Impairment losses are recognized when future cash flows or other 
     benefits are less than the carrying amount of the asset.  The 
     Partnership has adopted the new standard for its year ending December 
     31, 1996, and it does not have a significant effect on financial 
     position or results of operations.

     DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION

     The Partnership uses the straight-line method of depreciation.  The 
     significant asset groups and their estimated useful lives are:

               Structural components of buildings      60 years 
               Nonstructural components of buildings   25 years
               All other depreciable asset             3-30 years

     Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over 
     the shorter of their useful lives or the lease terms.

     INCOME TAXES

     In accordance with federal and state income tax regulations, no income 
     taxes are levied on the Partnership; rather, such taxes are levied on 
     the individual partners.  Consequently, no provision or liability for 
     federal or state income taxes is reflected in the accompanying financial 
     statements.

(2)  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

     RENTAL INCOME
     
     Certain lease agreements provide for periods of free rent or stepped 
     increases in rent over the lease term.  In such cases, revenue is 
     recognized at a constant rate over the term of the lease.  Amounts 
     recognized as income but not yet due under the terms of the leases are 
     shown in the accompanying balance sheets as deferred rent receivable.

     STATEMENTS OF CASH FLOWS

     Cash paid for interest was $2,372,000, $2,541,000 and $2,191,000 in 
     1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively.

     ACCRUED LEASE LIABILITY

     The Partnership is leasing Rincon One from Chrysler McNally (Chrysler) 
     over a 25-year lease term (Note 3).  In connection with this lease, the 
     Partnership was granted a free rent concession for one year.  The intent 
     of Chrysler's free rent provision was to match a similar provision 
     granted by the Partnership to an anchor sublease tenant of Rincon One, 
     whose lease is for 10 years.  The Partnership expensed rent in the first 
     year of the lease and amortized the accrued lease liability related to 
     Rincon One over 10 years through 1993 and is amortizing the remaining 
     balance over 50 months effective January 1, 1994 to match the expense 
     with the revenue recorded on the sublease.

     Three amendments to the master lease agreement were made in 1993 in 
     connection with the extension of Chrysler's existing financing on the 
     property (Note 3). The rent schedule was revised, which resulted in 
     adjustments to the accrued lease liability in order to normalize the 
     rent expense over the remaining lease term.

     OTHER ASSETS

     Other assets include prepaid expenses, deferred lease commissions and 
     fixed assets.  Deferred lease commissions are amortized over the life of 
     the lease. Fixed assets are depreciated over the life of the asset, 
     which is generally five years.

(3)  OPERATING LEASE, RINCON ONE
     
     On June 24, 1988, the Partnership sold Rincon One to Chrysler and 
     subsequently leased the property back under a master lease with a basic 
     term of 25 years, with four five-year renewal options at the 
     Partnership's discretion.  The transaction was accounted for as a sale 
     and operating leaseback, and the gain on the sale of $1,540,000 was 
     deferred and is currently being amortized over a 25-year period, which 
     is recorded as a reduction to expenses--leases in the accompanying



                                      47

<PAGE>

(3)  OPERATING LEASE, RINCON ONE (Continued)

     statements of operations.
     
     In connection with the sale and operating leaseback of Rincon One, 
     Chrysler assumed and agreed to satisfy the Partnership's financing 
     obligations.  The Partnership, in accordance with the master lease and 
     several amendments in 1993, agreed to obtain a financial commitment on 
     behalf of Chrysler to replace at least $43,000,000 of Chrysler's 
     long-term financing by July 1, 1993.  To satisfy this commitment, the 
     Partnership successfully extended existing financing with Citicorp Real 
     Estate Inc. to July 1, 1998.  To complete the extension, the Partnership 
     had to advance funds sufficient to reduce the Chrysler financing from 
     $46,500,000 to $40,500,000.  At December 31, 1996, the Chrysler 
     financing obligation outstanding was approximately $36,200,000.  The 
     Partnership received a 10% secured note in the principal amount of 
     $6,000,000 from Chrysler upon the Partnership's advance of funds to 
     reduce the financing.  In addition, as part of the obligations of the 
     extension, the Partnership will have to further amortize the financing 
     from its current level to $33,000,000 by July 1, 1998.  If, by January 
     1, 1998, the Partnership has not received a further extension or new 
     commitment for financing on the property for at least $33,000,000, 
     Chrysler will have the right under the lease to require the Partnership 
     to purchase the property for a stipulated amount, approximately 
     $18,800,000 in excess of the then outstanding financing obligation, net 
     of the note receivable from Chrysler (see Note 4).  The Partnership 
     intends to obtain financing meeting the conditions of the lease prior to 
     January 1, 1998.

     Payments under the master lease agreement may be adjusted to reflect 
     adjustments in the rate of interest payable by Chrysler on the Rincon 
     One debt.  Future minimum lease payments based on scheduled payments 
     under the master lease agreement are as follows:

                     1997            $ 5,952,000
                     1998              5,634,000
                     1999              5,875,000
                     2000              5,875,000
                     2001              5,875,000
                     Thereafter       67,497,000

                                                    $14,635,000    $14,966,000

</TABLE>

(5)  GROUND LEASE

     The Partnership entered into a 65-year ground lease with the United
     States Postal Service for the Project property on April 19, 1985.  On
     June 24, 1988, this lease was bifurcated into two leases (Rincon One
     and Rincon Two).  Under the terms of the leases, the Partnership must
     make monthly lease payments (Basic Rent) of $140,415 and $239,085 for
     Rincon One and Rincon Two, respectively.  In April 1994, and every
     six years thereafter, the monthly base payments can be increased
     based on the increase in the Consumer Price Index, subject to a
     minimum of 5% per year and a maximum of 8% per year.  In addition,
     the Basic Rent can be increased based on reappraisal of the
     underlying property on the occurrence of certain events if those
     events occur prior to the regular reappraisal dates of April 19,
     2019, and each twelfth year thereafter for the remainder of the lease
     term.

     The lease agreement calls for the payment of certain percentage rents
     based on revenues received from the subleasing of the Rincon One
     building.  Percentage rents paid in 1996, 1995 and 1994 were
     $283,000, $262,000 and $275,000, respectively.
  
     This lease has been accounted for as an operating lease, with the
     following minimum future lease payments:

                           1997         $  4,645,000
                           1998            4,554,000
                           1999            4,554,000
                           2000            5,507,000
                           2001            5,920,000
                           Thereafter    882,392,000

                                       49
<PAGE>

(5) GROUND LEASE (CONTINUED)

    Under the provisions of the original lease, no lease payments were to
    be made from the inception of the lease (April 19, 1985) until April
    18, 1987, and one-half of the regular monthly payment was due for the
    period from April 19, 1987 to April 18, 1988.  However, as allowed by
    the lease agreement, the Partnership deferred the payment of Basic
    Rent until the initial occupancy date, February 8, 1988.  At December
    31, 1996 and 1995, the deferred Basic Rent and interest for the
    period April 19, 1987 to April 18, 1988, amounted to $169,000 and
    $290,000, respectively, and are being paid in 120 monthly
    installments together with interest at a rate based on the average 
    discount rate of 90-day U.S. Treasury bills, which was approximately 
    5.00% and 5.62% for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995,
    respectively.  The rate will be adjusted every 90 days as long as a  
    balance is due on the deferred rent.  The remaining deferred ground
    rent related to the free rent period amounted to $6,171,000 and
    $6,380,000 at December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively, and is being
    amortized over the lease term.

(6) CONSTRUCTION NOTES PAYABLE

    RESIDENTIAL
  
    The residential portion of the Project is being financed with a
    $36,000,000 loan from the Redevelopment Agency of the City and County
    of San Francisco (the Agency), of which $32,200,000 and $32,900,000
    was outstanding at December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.  The
    Agency raised these funds through the issuance of Variable Rate
    Demand Multifamily Housing Revenue Bonds (Rincon Center Project) 1985
    Issue B (the Bonds).
  
    The interest rate on the Bonds is variable at the rate required to
    produce a market value for the Bonds equal to their par value.  At
    December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, the effective interest rate on the
    bonds was 3.0%, 5.15% and 5.40%, respectively.  Interest payments are
    to be made on the first business day of each March, June, September
    and December.

    The Partnership has the option to convert the Bonds to a fixed
    interest rate at any of the above interest payment dates.  The fixed
    rate will be the rate required to produce a market value for the
    Bonds equal to their par value.  After conversion to a fixed rate,
    interest payments must be made on each June 1 and December 1.

    The Partnership must repay the residential loan as the Bonds become
    due.  The Bonds shall be redeemed in at least the minimum amounts set
    forth below:
  
                 1997           $   700,000
                 1998               900,000
                 1999             1,000,000
                 2000             1,000,000
                 2001             1,100,000

                                      50

<PAGE>

                 Thereafter      27,500,000

    The Bonds are due December 1, 2006.  The Bonds are secured by an
    irrevocable letter of credit issued by Citibank in the name of the
    Partnership in the amount of approximately $33,200,000.  In the event
    that drawings are made on the letter of credit, the Partnership has
    agreed to reimburse Citibank for such drawings pursuant to the terms
    of a Reimbursement Agreement.  The Partnership obligations under the
    Reimbursement Agreement are secured by a deed of trust on the Project
    and the equity letters of credit and guarantees described below.
     
    Commercial
     
    The development and construction of the commercial portion of the
    Project was financed pursuant to a Construction Loan Agreement
    between the Partnership and Citibank, of which $23,812,000 and
    $25,820,000 was outstanding at December 31, 1996 and 1995,
    respectively.   The loan and the irrevocable letters of credit
    supporting the residential bond are secured by a deed of trust on the
    Project and the equity letters of credit currently in the aggregate
    amount of $7,300,000, issued to Citibank by Bank of America,

    N.T. & S.A. on behalf of the general partners.  PL&D has also
    provided a $3,900,000 corporate guarantee to support the Project
    financing.  PGP and Perini Corporation, the parent company of PL&D,
    have agreed to reimburse Bank of America for any drawings under these
    letters of credit.  An annual fee equal to prime plus 1% of the
    aggregate amount is due to PGP and PL&D for the use of these letters
    of credit.  The loan is also secured by the guarantees described in
    Note 7.  The total fee in 1996, 1995 and 1994 was $742,000, $718,000
    and $184,000, respectively.  The fee in 1994 reflects a $421,000
    reduction in letter-of-credit fees charged to the general partners in
    prior years due to a reduction in the equity letters of credit at the
    Partnership.

    In 1993, the Partnership extended the loan to October 1, 1998, which
    required a $600,000 up-front paydown and an additional fee of
    $105,000.  The loan requires the Partnership to amortize $13,000,000
    over the five years to October 1, 1998.  Amounts are payable as
    follows: $3,150,000 in 1997 and $3,250,000 in 1998.  The Partnership
    obtained a swap agreement with interest rates stepping up from 5.61%
    to 7.96% over the loan term.  The effect of the swap agreement in
    1996 was to reduce interest expense by approximately $58,000.  At
    December 31, 1996, the rate on the loan was 7.54%.


(7) TRANSACTION WITH GENERAL PARTNERS

    PL&D has guaranteed the payment of both interest on the financing of
    the Project and operating deficits, if any.  It has also guaranteed
    the master lease under the sale and operating lease-back transaction
    (Note 3).

    In accordance with the Construction Loan Agreement (Note 6), the
    general partners have advanced monies to the Partnership to fund
    project costs.  At December 31, 1996 and 1995, the general 

                                      51

(7) TRANSACTION WITH GENERAL PARTNERS (CONTINUED)

    partners had advanced $98,172,000 and $93,218,000, respectively.  The
    advances accrue interest at a rate of prime plus 2%.  For the years
    ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, interest expense on partner
    advances was $9,897,000, $9,939,000 and $7,940,000, respectively.

    Through June 1995, PL&D retained Pacific Gateway Properties
    Management Corporation (PGPMC), a wholly owned subsidiary of PGP, to
    provide management and leasing services for the Project.  As
    compensation for managing the facilities, the Partnership paid PGPMC
    a base management fee of $319,200 per year or, if greater, the sum of
    3% of the first $13,000,000 of the annual gross receipts plus 2% of
    receipts in excess of the $13,000,000.  For 1995, fees paid to PGPMC
    amounted to approximately $453,000, including a termination fee of
    approximately $153,000.  The fees incurred for the years ended
    December 31, 1994 were $514,000 and were included in administrative
    and other expenses in the accompanying statements of operations. 
    PL&D has retained Eagle Western Management (EWM) to provide
    management and leasing services to the project to replace PGPMC. 
    Fees incurred for 1996 and 1995 amounted to approximately $377,000
    and $164,000, respectively.  Additionally, the Partnership reimburses
    PGPMC and EWM for certain payroll costs.

    Through December 31, 1996, PL&D retained PGP to continue to provide
    leasing and construction management services for the project.  During
    1996, approximately $22,000 was paid to PGP for leasing and
    construction management.

(8) REAL PROPERTY TAX REDUCTION

    The Partnership received reductions in real property tax assessments
    for the tax years from 1990 to 1993, which amounted to approximately
    $1,891,000, and were recorded as other income in the 1994 financial
    statements.  Professional service expenses related to the property
    tax assessments approximated $330,000 and were recorded in the
    accompanying statement of operations during 1994.
