                    (a Connecticut limited partnership)

                       Notes to Financial Statements
                                (Unaudited)


        Readers of this quarterly report should refer to CONNECTICUT
GENERAL REALTY INVESTORS III LIMITED PARTNERSHIP'S (the "Partnership")
audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1994 which are
included in the Partnership's 1994 Annual Report, as certain footnote
disclosures which would substantially duplicate those contained in such
audited financial statements have been omitted from this report.

1.      Basis of Accounting

a)      Basis of Presentation:  The accompanying financial statements were
        prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
        principles.  It is the opinion of management that the financial
        statements presented reflect all the adjustments necessary for a
        fair presentation of the financial condition and results of
        operations.  Certain amounts in the 1994 financial statements have
        been reclassified to conform to the 1995 presentation.

b)      Cash and Cash Equivalents:  Short term investments with a maturity
        of three months or less at the time of purchase are reported as
        cash equivalents.

c)      Escrow Deposits:  Escrow deposits consist of funds held to pay
        property taxes and insurance, as required by the first mortgage
        lender for Stewart's Glen, Versailles and Waterford, maintenance
        escrows, as required by the first mortgage lender for Waterford and
        Stonebridge Manor, and a utility deposit for Stonebridge Manor.  

2.      Notes and Mortgages Payable

        On March 31, 1995, the Partnership refinanced the Stonebridge Manor
Apartment's first mortgage note which was scheduled to mature on April 1,
1995.  The new mortgage note is in the amount of $5,300,000 with a term of
three years and monthly payments at 10.15% interest and twenty year
amortization.  Prepayment is closed for the first year, open at 1% during
the second year and open without penalty during the third year.

        During 1994, the Partnership refinanced the debt for Stewart's Glen
III with the existing lender.  The maturity date has been extended from
February 1995 to April 1996 and the interest rate was lowered to 8.55%. 
The Partnership will likely sell the property in early 1996 at debt
maturity.


3.      Deferred Charges

Deferred charges consist of the following:

                                                  September 30,  December 31,

        CONNECTICUT GENERAL REALTY INVESTORS III LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
                    (a Connecticut limited partnership)

             Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
                    Condition and Results of Operations 


Liquidity and Capital Resources

        At September 30, 1995, the Partnership had $2,308,358 in cash and
cash equivalents which will be used to fund working capital requirements
and the Partnership's reserves.  The portfolio generated positive adjusted
cash from operations after debt service, capital improvements and
partnership expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30,
1995.

        Each of the apartment properties has produced positive results in
the third quarter of 1995 for the Partnership.  Cash generated from
property operations after Partnership expenses will supplement reserves. 
Distributions to partners will not resume until the Partnership retires the
$3,400,000 recourse note obligation.  For the third quarter of 1995,
adjusted cash from operations approximated $192,000 after capital
improvements and partnership level expenses.  Net of the Stonebridge 1995
refinance costs, approximately $475,000 of cash from operations had been
added to Partnership cash reserves for the nine months ended September 30,
1995.

        The first mortgage note for Stonebridge matured April 1, 1995.  The
Partnership completed a refinance with Hibernia National Bank on March 31,
1995.  The new loan is in the principal amount of $5,300,000 with a term of
three years and monthly payments at 10.15% interest with twenty year
amortization.  Prepayment is closed for the first year, open at 1% during
the second year and open without penalty during the third year.  The new
loan approximated the principal balance of the loan in which it replaced. 
Origination fees and closing costs totalled approximately $105,000.  The
refinance positions the property for a sale in late 1997 or early 1998
prior to debt maturity.

        During the fourth quarter, the Partnership expects to receive
$28,500 from an escrow account set up as part of the Waterford debt
refinance in December of 1993.  As part of the requirements of the bond
related financing, funds were set aside for minor repairs to the property
totaling $28,500.  During 1995, the repairs were completed and a request
for release of the funds is now pending.  

        During 1994, the Partnership refinanced the debt for Stewart's Glen
III with the existing lender.  The maturity date was extended from February
1995 to April 1996.  The Partnership's current strategy assumes a sale in
early 1996 at debt maturity.  During the third quarter a sales broker was
selected and a sales price was formulated.  During the fourth quarter
finalization of an asking price and execution of the brokerage agreement
will begin the marketing process.  The cash residual from the sale, after
payment of the property's first mortgage, will be added to Partnership
reserves for payment of the Partnership's recourse promissory note upon its
maturity.  The net proceeds from the property sale added to the
Partnership's 1995 cash flow from operations and the Partnership's cash
reserves should be sufficient to retire the $3,400,000 promissory note upon
maturity.


Results of Operations

        Generally, decreases in the income statement accounts are the
result of the Promenades Plaza sale on September 22, 1994.  For the nine
months ended September 30, 1994, Promenades Plaza accounted for
approximately $804,000 of rental income, $117,000 of other income, $303,000
of property operating expenses, $112,000 of general and administrative
expenses, $538,000 of interest expense and $250,000 of depreciation and
amortization.  For the three  months ended September 30, 1994, Promenades
Plaza accounted for approximately $234,000 of rental income, $45,000 of
other income, $119,000 of property operating expenses, $50,000 of general
and administrative expenses, $279,000 of interest expense and $62,000 of
depreciation and amortization.  The following analytical comments have been
limited to the Partnership's four remaining properties.

        Rental income increased approximately $53,000 and $133,000 for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 1995, respectively, as compared
with the same periods of 1994.  Stonebridge Manor rental income increased
approximately $23,000 and $70,000 and Versailles Village rental income
increased approximately $5,000 and $31,000 for the three and nine months,
respectively, as a result of rental rate increases.  Stewarts Glen's rental
rate increases offset a nominal decline in average occupancy producing a
net increase in rental income of approximately $9,000 and $13,000 for the
three and nine months, respectively.  At Waterford Apartments, an increase
in third quarter average occupancy led to an increase in rental income of
approximately $16,000 and $19,000 for the three and nine months,
respectively.

        The increase in other income for the nine months ended September
30, 1995, as compared with the same periods of 1994, resulted from
collecting approximately $40,000 of additional 1994 expense recapture and
percentage rent from tenants at Promenades after the property sale.

        The increase in interest income for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 1995, as compared with the same periods of 1994, was the
result of an increase in interest rates on short term investments combined
with higher average cash balances.  In addition, Waterford earned
additional interest on the trust accounts associated with its bond related
financing.

        Overall, property operating expenses increased for the three and
nine months ended September 30, 1995, as compared with the same periods of
1994, due to a greater number of carpet replacements at Stewart's Glen and
a rise in insurance costs at each of the properties.  In addition,
Waterford incurred nonroutine maintenance expenditures for extensive
landscaping work.  Stonebridge incurred costs for dryer vent replacements
and fireplace cleaning offset by fewer carpet replacements and utility
reimbursements from corporate tenants.  Expenses decreased at Versailles
from a nonrecurring real estate tax consulting fee in 1994 and a drop in
utility usage in 1995 due to the milder winter and a repair of a water
leak.

        The increase in general and administrative expense for the three
and nine months ended September 30, 1995, as compared with the same periods
of 1994, was the result of increased payroll related costs at Waterford,
Stonebridge and Stewart's Glen.  In addition, advertising costs were
increased at Waterford in an effort to increase occupancy.

        The decrease in interest expense for the three and nine months
ended September 30, 1995, as compared with 1994, was the result of the
November 1, 1994 Stewart's Glen refinance which decreased the interest rate
from 9.94% to 8.55%.  In addition, the March 30, 1994 Versailles Village
first mortgage refinance lowered the interest rate from 10% to 8%.

        The increase in depreciation and amortization for the three and
nine months ended September 30, 1995, as compared with the same periods of
1994, was the result of a change in the amortization period for financing
costs of Waterford's bond financing.  In addition, amortization expense
increased from amortizing financing costs of the April 1, 1995 Stonebridge
Manor first mortgage refinance.
