                    NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                     SEPTEMBER 30, 1995 AND 1994

                             (UNAUDITED)


     Readers of this quarterly report should refer to the Partnership's
audited financial statements for the fiscal 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

     The equity method of accounting has been applied in the accompanying
financial statements with respect to the Partnership's interest in 245 Park
Avenue Company (the "joint venture" or "245 Park").  Accordingly, the
financial statements do not include the accounts of 245 Park.

     The Partnership's records are maintained on the accrual basis of
accounting as adjusted for Federal income tax reporting purposes.  The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared from such records
after making appropriate adjustments to reflect the Partnership's accounts
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP").  Such
adjustments are not recorded on the records of the Partnership.  The net
effect of these items is summarized as follows for the nine months ended
September 30:

                        1995                      1994

               ==========   ==========    =========   ========== 

     The net loss per limited partnership interest is based upon the number
of limited partnership interests outstanding at the end of the period
(1,000).  Deficit capital accounts will result, through the duration of the
Partnership, in net gain for financial reporting and Federal income tax
purposes.

     Partnership distributions from the unconsolidated joint venture are
considered cash flow from operating activities only to the extent of the
Partnership's cumulative share of net earnings.

     Certain amounts in the 1994 financial statements have been
reclassified to conform with the 1995 presentation.


(2)  INVESTMENT IN UNCONSOLIDATED VENTURE - 245 PARK

     The Partnership acquired an interest in 245 Park, which owns an
existing 46-story office building located at 245 Park Avenue, New York, New
York.  The Partnership acquired its approximate 48.25% ownership interest
in 245 Park for approximately $63,927,000 from an affiliate of the joint
venture partners.  In addition to the Partnership, the other partners (the
"O&Y partners") of 245 Park include Olympia & York 245 Park Avenue Holding

                JMB/245 PARK AVENUE ASSOCIATES, LTD.
                       (A LIMITED PARTNERSHIP)

              NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED


Company, L.P., O&Y Equity Company, L.P., and O&Y 245 Corp., all of which
are affiliates of Olympia & York Developments, Limited ("O&Y").  There are
certain risks and uncertainties associated with the Partnership's
investment made through the joint venture, including the possibility that
the O&Y partners might become unable or unwilling to fulfill their
financial or other obligations, or that the O&Y partners may have economic
or business interests or goals that are inconsistent with those of the
Partnership.

     The O&Y partners granted security interests in their interests in 245
Park to a syndicate of banks in order to secure certain loan obligations of
certain O&Y affiliates.  In August, 1992, the Partnership received notice
from the lead bank of the syndicate alleging that such O&Y affiliates were
in default under these loan obligations and directing that all payments and
distributions due to the O&Y partners from 245 Park be delivered to the
lead bank.  According to published reports, an investor group purchased
participations in these obligations from the original syndicate of banks. 
In September 1995, the holder of the loan obligations issued a notice of
sale of, among other things, the interests of the O&Y partners in 245 Park
in an effort to realize upon the collateral for the loan obligations.  In
October 1995, each of the O&Y partners, as well as other O&Y affiliates,
filed for protection from creditors under Chapter 11 of the United States
Bankruptcy Code.  As a result of these bankruptcy filings, the attempted
sale of the O&Y partners' interests in 245 Park was stayed.

     The O&Y partners and certain other O&Y affiliates are preparing a plan
to restructure their ownership interests in various office buildings,
including the 245 Park Avenue office building, which could take the form of
one or more real estate investment trusts.  Any such restructuring would be
subject to the approval of the various creditors of the O&Y partners and
other O&Y affiliates as well as the bankruptcy court, and would likely
result in such creditors collectively obtaining control of such ownership
interests.  Although the Partnership has had discussions with the O&Y
partners and certain of the creditors concerning possible restructuring
proposals, because of the preliminary status and the complexity of the
proposals, as well as the current divergence in the interests of certain of
the creditors, the Partnership does not know at this time how a
restructuring, if effected, would affect 245 Park and/or the O&Y partners'
and the Partnership's respective interests therein.

     Pursuant to the 245 Park venture agreement, the Partnership has made
capital contributions aggregating $18,100,000.  To the extent such
contributions were not sufficient to fund operating deficits, debt service,
reserve requirements and certain capital expenditures, the O&Y partners
were obligated and did contribute the amount of such deficiencies through
May 1989.  Commencing in June 1989 through the earlier of December 1993 or
the date on which the annual net cash flow (as defined) of the joint
venture is at least $16,500,000, the O&Y partners were obligated to loan
certain amounts (in the maximum amount of $72,500,000 at a prime rate of
interest, 8.75% at September 30, 1995) to 245 Park sufficient to cover
operating deficits, reserve requirements and certain capital expenditures
of the joint venture and to pay the Partnership and the O&Y partners their
"minimum return" (as defined).  The O&Y partners have loaned 245 Park
amounts aggregating $80,213,000 (net of repayments) on a cumulative basis
as of September 30, 1995, which amount includes $2,636,000 (net of
repayments) loaned for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 for
interest accruing on these advances.  The loans from the O&Y partners
currently exceed the maximum amount required under the terms of the joint
venture agreement.  Under the terms of the joint venture agreement, the
Partnership is obligated to contribute to 245 Park its share (approximately
48.25%) of any operating expenses, reserve requirements and capital
expenditures, including interest on the O&Y partners' loans, to the extent

                JMB/245 PARK AVENUE ASSOCIATES, LTD.
                       (A LIMITED PARTNERSHIP)

              NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED


not covered by cash flow from the property or any additional loans from the
O&Y partners.  The principal and any unpaid interest on the O&Y partner
loans will be due and payable on June 1, 2004, subject to earlier repayment
out of available net cash flow or the net proceeds of a refinancing, sale
or other disposition of the property as described below.

     Pursuant to the joint venture agreement, the first $16,500,000 of
annual net cash flow (after payment of the current year's interest on the
O&Y partners' loans and the current return on their priority distributions)
is distributable approximately 48.25% to the Partnership and 51.75% to the
O&Y partners (defined as "ownership ratios").  Additional annual net cash
flow (as defined) will be utilized to pay outstanding loans and accrued and
deferred interest to the O&Y partners.  Any remaining annual net cash flow
is distributable approximately 48.25% to the Partnership and 51.75% to the
O&Y partners.  Operating profits and losses generally are allocated
approximately 48.25% to the Partnership and 51.75% to the O&Y partners.

     Net sale or refinancing proceeds (after repayment of any loans and the
priority distributions and accrued interest to the O&Y partners as
described below) are generally allocable or distributable, as the case may
be, to the Partnership and the O&Y partners in their respective ownership
ratios.  In general, profits from the sale or other disposition of the
office property will be allocated first to the venture partners with any
negative balances in their capital accounts up to the amount of such
negative balances and then in accordance with the respective ownership
ratios of the venture partners.  Losses from the sale or other disposition
of the office property will generally be allocated first to the venture
partners with any positive balances in their capital accounts up to the
amount of such positive balances and then in accordance with the respective
ownership ratios of the venture partners.  Losses attributable to the New
York State Gains Tax payable as a result of sale or other transfer of the
office property are allocable among the venture partners in the same
proportion as their contributions for payment of the tax.  In general, the
Partnership will only contribute for the payment of such tax with respect
to proceeds from the sale or other transfer of the office property in
excess of $500,000,000 plus the value of certain improvements.

     The office building is being managed by an affiliate of the O&Y
partners for a management fee equal to 1% of gross receipts.  In addition,
certain repairs and maintenance and tenant improvement work is performed by
an affiliate of the O&Y partners.

     On September 7, 1989, 245 Park refinanced the $20,000,000 second
mortgage note.  The remaining first mortgage note continues in place.  The
third mortgage note was also refinanced by a financial institution in the
same principal amount as the original note ($147,500,000).  Also on
September 7, 1989, 245 Park obtained an additional loan in the maximum
principal amount of $29,000,000. $17,000,000 of this loan was advanced at
closing with an additional $4,000,000 advanced in June 1990 and June 1991
for a total of $25,000,000 principal outstanding as of September 30, 1995. 
The final potential $4,000,000 funding under the fourth mortgage loan due
from the financial institution on June 30, 1992 was not received.  The
lender refused to provide the final funding under the fourth mortgage loan
due to a failure by the O&Y partners to satisfy certain reporting
requirements of 245 Park under the second, third and fourth mortgage loan
agreements, which constitutes a non-monetary default under such agreements.

The proceeds of this loan have been used to pay down a loan from an
affiliate of the O&Y partners and to reimburse the affiliate for annual
advances made to 245 Park for the Partnership's share of the economic
benefits of the Bear Stearns lease as further discussed below.  In the
fourth quarter of 1994, 245 Park began recording the accrual of interest on
these junior mortgage loans at default rates (ranging from 11.8% to 14% per
annum) due to the maturity of these junior mortgage loans.

                       (A LIMITED PARTNERSHIP)

              NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED


     The Partnership was previously notified that the junior mortgage
loans, secured by the investment property as described below, were in
default due to non-compliance with certain lender financial reporting
requirements, and the loans subsequently matured in October 1994 without
repayment.  However, 245 Park has continued to make and the lender has
continued to accept monthly payments of interest in the same amounts that
were payable prior to October 1994.  As of the date of this report, the
holder of the junior mortgage loans has not, to the knowledge of the
Partnership, attempted to exercise its remedies against the joint venture's
property.

     In March 1987, 245 Park and 245 Lease Co. entered into a lease with a
new tenant, Bear Stearns Companies, Inc., for the 538,000 square feet of
space in the building which had been vacated in 1986.  The new lease
commenced in May 1987 and has an initial term extending until December
2002, with five renewal options for up to a total of 25 additional years. 
Annual base rent, which commenced in January 1988 concurrent with tenant
occupancy, is payable at the rates of $35 per square foot through 1992, $51
per square foot through 1997 and $56 per square foot through 2002.  Annual
base rent payable for each of the option periods will be the greater of the
then existing annual base rent or 85% of the market rate then in effect. 
During the entire lease term, the tenant is also obligated to pay certain
electricity charges and its proportionate share of increases in the
operating costs of the building (including real estate taxes) over those
generally incurred in 1987.

     In connection with the execution of this lease, the Partnership and
the O&Y partners agreed upon the division of the economic benefits and
costs of this lease among the Partnership and the O&Y partners.  The
Partnership was entitled to participate in the economic benefits of this
lease by receiving distributions from 245 Park of $4,000,000 per year
through June 30, 1992 as its share of the remaining incremental net rents
from the lease after payment of the interest expense referred to below. 
Subsequent to June 1992, cash flow from net rents and related income under
the lease are allocable to the Partnership and the O&Y partners in
accordance with the terms of the existing joint venture agreement.

     The Partnership participates in a portion of the costs of this lease
as the costs have been financed by 245 Park.  Such costs include costs
associated with re-leasing the tenant space (including tenant improvement
costs) and expenses related to termination of the prior tenant's lease and
the new tenant's vacating its space in another building.  A portion of
these costs have been financed by the O&Y partners through their deferral
of their prorata distributions from 245 Park through June 30, 1992, for
which they are entitled to a priority distribution estimated to be
approximately $31,500,000 (including accrued interest, at 9% per annum
through September 1995, on the deferred amounts) from net annual cash flow
or sale or refinancing proceeds, as described above.  In addition, as of
September 30, 1995, approximately $9,690,000 of these costs had been
financed by a non-recourse loan from an affiliate of the O&Y partners at an
interest rate not to exceed 9% per annum and $25,000,000 of the costs had
been financed by a third party lender at an interest rate of 9% per annum
pursuant to the fourth mortgage loan described above.  Through September
1995, interest on amounts deferred by the O&Y partners and on the non-
recourse loan from their affiliate has accrued and has been added to
principal.  Payments on the fourth mortgage loan were interest only until
maturity in October 1994 when the entire principal balance was due and
payable.  However, the lender has refrained from taking any actions or
exercising any of its remedies as a result of the loan maturing in October
1994.  Payments on the loan from an affiliate of the O&Y partners are
interest only (unless accrued as described above) until the earlier of a
sale or refinancing of the property, if proceeds are available for
repayment of the loan, or December 31, 2002, at which time the outstanding

balance, including any accrued interest added to principal, becomes
payable.

     The holder of the first mortgage loan secured by 245 Park's property
agreed to extend the originally scheduled maturity date of the loan from
October 1, 1993 until January 1, 1994.  245 Park entered into an agreement
with the lender to further modify and extend the loan for the amount of the
current outstanding principal balance plus accrued and unpaid interest at a
default rate of 18% per annum from October 1, 1993 through the loan closing
date, with a new interest rate from the loan closing date for a five year
term.  This agreement provided that the new interest rate would be based on
the mortgage equivalent of U.S. Treasury securities maturing on or about
five years from the date of closing plus 3% per annum.  Monthly payments of
principal and interest were to be required during the loan extension period
based upon a 30-year amortization schedule.  Under the terms of the
agreement, 245 Park also was to make certain lump sum and monthly deposits
of specified amounts in escrow for real estate taxes and leasing and other
capital and operating costs.  245 Park paid $8 million to the lender to be
applied to accrued interest on the loan and has paid approximately $17.1
million into the real estate tax escrow ($9.4 million scheduled payment
made in July 1995).  In addition, 245 Park was to pay the lender an
extension fee of $2 million upon closing of the transaction.  Subject to
certain conditions, the lender had agreed to waive payment of a portion of
the interest that accrues on the loan at the default rate prior to closing
the transaction.  Completion of the modification and extension of the first
mortgage loan in accordance with the agreement was subject to the
satisfaction of various conditions, certain of which were not satisfied,
and the agreement has expired by its terms.  However, 245 Park and the
lender continue to discuss a modification and extension of the first
mortgage loan generally on terms similar to those discussed above.  The
financial difficulties of the O&Y partners and their affiliates, the need
to restructure their ownership interests in various properties and the
pledge by the O&Y partners of their interests in 245 Park have delayed and
may continue to delay obtaining modification and extension of 245 Park's
mortgage loans.

     245 Park has continued to make, and the first mortgage lender has
continued to accept, monthly payments of principal and interest in the same
amount that were payable prior to October 1, 1993, and the lender has
refrained from taking any actions or exercising any of its remedies as a
result of the loan maturing on January 1, 1994.  If 245 Park is successful
in obtaining the modification and an extension of the first mortgage loan,
it also expects to seek a similar extension of the October, 1994 maturity
dates of the junior mortgage loans.  If 245 Park is able to obtain
modifications and extensions of each mortgage loan, it is expected that the
interest rates applicable to the loans during the extension period would be
no greater than that in effect for the modified first mortgage loan.  There
can be no assurance that 245 Park will be able to reach a final agreement
for any such modifications and extensions of any of its mortgage
indebtedness.  Although the property has significant reserves at September
30, 1995, due to property cash needs and venture partner priority claims,
it is not expected that any of these reserves would be distributable to the
Partnership.

     If 245 Park's efforts to extend any of its existing mortgage loans,
with an aggregate principal balance of approximately $384,874,000 at
September 30, 1995, are unsuccessful, there is the possibility that 245
Park would no longer be able to maintain an ownership interest in the
property, as the mortgage lenders may seek to acquire title to the
property.  This would result in the recognition of a substantial net gain
to the Limited Partners for Federal income tax purposes, without any
corresponding cash distribution.  In such event, the Partnership would then
proceed to terminate its affairs.

     (b)  Debt Refinancing

     The Partnership and its lenders reached a modification and extension
agreement regarding the former $50,000,000 term loans that matured in
October 1993.  The current term loans (note 3(a)) are secured by the
Partnership's interest in 245 Park, and $25,000,000 ($16,042,000 at
September 30, 1995) of the term loans requires interest to be paid
currently. The terms of the modification and extension generally provide
for (i) an extension period through December 1998; (ii) one-half of the
original principal amount of the term loans requires interest to be paid
currently at a rate related to the London Interbank Offer Rate (LIBOR)

                JMB/245 PARK AVENUE ASSOCIATES, LTD.
                       (A LIMITED PARTNERSHIP)

              NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED

while interest on the balance of the term loans accrues at an annual rate
of 2%; (iii) one-half of the original principal amount of the term loans
bearing interest at a rate related to LIBOR (the "LIBOR Note") was subject
to periodic amortization; and (iv) the past due lump sum interest swap
payment in the amount of $2,194,631 has been converted to a note payable
due December 1998 with interest accruing at an annual rate of 2%.  In
December 1993, approximately $5,647,000 was paid to the lenders under the
term loans (all of which was advanced on behalf of the Partnership by JMB)
which included a $5,000,000 principal paydown of the LIBOR Note and the
interest payable currently for the period September through December 1993. 
Any payments of principal and interest made by JMB under its guaranty of
the portion of the Partnership's term loans were treated as advances to the
Partnership.  Interest accrues on these advances at the annual rate of
prime plus 1% (9.75% at September 30, 1995).  As of September 30, 1995, JMB
has advanced approximately $11,969,000 evidenced by a demand note, which
includes the principal and interest payments made through July, 1995 (the
date of JMB's purchase of the term loans).  The demand note payable to JMB,
which allows a maximum principal sum of a specified amount, had been
subordinated to payment of the LIBOR Note, but is no longer subordinated
and is secured by the Partnership's interest in 245 Park.

     In July 1995, JMB purchased from the lenders the term loans and their
security interests in the related collateral, which included the
Partnership's interest in 245 Park Co. and the JMB guarantee, which has
been terminated.  JMB will continue to hold the notes for these loans
generally under the same terms and conditions as were in effect prior to
the purchase.  However, no scheduled principal payments are required prior
to maturity on the LIBOR Note.  Interest on the LIBOR Note accrues and is
payable monthly at a floating rate which, at the option of the Partnership,
is related to either LIBOR or the prime rate of Bank of America Illinois. 
These loans and the demand note payable to JMB are secured by the
Partnership's interest in the joint venture and are subject to mandatory
prepayment of principal and interest out of any distributions received by
the Partnership from 245 Park.

(4)  TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

     The General Partners or their affiliates may be reimbursed for their
direct expenses and out-of-pocket expenses relating to the administration
of the Partnership and operation of the Partnership's real property
investment.  Additionally, the General Partners and their affiliates are
also entitled to reimbursements for legal, accounting and certain other
services.

     Fees and reimbursable expenses paid or payable by the Partnership to

              NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONCLUDED


     All above reimbursable amounts currently payable to the General
Partners and their affiliates do not bear interest.

     The Corporate General Partner of the Partnership has determined to use
independent third parties to perform certain of these administrative
services beginning in the fourth quarter of 1995.  Use of such third
parties, rather than reimbursement to the Corporate General Partners and
their affiliates, is not expected to have a material effect on the
operations of the Partnership.

(6)  ADJUSTMENTS

   In the opinion of the Corporate General Partner, all adjustments
(consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair
presentation (assuming the Partnership continues as a going concern, see
note 2) have been made to the accompanying figures as of September 30, 1995
and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994.

PART I.  FINANCIAL INFORMATION

     ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     All references to "Notes" are to Notes to Financial Statements
contained in this report.  Certain parties given abbreviated names or
references below are identified in the Notes.

     The mortgage loans secured by the 245 Park Avenue building have
matured without repayment.  Although 245 Park entered into an agreement
with the first mortgage lender to modify and extend the first mortgage
loan, the agreement is subject to certain conditions and there can be no
assurance that 245 Park will be able to reach a final agreement to modify
and extend this loan or the other mortgage loans.  If 245 Park's efforts to
extend any of its mortgage loans are unsuccessful, 245 Park may not be able
to maintain an ownership interest in the property, as the mortgage lenders
may seek to acquire title to the property.  In such event, the Partnership
would proceed to terminate its affairs.  Accordingly, there exists
substantial doubt as to the Partnership's ability to continue as a going
concern.

     At September 30, 1995, the Partnership had no cash or cash
equivalents.  Therefore, subsequent to September 30, JMB advanced $20,000
to the Partnership, as evidenced by its demand note, to fund Partnership
operations.

     Commencing in June 1989 through the earlier of December 1993 or the
date on which the annual net cash flow (as defined) of 245 Park is at least
$16,500,000, the O&Y partners were obligated to loan certain amounts (in
the maximum amount of $72,500,000 at a prime rate of interest) to 245 Park
sufficient to cover operating deficits, reserve requirements and certain
capital expenditures of 245 Park and to pay the Partnership and the O&Y
partners their "minimum return" (as defined).  The O&Y partners have loaned
245 Park amounts aggregating $80,213,000 (net of repayments) as of
September 30, 1995, which amount includes $2,636,000 (net of repayments)
loaned for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 for interest accruing
on the advances.  Under the terms of the joint venture agreement, the
Partnership is obligated to contribute to 245 Park  its share
(approximately 48.25%) of any operating expenses, reserve requirements and
capital expenditures, including interest on the O&Y partners' loans, to the
extent not covered by cash flow from the property or additional loans from
the O&Y partners.  The principal and any unpaid interest on the O&Y partner
loans will be due and payable on June 1, 2004, subject to earlier repayment
out of available net cash flow or the net proceeds of a refinancing, sale
or other disposition of the property as described in Note 2.

     Since the Partnership has not been receiving operating cash flow
distributions from the property, the Partnership initially utilized its
cash reserves to make the payments on the Partnership's bank obligations. 
Effective with the first quarter of 1990, the Partnership elected to
suspend cash distributions to the Partners and retain funds for the cash
requirements and capital expenditures for the property (if not funded by
O&Y partners' loans).  These reserves have been exhausted, and
consequently, the Partnership was not able to pay the interest payment due
on the bank obligations for September 1993 in the approximate amount of
$223,000.  In addition, the Partnership did not have adequate reserves to
pay a lump sum interest swap payment due February 1, 1994 in the amount of
$2,194,631.  In this regard, the Partnership and its bank lender reached a
modification and extension agreement for the $50,000,000 term loans that
matured in October 1993.  These term loans are secured by the Partnership's
interest in 245 Park, and $25,000,000 ($16,042,000 at September 30, 1995)
of the term loans was guaranteed by JMB.  The terms of the modification and
extension generally provide for (i) an extension period through December
1998; (ii) one-half of the original principal amount of the term loans
requires interest to be paid currently at a rate related to the London
Interbank Offer Rate (LIBOR) while interest on the balance of the term
loans accrues at an annual rate of 2%;  (iii) one-half of the original
principal amount of the term loans bearing interest at a rate related to
LIBOR (the "LIBOR Note") was subject to periodic amortization through
payment of quarterly installments of principal and interest (principal in
the amount of $2,500,000 in 1994 and $2,707,000 in 1995); and (iv) the past
due lump sum interest swap payment in the amount of $2,194,631 has been
converted to a note payable due December 1998 with interest accruing at an
annual rate of 2%.  In December 1993, approximately $5,647,000 was paid to
the lenders under the term loans (all of which was advanced on behalf of
the Partnership by JMB), which included a $5,000,000 principal paydown of
the LIBOR Note and the interest payable currently for the period September
through December 1993.  During the year ended December 31, 1994, an
additional amount of approximately $2,479,000 was paid to the lenders under
the term loans which included a $1,251,000 principal paydown of the LIBOR
Note and the interest payable currently for the period January through
December 1994.  An additional payment of $1,249,000 and two payments of
$729,000 each were paid in January through June, 1995, respectively.  Any
payments of principal and interest made by JMB under its guaranty of the
portion of the Partnership's term loans have been treated as advances to
the Partnership.  As of September 30, 1995, JMB has advanced approximately
$11,969,000 evidenced by a demand note, which includes the principal and
interest payments made related to the loan modification discussed above and
advances to pay operating costs of the Partnership.  Interest accrues on
these advances at the annual rate of prime (8.75% at September 30, 1995)
plus 1%.  The demand note payable to JMB allows a maximum principal sum of
a specified amount.  Reference is made to Note 3(b).

     245 Park continues to seek an extension and modification of the
mortgage loans secured by the property in the aggregate principal amount of
approximately $384,874,000 at September 30, 1995.  The holder of the first
mortgage loan secured by 245 Park's property, which has a current
outstanding principal balance of approximately $192,374,000 at September
30, 1995, agreed to extend the originally scheduled maturity date of the
loan from October 1, 1993 until January 1, 1994.  245 Park entered into an
agreement with the lender to further modify and extend the loan for the
amount of the current outstanding principal balance plus accrued and unpaid
interest at a default rate of 18% per annum from October 1, 1993 through
the loan closing date, with a new interest rate from the loan closing date
for a five year term.  This agreement provided that the new interest rate
would be based on the mortgage equivalent of U.S. Treasury securities
maturing on or about five years from the date of closing plus 3% per annum.

Monthly payments of principal and interest were to be required during the
loan extension period based upon a 30-year amortization schedule.  Under
the terms of the agreement, 245 Park also was to make certain lump sum and
monthly deposits of specified amounts in escrow for real estate taxes and
leasing and other capital and operating costs.  245 Park paid $8 million to
the lender to be applied to accrued interest on the loan and has paid
approximately $17.1 million into the real estate tax escrow ($9.4 million
scheduled payment made in July 1995).  In addition, 245 Park was to pay the
lender an extension fee of $2 million upon closing of the transaction. 
Subject to certain conditions, the lender had agreed to waive payment of a
portion of the interest that accrues on the loan at the default rate prior
to closing the transaction.  Completion of the modification and extension
of the first mortgage loan in accordance with the agreement was subject to
the satisfaction of various conditions, certain of which were not
satisfied, and the agreement has expired by its terms.  However, 245 Park
and the lender continue to discuss a modification and extension of the
first mortgage loan generally on terms similar to those discussed above. 
The financial difficulties of the O&Y partners and their affiliates, the
need to restructure their ownership interests in various properties and the
pledge by the O&Y partners of their interests in 245 Park have delayed and
may continue to delay obtaining modification and extension of 245 Park's
mortgage loans.

     245 Park has continued to make, and the first mortgage lender has
continued to accept, monthly payments of principal and interest in the same
amount that were payable prior to October 1, 1993 and the lender has
refrained from taking any actions or exercising any of its remedies as a
result of the loan maturing on January 1, 1994.

     If 245 Park is successful in obtaining an extension of the first
mortgage loan modification, it also expects to seek a similar extension of
the maturity dates of the junior mortgage loans, which have a current
aggregate principal balance of $192,500,000 and matured on October 1, 1994.

As of the date of this Report, the holder of the junior mortgage loans has
not, to the knowledge of the Partnership, attempted to exercise its
remedies against 245 Park's property.  Interest is currently accruing at
default rates ranging from 11.88% to 18% per annum.  245 Park has continued
to make and the holder of the junior loans has continued to accept monthly
payments of interest in the same amount that were payable prior to October
1994, the maturity date for the junior mortgage loans.  If 245 Park is able
to obtain modifications and extensions of each mortgage loan, it is
expected that the interest rates applicable to the loans during the
extension period would be no greater than that in effect for the modified
first mortgage loan.  However, there can be no assurance that 245 Park will
be able to reach a final agreement for any such modifications and
extensions of any of its mortgage indebtedness.

     If 245 Park's efforts to extend its mortgage loans are unsuccessful,
245 Park may not be able to maintain ownership of the property as the
lenders may seek to acquire title to the  property.  This would result in
the recognition of substantial net gain to the Limited Partners for
financial reporting and Federal income tax purposes without any
corresponding cash distribution.  In such event, the Partnership would then
proceed to terminate its affairs.

     Even if 245 Park is successful in obtaining extensions and
modifications of its mortgage loans, due to the competitive market
conditions affecting the 245 Park Avenue building, it currently appears
that the Partnership's goal of capital appreciation will not be achieved. 
If the 245 Park Avenue building is sold and a distribution of net proceeds
is made to the Partnership after repayment of the mortgage loans and
amounts owed to the O&Y partners and their affiliates, the term loans and
the demand note payable to JMB plus all related accrued interest must be
satisfied before remaining proceeds, if any, would be distributed to the
Limited Partners.  Without a dramatic improvement in market conditions, the
Limited Partners will not receive a substantial portion of their original
investment.

     Assuming, among other things, an extension of the existing mortgage
loans, the investment property is expected to have nominal cash flow during
1995 after mortgage debt service and estimated releasing and capital
improvement costs.  The Partnership's short-term liquidity is dependent
upon additional advances from JMB under the demand note discussed above. 
The ultimate source of the Partnership's liquidity is dependent upon a
refinancing and/or eventual sale of the Partnership's investment property. 
Although 245 Park has significant reserves ($44 million which includes $7.7
million in real estate tax escrows at September 30, 1995), due to property
cash needs and the O & Y partners' claims, it is not expected that any such
reserves would be distributable to the Partnership.

     The competitive market conditions in New York City have had a
significant adverse impact on the effective rental rates achieved on new
leases, which has in turn impacted the operating performance of 245 Park. 
These conditions have resulted from new office building development since
the Partnership's acquisition of its interest in the building, as well as
from increased vacancy due to the severe downsizing of most of the major
financial services companies which dominate the New York office markets. 
Although it appears that rental rates may have stabilized in the Midtown
market somewhat in 1994, no rental rate decreases are expected in the near
term.  Despite re-leasing a substantial amount of space during the past few
years, the net operating income from the building reflects the reduced
effective rental rates on such new leases as compared to the effective
rental rates for the leases that have expired or otherwise terminated. 
This decrease has partially offset the increase in annual base rent for a
majority of the Bear Stearns space.  In addition, there have been higher
costs on a cumulative basis than originally anticipated associated with re-
leasing most of this space, primarily because of the costs incurred (which
are currently approximately $18 per square foot) to remove asbestos-
containing materials to comply with current New York City code requirements
adopted after the Partnership acquired its interest in the building.  A
substantial portion of the asbestos removal work has been completed.

     An existing tenant, Rabobank Nederland, has renewed its lease of the
36th floor (scheduled to expire in September 1998) and has become a direct
tenant on the 37th and 38th floors (currently sublet from National
Commercial Bank and Bear Stearns, respectively) in its new lease (102,000
square feet) which expires in 2011.

    After taking into account this new lease, there still remain tenant
leases of approximately 307,000 and 180,000 square feet in the building
which are scheduled to expire in 1996 and 1997, respectively.  The
Partnership currently anticipates that several of these tenants will vacate
their space upon their lease expiration, and that the releasing costs for
this space, including the downtime to locate replacement tenants, will be
significant.

     There are certain risks and uncertainties associated with the
Partnership's investment made through the joint venture, including the
possibility that the O&Y partners might become unable or unwilling to
fulfill their financial or other obligations, or that the O&Y partners may
have economic or business interests or goals that are inconsistent with
those of the Partnership.

     The O&Y partners granted security interests in their interests in 245
Park to a syndicate of banks in order to secure certain loan obligations of
certain O&Y affiliates.  In August 1992, the Partnership received notice
from the lead bank of the syndicate alleging that such O&Y affiliates were
in default under these loan obligations and directing that all payments and
distributions due to the O&Y partners from 245 Park be delivered to the
lead bank.  According to published reports, an investor group purchased
participations in these obligations from the original syndicate of banks. 
In September 1995, the holder of the loan obligations issued a notice of
sale of, among other things, the interests of the O&Y partners in 245 Park
in an effort to realize upon the collateral for the loan obligations.  In
October 1995, each of the O&Y partners, as well as other O&Y affiliates,
filed for protection from creditors under Chapter 11 of the United States
Bankruptcy Code.  As a result of these bankruptcy filings, the attempted
sale of the O&Y partners' interests in 245 Park was stayed.

     The O&Y partners and certain other O&Y affiliates are preparing a plan
to restructure their ownership interests in various office buildings,
including the 245 Park Avenue office building, which could take the form of
one or more real estate investment trusts.  Any such restructuring would be
subject to the approval of the various creditors of the O&Y partners and
other O&Y affiliates as well as the bankruptcy court, and would likely
result in such creditors collectively obtaining control of such ownership
interests.  Although the Partnership has had discussions with the O&Y
partners and certain of the creditors concerning possible restructuring
proposals, because of the preliminary status and the complexity of the
proposals, as well as the current divergence in the interests of certain of
the creditors, the Partnership does not know at this time how a
restructuring, if effected, would affect 245 Park and/or the O&Y partners'
and the Partnership's respective interests therein.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     The results of operations for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 1995 as compared to the three and nine months ended September
30, 1994 are primarily attributable to the operations of the real property
owned by the Partnership through the joint venture as described in Note 2.

     The increase in accounts payable to affiliates as of September 30,
1995 as compared to December 31, 1994 is primarily due to continued
deferral of expense reimbursements for legal and accounting services and
out-of-pocket costs owed to affiliates of the General Partners.

     The increases in accrued interest, demand note payable, accrued
interest payable to affiliate and the decrease in bank obligations payable
as of September 30, 1995 as compared to December 31, 1994 are due to the
interest accruals on certain of the term loans discussed above, payment of
principal and interest due on the LIBOR Note through July 1995 out of
advances under the demand note payable to JMB and interest accruals on such
advances as discussed above.

     The decrease in the Partnership's share of loss from operations of
unconsolidated venture for the three months ended September 30, 1995 as
compared to the three months ended September 30, 1994 is primarily due to
the accrual in September 1994 of default interest by 245 Park for the
period October 1, 1993 through September 30, 1994 on the first mortgage
loan at 18% per annum (of which the Partnership's share is approximately
$4,700,000) and for the period August 12, 1992 through September 30, 1994
on the second and fourth mortgage loans at 14% per annum (of which the
Partnership's share is approximately $2,300,000).  The increase in the
Partnership's share of loss from operations of unconsolidated venture for
the nine months ended September 30, 1995 as compared to its share of loss
from operations of unconsolidated ventures for the nine months ended
September 30, 1994 is primarily due to revenue of approximately $4,650,000
recognized by 245 Park in the first quarter of 1994 due to a lease
termination fee paid by National Commerce Bank, partially offset by the
accrual of the cumulative default interest in 1994.


PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

     ITEM 3.  DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES

     245 Park's first mortgage loan in the approximate principal amount of
$194,000,000 had an extended maturity date of January 1, 1994.  245 Park
did not repay the principal and accrued interest on the loan, but is
currently seeking a modification and extension of the loan.  245 Park has
continued to make, and the lender has continued to accept, monthly payments
of principal and interest in the same amount that were payable prior to its
original maturity date, October 31, 1993 as well as payment of a portion of
the default interest.  Accrued default interest is approximately
$18,722,000 at September 30, 1995.  245 Park continues to negotiate a
further modification and extension of its first mortgage loan. Reference is
made to Note 2 and to Liquidity and Capital Resources contained in the
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations section of this report for a discussion of the first mortgage
loan and 245 Park's efforts to obtain a modification and extension.

     The Partnership was previously notified that the junior mortgage loans
in the aggregate principal amount of approximately $192,500,000, secured by
the 245 Park Avenue office building were in default due to non-compliance
with certain lender financial reporting requirements, and the loans
subsequently matured in October 1994.  However, 245 Park has continued to
make, and the lender has continued to accept, monthly payments of interest
in the same amounts that were payable prior to October 1994 without
repayment.  As of the date of this Report, the holder of the junior
mortgage loans has not, to the knowledge of the Partnership, attempted to
exercise its remedies against the property.  The ability of 245 Park to
obtain a modification and extension of the junior mortgage loans will
depend upon, among other things, its obtaining a modification and extension
of the first mortgage loan.

     Interest on the Partnership's term loan in the principal amount of
$16,042,000 is payable monthly.  The Partnership has not made its monthly
interest payments on this loan since August 1995.  The amount of interest
in arrears as of the date of this report is $252,049.  The holder of the
term loan has not given notice of default or sought to exercise any
remedies arising out of the non-payment of monthly interest.

respect at any time.

     For purposes of the foregoing clauses (c), (d), (e), (f), (g) and (i)

constituting a default (as distinguished from an "event of default") under
a document or instrument other than this Restated Promissory Note III, to
the extent (if any) that such other document or instrument provides a grace
or cure period with respect to such default, the same grace or cure period,

as to a subsequent event.

     11.  Attorneys' Fees and Costs.  In the event one or more events of
default shall occur, Maker promises to pay all costs of collection of every
kind, including but not limited to all reasonable attorneys' fees, court

default shall occur, Maker promises to pay all costs of collection of every

beneficiary or agent of any corporation or trust that is or becomes a
constituent partner in Maker (including, but not limited to, persons
executing documents or certificates on behalf of Maker) shall have personal
liability (either directly or indirectly), all such personal liability
being expressly waived by JMB and (2) in no event shall a negative capital
account or any other funding obligations of any constituent partner in

right to collect, enforce or proceed against or with respect to any such
negative capital account or partner's obligations.

     17.  Miscellaneous.

Note II would be due on a date which is not a Business Day, the due date
therefor shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and interest
shall be payable at the applicable rate during such extension.  Each
payment (including prepayments) of principal of, or interest on, this
Restated Promissory Note II shall be made in Dollars by the Maker to JMB at
its office in Chicago, not later than noon, Chicago time, on the date due
therefor; and funds received after that hour shall be deemed to have been
received by JMB on the next following Business Day.  All payments (whether
of principal, interest or other amounts) which are applied at any time by
the holder hereof to indebtedness evidenced by this Restated Promissory
Note II, prior to an event of default, shall be allocated by the holder
first to expenses or other similar items, next to accrued interest, and
then to principal, and, after an event of default, may be allocated by the
holder to principal, interest or other amounts as the holder may determine
in the holder's sole discretion.

     (b)  In the event of any inconsistency between the provisions of
this Restated Promissory Note II and the provisions of the Third Amended

have been disbursed in Chicago, Illinois.

     (e)  This Restated Promissory Note II shall be binding upon Maker
and its respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that Maker
may not assign its rights hereunder or in connection herewith, and this
Restated Promissory Note II shall inure to the benefit of JMB and its
successors and assigns, including any participants of JMB.  Maker agrees
that JMB may assign its interest hereunder and sell participation interests
in the loan evidenced by this Restated Promissory Note II to one or more
other persons without notice to or consent of Maker.

DOLLARS ($16,042,000) (the "Loan Amount"), which Maker acknowledges has
previously been disbursed in full, together with interest on the unpaid
principal amount hereof from time to time outstanding, at the rate provided
for in Section 2 below.

     1.   Unless a contrary intention is apparent from the context, the

eurodollar market, for delivery on the first day of such Eurodollar Period,
for the number of days comprised therein and in an amount equal to the

a maximum outstanding principal amount of $40,000,000, as the same may be
amended or restated from time to time.

     "Loan" shall mean the indebtedness evidenced hereby.

     "Maturity Date" shall have the meaning assigned to that term in
Section 5 hereof.

     "Reference Rate" shall mean, at any time, the per annum rate of

secures the Secured Notes, as the same may be amended or restated from time
to time.

     2.   Interest Rates.  Prior to the Maturity Date, Maker may by
delivering written notice to the holder hereof on or before 10:00 a.m.,
Chicago time, on a Business Day, irrevocably elect, by not less than three
nor more than five Business Days' notice, that all or any portion (subject
to an aggregate minimum amount of $100,000.00) of the Loan be, in the case
of amounts then bearing interest at the Reference Rate, converted into a
tranche bearing interest at the Eurodollar Rate for a specified Eurodollar
Period or, in the case of a tranche already bearing interest at the
Eurodollar Rate (of which up to three may exist at any time), converted
into a tranche bearing interest at the Reference Rate or continued as a
tranche bearing interest at the Eurodollar Rate for a new specified
Eurodollar Period.  In the absence of the timely delivery of such a notice,
a tranche bearing interest at the Eurodollar Rate shall, on the last day of
any Eurodollar Period, automatically convert to a tranche bearing interest
at the Reference Rate.  No portion of the outstanding principal amount of
the Loan may be continued as, or be converted into, a tranche bearing
interest at the Eurodollar Rate when any event of default has occurred and
is continuing in connection herewith.

     During each Eurodollar Period, until an event of default described in
Section 11(a) occurs hereunder and after such an event of default if such
default has been cured, the rate of interest in effect under this Restated
Promissory Note I shall be the Eurodollar Rate for such Eurodollar Period.

     If no Eurodollar Period is in effect, subject to the next paragraph,
the rate of interest in effect under this Restated Promissory Note I shall
be the Reference Rate plus five-eighths percent (0.625%).

     From the Maturity Date until the time this Restated Promissory Note I
is paid in full, or after an event of default described in Section 11(a)
hereof shall occur until such event of default is cured, this Restated
Promissory Note I shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount hereof
from time to time outstanding at the floating rate (the "Default Rate")
which is equal to the sum of three percent (3%) per annum plus the
Reference Rate from time to time in effect and changing automatically and
simultaneously with each change in the Reference Rate.  Such interest shall
be paid on demand.

     3.   Bases for Determining Eurodollar Rate Inadequate or Unfair.  If
with respect to any Eurodollar Period during which the rate of interest
hereunder is the Eurodollar Rate:

          (i)  if the holder hereof determines (which determination shall
be binding and conclusive on Maker) that by reason of circumstances
affecting the London interbank market adequate and reasonable means do not
exist for ascertaining the applicable Eurodollar Rate; or

          (ii) the holder hereof determines that the Eurodollar Rate
will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the holder hereof of
maintaining or funding the Loan for such Eurodollar Period, or that the
making or funding of the Loan at the Eurodollar Rate has become
impracticable as a result of an event occurring after the date hereof
which, in the opinion of the holder hereof, materially affects the Loan,

then the holder hereof shall promptly notify Maker thereof in writing, and
Maker shall, on the last day of the then current Eurodollar Period, either
convert the affected portion of the Loan to the Reference Rate plus five-
eighths of one percent (0.625%), or prepay the Loan to the holder hereof in
full without any penalty whatsoever but with accrued and unpaid interest
thereon.

     4.   Changes in Law Rendering Certain Rates Unlawful.  If at any
time due to any new law, rule, regulation or requirement, or any
interpretation thereof by any governmental or other regulatory authority
charged with the administration thereof, or for any other reason arising
subsequent to the date hereof, it shall become unlawful for the holder
hereof to continue the Loan using the Eurodollar Rate, the holder hereof
shall, upon the happening of such event, notify Maker thereof in writing
stating the reasons therefor, and Maker shall, on the earlier of (i) the
last day of the then current Eurodollar Period, or (ii) if required by such
law, regulation or interpretation, on such date as shall be specified in
such notice, at its option, either convert such unlawful portion of the
Loan to the Reference Rate plus five-eighths of one percent (0.625%), or
prepay the Loan (including all accrued and unpaid interest) to the holder
hereof in full without any penalty whatsoever.

     5.   Interest Payment Dates; Basis of Calculation.  In all cases,
interest shall be paid on the first day of each month commencing with the
first day of the first month following the date hereof.  All interest shall
be computed for the actual number of days elapsed on the basis of a year
consisting of three hundred sixty (360) days.  On the Maturity Date, all
accrued and unpaid interest hereunder shall be due and payable.

     6.   Maximum Interest Rate.  In no event shall the amount paid or
agreed to be paid hereunder (including all interest and the aggregate of
any other amounts taken, reserved or charged pursuant to this Restated
Promissory Note I or any other document evidencing or securing the Loan,
which under applicable law is deemed to constitute interest on the
indebtedness evidenced by this Restated Promissory Note I) exceed the
highest lawful rate permissible under applicable law; and if under any
circumstance whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision of this Restated
Promissory Note I, at the time performance of such provision shall be due,
shall involve transcending the limit of validity prescribed by applicable
law, then, ipso facto, the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to
the limit of such validity, and if from any circumstance the holder of this
Restated Promissory Note I should receive as interest an amount which would
exceed the highest lawful rate allowable under law, such amount which would
be excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the unpaid
principal balance due under this Restated Promissory Note I and not to the
payment of interest, or if such excess interest exceeds the unpaid balance
of principal, the excess shall be refunded to Maker.

     7.   Repayment of Principal.  The entire unpaid principal amount of
this Restated Promissory Note I shall be due and payable in full on
December 31, 1998 or earlier upon acceleration as hereinafter provided (the
"Maturity Date").  Notwithstanding the aforesaid in this paragraph, Maker
shall prepay the Loan upon receipt, and to the extent, of any net proceeds
received upon the sale, refinancing or other disposition of, or any
distributions made with respect to, the Collateral (as defined in the Third
Amended and Restated Security Agreement) in accordance with Section 8
hereof.

     8.   Application of Payments.  JMB shall apply any amounts received
from Maker as prepayments in accordance with Section 7 above to reduce
Maker's outstanding indebtedness under the JMB Note, this Restated
Promissory Note I, the Restated Promissory Note II or the Restated
Promissory Note III, in such order as JMB, in its sole discretion, shall
elect.

     9.   Prepayment.  Subject to Sections 8 and 19(a) hereof, Maker
reserves the privilege to prepay this Restated Promissory Note I in full or
in part without premium or penalty.

     10.  Security.  This Restated Promissory Note I is secured by the
Third Amended and Restated Security Agreement dated of even date herewith
executed and delivered by Maker to JMB, encumbering Maker's 48.2467039%
interest in 245 and certain other collateral set forth therein.  Reference
is made to the Third Amended and Restated Security Agreement for a
description of the property encumbered, the nature and extent of the
security, and the rights of the holder hereof in respect to such security. 
The provisions of the Third Amended and Restated Security Agreement shall
be deemed to be incorporated by reference herein as though set out herein
in their entirety.

     11.  Events of Default and Remedies.  Any one of the following
occurrences shall constitute an "event of default" under this Restated
Promissory Note I:

     (a)  The failure by Maker to make any payment of principal or
interest upon this Restated Promissory Note I as and when the same becomes
due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof, and the continuation
of such failure for five (5) days after written notice thereof to Maker
from JMB;

     (b)  The occurrence of any default under this Restated Promissory
Note I other than as described in the preceding clause (a), and the
continuance of such failure for thirty (30) days after written notice
thereof to Maker from JMB; provided that if at the end of such 30 day
period Maker, in JMB's sole judgment, is proceeding with due diligence to
cure such default, then there shall not be an event of default for an
additional period of the shorter of 60 days or the period during which, in
JMB's sole judgment, Maker continues to proceed with due diligence to cure
such default;

     (c)  The occurrence of any Default (as defined in the Third Amended

     (h)  Maker, any general partner of Maker (or any constituent general
partner thereof), or 245 becomes insolvent or generally fails to pay, or
admits in writing its inability to pay, debts as they become due; or Maker,
any general partner of Maker (or any constituent general partner thereof),
or 245 applies for, consents to, or acquiesces in the appointment of, a
trustee, receiver or other custodian for itself or of any of its property,
or makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; or, in the
absence of such application, consent or acquiescence, a trustee, receiver
or other custodian is appointed for Maker, any general partner of Maker (or
any constituent general partner thereof) or 245, or for a substantial part
of the property of any of them, and is not discharged within 30 days; or
other case or proceeding under any bankruptcy or insolvency law, or any
dissolution or liquidation proceeding is commenced in respect of Maker, any
general partner of Maker (or any constituent general partner thereof) or
245, and if such case or proceeding is not commenced by Maker, any general
partner of Maker (or any constituent general partner thereof), or 245, it
is consented to or acquiesced in by Maker, any general partner of Maker (or
any constituent general partner thereof) or 245, or remains for 60 days
undismissed; or Maker, any general partner of Maker (or any constituent
general partner thereof) or 245, takes any action to authorize, or in
furtherance of, any of the foregoing; or

     (i)  Any representation, warranty or certification made by Maker to
JMB or any holder hereof in connection with the Loan, this Restated

     For purposes of the foregoing clauses (c), (d), (e), (f), (g) and (i)
of this Section 11, with respect to any event or occurrence which
constitutes an event of default hereunder solely by reason of its
constituting a default (as distinguished from an "event of default") under
a document or instrument other than this Restated Promissory Note I, to the
extent (if any) that such other document or instrument provides a grace or
cure period with respect to such default, the same grace or cure period,
and only such period, shall apply with respect to this Restated Promissory
Note I.

     Upon the occurrence of any event of default hereunder:  (i) the
entire unpaid principal balance of, and any unpaid interest then accrued
on, and any other amounts owing under or evidenced by this Restated
Promissory Note I shall, at the option of the holder hereof and without
notice or demand of any kind to Maker or any other person, immediately
become due and payable; and (ii) the holder hereof shall have and may
exercise any and all rights and remedies available at law or in equity and

reference to any one event shall not be construed as continuing, as a bar
to, or as a waiver or release of, any subsequent right, remedy or recourse
as to a subsequent event.

     12.  Attorneys' Fees and Costs.  In the event one or more events of
default shall occur, Maker promises to pay all costs of collection of every
kind, including but not limited to all reasonable attorneys' fees, court

nor any officer, shareholder, director, employee, trustee, beneficiary or
agent of any corporation or trust that is or becomes a constituent partner
in Maker (including, but not limited to, persons executing documents or
certificates on behalf of Maker) shall have personal liability (either
directly or indirectly), all such personal liability being expressly waived
by JMB and (2) in no event shall a negative capital account or any other
funding obligations of any constituent partner in Maker be deemed to be an

this Restated Promissory Note I shall have any right to collect, enforce or

partner's obligations.

     19.  Miscellaneous.

Note I would be due on a date which is not a Business Day, the due date
therefor shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and
interest shall be payable at the applicable rate during such extension. 
Each payment (including prepayments) of principal of, or interest on, the
Restated Promissory Note I shall be made in Dollars by the Maker to JMB at
its office in Chicago, not later than noon, Chicago time, on the date due
therefor; and funds received after that hour shall be deemed to have been
received by JMB on the next following Business Day.  All payments (whether
of principal, interest or other amounts) which are applied at any time by
the holder hereof to indebtedness evidenced by this Restated Promissory
Note I, prior to an event of default, shall be allocated by the holder
first to expenses or other similar items, next to accrued interest, and
then to principal, and, after an event of default, may be allocated by the
holder to principal, interest or other amounts as the holder may determine
in the holder's sole discretion.

     (b)  In the event of any inconsistency between the provisions of
this Restated Promissory Note I and the provisions of the Third Amended and

have been disbursed in Chicago, Illinois.

     (e)  This Restated Promissory Note I shall be binding upon Maker and

                    FOURTH AMENDMENT TO LOAN DOCUMENTS

      THIS FOURTH AMENDMENT TO LOAN DOCUMENTS (the "Fourth Amendment") is
entered into as of the 1st day of August, 1995, by and between JMB/245 PARK
AVENUE ASSOCIATES, LTD., an Illinois limited partnership (formerly known as
JMB/245 Park Avenue Associates) (the "Borrower") and JMB REALTY
CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation ("JMB").

                              R E C I T A L S

      A.    Bank of America Illinois ( successor to Continental Bank N.A.
and formerly known as Continental Illinois National Bank and Trust Company
of Chicago) (the "Bank") has heretofore made to Borrower two loans (the
"Term Loans") in the amounts of Fifteen Million and No/100 Dollars
("$15,000,000 Term Loan") and Thirty-Five Million and No/100 Dollars (the
"$35,000,000 Term Loan"), respectively, which Term Loans were evidenced by:
(i) a certain Promissory Note dated as of December 29, 1983 in the original
principal amount of Fifteen Million and No/100 Dollars ($15,000,000)
(herein, said Promissory Note, as amended, is called the "$15,000,000
Note") and (ii) a certain Promissory Note dated as of December 39, 1983 in
the original principal amount of Thirty-Five Million and No/100 Dollars
($35,000,000) (herein, said Promissory Note, as amended, is called the
"$35,000,000 Note").

      B.    The $15,000,000 Note was secured by a certain Security
Agreement between Borrower and the Bank, dated as of December 29, 1983,
relating to the $15,000,000 Note (herein, said Security Agreement is called
the "$15,000,000 Security Agreement").  The $35,000,000 Note was secured by
a certain Security Agreement between Borrower and the Bank, dated as of
December 29, 1983, relating to the $35,000,000 Note (herein, said Security
Agreement is called the "$35,000,000 Security Agreement").  The Borrower
and the Bank have heretofore entered into separate First Amended and
Restated Security Agreements dated as of December 29, 1983, which amend and
restate, respectively, the $15,000,000 Security Agreement and the
$35,000,000 Security Agreement, (herein, said First Amended and Restated
Security Agreements are collectively called the "First Restated Security
Agreements").

      C.    To secure the $15,000,000 Note, JMB, Judd D. Malkin, Neil G.
Bluhm, and the 1975 Judd D. Malkin Life Insurance Trust (collectively, the
"Previous Guarantors") executed and delivered to the Bank a certain
Guaranty of Payment, dated as of December 29, 1983, relating to the
$15,000,000 Note (herein, said Guaranty, as heretofore amended, is called
the "$15,000,000 Guaranty").  To secure the $35,000,000 Note, the Previous
Guarantors executed and delivered to the Bank (i) a certain Guaranty of
Payment relating to the $35,000,000 Note, and (ii) a certain Guaranty of
Interest relating to the $35,000,000 Note, which Guaranty of Interest was
supplemented by a certain letter agreement between the Bank and Previous
Guarantors (respecting net cash flow), all dated as of December 29, 1983
(herein the Guaranties described in the preceding sentence of this
paragraph, as heretofore amended, are collectively called the "$35,000,000
Guaranties").  In addition to the $35,000,000 Guaranties, Borrower
heretofore executed and delivered to the Bank a letter agreement dated as
of April 15, 1991 and JMB heretofore executed and delivered to the Bank an
additional Guaranty of Payment, dated as of April 15, 1991, relating to the
$35,000,000 Note (herein, the "$10,000,000 Guaranty" and, herein, said
letter agreement is called the "Original Letter Agreement") (herein, said
$15,000,000 Guaranty, said $35,000,000 Guaranties, and the $10,000,000
Guaranty are collectively called the "Pre-Existing Guaranties").

      D.    The Bank and Borrower also entered into a certain Consent
Agreement dated as of December 29, 1983, relating to the Term Loans
(herein, such Consent Agreement, as heretofore amended, is called the
"Consent Agreement").

      E.    The Bank and Borrower have heretofore entered into a certain
First Amendment to Notes, Loan Documents and Guaranties (herein, the "First
Amendment") relating to the $15,000,000 Note, the $35,000,000 Note, the
Original Letter Agreement, the $15,000,000 Guaranty, the $35,000,000
Guaranties, the $15,000,000 Security Agreement and the $35,000,000 Security
Agreement.

      F.    The Bank and Borrower heretofore entered into a Second
Amendment to the $15,000,000 Loan Documents and $35,000,000 Loan Documents
dated as of July 10, 1984 to reflect changes in the Borrower's name and
general partner and to make certain amendments to such documents as of that
date (herein, the "Second Amendment").

      G.    The Bank and Borrower have heretofore entered into a certain
Interest Exchange Agreement dated February 1, 1984 (herein, as amended, the
"Interest Exchange Agreement").

      H.    The $15,000,000 Note, the $15,000,000 Guaranty, and any other
documents or instruments evidencing, securing, or related to the
$15,000,000 Term Loan (except the $15,000,000 Security Agreement and the
First Restated Security Agreement relating thereto), as heretofore amended,
are herein collectively called the "$15,000,000 Term Loan Documents".  The
$35,000,000 Note, the $35,000,000 Guaranties, the Original Letter
Agreement, and any other documents or instruments evidencing, securing or
related to the $35,000,000 Term Loan (except the $35,000,000 Security
Agreement and the First Restated Security Agreement relating thereto), as
heretofore amended, are herein collectively called the "$35,000,000 Term
Loan Documents" and together with the $15,000,000 Term Loan Documents, the
$35,000,000 Term Loan Documents, the Consent Agreement, the First Amendment
and the Second Amendment are herein collectively called the "Pre-Existing
Loan Documents."

      J.    The Bank, the Borrower and JMB entered into that certain Third
Amendment to Loan Documents dated as of December 31, 1993 pursuant to which
(i) the $15,000,000 Note and the $35,000,000 Note were amended and restated
to provide for two Amended and Restated Promissory Notes, each in the
principal amount of $25,000,000, and referred to as the Guaranteed Amended
and Restated Promissory Note (the "Guaranteed Note") and the Fixed Rate
Amended and Restated Promissory Note (the "Fixed Rate Note"), respectively,
(ii) the First Restated Security Agreements were amended and restated
pursuant to Second Amended and Restated Security Agreements, (iii) the
Borrower executed and delivered to the Bank an Interest Exchange Agreement
Promissory Note in the original principal amount of $2,194,631.25 to
evidence the indebtedness of Borrower to the Bank under the Interest
Exchange Agreement (the "Interest Exchange Agreement Note") and an Interest
Exchange Agreement Note Security Agreement to secure such Interest Exchange
Agreement Note, and (iv) JMB executed and delivered to the Bank an Amended
and Restated Guaranty of Payment (the "JMB Guaranty") consolidating and
superseding the $15,000,000 Guaranty and the $10,000,000 Guaranty.

      K.    JMB has from time to time made advances to the Borrower to
enable the Borrower to pay interest and principal under the Guaranteed Note
and certain other expenses and expects to make additional advances to pay
other expenses, and the obligation of the Borrower to repay such advances
is evidenced by that certain Subordinated Demand Note dated December 31,
1993 made payable by the Borrower in favor of JMB, providing for the
maximum outstanding principal amount of $40,000,000 (the "JMB Note").

      L.    On July 31, 1995, the Bank, Mellon Bank, N.A. ("Mellon") and
JMB entered into a letter agreement ("Letter Agreement") pursuant to which
the Bank and Mellon have sold, and JMB has purchased, all of the Bank's and
Mellon's respective right, title and interest in the Guaranteed Note, the
Fixed Rate Note and the Interest Exchange Agreement Note (collectively, the
"Notes") and the Second Amended and Restated Security Agreements and the
Interest Exchange Agreement Note Security Agreement (collectively, the
"Security Agreements") and the JMB Guaranty and other Related Agreements
defined in the Letter Agreement (the Notes, the Security Agreements, the
JMB Guaranty and the other Related Agreements collectively, the "Loan
Documents").

      M.    The parties desire to enter into this amendment to amend and
restate in part and otherwise reaffirm, to the extent set forth herein, the
Loan Documents.

      NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good
and valuable consideration the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, and in consideration of the various agreements set out
herein, the parties do hereby agree as follows:

      1.    The foregoing Recitals are hereby incorporated into this Fourth
Amendment as though set out in their entirety in the body hereof.

      2.    As a condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Fourth
Amendment, Borrower shall execute and deliver in a form acceptable to JMB
the following:

            a.    A Second Amended And Restated Promissory Note (the
"Restated Promissory Note I") in the principal amount of $16,042,000; and

            b.    A Second Amended and Restated Promissory Note (the
"Restated Promissory Note II") in the principal amount of $25,000,000; and

            c.    An Amended and Restated Promissory Note (the "Restated
Promissory Note III") in the principal amount of $2,194,631.25; and

            d.    An Amended and Restated Demand Note (the "Restated JMB
Note") in the maximum principal amount of $40,000,000; and

            e.    A Third Amended and Restated Security Agreement (the
"Third Amended and Restated Security Agreement") to secure the payment and
performance of the Restated Promissory Note I, the Restated Promissory Note
II, the Restated Promissory Note III and the Restated JMB Note; and

            f.    Supporting documentation deemed reasonably necessary by
JMB; and

            g.    Payment of all costs and expenses of JMB in connection
with this Fourth Amendment and the transactions and documentation
contemplated herein.

      3.    All references in the Loan Documents to documents amended in
connection herewith shall henceforth refer to such documents as amended to
date and as amended, modified or restated from time to time.  Except as
amended hereby or by the documents executed and delivered by Borrower to
JMB pursuant to paragraph 2 of this Fourth  Amendment, all of the terms,
conditions, provisions, and agreements set forth in the Loan Documents,
excluding the Original Letter Agreement and the JMB Guaranty, are hereby
reaffirmed, ratified, and confirmed in their entirety.

      4.    Each of the Original Letter Agreement and the JMB Guaranty is
hereby terminated and released and shall be of no further force and effect.

      5.    JMB shall be deemed to be substituted as a party to the Consent
Agreement in place of the Bank.  All duties and responsibilities of
Borrower owed to the Bank, and all rights and remedies of the Bank with
respect to Borrower, under the Consent Agreement shall henceforth be given
to, or may be exercised by, JMB (as the case may be) under the Consent
Agreement.  The references in the first paragraph on page 3 of the Consent
Agreement to the "Notes" are hereby changed to mean collectively the
Restated Promissory Note I, the Restated Promissory Note II, the Restated
Promissory Note III and the Restated JMB Note, and the references in such
paragraph of the Consent Agreement to clause (iii) of Section 8 of each of
the Security Agreements are hereby changed to refer to clause (ii) of
Section 8 of the Third Amended and Restated Security Agreement.  The third
paragraph on page 3 of the Consent Agreement is hereby deleted in its
entirety, and there is substituted in its place the following:

            "All notices and consents under this Consent Agreement shall be
in writing and shall have been deemed to have been given when delivered
personally or on the second business day following the day when deposited
in the United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to JMB at 900 North
Michigan Avenue, Suite 1900, Chicago, Illinois 60611, to the attention of
H. Rigel Barber, and addressed to the Borrower at 900 North Michigan
Avenue, Suite 1900, Chicago, Illinois 60611, to the attention of Stuart C.
Nathan."

      6.    Borrower acknowledges JMB's right to obtain a new appraisal (or
update of an existing appraisal) of the real estate at any time while the
loan or any portion thereof remains outstanding, (a) when, in JMB's
reasonable judgment, such an appraisal is warranted as a result of JMB's
internal evaluation of the subject loan, and/or (b) to comply with
statutes, rules, regulations, or directives of governmental agencies having
jurisdiction over JMB.  Borrower hereby agrees to pay, upon demand, all
appraisers' fees and related expenses incurred by JMB from time to time in
obtaining appraisal reports.

      7.    To induce JMB to enter into this Fourth Amendment, Borrower
warrants to JMB that:

            (i)   Authorization:  No Conflict.  The execution and delivery
of this Fourth Amendment, and the performance by the Borrower of its
obligations under this Fourth Amendment, are within Borrower's partnership
powers, have been duly authorized by all necessary partnership, corporate,
or other action, have received all necessary governmental approval (if any
shall be required) and do not and will not contravene or conflict with any
provisions of law or the partnership agreement of Borrower or of any
agreement binding upon Borrower.

            (ii)  Validity and Binding Nature.  This Fourth Amendment is
the legal, valid and binding obligation of Borrower enforceable against
Borrower in accordance with its terms.

      8.    This Fourth Amendment shall be governed by and construed under
the laws of the State of Illinois.

      9.    Notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary, JMB
agrees (for itself and its successors and assigns) that (1) all liability
hereunder or with respect to the debt evidenced or secured by the documents
executed and delivered by Borrower in connection herewith shall be
satisfied only out of the assets of Borrower and that no present or future
constituent partner (i.e., person holding an equity interest) in or any
agent of the Borrower, nor any officer, shareholder, director, employee,
trustee, beneficiary or agent of any corporation or trust that is or
becomes a constituent partner in Borrower (including, but not limited to,
persons executing documents or certificates on behalf of Borrower) shall
have personal liability (directly or indirectly), all such personal
liability being expressly waived by JMB, and (2) in no event shall a
negative capital account or any other funding obligations of any
constituent partner in Borrower be deemed to be an asset or the property of
Borrower and neither JMB nor any subsequent holder of this document shall
have any right to collect, enforce or proceed against or with respect to
any such negative capital account or partner's obligation.

      IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Fourth Amendment
at Chicago, Illinois as of the day and year above written.

                              CONSENT AGREEMENT



                                                          December 29, 1983

Continental Illinois National Bank
  and Trust Company of Chicago
231 South LaSalle Street
Chicago, Illinois   60697

Dear Sirs:

      In order to induce you (the "Bank") to make those certain loans of
$35,000,000, $15,000,000 and $13,000,000 to the undersigned (the
"Borrower"), evidenced by promissory notes in the respective amounts of
$35,000,000 (the "$35,000,000 Note"), $15,000,000 and $13,000,000
(collectively, the "Notes"), each secured pursuant to a Security Agreement
by an assignment of the partnership interest held by the undersigned in the
New York general partnership known as 245 Park Avenue Company (the
"Partnership"), the undersigned hereby agrees, for so long as any of such
Security Agreements shall remain in effect.

      1)    whenever Borrower's consent is requested by either of the other
partners under the following sections of the Partnership Agreement
establishing 245 Park Avenue Company (the "Agreement"), to notify Bank as
soon as Borrower is notified of such request and, subject to the following
paragraphs of this Consent Agreement, not to grant such consent without the
Bank's prior written consent:  (Section 2.3 Distributions of Capital,
(provided that Bank's consent shall not be required if such capital
distributions are made either on the basis of the Distributive Percentages
of the partners as defined in the Agreement or on a basis more favorable to
Borrower, and if such distribution is disbursed into the assignee deposit
account required under Section 5 of the aforesaid Security Agreement),
Section 2.4 Additional Capital Contributions, Section 2.7 B Loans by
Partners/Additional Loans (provided that in the case of either an
additional capital contribution under Section 2.4 or a loan by a partner or
an additional loan under Section 2.7, the Bank's consent shall not be
required if such additional capital, loan by a partner or additional loan
is in each case subordinated to the Bank's loan evidenced by the Notes, and
may not be either partially or wholly repaid until the Notes have been
repaid in full); Section 6.2 D(3) (respecting a sale of less than all of
the 245 Properties or a sale and leaseback thereof); Section 6.2 E 
(respecting financing and refinancing other than as permitted by Section 6.2 
F) (provided that in the case of either a sale under Section 6.2 D(3) or a 
financing or refinancing under Section 6.2 E, the Bank's consent shall not be 
required if the proceeds from such sale, financing or refinancing are 
sufficient to pay in full to the Bank at the initial closing thereunder the 
outstanding balance of the Notes); and Section 7.1 Transfer of Partnership 
Interests/In General; and

      2)    not to enter into any modification, amendment or supplement to
the Agreement, or otherwise engage in any action, or consent to or permit
any action by any other partner in the Partnership, which would result in
the creation of any interest prior in any respect to the interest of the
Bank under the Security Agreements, including without limitation any
distribution of capital to  any of the partners in the Partnership, any
additional capital contributions or loans or advances by any of the
partners or any third party to the Partnership, or any sale of all or any
part of the 245 Properties (as defined in the Agreement), or any partial or
complete financing or refinancing with respect thereto, or any transfer of
partnership interest by a partner other than Borrower, except as
specifically permitted by the Agreement as of the date hereof, or except as
allowed in the case of a distribution of capital, sale, financing or
refinancing which does not require the Bank's consent under Section 1
hereof.

      By executing in the apace provided below, the Bank agrees that
whenever its consent shall be required under Section 1 above, such consent
shall not be withheld unreasonably, considered by the Bank from the point
of view of its economic best interest as the holder of a collateral
assignment of a partnership interest in a general partnership, taking into
account the portion of the indebtedness evidenced by the Notes which is
then guaranteed (including whether or not the Guaranty of Interest relating
to the $35,000,000 Note has been released).

      Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 1 above, if the Bank
withholds its consent under this Consent Agreement, even if such consent is
withheld reasonably from the Bank's point of view as described above, but
the Borrower nonetheless reasonably concludes, after consultation with the
Bank on the matter, but without any requirement of an opinion of counsel,
that the Borrower is legally obligated under the Agreement to issue its
consent to such other partner, then the Bank's consent hereunder shall not
be required.
<PAGE>
      Any default under this Consent Agreement (a "Consent Default") shall
at the election of the Bank upon notice to Borrower constitute a default
under each of the Notes and the Bank shall have all the remedies provided
under each of the Notes.  In addition, a Consent Default shall have the
same effect as a "Default in the nature of the failure to perform a
monetary obligation" under clause (iii) of Section 8 of each of the
Security Agreements securing the Notes for all purposes of such clause
(iii).

      This Consent Agreement shall be a contract made under and governed by
the laws of the State of Illinois.

       All notices and consents under this Consent Agreement shall be in
writing and shall have been deemed to have been given when delivered
personally or on the second business day following the day when deposited
in the United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the Bank at its

Callahan, and, addressed to the Borrower at 875 North Michigan Avenue,
Suite 3900, Chicago, Illinois 60611, to the attention of Stuart C. Nathan.

      This Consent Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit
of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns and,

respect hereto of Bank, or any agent or representative of Bank, may be
exercised by any successor or assignee of Bank, including any patty to whom
the Bank sells a participation interest herein, or any agent or
representative or such successor or assignee.

enable the Borrower to pay interest and principal under one of the Existing
Notes and certain other expenses and expects to make additional advances to
pay other expenses, and the obligation of the Borrower to repay such
advances is evidenced by that certain Subordinated Demand Note dated
December 31, 1993 made payable by the Borrower in favor of JMB, providing
for the maximum outstanding principal amount of $40,000,000 (as amended or

     5.   Payment of Amounts Due Borrower under the Agreement. 
A.   Prior to notice by JMB to Borrower, 245 and O & Y Equity of an event
which is a Default, or which, but for the passage of any applicable grace
period, would be a Default, by Borrower hereunder, Borrower agrees to pay
immediately and in full to JMB (to reduce the indebtedness on the Restated
Promissory Notes and the JMB Note), and after such notice, the Borrower
hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs 245, to pay all proceeds now due
or hereafter to become due to the Borrower in respect of 245 and/or the 245
Properties, whether derived from any financing or refinancing of the 245
Properties prior to the maturity date of the Restated Promissory Notes and
the JMB Note, or from any distributions to the partners under the Agreement
either of capital or cash flow, or otherwise, into an account which JMB
shall designate for the benefit of JMB only.  If Borrower cures a default
of which JMB has given Borrower notice before such default constitutes a
Default hereunder, then Borrower's authorization and direction to 245, to
make payments directly to JMB shall lapse and be of no further force and
effect with respect to such default; provided, however, that 245 may
continue to make payments directly to JMB until JMB shall have given 245
and O & Y Equity further notice hereunder (JMB agreeing promptly to notify
245 and O & Y Equity in the event that 245 shall no longer be required to
make payments directly to JMB hereunder).  All such amounts received by
JMB, either from the Borrower or 245, shall be applied to the Liabilities
in the manner set forth in the Restated Promissory Notes and the JMB Note.

     B.   For so long as Borrower is making such payments, the proceeds
now due or hereafter to become due to the Borrower in respect of 245 and/or
245 Properties may be net of normal operating costs of Borrower, including
attorney's fees and accountant's fees and reimbursements for other services
rendered to the Borrower by third parties.

     6.   Indemnification.  The Borrower will indemnify and save harmless
JMB from and against all claims, liabilities and expenses on account of any
liability, adverse claim, loss or expense asserted against JMB under or by
reason of this Assignment or as a result of any payments received by JMB
from any obligor on any Collateral or otherwise as proceeds of any
Collateral, except for matters resulting from a) the gross negligence or
intentional misconduct of JMB in exercising any of its remedies hereunder
or in performing any of its duties and obligations hereunder, or b) matters
relating to any period after such time as JMB (or any third party acquiring
the Collateral pursuant to JMB's exercise of its remedies) may have fully
succeeded to all of Borrower's right, title and interest in and to the
Collateral as a result of its exercise of its remedies hereunder or
otherwise.  Such obligation of the Borrower shall continue in effect after
and notwithstanding the discharge of the Liabilities and the release hereof
or the succession by JMB (or any third party acquiring the Collateral
pursuant to JMB's exercise of its remedies) to Borrower's right, title and
interest in and to the Collateral.

     7.   Default.  Whenever a Default shall be existing, JMB may
exercise any rights and remedies available to it under the Restated
Promissory Notes or any other Loan Document (including, without limitation,
acceleration of the Liabilities), or under applicable law.  In addition,
JMB shall have all rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform
Commercial Code of Illinois (regardless of whether such law or a similar
law is in effect in the jurisdiction where such rights and remedies are
asserted).  Without limiting the foregoing, upon Default JMB may, to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable law, without notice, advertisement,
hearing or process of law of any kind, sell any or all of the Collateral,
free of all rights and claims of the Borrower therein and thereto, at any
public or private sale, and bid for and purchase any or all of the
Collateral at any such sale.  In connection with any sale of the Collateral
made by JMB or any other party pursuant to or in accordance with or by
reason of this Assignment, JMB or said other party shall have the right,
free of any right of redemption of the Borrower (which Borrower hereby
waives), to execute and deliver an assignment of the Collateral to any
purchaser at such sale.  The Borrower hereby expressly waives, to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all notices,
advertisements, hearings or process of law in connection with the exercise
by JMB of any of its rights and remedies upon Default.  If any notification
of intended disposition of any of the Collateral is required by law, such
notification, if mailed, shall be deemed reasonably and properly given if
mailed at least thirty (30) days before such disposition, postage prepaid,
addressed to the Borrower either at the address shown above, or such other
address of the Borrower within the State of Illinois as the Borrower may
indicate to JMB by a written notice complying with Section 10 hereof.  All
costs and expenses of any kind whatsoever, of collection and enforcement of
the Liabilities or any rights or remedies hereunder (including, without
limitation, all costs of disposing of the Collateral, together with court
costs and reasonable attorneys' fees), or incurred in realizing upon the
Collateral or in enforcing this Assignment, shall be paid by the Borrower,
shall be deemed to be additional Liabilities secured hereby.  Any proceeds
of any of the Collateral may be applied by JMB to the payment of expenses
in connection with the Collateral, including reasonable attorneys' fees and
legal expenses, and any balance of such proceeds shall be applied by JMB
toward the payment of such of the Liabilities (including the Restated
Promissory Notes and the JMB Note), and in such order of application, as
JMB may from time to time elect, with the excess, if any, to be paid to
Borrower.

     8.   Performance by JMB of Borrower's Obligations. After a Default
hereunder, or an event which, but for the passage of any applicable grace
period, would be a Default hereunder, JMB may, from time to time, perform
any obligation to be performed by the Borrower (a) hereunder or (b) under
the Restated Promissory Notes or the JMB Note or any of the Loan Documents,
any other instrument or document evidencing or securing any of the
Liabilities, or (c) under the Collateral (including, without limitation,
the Agreement), which the Borrower shall fail to perform, and JMB may take
any other action which JMB deems necessary for the maintenance or
preservation of any of the Collateral or its security interest in the
Collateral, with the following limitations: (i) if Borrower's obligation to
be performed by JMB is a non-monetary obligation and does not relate to the
giving of a consent or approval, then JMB may render such performance only
after JMB has given Borrower notice of an event which is a Default, or
which, but for the passage of any applicable grace period, would be a
Default hereunder (provided that JMB's power to perform such obligation
shall cease if and at such time as Borrower cures an event which is not yet
a Default within any applicable cure period); and (ii) if the Borrower's
obligation to be performed by JMB relates to the giving of a consent or
approval, JMB may render such performance only if a Default in the nature
of the failure to perform a monetary obligation has occurred, JMB has
accelerated the Liabilities, and JMB has initiated the process of
foreclosing on the Collateral, and either (a) JMB deems such action
necessary for the maintenance or preservation of any of the Collateral or
its security interest in the Collateral, or (b) in JMB's opinion, without
any requirement of an opinion of counsel, the Borrower is legally obligated
under the Agreement to issue such consent or approval.  All moneys advanced
by JMB in connection with the foregoing, together with interest at the rate
provided for after a default in the Restated Promissory Notes shall be
repaid by the Borrower to JMB, upon the latter's demand, or at such earlier
time as the Borrower may elect, and shall be secured hereby as part of the
Liabilities prior to any other obligation secured hereby, but the making of
any such advance by JMB shall not relieve the Borrower of any Default
hereunder.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in all of their dealings with
the Borrower in connection with any consents, approvals or other
obligations which are the subject of the foregoing provisions of this
Section 8, Olympia & York 245 Park Avenue Holding Company, L.P. and O & Y
Equity Company, L.P. (collectively with their respective successors and
assigns, the "O & Y Partners") and 245 shall be entitled to rely on the
directions of the managing general partner of Borrower until they shall
have each received notice from JMB to the contrary and, following their
receipt of such notice from JMB, the O & Y Partners and 245 shall be
entitled to rely only on JMB's directions until such time as the O & Y
Partners (or any of them) and 245 shall have received further notice from
JMB that they may once again rely on the directions of the managing general
partner of the Borrower (JMB agreeing promptly to notify 245 and the O & Y
Partners in the event that they may once again rely on the directions of
the managing general partner of Borrower pursuant to the terms of this
Section 8).

     9.   No Liability on JMB.  Anything herein contained to the contrary
notwithstanding, this Assignment is given as collateral security only, (i)
the Borrower shall remain liable under the Agreement to perform all of its
obligations thereunder, (ii) JMB shall have no obligation or liability by
reason of or arising out of this Assignment (including actions by JMB
pursuant to Section 8 hereof), except matters resulting from JMB's gross
negligence or intentional misconduct, and (iii) until such time, if any, as
JMB (or a third party ["Third Party"] acquiring the Collateral pursuant to
JMB's exercise of its remedies hereunder or under any other of the Loan
Documents) succeeds to the Borrower's interest in the Collateral, JMB shall
have no obligation or liability under the Agreement (and then JMB or such
Third Party, as the case may be, only as to obligations and liabilities
accruing from and after such time).  In addition, unless and until JMB (or
any such Third Party) succeeds to Borrower's interest in the Collateral,
neither JMB nor such Third Party shall have any obligation to make any
payment or to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any
payment received by it, to present or file any claim, or to take any action
to collect or enforce the payment of any amounts which have been assigned
to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times.  Under no
circumstances whatsoever will JMB (or any such Third Party) be deemed a
partner or member in 245 until such time, if any, as JMB (or such Third
Party) acquires Borrower's interest in the Collateral.

     10.  Miscellaneous.  No remedy herein conferred is intended to be
exclusive of any other remedy, but every such remedy shall be cumulative
and shall be in addition to every other remedy herein conferred, or
conferred upon JMB by any other agreement or instrument or security, or now
or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute.

     No failure or delay on the part of JMB in the exercise of any right
or remedy hereunder or under any other instrument or otherwise shall
operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of
any such right or remedy preclude other or further exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other right or remedy.

     The satisfaction or discharge of any part of the Liabilities shall
not in any way satisfy or discharge this Assignment, but this Assignment
shall remain in full force and effect as long as any amount remains unpaid
or any monetary obligation remains unperformed on or with respect to any
such Liabilities.

     Wherever possible, each provision of this Assignment shall be
interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable
law, but if, for any reason whatsoever, any one or more of the provisions
of this Assignment shall be held or deemed to be inoperative, unenforceable
or invalid as applied to any particular case or cases in any particular
jurisdiction or jurisdictions or in all jurisdictions or in all cases, such
circumstances shall not have the effect of rendering such provision
inoperative, unenforceable or invalid in any other jurisdiction or in any
other case or of rendering any of the other provisions of this Assignment
inoperative, unenforceable or invalid.

     This Assignment shall be a contract made under and governed by the
laws of the State of Illinois.

     All notices under this Assignment shall be in writing and shall have
been deemed to have been given when delivered personally or on the third
Business Day following the day when deposited in the United States mail,
postage prepaid, addressed to either party at its address set forth above,
to the attention of, in the case of JMB, H. Rigel Barber and, in the case
of Borrower, Stuart Nathan.

     This Assignment shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns and, without
limiting the foregoing, all rights and powers hereunder or with respect
hereto of JMB, or any agent or representative of JMB, may be exercised by
any successor or assignee of JMB, including any party to whom JMB sells a
participation interest herein, or any agent or representative of such
successor or assignee; provided, however, that all notices and directions
to 245 or any of the O & Y Partners hereunder shall be made only by JMB and
not by any holder of a participation interest in the loans referenced
herein.  

     This Assignment may be executed in any number of counterparts, each
of which shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which shall together
constitute but one and the same instrument.

     11.  Exculpation.  Notwithstanding anything herein contained to the
contrary, JMB agrees (for itself and any subsequent holder of this
Assignment) that (1) all liability with respect to the debt secured by this
Assignment, or any of the other documents executed and delivered by
Borrower in connection herewith shall be satisfied only out of the assets
of Borrower and that no present or future constituent partner (i.e. person
holding an equity interest) in or any agent of the Borrower, nor any
officer, shareholder, director, employee, trustee, beneficiary or agent of
any corporation or trust that is or becomes a constituent partner in
Borrower (including, but not limited to, persons executing documents or
certificates on behalf of Borrower) shall have personal liability (either
directly or indirectly), all such personal liability being expressly waived
by JMB and (2) in no event shall a negative capital account or any other
funding obligations of any constituent partner in Borrower be deemed to be
an asset or the property of Borrower and neither JMB nor any subsequent
holder of this document shall have any right to collect, enforce or proceed
against or with respect to any such negative capital account or partner's
obligations.  

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Assignment has been duly executed as of the
day and year first above written.

            NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants of the
parties and for other good and sufficient consideration, the adequacy of
which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:
            1.    Notwithstanding the commencement and prosecution of the
Chapter 11 Cases by the O&Y U.S. Parties, any contrary provisions of the
Partnership Agreement or any provision of law which, absent this agreement,
would be to the contrary, the commencement and prosecution of the Chapter
11 Cases by the O&Y U.S. Companies shall not cause a dissolution of the
Partnership, and the parties agree to the continuation of the Partnership
on the terms and conditions of the Partnership Agreement, as the same are
modified herein, subject to the conditions stated in paragraph 2 of this
agreement.
            2.    Termination Events:
            a.    In the event that the Bankruptcy Court:
                  i.    directs the appointment of a Chapter 11 trustee in
any of the Chapter 11 Cases.
                  ii.   enters an order for relief under Chapter 7 of Title
11 of the U.S. Code in any of the Chapter 11 Cases, or
                  iii.  dismisses any of the Chapter 11 Cases,
      then this agreement shall be null and void each time that one of the
aforementioned termination events takes place, unless waived, at JMB's
exclusive option, by written notice by JMB to the O&Y U.S. Parties within
thirty days after the aforementioned termination event.  JMB's waiver of
any termination event does not constitute a waiver of any subsequent
termination event.
            b.    In the event that the O&Y U.S. Parties do not commence
the Chapter 11 Cases on or before 5:00 p.m. E.D.T. October 16, 1995, then

In the event that this agreement shall become null and void, the parties
hereto shall retain any rights, duties, defenses and privileges that they
would have had under the Partnership Agreement absent the modifications
made in this agreement, and unless all of the partes hereto agree
otherwise, there shall exist a dissolution event under paragraph 8.1.A of
the Partnership Agreement as of the Date that this agreement becomes null
and void.
            3.    Consistent with paragraph 1 and subject to the provisions
of paragraph 2 hereof, Section 8.1.A of the Partnership Agreement is
amended to exclude from the meaning of the term "bankruptcy" as used
therein, and Section 8.3 of the Partnership Agreement is amended to exclude
from the definition of "bankruptcy" contained therein, the commencement of
the Chapter 11 Cases for so long as this agreement remains in effect.
            4.    Except as herein modified, the Partnership Agreement
shall remain in full force and effect and is hereby confirmed, and no party
hereto has waived or altered any of its rights thereunder.  Nothing in this
agreement shall constitute an admission, waiver or estoppel by any party
hereto that JMB's consent was required to any of the modifications or
amendments described in clause six of the first recital, or that JMB in
fact consented, if such consent was required, to the modifications or
amendments described in clause six of the first recital.
            5.    This agreement may be executed and delivered in two or
more counterparts, regardless of whether any party has executed more than
one counterpart of the number of parties executing any counterpart, but all 
such counterparts together shall be one and the same agreement.  The parties 
may execute and deliver counterparts of this agreement by facsimile 
transmission.
      IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed and delivered
