                                  (UNAUDITED)


1. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have
   been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
   Exchange Commission.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally
   included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
   accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to
   such rules and regulations, although management believes that the disclosures
   contained herein are adequate to make the information presented not
   misleading.  These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
   should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes
   appearing in the Partnership's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
   1994.


2. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed
   consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of only
   normal accruals, necessary to present fairly the Partnership's financial
   position at September 30, 1995, the results of operations for the three and
   nine months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994 and cash flows for the nine
   months then ended.


3. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30,
   1995 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the
   full year.

                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Results of Operations:
- ----------------------

THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1995 COMPARED TO THREE AND NINE MONTHS
ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1994:

   The Partnership's net income was $751,000 and $671,000 for the nine months
ended September 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively, representing an increase of
$80,000.  This increase was primarily due to increased property operating
results combined with an increase in interest income, partially offset by
increased administrative expenses and minority interest in income for those
properties held in joint venture with Storage Equities, Inc. ("SEI").  Net
income was $235,000 and $326,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1995
and 1994, respectively, representing a decrease of $91,000.  This decrease is
primarily due to increases in depreciation expense and minority interest in
income for those properties held in joint venture with SEI.

   Net property income for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 was
$6,029,000 compared to $5,821,000 for the same period in 1994, representing an
increase of $208,000, or 4%. Net property income for the three months ended
September 30, 1995 was $2,039,000 compared to $2,037,000 for the same period in
1994, representing an increase of $2,000.

   Rental income for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 was $10,858,000
compared to $10,389,000 for the same period in 1994, representing an increase
of $469,000, or 5%.  Rental income for the three months ended September 30, 1995
was $3,683,000 compared to $3,577,000 for the same period in 1994, representing
an increase of $106,000, or 3%.

   The increases in rental income for both the three and nine months were the
result of increased average realized rental rates at the Partnership's mini-
warhouse and business park facilities, combined with increased occupancy levels
at the business park facilities partially offset by a decrease in occupancy
levels at the mini-warehouse facilities.  The weighted average occupancy levels
at the mini-warehouse and business park facilities were 89% and 97%,
respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 compared to 90% and
95% respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 1994.  The monthly
average realized rent per square foot for the mini-warehouse and business park
facilities was $.57 and $.89, respectively, for the nine months ended September
30, 1995 and $.55 and $.81, respectively, for the nine months ended September
30, 1994.

                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


   Cost of operations (including management fees) was $4,829,000 and $4,568,000
for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively,
representing an increase of $261,000.  Cost of operations (including management
fees) was $1,644,000 and $1,540,000 for the three months ended September 30,
1995 and 1994, respectively, representing an increase of $104,000.  These
increases were primarily attributable to increases in property tax, commercial,
and repair and maintenance expenses.

   Net property income at the Partnership's mini-warehouse facilities for the
nine months ended September 30, 1995  increased $58,000 and $31,000 for the
three months ended September 30, 1995 as compared to the same periods in 1994.
For the nine months, rental income at the mini-warehouse facilities increased
$226,000, or 3%, from $8,104,000 in 1994 to $8,330,000 in 1995.  For the three
months, rental income at the mini-warehouse facilities increased $54,000, or 2%
from $2,818,000 in 1994 to $2,872,000 in 1995.

   Cost of operations (including management fees) at the mini-warehouse
facilities was $3,253,000 and $3,085,000 for the nine months ended September 30,
1995 and 1994, respectively, representing an increase of $168,000.  Cost of
operations (including management fees) at the mini-warehouse facilities was
$1,084,000 and $1,061,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1995 and
1994, respectively, representing an increase of $23,000.

   Net property income at the Partnership's business park facilities for the
nine months ended September 30, 1995  increased $150,000 and decreased $29,000
for the three months ended September 30, 1995 as compared to the same periods in
1994.  For the nine months, rental income at the business parks increased
$243,000, or 11%, from $2,285,000 in 1994 to $2,528,000 in 1995.  The increase
in rental income at the business park facilities is principally due to the
buyout of a lease ($146,000) during 1995 by a tenant which vacated its leased
space prior to the termination of the lease at one of the facilities.  For the
three months, rental income at the business parks increased $52,000, or 7%, from
$759,000 in 1994 to $811,000 in 1995.

   Cost of operations (including management fees) at the business parks was
$1,576,000 and $1,483,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994,
respectively, representing an

increase of $93,000. Cost of operations (including management fees) was $560,000
and $479,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994,
respectively, representing an increase of $81,000

   Administrative expenses increased from $104,000 in 1994 to $138,000 in 1995
or $34,000.  This increase is principally a result of non-recurring expenses
totaling $30,000 incurred in connection with having the Partnership's facilities
undergo environmental studies.

   Minority interest in income increased $79,000 to $2,807,000 from $2,728,000
for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively.  This
increase was primarily attributable to increased operations at the Partnership's
real estate facilities for those properties owned jointly with SEI.


Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

   The Partnership has adequate sources of cash to finance its operations, both
on a short-term and long-term basis, primarily from internally generated cash
from property operations and cash reserves. Cash generated from operations
($6,075,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1995) has been sufficient to
meet all current obligations of the Partnership.

   During 1995, the Partnership anticipates approximately $806,000 of capital
improvements (of which $327,000 represents SEI's joint venture share).  Total
capital improvements were $648,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1995
of which $387,000 represents the Partnership's share.

   The Partnership paid distributions to the limited and general partners
totaling $3,473,000 ($27.14 per unit) and $424,000, respectively, during the
first nine months of 1995, including a special distribution in the third
quarter.  The special distribution, totaling $801,000 ($6.26 per unit) to the
limited partners and $98,000 to the general partners, was the result of
distributions of excess cash reserves.  Future distribution rates may be
adjusted to levels which are supported by operating cash flow after capital
improvements and any other necessary obligations.
