indicative of the results expected for the full year.

   PBP is not being paid on a current basis for general and administrative
expenses other than printing costs. During the three months ended March 31,
1997, PBP was reimbursed $50,000 which was applied to prior years' general and
administrative expenses due. At March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996, the total
liability outstanding to PBP was approximately $675,000 and $705,000,
respectively. At March 31, 1997, the total liability outstanding to Glenborough
was approximately $18,000.
 
   The Partnership maintains an account with the Prudential Institutional
Liquidity Portfolio Fund, an affiliate of PBP, for investment of its available
cash in short-term instruments pursuant to the guidelines established by the
Partnership Agreement.
 
   Prudential Securities Incorporated ('PSI'), an affiliate of PBP, owns 180
depositary units at March 31, 1997.

      ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                           AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
   The Partnership generated cash from operations of $454,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 1997. During the three months ended March 31, 1997, the
Partnership incurred approximately $219,000 for building and tenant
improvements, primarily at the Montrose Office Park, Poplar Towers and Park
Plaza properties. In order to keep the properties competitive, building and
tenant improvements will continue to be required.
 
   The Partnership had cash of approximately $932,000 at March 31, 1997. PBP is
not being reimbursed for its general and administrative expenses (other than
printing) on a current basis; however, a payment for past due amounts of $50,000
was made in the first quarter of 1997. At March 31, 1997, the total liability
outstanding (including printing) was approximately $675,000. Cash on hand plus
any cash generated from operations may not be sufficient to fund building and
tenant improvements and to pay deferred general and administrative expenses.
 
   The General Partners continue to evaluate all of the properties' prospects
for eventual sale. It is unlikely that investors will be returned a significant
portion of their original investment upon the sale of the properties and
ultimate dissolution of the Partnership.
 
Results of Operations
 
   The Partnership's net loss decreased by approximately $47,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 1997 as compared to the corresponding period in 1996 for
the reasons discussed below.
 
   Property operating revenues increased by approximately $91,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 1997 as compared to the corresponding period in 1996 as
increases in Montrose, Poplar Towers, Gateway, and Totem Valley more than offset
the decrease at the Park Plaza property. The increase in operating revenues were
primarily the result of increased occupancies at the properties.
 
   Recovery of expenses decreased by approximately $29,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 1997 as compared to the corresponding period in 1996 primarily
due to lower tenant recoveries at the Montrose property as a result of new
tenant leases.
 
   Property operating expenses decreased by $41,000 for the three months ended
March 31, 1997 as compared to the corresponding period in 1996 due primarily to
decreases in property taxes and general repairs and maintenance.
 
   Depreciation and amortization increased by approximately $72,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 1997 as compared to the corresponding period in
1996 due to increased building and tenant improvement additions.
