Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
- ----------------------------------------------
The unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
Partnership's annual 1995 audited financial statements within Form 10-K.

The unaudited financial statements include all adjustments which are, in the
opinion of management, necessary to present a fair statement of financial
position as of May 31, 1996 and the results of operations for the three and six
months ended May 31, 1996 and 1995, and cash flows for the six months ended May
31, 1996 and 1995, and the statement of changes in partners' capital (deficit)
for the six months ended May 31, 1996. Results of operations for the period are
not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

No significant events have occurred subsequent to fiscal year 1995, and no
material contingencies exist which would require disclosure in this interim
report per Regulation S-X, Rule 10 01, Paragraph (a)(5).



Part I, Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
                and Results of Operations

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Since the full amount of units offered was not sold, insufficient funds were
raised to meet the Partnership's commitments with respect to the acquisition
and lease-up of the properties.  In order to meet these commitments, the
General Partners have postponed reimbursement of certain fees and expenses.
Cash flow from operations is being utilized to service the mortgage debt
secured by Crosswest Office Center ("Crosswest").  Pursuant to the terms of the
mortgage loan, cash flow in excess of debt service is held in escrow to fund
future leasing and capital obligations.  As a result, cash distributions are
not currently being paid to investors and no further cash distributions will be
made until the Partnership is generating sufficient cash flow in excess of
these requirements.

The Partnership had cash and cash equivalents at May 31, 1996 of $1,410,217,
compared with $859,541 at November 30, 1995. The increase is primarily
attributable to net cash from operating activities exceeding debt service and
additions to real estate. At May 31, 1996, the Partnership also had a
restricted cash balance of $505,999 compared with $769,775 at November 30,
1995. The decrease reflects the transfer of funds from the building lockbox
escrow account to the Partnership's operating cash account, pursuant to the
terms of the mortgage agreement, in addition to the payment of local real
estate taxes.  The restricted cash balance at May 31, 1996 consisted of $40,582
reserved to fund real estate taxes at Crosswest, $425,504 representing the
building lockbox escrow and security deposits of $39,913. Accounts payable and
accrued expenses totaled $320,189 at May 31, 1996 compared with $423,101 at
November 30, 1995.  The decrease is primarily attributable to the timing of
payments and required accruals.  The Partnership's cash balance, along with
funds generated by operating activities, are expected to provide sufficient
liquidity to enable the Partnership to meet its operating expenses.

At Crosswest Office Center, during the 1996 second quarter, the General
Partners executed a new five-year lease with a tenant for 2,394 square feet.
Additionally, a lease with a tenant, occupying 2,240 square feet, scheduled to
expire in October 1996, was extended for two and a half years.  Two leases
representing 1,296 square feet are scheduled to expire during the remainder of
the 1996.

Results of Operations

Partnership operations resulted in a net loss of $16,542 and $80,309, including
depreciation and amortization, for the three and six months ended May 31, 1996,
respectively, compared with a net loss of $90,246 and $149,177 for the three
and six months ended May 31, 1995, respectively.  The lower losses for the 1996
periods are primarily attributable to an increase in rental income.

Rental income totaled $667,143 and $1,329,290 for the three and six months
ended May 31, 1996, respectively, compared with $613,247 and $1,238,156 for the
three and six months ended May 31, 1995, respectively.  The higher rental
income in 1996 is largely due to an increase in base rent resulting from higher
occupancy and increased rental rates, partially offset by a decrease in
deferred rent.  Interest income totaled $19,078 and $37,497 for the three and
six months ended May 31, 1996 compared with $12,950 and $24,062 for the
comparable periods in 1995.  The increases reflect the Partnership's higher
cash balance for the 1996 periods.

Property operating expenses were relatively unchanged and totaled $287,424 and
$608,815 for the three and six months ended May 31, 1996, respectively,
compared with $302,608 and $583,201 for the comparable periods in 1995.

As of May 31, 1996, Crosswest was 100% leased, compared to 97% as of May
31,1995.

                        (27) Financial Data Schedule

                (b)  Reports on Form 8-K - On March 15, 1996, based upon, among
                other things, the advice of Partnership counsel, Skadden, Arps,
                Slate, Meagher & Flom, the General Partner adopted a resolution
                that states, among other things, if a Change of Control (as
                defined below) occurs, the General Partner may distribute the
                Partnership's cash balances not required for its ordinary
                course day-to-day operations. "Change of Control" means any
                purchase or offer to purchase more than 10% of the Units that
                is not approved in advance by the General Partner. In
                determining the amount of the distribution, the General Partner
                may take into account all material factors.  In addition, the
                Partnership will not be obligated to make any distribution to
                any partner and no partner will be entitled to receive any
                distribution until the General Partner has declared the
                distribution and established a record date and distribution
                date for the distribution. The Partnership filed a Form 8-K
                disclosing this resolution on March 21, 1996.
