ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

Results of Operations

   For the three months ended March 31, 1996, the Partnership realized net
income of $577,958 compared to net income of $454,360 for the three months ended
March 31, 1995.  The increase in net income was primarily due to increased
rental operations at Shallowford Corners Shopping Center and Perimeter Square. 
The increase at Shallowford Corners was due to several new tenants moving in
since March 1995 at higher base rents.  The increase at Perimeter Square was the
result of an increase in tenant reimbursements over the first quarter of 1995. 
Partially offsetting the increase in rental revenues was a decrease in interest
income directly related to a decrease in the average balance of short-term
investments outstanding for the period ended March 31, 1996, compared to the
corresponding period of 1995.  Partnership operations were otherwise comparable
for the periods ended March 31, 1996 and 1995.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

   At March 31, 1996, the partnership had cash on hand (including shares of
money market funds and certificates of deposit) of $2,803,112.  The present cash
reserves of the Partnership are believed to be sufficient to meet the
foreseeable needs of the Partnership.

   Occupancy at Shallowford Corners Shopping Center was approximately 88% for
the three months ended March 31, 1996.  Management has made a number of physical
improvements to this property from operating cash and is marketing the center
for sale.  The Perimeter Square Shopping Center was 94% occupied for the quarter
ended March 31, 1996.  Both the Tucson Hotel and Green Valley Hotel are
performing in line with  expectations.

   Management has executed an agreement to install a sprinkler system at the
Green Valley Hotel located in Arizona.  The estimated cost is approximately
$132,000.  The  installation costs will be funded from existing cash reserves.

   Other than the items referred to above, the Partnership has not entered into
any material commitments for capital expenditures at any of its properties as of
March 31, 1996.  In February 1996, the Partnership paid a distribution of $10
per partnership interest, totalling $599,050, from existing cash reserves.
