                   AND CONSOLIDATED VENTURES

          NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                  SEPTEMBER 30, 1998 AND 1997

                          (UNAUDITED)

GENERAL

     Readers of this quarterly report should refer to the Partnership's
audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1997
which are included in the Partnership's 1997 Annual Report, as certain
footnote disclosures which would substantially duplicate those contained in
such audited financial statements have been omitted from this report.

     The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP
requires the Partnership to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported or disclosed amount of assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those
estimates.

     The Partnership adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 121 ("SFAS 121") "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of" as required in the first
quarter of 1996.  The Partnership's policy is to consider a property to be
held for sale or disposition when the Partnership has committed to a plan
to sell or dispose of such property and active marketing activity has
commenced or is expected to commence in the near term.  In accordance with
SFAS 121, any properties identified as "held for sale or disposition" are
no longer depreciated.

     As of September 30, 1998, the Partnership and its consolidated
ventures have or have previously committed to plans to sell or dispose of
all their remaining investment properties.  Accordingly, all consolidated
properties have been classified as held for sale or disposition in the
accompanying consolidated financial statements as of the respective date of
such plan's adoption.  The results of operations, net of venture partners'
share, for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997 for
consolidated properties classified as held for sale or disposition or sold
or disposed of during the past two years were $3,114,557 and $4,262,704,
respectively.  In addition, the accompanying consolidated financial
statements include $551,355 and $1,124,370, respectively, of the
Partnership's share of total property operations of $1,102,710 and
$2,248,741 for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997,
respectively, for unconsolidated properties which are held for sale or
disposition or have been sold or disposed of during the past two years.

TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

     The Partnership, pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, is permitted
to engage in various transactions involving the Managing General Partner
and its affiliates, including the reimbursement for salaries and salary-
related expenses of its employees, certain of its officers, and other
direct expenses relating to the administration of the Partnership and the
operation of the Partnership's investments.  Fees, commissions and other
expenses required to be paid by the Partnership to the General Partners and
their affiliates as of September 30, 1998 and for the nine months ended
September 30, 1998 and 1997 were as follows:

                                                   Unpaid at  
                                                 September 30,

                            --------   -------       ------   
                            $105,654   128,350       35,109   
                            ========   =======       ======   

     Certain of the Partnership's properties were managed by affiliates of
the General Partners or their assignees for fees computed as a percentage
of certain rents received by the properties.

     During 1994, certain officers and directors of the Managing General
Partner acquired interests in a company which provides certain property
management services to a property that was owned by a venture in which the
Partnership owns an interest.  The fees earned by such company from such
venture attributable to the Partnership for the nine months ended
September 30, 1998 and 1997 were approximately $5,400 and $23,474,
respectively, all of which has been paid at September 30, 1998.  As such
property has been sold, no further fees are expected to be paid by such
venture to such company.

     In accordance with the subordination requirements of the Partnership
Agreement, the General Partners have deferred payment of their
distributions of net cash flow from the Partnership.  The amount of such
deferred distributions was approximately $8,790,000 as of September 30,
1998.  The Partnership does not expect that the subordination requirements
of the Partnership Agreement will be satisfied to permit payment of the
majority of these amounts.  These amounts do not bear interest.

40 BROAD STREET

     On December 30, 1997, the Partnership, through a joint venture
partnership (the "Affiliated Joint Venture") with JMB Income Properties,
Ltd. - X (a partnership sponsored by the Managing General Partner of the
Partnership), sold the land, building, related improvements and personal
property of the 40 Broad Street office building to an unaffiliated third
party for a sale price of $34,735,000 (before selling costs).  The sale
resulted in a gain of $20,532,803 (due to provisions for value impairment
totaling approximately $52,000,000 recorded in 1990 and 1991, of which the
Partnership's share was approximately $35,651,000), of which the
Partnership's share was $14,077,289 and a loss of $9,703,264, of which the
Partnership's share was $6,652,557 in 1997 for financial reporting and
Federal income tax purposes, respectively.  In addition, in connection with
the sale of the property, as is customary in such transactions, the
Affiliated Joint Venture agreed to certain representations, warranties and


<PAGE>


covenants with a stipulated survival period that expires December 1, 1998. 
Although it is not expected, the Affiliated Joint Venture may ultimately
have some liability under such representations, warranties and covenants,
but such liability has been limited in the sale agreement to actual damages
in an amount not to exceed $1,500,000 in the aggregate, of which the
Partnership's share is limited to $1,028,400.

SAN JOSE

     On February 24, 1998, the joint venture that owned the property ("San
Jose") sold the land, buildings, related improvements and personal property
of the remaining assets of the Park Center Financial Plaza office complex
to an unaffiliated third party for a sale price of $76,195,000 (before
selling costs and prorations).  San Jose received approximately $49,537,000
of net sale proceeds at closing (of which the Partnership's share was
approximately $24,768,500), after the repayment by San Jose of the mortgage
loans secured by the 170 Almaden, 150 Almaden and 185 Park Avenue buildings
with a balance of approximately $23,281,000, loan prepayment premiums of
approximately $2,422,000 and closing costs.  The sale resulted in a gain in
1998 of approximately $41,654,000 and $22,600,000 for financial reporting
and Federal income tax purposes, respectively, of which approximately
$20,827,000 and $11,300,000 of gain was allocated to the Partnership,
respectively.  The gain for financial reporting purposes includes the
effects of previously recorded provisions for value impairment for all
buildings in the complex of approximately $24,600,000, of which the
Partnership's share was approximately $12,300,000.  In connection with the
sale, San Jose recorded in 1998 an extraordinary loss for financial
reporting purposes totaling approximately $2,518,000 as a result of loan
prepayment premiums of approximately $2,422,000 and the write-off of the
deferred mortgage balance of approximately $96,000, of which the
Partnership's share is approximately $1,211,000 and $48,000, respectively. 
In addition, in connection with the sale of the property, as is customary
in such transactions, San Jose agreed to certain representations,
warranties and covenants with a stipulated survival period that expires
November 15, 1998.  Although it is not expected, San Jose may ultimately
have some liability under such representations, warranties and covenants,
but such liability has been limited in the sale agreement to actual damages
in an amount not to exceed $2,500,000 in the aggregate, of which the
Partnership's share is limited to $1,250,000.

PLAZA HERMOSA SHOPPING CENTER

     On January 13, 1998, the Partnership sold the land, building and
related improvements of the Plaza Hermosa Shopping Center to an
unaffiliated third party for a sale price of $13,335,000 (before selling
costs and prorations).  The Partnership received approximately $6,500,000
of net sale proceeds at closing, after the repayment by the Partnership of
the property's bond financing with a balance of $6,400,000 and closing
costs.  The sale resulted in a gain in 1998 of approximately $3,947,000 and
$2,356,000 for financial reporting and Federal income tax purposes,
respectively, all of which is allocable to the Partnership.  In connection
with the sale of the property, as is customary in such transactions, the
Partnership agreed to certain representations, warranties and covenants
with a stipulated survival period which expired, with no liability to the
Partnership, on September 15, 1998.

TOPANGA PLAZA

     Montgomery Ward, a major department store which owns its own facility,
filed for bankruptcy protection pursuant to Chapter 11 of the Federal
bankruptcy code on July 7, 1997.  The store continues to operate and
fulfill its obligations under its operating agreement.  The joint venture
that owns the shopping center ("Topanga") is considering the possibility of
purchasing the Wards store to protect the value of the shopping center and
the Partnership has reserved cash to fund its portion of any purchase, if
necessary.  However, there is no assurance that any such transaction will
occur.



<PAGE>


     In October, 1998, Topanga made a distribution of operating cash flow
for 1998 of $1,200,000 of which the Partnership's share was $696,000.

     The Topanga venture committed to a plan to sell the property and
therefore classified the property as held for sale as of December 31, 1996.

The property has no longer been subject to continued depreciation beyond
such date.

     The Partnership has reached an agreement in principle with the joint
venture partner whereby the joint venture partner would purchase the
Partnership's interest in Topanga.  If such sale is consummated, it is
expected to be completed in the second half of November, 1998 and, if sold
under the proposed terms, would result in a gain for financial reporting
and Federal income tax purposes.  There can be no assurance that a sale
will be consummated on these or any terms.

     In the opinion of the Managing General Partner, all adjustments (con-
sisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair
presentation have been made to the accompanying figures as of September 30,
1998 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997.

PART I.  FINANCIAL INFORMATION

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

     Reference is made to the notes to the accompanying financial
statements for additional information concerning certain of the
Partnership's investments.

     The board of directors of JMB Realty Corporation ("JMB") the managing
general partner of the Partnership, has established a special committee
(the "Special Committee") consisting of certain directors of JMB to deal
with all matters relating to tender offers for Interests in the
Partnership, including any and all responses to such tender offers.  The
Special Committee has retained independent counsel to advise it in
connection with any potential tender offers for Interests and has retained
Lehman Brothers Inc. as financial advisor to assist the Special Committee
in evaluating and responding to any additional potential tender offers for
Interests.

     During 1997 and early 1998, some of the Limited Partners in the
Partnership received from unaffiliated third parties unsolicited tender
offers to purchase up to 4.9% of the Interests in the Partnership at
between $65 and $475 per Interest.  The Partnership recommended against
acceptance of these offers on the basis that, among other things, the offer
prices were inadequate.  All of such offers have expired.  As of the date
of this report, the Partnership is aware that 8.34% of the Interests have
been purchased by such unaffiliated third parties either pursuant to such
tender offers or through negotiated purchases.  It is possible that other
offers for Interests may be made by unaffiliated third parties in the
future, although there is no assurance that any other third party will
commence an offer for Interests, the terms of any such offer or whether any
such offer, if made, will be consummated, amended or withdrawn.

     As of September 30, 1998, the Partnership had consolidated cash and
cash equivalents of approximately $23,557,000 of which approximately
$19,501,000 is held by the Partnership.  Of the remaining $4,056,000 (held
by the Partnership's consolidated joint ventures), approximately $2,578,000
represents the Partnership's share of undistributed cash.  During October
1998, $696,000 of such previously undistributed cash was received from the
Topanga venture.  Additionally, the Partnership's share of cash held by its
unconsolidated venture is approximately $1,600,000.  These funds are
available for distribution to partners, potential obligations related to
representations and warranties given pursuant to the sales of investment
properties in 1997 and 1998 as more fully described in the Notes, tenant
and capital improvements, leasing commissions, and other expenditures,
including the Partnership's share of the costs associated with a possible
expansion and mall enhancement, including a possible purchase of the
Montgomery Ward store, at the Topanga Plaza Shopping Center.

     In November 1998, the Partnership expects to make a semi-annual
distribution of cash generated from operations of $5 per Interest.  Future
distributions from sales or property operations are expected to be through
cash generated by the Partnership's remaining investment property and
through the sale of such investment.

     The General Partners of the Partnership expect to be able to conduct
an orderly liquidation of its remaining investment property as quickly as
practicable.  Therefore, the affairs of the Partnership are expected to be
wound up no later than December 31, 1999, possibly in 1998, barring
unforeseen economic developments.  The Partnership has reached an agreement
in principle with its joint venture partner to purchase the Partnership's
interest in Topanga Plaza in 1998.  If such sale is consummated, the
Partnership expects to proceed to terminate its affairs no later than
December 31, 1998.  However, there can be no assurance that a sale will be
consummated on these or any terms.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     Significant variances between periods reflected in the accompanying
consolidated financial statements not otherwise reported are primarily the
result of the sales of the 40 Broad Street office building and the Plaza
Hermosa Shopping Center in December 1997 and January 1998, respectively.

     The decrease in investment in unconsolidated ventures, at equity at
September 30, 1998 as compared to December 31, 1997 is primarily due to the
sale in February 1998 of the Park Center Financial Plaza investment
property.  The remaining balance of approximately $1,473,000 represents
primarily the Partnership's share of remaining undistributed cash generated
from operations.

     The increase in interest income for the nine months ended September
30, 1998 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1997 is
primarily due to the temporary investment of proceeds related to the 1997
sale of the 40 Broad Street office building and the 1998 sale of the Plaza
Hermosa Shopping Center, which proceeds were subsequently distributed to
the Limited Partners in February and May 1998, respectively.

     The gain on sale of investment property of $3,947,247 in 1998 is the
gain on the sale of the Plaza Hermosa investment property in January 1998.

     The decrease in depreciation expense for the nine months ended
September 30, 1998 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1997
is primarily due to the 40 Broad Street investment property being
identified as held for sale or disposition as of July 1, 1997, and
therefore, no longer subject to depreciation beyond such date.

     The decrease in the Partnership's share of operations of
unconsolidated venture for the three and nine months ended September 30,
1998 as compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997 is
primarily due to the sale of the remaining assets of the Park Center
Financial Plaza office complex in February 1998.

     The Partnership's share of gain on sale of investment properties from
unconsolidated venture of $20,826,930 in 1998 is due to the gain recognized
on the sale of the remaining assets of the Park Center Financial Plaza
investment property in February 1998.

     The Partnership's share of extraordinary loss from unconsolidated
venture of $1,259,118 in 1998 comprises loan prepayment premiums of
$1,211,062 and the write-off of the deferred mortgage balance of $48,056
resulting from the sale of the Park Center Financial Plaza investment
property in February 1998.
