Notes to the Financial Statements
- - ----------------------------------
The unaudited interim 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 March 31, 1996 and the results of operations and cash flows for
the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995 and the statement of partners'
capital for the three months ended March 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
- - -------------------------------
At March 31, 1996, the Partnership had cash and cash equivalents totaling
$682,989 relatively unchanged from $676,893 at December 31, 1995.  The cash and
cash equivalents balance includes a working capital reserve to cover
anticipated costs associated with the lease-up of vacant space at Atrium I.

Atrium I was 85% leased at March 31, 1996, compared to 84% at March 31, 1995.
As previously reported, a tenant leasing 6,837 square feet vacated its space
upon expiration of its lease on March 31, 1996.  During the quarter, one tenant
executed a six year lease renewal and expanded its space by an additional 1,953
square feet, and now leases a total of 11,460 square feet. Another tenant
extended its lease for four years and decreased its space by 1,535 square feet
for a total of 4,770 square feet. Additionally, on April 15, 1996 an existing
tenant extended its lease for an additional five years and took an additional
9,419 square feet.  This tenant now occupies 13,833 square feet.  A lease with
a tenant representing 11,674 square feet or approximately 12% of the Property's
total leasable area, is scheduled to expire in September 1996.

Deferred rent receivable totaled $113,224 at March 31, 1996 compared with
$141,390 at December 31, 1995.  The decrease is primarily attributable to the
amortization of rental concessions and step rents included in certain leases at
Atrium I.

Accounts payable and accrued expenses increased to $94,359 at March 31, 1996
from $70,619 at December 31, 1995.  The increase is primarily attributable to
the timing of the payment of property operating expenses.

After reviewing the Partnership's operations for the 1996 first quarter, the
General Partner determined that an adequate cash reserve exists to fund
anticipated tenant improvements and leasing commission costs associated with
leasing efforts at Atrium, and a cash distribution to the Limited Partners.
Accordingly, a cash distribution in the amount of $3 per Unit will be paid to
Limited Partners in May 1996.  As a result of an expected increase in
tenant improvement expenses and leasing commissions associated with several
recent lease renewals and expansions, and the possibility that a new 8,000
square foot lease may be executed in the near-term, the General Partner will
find it necessary to suspend distributions beginning with the second quarter of
1996.

Results of Operations
- - ---------------------
Operations resulted in net income of $1,727 for the three months ended March
31, 1996 compared with $60,107 for the same period in 1995.  The decrease is
primarily attributable to lower tenant expense reimbursements and higher
property operating expenses, partially offset by higher rental income.

Rental income increased to $334,711 for the three months ended March 31, 1996
from $311,840 for the respective period in 1995, primarily due to higher rental
rates and average occupancy. Due to a decrease in utility reimbursements and
the timing of payments from tenants, the Property was required to issue a
credit totaling $2,938 for the three months ended March 31, 1996, versus
collecting $41,019 in tenant reimbursements for the comparable period in 1995.
Property operating expenses consist primarily of on-site personnel expenses,
utility costs, repair and maintenance costs, property management fees,
insurance and real estate taxes.  Property operating expenses totaled
$196,335 for the three months ended March 31, 1996 compared to $165,365 for the
same period in 1995.  The increase is primarily attributable  to higher snow
removal and electric utility expenses during the unusually harsh winter season.

                           (27) Financial Data Schedule

                (b)  Reports on Form 8-K -

                On February 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-today 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 February 23, 1996.
