1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     In the opinion of C.R.I., Inc. (CRI), the Managing General Partner, the
accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Capital Income
Properties-C Limited Partnership (the Partnership) contain all adjustments of a
normal recurring nature necessary to present fairly the Partnership's
consolidated financial position as of March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996 and
the results of its consolidated operations for the three months ended March 31,
1997 and 1996 and its consolidated cash flows for the three months ended March
31, 1997 and 1996.

     These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
have been condensed or omitted.  While CRI believes that the disclosures
presented are adequate to make the information not misleading, it is suggested
that these consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements and the notes included in the Partnership's
annual report filed on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996.

     Certain amounts in the 1996 financial statements have been reclassified to
conform to the 1997 presentation.  The results for the three months in the
period ended March 31, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results
expected for the entire year.

2.   THE PARTNERSHIP

     The Partnership, a District of Columbia limited partnership, was organized
as of December 15, 1984.  The purpose of the Partnership is to invest in real
estate by acquiring and holding a limited partnership interest in Bethesda Metro
Center Limited Partnership (BMCLP).  BMCLP owns and operates a 381-room hotel
known as the Hyatt Regency Bethesda Hotel (the Hotel) and an office building
known as Bethesda Metro Office Building (the Office Building) located in
Bethesda, Maryland, containing approximately 336,000 square feet of net rentable
office space and approximately 18,000 square feet of net rentable retail space. 
In addition, attached to the structure is a parking facility for approximately
1,300 cars serving the entire development.

     CRI, as Managing General Partner of the Partnership, has a 0.01% general
partner interest.  Other general partner interests which total 0.99% are held by
three individuals affiliated (or formerly affiliated) with CRI.  The total
limited partner interest of 99% is comprised of 0.01% owned by CRICO-Bethesda
Growth Partners Limited Partnership, the affiliated Initial Limited Partner, and
the remaining 98.99% interest is widely held by unrelated parties.  On June 15,
1992, pursuant to a debt modification with BMCLP's former first mortgage lender,
C.R.C.C. of Bethesda, Inc. (CRCC) replaced the managing general partners of
BMCLP (unrelated parties hereinafter referred to as Special Limited Partners). 
Since CRCC is a wholly owned affiliate of CRI, the accompanying unaudited
financial statements as of March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996 and for each of
the three-month periods ended March 31, 1997 and 1996 have been consolidated
with BMCLP.

     Although an entity affiliated with the Partnership has assumed
responsibility for management of BMCLP and the Partnership has consolidated its

2.   THE PARTNERSHIP - Continued

interest therein in the accompanying financial statements, the Partnership has
not assumed responsibility for any past or future operating deficits of BMCLP. 
The deficit in partners' capital generated by activity at BMCLP remains the
obligation of the Special Limited Partners of BMCLP.

     Therefore, of the total partners  deficit of $71,303,239 and $75,464,637 as
of March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996, respectively, $71,087,773 and
$75,257,437, respectively, are not attributable to the partners of the
Partnership.  The amounts are comprised of cumulative BMCLP losses in excess of
the Partnership s investment in BMCLP as of June 15, 1992 of $77,472,839, and
cumulative net BMCLP income of $6,385,066, and $2,215,402 as of March 31, 1997
and December 31, 1996, respectively.  BMCLP losses subsequent to June 15, 1992,
have been consolidated into the operating accounts of the Partnership in the
accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

3.   INVESTMENT IN BETHESDA METRO CENTER LIMITED PARTNERSHIP

     The Partnership invested $42,500,100 in cash in BMCLP through March 31,
1997, to acquire a 92.5% limited partnership interest.  BMCLP losses before June
15, 1992, were not recorded in the accompanying financial statements of the
Partnership since cumulative BMCLP losses exceeded the Partnership's investment
in 1992.  Prior to June 15, 1992, the Partnership's investment in BMCLP was
accounted for under the equity method which prohibits the recognition of
investment losses in excess of the original investment.  However, subsequent to
June 15, 1992, the Partnership's investment in BMCLP has been consolidated in
the accompanying financial statements (see Note 2).

3.   INVESTMENT IN BETHESDA METRO CENTER LIMITED PARTNERSHIP - Continued

     On November 16, 1994, BMCLP's lender sold its first and second mortgage
notes (collectively, the Notes) to BMC Lender Partnership (BMC), an unaffiliated
entity.  BMC sold the first mortgage note to General Electric Capital
Corporation (GECC) which amended and restated the first mortgage note (the
Restated First Mortgage Note) to a principal amount of $48,000,000.  BMC amended
and restated the second mortgage note (the Restated Second Mortgage Note)
(collectively, the Restated Notes) to a principal amount of $10,000,000 advanced
at closing.

     The Restated First Mortgage Note requires monthly interest payments in
arrears, payable at 4.25% in excess of the GECC Composite Commercial Rate which
at March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996 was 5.47% and 5.53%, respectively.  In
addition to monthly interest payments, monthly principal payments are due in the
amount of $108,333.  Furthermore, if certain major tenants of the Office
Building, as defined in the Restated First Mortgage Note agreement, do not
exercise an option to renew or cancel their leases, additional principal
payments equal to 100% of net cash flow, as defined, must be remitted to GECC. 
These payments must continue until the space vacated is 93% rented and other
minimum financial conditions are met.  All unpaid principal is due at the
maturity date which is November 30, 2001.  Additional advances may be made by
GECC in an aggregate amount not to exceed 50% of all previously made principal
payments.  Any additional advances are generally intended to fund tenant
improvements, leasing costs and other capital improvements but may be used to
fund other cash flow needs as well.  During the three months ended March 31,
1997 and 1996, GECC advanced $176,171 and $0, respectively, to BMCLP for tenant
improvements.

     Additionally, under the terms of the Restated First Mortgage Note, an
interest reserve account to be used as additional collateral under the Restated
First Mortgage Note must be established.  Monthly payments of $23,125 must be
made into this reserve beginning January 1, 1995 through December 1, 1998.  As
of March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996, $624,375 and $555,000, respectively,
had been deposited into the interest reserve account and is reflected in
restricted cash and cash equivalents on the accompanying consolidated balance
sheet.

     The Restated Second Mortgage Note stipulates that 16% interest is payable
monthly from available cash flow, as defined, on a cumulative basis.  Based on
the provisions of the Restated Second Mortgage Note, BMCLP's cash flow from
operations shall be disbursed in the following priority:

     (a)  Debt service and reserves on the Restated First Mortgage Note.

     (b)  Establishment of working capital reserves of $50,000 plus an amount
          reasonably required to pay ordinary and necessary expenses of
          operations.

     (c)  Debt service on the Restated Second Mortgage Note, to the extent of
          available cash flow.

     (d)  Principal and interest on additional advances, as discussed below, if
          any, made to BMCLP by BMC.

     (e)  75% of the remaining net cash flow (as defined) to BMC and 25% of the
          remaining net cash flow to BMCLP (less up to $50,000 per year to cover
          management and administrative costs of the Partnership and/or CRCC),
          subject to the establishment of the reserves as stipulated in the
          agreement, as discussed below.

     Furthermore, BMC is entitled to an Economic Value Participation Interest
(as defined) which requires BMCLP to pay the following at the sale or
refinancing of the property or the maturity date of the Restated Notes:

     (a)  75% of the amount by which the Economic Value (as defined) of the
          Hotel and Office Building (the Development), up to $100 million,
          exceeds the unpaid principal balance and accrued interest under the
          Restated Notes, and

     (b)  50% of the Economic Value in excess of $100 million.

     In general, the Economic Value is defined by the Restated Second Mortgage
Note as the value of the Development as determined by the Partnership or the
average of three independent appraisals if deemed necessary by BMC.

     The Restated Second Mortgage Note is due on November 30, 2001 and no
principal payments are required until then.  However, any amounts remitted to
BMC with respect to its 75% net cash flow participation described above may be
re-advanced to BMCLP for payment of debt service on the Restated First Mortgage
Note, repairs, capital improvements, leasing commissions, tenant concessions and
improvements, taxes and ground lease payments.  These advances are limited to
75% of the total amount required to fund these items.  The remaining 25% must be
funded by BMCLP.  BMC has reserved the right, but does not have the obligation,
to make up to $5,000,000 in additional advances that would be secured under its
Restated Second Mortgage Note.  These additional advances would carry an
interest rate of 18% payable from available net cash flow, as defined, and would
also be due on November 30, 2001.  As of May 7, 1997, no additional advances
have been made.

     Additionally, under the terms of the Restated Second Mortgage Note, the
Partnership received working capital reserves as proceeds in connection with the
November 16, 1994 debt restructuring.  These funds are held by BMC in an escrow
account and can be used by BMCLP to fund any operating expenses without
limitation by demonstrating the need for such funds to BMC.  As of March 31,
1997 and December 31, 1996, balances in the escrow account totalled $273,654 and
$273,654, respectively.  

     In connection with the restructuring on November 16, 1994, the Third
Mortgage Note was amended to provide that interest is due and payable annually
only to the extent funds are available after taking into account payment of
amounts due and payable on the Restated Notes and a payment of up to $50,000 per
year to CRCC and/or the Partnership to cover costs of management and
administration.  Accrued but unpaid interest shall be deferred without interest
and be paid, together with the outstanding principal balance of the Third
Mortgage Note, upon the earliest of:  (i) sale of the assets of BMCLP; (ii)
refinancing of the Restated Notes for an amount in excess of the aggregate
outstanding principal balances due thereunder; or (iii) one day later than the

later of any maturity date under the Restated Notes.  As of March 31, 1997 and
December 31, 1996, accrued interest of $3,117,000 and $3,049,500, respectively,
has been added to the outstanding principal balance of $3,000,000 in accordance
with the amended Third Mortgage Note.  No net cash flow as defined in the
agreement was available for repayment of this note during the three months ended
March 31, 1997.

                        Deferred Gain on Debt Forgiveness
                        ---------------------------------

     BMCLP's outstanding obligation under the First Restated Note prior to the
restructuring was $178,373,753.  The carrying amount of the outstanding
principal and accrued interest that was forgiven based on the assignment and
subsequent restatement of the First Mortgage Note is presented as deferred gain
on debt forgiveness in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.  This
amount is being amortized as an extraordinary gain over the remaining term of
the Restated First Mortgage Note based on a constant effective yield as required
by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 15 (SFAS 15), "Accounting by
Debtors and Creditors for Troubled Debt Restructurings".

     Based on the Restated First Mortgage Note s interest rate of 9.72% and
9.78% in effect at March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996, respectively, and the
monthly principal curtailments of $108,333 as stipulated in the Restated First
Mortgage Note, the estimated total future obligation for principal and interest
is $66,036,567 and $67,453,640 at March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996,
respectively, including additional draws subsequent to the restructuring. 
Although these obligations are lower than the combined obligations of the
Restated First Mortgage Note and the deferred gain on debt forgiveness (which
totalled $132,066,702 and $136,886,036 at March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996,
respectively) SFAS 15 does not permit the entire difference to be recognized as
an extraordinary gain at the time of the restructuring as the Restated First
Mortgage Note s interest rate is variable, which makes the amount of future
debt-service payments contingent upon changes in the index upon which the
interest rate is calculated.  Accordingly, the $66,030,135 and $69,432,396
difference between the carrying value and total future obligation of the debt at
March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996, respectively, was deferred and is being
amortized as an extraordinary gain in the accompanying consolidated statements
of operations using the effective interest method over the term of the Restated
First Mortgage Note.

     As a result of the fluctuations of the interest rate on the Restated First
Mortgage Note, the Partnership continues to remeasure the total future
obligation for principal and interest based upon changes in the underlying
index, as discussed above.  Differences in the future obligation resulting from
interest rate changes are reflected as a reclassification between the Restated
First Mortgage Note and deferred gain on debt forgiveness.  For the three months
ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, $163,911 and $901,677, respectively, was
reclassified from the Restated First Mortgage Note to the deferred gain on debt
forgiveness resulting from decreases in the future obligation based on decreases
in the underlying index.  The adjusted deferred gain on debt forgiveness will be
amortized as an extraordinary gain over the remaining term of the Restated First
Mortgage Note.

3.   INVESTMENT IN BETHESDA METRO CENTER LIMITED PARTNERSHIP - Continued

     For the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, amortization of this
deferred debt forgiveness amounted to $3,566,173 and $3,581,282, respectively. 
The amortization of deferred gain is included in the extraordinary item of
$3,501,208 and $3,516,317 for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996,
respectively, in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations, as it
is shown net of the interest expense on the Restated Second Mortgage Note of
$64,965 and $64,965, for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996,
respectively, as discussed below.

     With regard to the Restated Second Mortgage Note, the total estimated
future obligation for payment of principal and interest based on the fixed
interest rate of 16% is $21,200,000.  This amount exceeds the carrying value of
the Restated Second Mortgage Note at November 16, 1994, of $19,380,974.  In
accordance with SFAS 15, this difference of $1,819,026 represents a constant
additional interest obligation based on the fixed interest rate, and is to be
amortized as a reduction of the extraordinary gain on the Restated First
Mortgage Note at $21,655 per month through maturity, using the effective
interest method, over the term of the Restated Second Mortgage Note. 
Accordingly, accrual of this additional interest for the three months ended
March 31, 1997 and 1996 amounted to $64,965 and $64,965 respectively, and was
added to the principal balance of the Restated Second Mortgage Note.

</TABLE>

     The $360,701 and $342,558 due to CRI as of March 31, 1997 and December 31,
1996, respectively, is partially comprised of $107,103 of advances to BMCLP to
fund certain payments due on its mortgages with BMCLP's former lender.  The
remaining amount due to CRI is comprised of advances to the Partnership to fund
operating deficits and accrued interest on advances.  In addition, $1,040,285 of
the $1,237,745 and $1,215,586 due to CHG as of March 31, 1997 and December 31,
1996, respectively, were advanced to BMCLP to fund certain payments on the its
mortgage notes with its former lender.  The advances from CRI and CHG accrue
interest at the prime rate plus 1% in accordance with the Partnership Agreement.

     CRCC and/or the Partnership may receive an annual payment of up to $50,000
to cover costs of management and administration, to the extent that funds are
available after payment of amounts due on the Restated First and Second Mortgage
Notes, as discussed in Note 3.  CRCC received a payment of $50,000 on June 12,
1996 from remaining net cash flow relating to 1995.  Additionally, $50,000 was
accrued as of December 31, 1996 for fiscal year 1996 management fees in the
consolidated balance sheets.  This amount has not been paid as of May 7, 1997.

     CIP Management 14, Inc., an affiliate of the Managing General Partner, may
receive an incentive management fee on a noncumulative annual basis commencing
in 1987 equal to 9.08% of net cash flow after payment of certain priorities set
forth in the partnership agreement.  No incentive management fee has been
incurred or paid for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996.

     Iroquois, which is an affiliate of the Special Limited Partners, as
discussed in Note 3, has provided financing through the Third Mortgage Note.

Management Agreements
- ---------------------

     BMCLP entered into a management agreement with Hyatt in March 1982,
pursuant to which Hyatt is to manage the Hotel commencing from the date the
Hotel opened through December 31, 2015.  Based on the management agreement,
Hyatt is to be paid a management fee consisting of a base management fee of 4%
of gross revenues, as defined, and an incentive management fee which is
calculated based on 20% of the adjusted gross operating profit, as defined. 
Management fees paid to Hyatt for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and
1996, were $172,633 and $161,556, respectively.  

     BMCLP can terminate the Hotel Management Agreement upon no less than 60
days written notice if, for two successive fiscal years after December 31, 1995
(referred to as the Sixth Full Year), the Hotel does not produce enough income
to permit Hyatt to remit to BMCLP the sum of $6,250,000 for each such fiscal
year (referred to as the Owner's Remittance).  This shortfall occurred in 1996
and Hyatt and BMCLP expect it to occur during 1997.  Accordingly, BMCLP explored
the possibility of engaging a different  hotel manager, but Hyatt would not
agree to let the Partnership retain the franchise unless Hyatt managed the
hotel.  Instead, BMCLP and Hyatt are negotiating a new Hotel Management
Agreement which will have a lower fee.  Currently, BMCLP may not sell or
transfer the Hotel or any portion thereof without the prior approval of Hyatt,
which may not be unreasonably withheld and will be based upon, among other
things, the ability of the prospective purchaser or transferee to fulfill
BMCLP's financial obligations under the Hotel Management Agreement.  Management
cannot currently project the impact on the accompanying consolidated financial
statements for the outcome of these negotiations.

     Pursuant to the management agreement, Hyatt also provides "chain services"
to the Hotel such as promotion services, advertising, centralized reservation
services, for which BMCLP is to pay its allocable share of Hyatt expenses.  As
of March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996 approximately $220,000 and $134,000,
respectively, were recorded as due to Hyatt in the consolidated financial
statements.  The remaining due to Hyatt balance as of March 31,1997 and December
31, 1996, consists of approximately $820,000  of incentive management fees
earned under its Management Agreement, as discussed above, with BMCLP.

     The management agreement provides for the establishment of a property
improvement fund.  Contributions to the property improvement fund are equal to
3% of gross Hotel revenues (as defined).  Unexpended reserves are recorded as
escrows and deposits within the accompanying financial statements.  The reserve
balances included in escrows and deposits at March 31, 1997 and December 31,
1996, were approximately $282,300 and $342,000, respectively.

     BMCLP entered into a management agreement with Realty, an affiliate prior
to July 1, 1988, of one of the Special Limited Partners, dated January 31, 1985,
pursuant to which Realty is to manage the Office Building for a term of 20 years
commencing from the date the Office Building opened.  Under the terms of this
agreement, Realty received a monthly management fee equal to 4% of all income
collected from the operation of the Office Building.  Realty had agreed to allow
BMCLP to defer payments of all management fees, effective January 1, 1992,
through the date of the restructuring of the original mortgage debt.  In
connection with the debt restructuring which occurred November 16, 1994, BMC
paid Realty $1,000,000 to terminate its former management contract with BMCLP. 
At that time BMCLP entered into a new management contract with Realty for a term
of one year which will automatically renew for successive one year periods so
long as Realty is not then in default of the management contract.  The agreement
provides for a management fee in the amount of 4% of total income collected.  Of
this amount, one-half shall be paid by Realty to BMC, during the term of the
Restated Second Mortgage Note, in partial consideration for the $1,000,000
payment to terminate the original contract.  Management fees for the three
months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, were approximately $85,000 and $118,000,
respectively.

Ground Lease
- ------------

     BMCLP constructed its buildings on land it leases from the Washington
Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA).  WMATA asserted claims against
BMCLP concerning the deterioration of the concrete slab in areas that WMATA has
used as a bus terminal and Kiss & Ride area since 1985.  WMATA asserted that the
deterioration is due to construction defects, but BMCLP takes the position that
the deterioration is due to improper maintenance.  The deterioration has reached
the point that BMCLP's parking garage, which underlies the concrete slab, could
be damaged.  Accordingly, although BMCLP denies any legal liability for the
repair of the concrete slab, it has agreed to contribute $100,000 toward repair
of the deck in exchange for a full release of any and all claims WMATA may have
with respect to the design and construction issues.  The estimated cost for
repair is approximately $1,000,000, of which WMATA will pay all but the $100,000
contributed by BMCLP.  BMCLP has negotiated a release with WMATA, and in July
1996 submitted it together with the $100,000. On September 26, 1996 the release
and a settlement agreement were signed thus releasing BMCLP from any liability
over $100,000.  The settlement agreement specifies work to be performed and
WMATA's use of BMCLP's parking garage space for structural shoring during its
repairs of the overhead concrete deck. The $100,000 is being held in trust by
WMATA until the work is completed or until WMATA requests payment.

     WMATA held a meeting with representatives from Realty on January 31, 1997
to discuss further the details of the refurbishment program.  A newly updated
repair plan was submitted to Realty in March, with a schedule showing the number
of parking spaces which will be affected along with the duration of the
construction.  This repair work is scheduled to begin on July 8, 1997 and
conclude on November 16, 1997.  There can be no assurance that the work will
commence or end on time.

     The Registrant does not have adequate cash reserves or any source of cash
to fund its projected cash requirements in 1997, which are principally comprised
of professional fees and administrative expenses.  Additionally, based on the
projected operating performance of Bethesda Metro Center Limited Partnership
(BMCLP), it is unlikely that the Registrant will receive any cash distribution
from its investment in BMCLP in 1997 due to priorities established for
distribution of excess cash flow pursuant to the restructuring of BMCLP's
mortgage notes.  However, the Managing General Partner of the Registrant has
represented a willingness to fund projected cash flow requirements of the
Registrant for the year ending December 31, 1997.

     At March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996, the Registrant had $116 in
available cash.

     During the first three months of 1997, the Registrant recorded a $8,266
increase in accounts payable.  The increase in accounts payable includes an
increase of $11,324 in loan payable to its Managing General Partner for
administrative expenses and a decrease of $3,058 in third-party payables.

                                -----------------

     BMCLP, of which the Registrant owns a 92.5% limited partnership interest,
had unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $1,452,876 and $2,015,128 at March
31, 1997 and December 31, 1996, respectively.  BMCLP had restricted cash and
cash equivalents of $2,196,515 and $1,801,023 at March 31, 1997 and December 31,
1996, respectively.  During the first three months of 1997, unrestricted cash
and cash equivalents decreased $562,252 despite net income of $4,169,664.  This
was largely due to the non-cash gain on debt forgiveness of $3,501,208, net debt
and interest payments of $1,478,140, and fixed asset additions and payment of
leasing costs of $381,656 and $176,691, respectively, which were offset by
depreciation and amortization totaling $1,333,924.

                            Operating Deficit Reserve
                            -------------------------

     For operating deficits which arise, the Limited Partnership Agreement (LPA)
provides that Alan I. Kay and Allen E. Rozansky and their affiliates
(collectively, R&K) are required to loan, or cause to be loaned, all amounts
necessary to pay operating deficits (Operating Deficit Loans) up to an aggregate
principal amount of $15,600,000.  R&K and the Partnership have agreed that the
former Second Mortgage Note of $10,000,000 was an Operating Deficit Loan "caused
to be" made to BMCLP by R&K.  Further, R&K's Operating Deficit Loan obligation
limit of $15,600,000 was increased by (i) an amount equal to the net positive
difference between the interest due and payable under the original terms of the
First Mortgage Note and the interest due and payable under the original First
Mortgage Note as a result of the third loan modification and (ii) the amount
that interest accruing on the original Second Mortgage Note exceeded the
interest that would have accrued had the loan been made directly by R&K.  At
March 31, 1997, BMCLP estimates that R&K's total operating deficit obligation
has increased to approximately $29,000,000, although R&K does not concur with
this amount.  As of March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996, R&K has provided

$2,397,964 and $2,367,168, respectively, including accrued interest, to BMCLP to
fund operating deficits under this provision of the LPA.  This amount is net of
$342,734 which is due from the Alan I. Kay Companies, an affiliate of Alan I.
Kay, for advances from BMCLP.  Interest on amounts advanced to BMCLP for
operating deficits is accrued at the prime rate plus 1% and will be repaid
subject to the terms of the Restated Notes and then out of 50% of cash flow
available after payment of certain priorities as set forth in the BMCLP
partnership agreement.  Cumulative interest accrued on these advances was
$1,159,077 and $1,128,281 at March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996, respectively,
and has been added to the original advance amount.  For the three months ended
March 31, 1997 and 1996, no amounts were advanced to BMCLP for operating
deficits because R&K has represented that their net worth is not significant,
their assets are very illiquid and they do not have resources to meet their
operating deficit obligations.

     In accordance with the terms of the Restated First and Second Mortgage
Notes dated November 16, 1994, BMCLP has several additional resources to fund
current operating deficits.  If BMCLP requires funds to pay for capital
improvements, tenant improvements, leasing commissions, etc., and is in
compliance with the conditions stated in the Restated First Mortgage Note, GECC
shall advance for such purposes up to 50% of the amounts previously paid by
BMCLP as principal payments.  During the three months ended March 31, 1997 and
1996, GECC advanced $176,171 and $0, respectively, to BMCLP for tenant
improvements.

     Upon approval of BMC Lender Partnership (BMC), BMCLP may draw upon the
$1,038,654 that was placed in an escrow account at the closing of the Restated
Second Mortgage Note.  These funds may be used to pay operating expenses
including capital improvements, tenant improvements and leasing commissions of
the Development including payments under the Restated Notes.  During 1995, BMCLP
withdrew $400,000 from the escrow account to help pay the interest due on the
Restated Second Mortgage Note and  deposited $100,000 to replenish the reserve. 
During 1996 BMCLP withdrew $715,000 from the escrow account to help pay
operating expenses including capital improvements, tenant improvements and
leasing commissions and deposited $250,000 to replenish the reserve.  As of May
7, 1997 BMCLP has made no withdrawal or deposits.  As of March 31, 1997 and
December 31, 1996, balances in the escrow account totalled $273,654 and
$273,654, respectively.

     BMC may advance additional amounts up to $5,000,000 to BMCLP in accordance
with the Restated Second Mortgage Note.  Also, BMC may re-advance funds received
from BMCLP as additional interest payments (75% net cash flow) if BMCLP pays its
25% share of net cash flow held in reserves.  No advances were made by BMC to
BMCLP in 1997 or 1996.

Registrant
- ----------

Three months ended March 31, 1997 in comparison with March 31, 1996
- -------------------------------------------------------------------

     The Registrant recorded a net loss for the three months ended March 31,
1997 of $8,266 as compared with a net loss of $9,636 for the corresponding
period in 1996.  Operating expenses during the first quarter of 1997 were $1,370
lower than 1996 primarily due to the timing of accounting and auditing fees.


Bethesda Metro Center Limited Partnership
- -----------------------------------------

Three months ended March 31, 1997 in comparison with March 31, 1996
- -------------------------------------------------------------------

     BMCLP's net income for the first quarter of 1997 increased $278,376 or 7%
from the corresponding period in 1996, primarily as a result of an increase in
room revenue and other revenue, along with a decrease in food and beverage
expenses and telephone expenses.  BMCLP's net income also increased due to a
decrease in amortization expense, as a result of decreased deferred charges. The
increase in net income was partially offset by a decrease in office revenue,
food and beverage revenue and telephone revenue.  Also offsetting the increase
in BMCLP's net income was an increase in room expenses, and a decrease in
extraordinary gain on debt forgiveness due to fluctuations in the underlying
debt interest rate.

     Room revenue increased $302,331 or 11% from the first quarter of 1996. 
Hotel occupancy increased 5% due to an increase in transient occupied rooms. 
Food and beverage revenues decreased $8,175 or 1% from the same period last year
as a result of a decrease in outlet beverage sales and a reduction in public
room rental.  Telephone revenue decreased $19,702 or 13% due to a reduction in
long distance call revenue.  Other revenue increased $1,678 or 9% primarily due
to a check received from the gift shop lessee for the third and fourth quarter
1996 percentage rent payment.  The increases in room revenue, offset by the
decrease in food and beverage revenues and telephone revenue, resulted in first
quarter gross operating profits which exceeded the same period last year by
approximately $276,007 or 20%.

     Office building revenue for the first quarter of 1997 decreased $87,048 or
4% from the first quarter of 1996.  The occupancy of the office building
remained at 95% for the first quarter of 1997.  The retail and marketplace
occupancy decreased from 97% to 83% primarily due to two major retail leases
expiring and not being renewed.  The retail and marketplace average rental rate
decreased from $38 to $31 during the first quarter of 1997 as compared to 1996,
primarily due to rates dropping throughout the market.

     Operating expenses of the office building for the first quarter of 1997
decreased by $29,181 or 5% from the first quarter of 1996 primarily due to lower
utility costs.

     It should be noted that BMCLP's investment in the Development is a
high-risk investment involving many factors beyond the control of its General
Partner.  Such factors could adversely affect the operation and value of the
Development and, consequently, the value of an interest in the Partnership, to
an extent not currently ascertainable.  These factors, include, but are not
limited to, over building of office, hotel or commercial space; changes in the
general or local economic conditions including changes in interest rates;
adjacent land utilization; changes in demand or use with respect to the nearby
business facilities; demographic trends; increases in real estate taxes; changes
in the federal income tax laws, which could be applied retroactively; local,
state and federal environmental, energy, and other regulations (including
regulations governing the maintenance of liquor licenses); possible restrictive
changes in the uses applicable to real estate, zoning and similar land use and
environmental laws and regulations; and acts of God.  Effective July 1, 1996,
the local government in Montgomery County, Maryland, where the hotel is located,
increased room taxes from 5% to 7% to fund the Montgomery County Conference
Center which was expected to be complete in 1999, but the location of this
center is now under dispute.

     In addition, Hotel occupancy and room rates may be adversely affected by a
downturn in the business cycle or by shortages of gasoline or increases in the
price of gasoline, increases in airline fare rates or the curtailment of airline
service, or other constraints upon travel.  Furthermore, in the event mortgage
payment and/or tax assessment obligations are not met, the Partnership may
sustain a loss of its equity investment as a result of foreclosure of the
Restated First or Second Mortgage Notes and/or tax sale.
