ITEM 2.  DISPOSITION OF ASSETS

On July 8, 1997, Mid-Atlantic Centers Limited Partnership (the
"Partnership") entered into an agreement to sell Berkeley Square
Shopping Center, a 101,858 square foot shopping center in Goose Creek,
South Carolina to an unrelated third party, a regional real estate
company, for a contract price of $2,975,000.  The contract was subject
to various contingencies until August 22, 1997 when the contract
purchaser's deposit of $100,000 became subject to risk of forfeiture.

The transaction is now scheduled to close on September 10, 1997.  For
financial reporting purposes, the Partnership estimates that a net
loss of approximately $23,000 will be recorded at the time of closing. 
The net proceeds from the sale, after payoff of the related mortgage
debt and transaction expenses, are expected to be approximately
$1,500,000.  Actual net proceeds could differ from this estimate as a
result of differences between actual and estimated transaction
expenses, adjustment of prepaid expenses and accrued liabilities and
refund of lender escrows.  The appraised net equity of Berkeley Square
included in the appraised value of the Partnership's portfolio at the
end of 1996 was approximately $1,615,000.

Pro forma financial information of the Partnership reflecting the
foregoing transactions is attached hereto as indicated in Item 7.

ITEM 7.  Financial Statements, Pro Forma Financial Information and
         Exhibits

The following pro forma condensed financial statements give effect to
the sale of three of the Partnership's properties, Berkeley Square
Shopping Center, Jackson Heights Shopping Center (which occurred on
July 16, 1997) and Cloister Shopping Center (which occurred on May 28,
1997) (the "Sales") as described below.  The pro forma condensed
financial statements are based on and should be read in conjunction
with the historical financial statements of the Partnership for the
six months ended June 30, 1997 and the year ended December 31, 1996.  

The following pro forma condensed balance sheet as of June 30, 1997
assumes the sales of Berkeley Square and Jackson Heights had occurred
on June 30, 1997.  The sale of Cloister on May 28, 1997 is reflected
in the historical balance sheet.  The following pro forma condensed
statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and
the year ended December 31, 1996 assume the Sales all occurred on
January 1, 1997 and 1996, respectively.  The following pro forma
condensed financial statements are presented for illustrative purposes
only and are not necessarily indicative of the operating results or
financial position that would have occurred if the Sales had been
consummated on the dates indicated, nor is it indicative of future
operating results or financial position.

                   Notes to Pro Forma Condensed
                     Financial Information

Note 1 - Balance Sheet

Sale of Shopping Centers

Reflects sale of Berkeley Square Shopping Center and Jackson Heights
Shopping Center.  The sale of Cloister on May 28, 1997 is reflected in
the historical balance sheet.  The amount added to cash of $4,093,660
in the Pro Forma Condensed Balance Sheet differs from the total of
approximately $4,087,000 in cash actually received at the closing of
the sale of Jackson Heights plus cash estimated to be received at the
closing of the sale of Berkeley Square.  This difference is due to
closing adjustments, the assumed payment of accounts payable and
accrued expenses and related party payables and the assumed
reimbursement of prepaid insurance expense.

The Partnership retained the tenant accounts receivables related to
the three shopping centers sold and reversed the accrual of
receivables related to the recording of rental income on a straight-
line basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles.

The amount added to partners' equity reflects the net estimated gain
on sale of shopping centers at the closing dates.

Note 2 - Statements of Operations

An estimated net gain of $156,817 on the pro forma sale of the two
shopping centers on January 1, 1997 and 1996, respectively, has not
been included in the accompanying Pro Forma Condensed Statements of
Operations for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and the year ended
December 31, 1996, respectively.
