3.  Investment in Joint Venture
   
   On  May  31, 1988, the Partnership entered into the  USAA
   Chelmsford  Associates  Joint  Venture  with  USAA   Real
   Estate  Company, the parent company of the  Partnership's
   General Partner,  for the ownership and operation of  the
   Apollo  Computer  Research  and Development  Headquarters
   Building.   The  Partnership contributed  $9,000,000  for
   its   55.8%  joint  venture  interest.  The  contribution
   consisted  of  $3,000,000 in remaining offering  proceeds
   and  $6,000,000 in proceeds from a note payable  to  USAA
   Real  Estate Company.     The    Partnership     accounts
   for  its investment in the joint venture using the equity
   method.

                             PART I

   Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
              Condition and Results of Operations

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At  September 30, 1997, the Partnership had cash of  $24,245  and
temporary investments of $968,335.  These funds were held in  the
working  capital  reserve for the payment of obligations  of  the
Partnership.  Accounts receivable consisted of amounts  due  from
tenants.   Deferred charges and other assets consisted  primarily
of deferred rent resulting from recognition of income as required
by   generally   accepted   accounting   principles   and   lease
commissions.   Accounts  payable  consisted  of  amounts  due  to
affiliates  for  reimbursable expenses and management  fees,  and
amounts   due   to  third  parties  for  expenses  incurred   for
operations.   Accrued  expenses and other  liabilities  consisted
primarily of security deposits, property tax accruals and prepaid
rent.

During  the  quarter  ended September 30, 1997,  the  Partnership
distributed  $120,990  to  Limited Partners  and  $1,222  to  the
General  Partner  for a total of $122,212.  Management  evaluates
reserves  and  the  availability of  funds  for  distribution  to
Partners  on  a  continuing basis based  on  anticipated  leasing
activity   and   cash  flows  available  from   the   Partnership
investments.

A  significant  amount of the working capital  reserve  was  used
during  1996 and will be needed in 1997 for leasing costs at  the
Partnership  properties.  During the first quarter of  1997,  the
Partnership  borrowed $1,200,000 from USAA  Real  Estate  Company
(the  Adviser)  to  fund  working capital  needs  in  1997.   The
$6,000,000 note payable was thereby increased to $7,200,000  with
a  decrease  in the interest rate from 10% to 9%.   The  maturity
date  of the note payable was extended from September 1, 1997  to
March 1, 1999.

During  the  second  quarter,  the  $168,500  tenant  improvement
allowance provided to Linear Technology in conjunction  with  its
1995  lease renewal was paid from the working capital reserve  of
the Partnership.

At  September 30, 1997, the Kodak Building was approximately  61%
leased  by  Eastman Kodak Company.  This lease was  scheduled  to
expire  February  1998;  however, during October,  Eastman  Kodak
Company renewed its lease for an additional five years commencing
March  1998.   The  lease  provides for  an  annual  rental  rate
beginning  at  $10.20 per square foot.  Currently, Eastman  Kodak
pays  $10.44 per square foot annually.  This tenant will continue
to pay its pro rata share of operating expenses. An allowance for
tenant improvements was also provided for a total of $173,000  to
be paid from the working capital reserve of the Partnership.


                             8

Invitrogen Corporation previously occupied the remainder  of  the
Kodak Building.  This lease was scheduled to expire December  31,
1996; however, Invitrogen remained in the building until February
1997  paying  holdover  rent (200% of  December  1996  rent)  for
January  and February.  During the third quarter, the Partnership
successfully  negotiated  a lease with Accumetrics,  Inc.  for  a
lease  term of 64 months which commences November 1, 1997.   This
lease provides for an annual rental rate beginning at $10.44  per
square foot.  In addition, Accumetrics will begin paying its  pro
rata  share of operating expenses upon commencement of the lease.
An  allowance for tenant improvements was provided for a total of
$242,000  to  be  paid from the working capital  reserve  of  the
Partnership.  With this lease, the Kodak Building was 100% leased
as of September 30, 1997.

Water infiltration has been discovered at the Kodak Building that
has  caused  damage  to  a  portion of the  ground  floor  tiles,
exterior  walls and slab joints.  Remediation costs are estimated
to  be  approximately $55,000 instead of the $120,000  previously
expected which will be funded from the working capital reserve of
the Partnership.

At  September 30, 1997, 1881 Pine Street was 90% leased.   During
the  third quarter, a change in property management companies was
completed which will help to better serve tenants' needs.

During  the  first quarter of 1997, a sixty-two month  lease  was
signed  at  1881 Pine Street for 8,350 rentable square feet.  The
lease  commenced May 1, 1997 and will terminate on June 30, 2002.
The  lease provides for an annual rental rate beginning at $16.00
per  square foot.  In addition, this tenant will pay its pro rata
share  of operating expenses in excess of a 1997 base year.   The
Partnership   provided   approximately   $133,600    of    tenant
improvements,  which was paid out of the working capital  reserve
of the Partnership.

During  1995, the lease with Hewlett-Packard Company, the  single
tenant  at  the Apollo Building in Chelmsford, Massachusetts  was
renewed for an additional 41 months.  The new monthly rental rate
of  approximately $.57 per square foot net for the 291,454 square
foot building began January 1, 1997.  This rate is lower than the
rate  paid in 1996 of approximately $.76 per square foot net  and
reflects  the  market  conditions in  the  area  surrounding  the
property  at  the  time of the lease renewal.  An  allowance  for
tenant  improvements was provided for a total of $565,000  to  be
paid from the joint venture working capital.  To date, Hewlett-
Packard has used approximately $483,000 of the allowance.
Approximately $82,000 of the  allowance remains.  Hewlett-Packard
has announced  plans  to relocate  its  workstation  group out  
of  Massachusetts  and  to sublease the top floor of the Apollo Building.

                             9
<PAGE>
On  June 10, 1997, the Partnership signed a letter of intent with
American  Industrial Properties REIT [NYSE:  IND]  (the  "Trust")
contemplating   the   merger   of  four   real   estate   limited
partnerships,  including the Partnership, into  the  Trust.   The
four real estate limited partnerships are USAA Real Estate Income
Investments  I  Limited  Partnership,  USAA  Real  Estate  Income
Investments  II  Limited Partnership, USAA Income Properties  III
Limited   Partnership  and  USAA  Income  Properties  IV  Limited
Partnership  (collectively, the "RELPs").  Each of the  RELPs  is
affiliated  with USAA Real Estate Company, which  currently  owns
approximately 13.74% of the outstanding shares of the Trust.
     
On  July  7,  1997, the Trust signed definitive merger agreements
with each of the RELPs pursuant to which the RELPs will be merged
into   the  Trust  (the  "Merger").    According  to  the  Merger
Agreements, the Trust will issue an aggregate of 4,412,829 shares
of beneficial interest at $13.125 per share (for a total value of
$57,918,385) in exchange for the limited partnership interests in
the  RELPs.  The number of Shares and per Share amount have  been
restated to reflect the impact of the one for five reverse 
split  approved  by the Trust shareholders on October  15,  1997.
The  number of Shares to be issued to each RELP will be equal  to
the  net  asset value for each RELP (as agreed by the  Trust  and
each  RELP)  divided  by $13.125.  The number  of  Shares  to  be
received  by  a Limited Partner in each RELP will be computed  in
accordance with such partner's percentage interest in  the  RELP.
The general partner of each RELP has waived any right it may have
to receive Shares to which it may be entitled in exchange for its
general partnership interest. The Merger is a taxable transaction
to  the  partners in the RELPs.  Prudential Securities, Inc.,  on
behalf  of  the  Trust, and Houlihan, Lokey, Howard  &  Zukin  on
behalf  of  the RELPs, have rendered opinions to their respective
parties  that the transaction is fair from a financial  point  of
view.

The Merger, which has been approved by the Trust's Board of Trust
Managers  and  the  Board of Directors of  each  of  the  general
partners  of  the  RELPs, is subject to  due  diligence  by  both
parties and certain other conditions, including approval  by  the
Limited Partners of each of the RELPs and the shareholders of the
Trust.  Accordingly, there can be no assurance that  the  mergers
will ultimately be consummated.  There has been a meeting of  the
Limited Partners tentatively scheduled for early January 1998  to
consider a vote on the proposed transaction.

On  August  20,  1997,  a  purported class  action  lawsuit  (the
"Lawsuit"), which was filed in the Superior Court of the State of
Arizona,   was  served  upon  USAA  Real  Estate  Company,   USAA
Properties I, Inc. ("RELP GP I"), USAA Properties II, Inc. ("RELP
GP  II"),  USAA  Properties  III,  Inc.  ("RELP  GP  III"),  USAA
Properties IV, Inc. ("RELP GP IV", together with RELP GP I,  RELP
GP  II and RELP GP III, the "RELP GPs"), certain other affiliated
entities and the individual members of the boards of directors of
each  of  the RELP GPs.  The Trust was also named as a defendant.
The  Lawsuit  was subsequently  removed  to federal court and has
been  transferred to the Western District of Texas,  San  Antonio
Division.   The  suit  alleges among other  things,  breaches  of

                             10
<PAGE>
fiduciary  duty in connection with the transactions  contemplated
by  merger  agreements entered into by the RELPs and  the  Trust,
dated as of June 30, 1997, whereby each RELP would be merged with
and into the Trust.

The Lawsuit seeks, among other things, to enjoin the consummation
of   the  Merger  and  damages,  including  attorneys'  fees  and
expenses.  The defendants believe that the plantiffs' claims  are
without  merit  and  intend  to  defend  vigorously  against  the
Lawsuit.

Future  liquidity is expected to result from cash generated  from
operations  of the properties, interest on temporary  investments
and ultimately through the sale of the properties.


Results of Operations

For  the  three-month and nine-month periods ended September  30,
1997  and 1996, income was generated from rental income from  the
income-producing real estate properties, interest  income  earned
on the funds in temporary investments and earnings from the joint
venture interest.

Expenses  incurred during the same periods were  associated  with
the  operation of the Partnership's properties, interest  on  the
mortgages   payable   and  various  other  costs   required   for
administration of the Partnership.

Rental  properties increased as of September 30, 1997 as compared
to  December  31, 1996 due to tenant improvements  at  1881  Pine
Street  and  Linear  offset by depreciation.  The  investment  in
joint  venture decreased as of September 30, 1997 due  to  a  net
loss  for  the  joint venture property.  Accounts receivable  was
higher  at  September 30, 1997 due to an increase in  receivables
from  tenants  at 1881 Pine Street.  Deferred charges  and  other
assets  increased as a result of lease commissions paid  at  1881
Pine  Street.  The  note  payable to affiliate  increased  as  of
September  30,  1997 due to borrowing from the  Adviser  to  fund
working  capital  needs.  See "Liquidity and Capital  Resources".
Accounts  payable decreased due to the payment of  retainages  on
tenant  improvements  at 1881 Pine Street. Accrued  expenses  and
other  liabilities  increased primarily due  to  an  increase  in
accrued property taxes at 1881 Pine Street.

Rental  income  increased  for  the  three-month  and  nine-month
periods  ended September 30, 1997 as compared to the same periods
ended  September  30, 1996.  Rental income at  1881  Pine  Street
increased  by approximately $296,000 and $825,000 for the  three-
month   and   nine-month  periods  ended  September   30,   1997,
respectively,  due to increased occupancy from 21%  at  September
30,  1996 to 90% at September 30, 1997.  Offsetting this increase
was  a  decrease  in  rental  income at  the  Kodak  Building  of
approximately $75,000 and $146,000 for the three-month and  nine-
month  periods ended September 30, 1997, respectively, due  to  a
decrease  in occupancy from 100% at December 31, 1996 to  61%  at
September 30, 1997.

Equity  in  joint venture earnings decreased for the  three-month
and  nine-month periods ended September 30, 1997 as  compared  to
the  same periods ended September 30, 1996 due to a net loss  for
the joint venture property.  Rental income at the Apollo Building
decreased  based on the lease renewal rate effective  January  1,
1997.

Interest  income  decreased due to lower cash  balances  for  the
periods  ended September 30, 1997 as compared to the same periods
ended September 30, 1996.

Direct  expenses were higher for the three-month  and  nine-month
periods  ended September 30, 1997 as compared to the same periods
ended  September 30, 1996 due to operating expenses at 1881  Pine
Street.  Expenses were minimal for the three-month and nine-month
periods ended September 30, 1996 due to the building being vacant
most  of  that time.  For the three-month and nine-month  periods
ended September 30, 1997, 1881 Pine Street incurred expenses  for
utilities,  heating  and air conditioning repairs,  cleaning  and
other  building services.  Also contributing to the increase  was
an  increase in the property tax accrual.  1881 Pine  Street  was
under  a  redevelopment real estate tax incentive program,  which
expired   December   31,  1996.   The  1996   tax   payment   was
approximately $23,000 compared to an estimate for 1997  taxes  of
approximately $212,000.

Depreciation increased for the three-month and nine-month periods
ended  September 30, 1997 as compared to the same  periods  ended
September 30, 1996 due to tenant improvements at 1881 Pine Street
and  Linear  offset  by  a  decrease at Kodak  caused  by  tenant
improvements  for  Invitrogen being fully  depreciated  in  April
1996.

General and administrative expenses increased for the three-month
and  nine-month periods ended September 30, 1997 as  compared  to
the same periods ended September 30, 1996 due to lease commission
expense  at  1881 Pine Street for the new leases.  The management
fee  is  based  on  cash flow from operations of the  Partnership
adjusted  for  cash  reserves  and fluctuated  accordingly.   The
decrease  in  the management fee for the nine-month period  ended
September  30,  1997 was due to an increase in expenses  at  1881
Pine Street.
