            PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION

        December 31, 1998
        Consolidated Statements of Operations - Three Months and Nine Months
        Ended September 30, 1999 and 1998 (unaudited)

        Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

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

          (1)  Liquidity

              As  of September 30, 1999, Registrant had cash of approximately
$316,504.  The Registrant expects that  the funds plus the cash generated
from operations at  each  property  will  be  sufficient  to  fund  the
operating expenses of the properties.  In addition to the operating expenses
of the properties, the Registrant distributed $248,571 to the limited partners
in  July  1999.   The Registrant is not  aware  of  any additional sources of
liquidity.

              As  of September 30, 1999, Registrant had restricted  cash  of
$26,952 consisting  primarily  of funds  held as security deposits,
replacement  reserves and escrows for taxes and insurance.  As a consequence
of the restrictions as to use, Registrant does not deem these funds to be a
source of liquidity.

          (2)  Capital Resources

                Due to the relatively recent rehabilitations of the properties,
any capital expenditures needed are generally replacement items and are funded
out of cash from operations.  The Registrant is   not  aware  of  any  factors
which would cause historical capital expenditure levels not to be indicative
of capital requirements in the future and accordingly,  does not believe that
it will have to commit material resources to capital investment for the
foreseeable future.

          (3)  Results of Operations

               During   the  third  quarter  of   1999, Registrant  incurred
a loss of  $23,124  ($2.76  per limited partnership unit) compared to a loss
of  $8,287 ($.99 per limited partnership unit) for the same period in  1998.
For  the  first nine months  of  1999,  the Registrant  incurred  a  loss  of
$68,819  ($8.22  per limited  partnership unit) compared a loss  of  $39,704
($4.74  per  limited  partnership unit)  for  the  same period in 1998.

               Rental income increased $2,961 from $46,063 in the third
quarter of 1998 to $49,024 in  the same  period in 1999 and increased $6,644
from $139,508 for  the first nine months of 1998 to $146,152  in  the same
period in 1999.  The increase in rental income for the  third  quarter and
the first nine months  of  1999 from  the  same  periods in 1998 is the
result  of  an increase  in  the average occupancy and average  rental
rates at the Brass Works and an increase in the average occupancy at Locke
Mill Plaza.

              Interest  income  decreased  $1,204  from $3,333  in the third
quarter of 1998 to $2,129  in  the same  period in 1999 and decreased $23,190
from $31,325 for the first nine months of 1998 to $8,135 in the same period
in 1999 due to the decrease in the average  cash balances.

              Expense  for rental operations  increased $10,483  from $23,076
in the third quarter of  1998  to $33,559  in the same period in 1999 and for
the  first nine months of 1999 increased $13,737 from $87,214  for the first
nine months of 1998 to $100,951 in the  same period in 1999.  The increase for
the third quarter and the  first nine months of 1999 from the same period  in
1998  is  the  result  of  an increase  in  maintenance expense at the Brass
Works and an increase  in  legal fees  incurred  by  the Registrant.   The
increase  in maintenance expense at the Brass Works is  due  to  the increase
in the turnover of apartment units.

              Income  recognized during the quarter  at the  Registrant's
three properties amounted to  $7,000, compared to income of approximately
$5,000 for the same period in 1998.  For the first nine months of 1999, the
Registrant recognized income of $10,000 compared to income of approximately
$6,000 for the same period in 1998.

              In  the third quarter of 1999, Registrant recognized income of
$8,000 at the Brass Works, including $12,000 of depreciation expense, compared
to income of $8,000  including $12,000  of  depreciation expense in the third
quarter of 1998.  Although  there was  no  significant  overall  change,
there  was an increase  in  rental income due to an increase  in  the
average occupancy (97% to 99%) and an increase  in  the average rental rates
partially offset by an increase in maintenance expense.   The increase in
maintenance expense is the result of the increase in occupancy and an
increase in the turnover of apartment units.

               For  the  first  nine  months  of  1999, Registrant recognized
income of $8,000 at the Brass Works including $36,000 of depreciation expense,
compared to income of $7,000 for the same period in 1998,  including $36,000
of depreciation expense.   The increase in net income is due to an increase in
rental income  partially offset by an increase in  maintenance expense.  The
increase in rental income is due to an increase in the average rental rates
while the  average occupancy declined slightly (98% to 96%).  The increase
in the maintenance expense is due to an increase in the turnover of apartment
units.

              In  the third quarter of 1999, Registrant incurred  a  loss  of
$1,000 at the Locke  Mill  Plaza, including $7,000 of depreciation expense,
compared to a loss of $3,000 including $7,000 of depreciation expense in  the
second quarter of 1998 and for the first  nine months  of 1999, Registrant
recognized income of $2,000 including $20,000 of depreciation expense,
compared  to a loss of $1,000 for the same period in 1998, including $20,000
of depreciation expense.  The decrease  in  the loss  for the third quarter
and the increase in  income for the first nine months of 1999 from the same
periods in  1998 is mainly the result of an increase in  rental income.   The
increase in rental income is  due  to  an increase in the average occupancy
(89% to 97%) for  the third  quarter  and for the first nine months  (92%  to
98%) of 1999.
