                 PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Item 1.   Financial Statements.

        Consolidated Balance Sheets - March 31, 2000 (unaudited)
        and December 31, 1999
        Consolidated Statements of Operations - Three Months
        Ended March 31, 2000 and 1999 (unaudited)
        Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows - Three Months
        Ended March 31, 2000 and 1999 (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  March  31,  2000, Registrant  had  cash  of
$318,756.  The Registrant expects that those funds plus the  cash
generated from operations at each property will be sufficient  to
fund the operating expenses of the properties.  The Registrant is
not aware of any additional sources of liquidity.

             As of March 31, 2000, Registrant had restricted cash
of  $19,366  consisting  primarily  of  funds  held  as  security
deposits  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

               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  first  quarter  of  2000,  Registrant
incurred  a loss of $33,854 ($4.04 per limited partnership  unit)
compared  to  a  loss  of $26,372 ($3.15 per limited  partnership
unit) for the same period in 1999.

              Rental  income increased $318 from $48,398  in  the
first quarter of 1999 to $48,716 in the same period in 2000.  The
increase in rental income is the result of an increase in average
rental  rates at the Brass Works, partially offset by a  decrease
in average occupancy at Locke Mill Plaza (99% to 86%).

              Interest income decreased $1,514 from $3,612 in the
first quarter of 1999 to $2,098 in the same period in 2000.   The
decrease  is  the result of a decrease in the amount of  invested
cash.

              Expenses for rental operations increased by  $6,098
from  $37,664 in the first quarter of 1999 to $43,762 in the same
period  in  2000.  The increase is the result of an  increase  in
maintenance expense at the Brass Works due to repairs made at the
property, partially offset by a decrease at Locke Mill Plaza as a
result of the decrease in average occupancy.

              Losses incurred during the first quarter of 2000 at
the Registrant's two properties amounted to approximately $2,000,
compared to losses of approximately $4,000 for the same period in
1999.

              In the first quarter of 2000, Registrant incurred a
loss  of  $3,000  at  the  Brass  Works,  including  $12,000   of
depreciation  expense,  compared to a loss  of  $5,000  including
$12,000  of  depreciation expense in the first quarter  of  1999.
The  decrease in the loss from the first quarter of 1999  to  the
first quarter of 2000 is due to an increase in rental income  due
to  an increase in the average rental rates, partially offset  by
an  increase  in maintenance expense due to repairs made  at  the
property.

              In the first quarter of 2000, Registrant recognized
income  of  $600  at  Locke  Mill  Plaza,  including  $7,000   of
depreciation  expense,  compared to income  of  $1,000  including
$7,000 of depreciation expense in the first quarter of 1999.  The
decrease  in income from the first quarter of 1999 to  the  first
quarter  of  2000  is  due  to  the decrease  in  rental  income,
partially  offset by a decrease in maintenance  expense.   Rental
income  and maintenance expense both decreased due to a  decrease
in average occupancy (99% to 86%).
