                 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements


The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the Partnership's annual 1993 audited financial statements
within Form 10-K.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments
consisting of only normal recurring accruals which are, in the opinion of
management, necessary to present a fair statement of financial position as of
September 30, 1994 and the results of operations, changes in partners' capital,
and cash flows for the nine months then ended.  Results of operations for the
period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the
full year.

No significant events have occurred subsequent to fiscal year 1993, and no
material contingencies exist which would require disclosure in this interim
report per Regulation S-X, Rule 10-01, Paragraph (a)(5).

          Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
                            and Results of Operations

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- - -------------------------------
At September 30, 1994, the Partnership had cash totalling $9,442,157 which
represents a $1,757,147 increase from the December 31, 1993 balance of
$7,685,010.  The increase is primarily a result of cash provided by operating
activities which exceeded cash distributions to limited partners and
expenditures for property improvements.  On or about November 15, 1994, the
Partnership will pay a third quarter cash distribution of $.125 per Unit. Based
upon the General Partner's current assessment of the Partnership's needs in the
near term, the General Partner expects to continue to build cash reserves;
however, cash distribution levels are reviewed by the General Partner on a
quarterly basis.

Due to the current limited availability of financing for real estate projects
and substantially more stringent underwriting criteria being applied when
financing is available, a primary focus of the Partnership will be its efforts
to address its current and future capital requirements.  The Partnership's two
mortgage loans mature on October 15, 1996, at which time the Partnership will
be obligated to pay the lenders approximately $59.9 million, including interest
on its zero coupon first mortgage note.  During 1993, Kemper sold its
participating interest in the loans to CBA Conduit, Inc., which placed the
loans into a pool of mortgages to be held by a real estate mortgage investment
conduit.  Although the terms of these loans have not changed, this sale may
affect the Partnership's ability to refinance the loans at maturity.  The
ability of the Partnership to obtain refinancing of its current mortgages in
whole or in part, or, as an alternative, to find a purchaser for the Mall, may
al so be affected by general economic conditions.

J.C. Penney's operating covenant expired on October 10, 1994 and has not been
renewed.  The operating covenants of Hecht's and Montgomery Ward, the Mall's
other anchor tenants, are scheduled to expire by 1996.   Although all three
stores remain liable for all payments under their respective lease agreements,
which do not begin to expire until 2009, the expiration of their operating
covenants allows them to sublet the premises or assign their lease.  To date,
none of the three tenants has given any indication that it intends to leave the
Mall.  While the center's anchor tenant stores continue to register respectable
sales performances, the Partnership's ability to retain them at the center may
depend upon continued efforts to upgrade the Mall to ensure that anchor tenant
sales levels do not diminish.  Accordingly, the General Partner has pursued,
and will continue to pursue, leasing and capital expenditure strategies
intended to maintain the long-term viability of the center's anchor tenant
mix.

At September 30, 1994, the accounts receivable balance, net of allowance for
doubtful accounts, was $657,065  compared to $580,407 at December 31, 1993.
The increase is primarily due to the increase in rental receivables offset by
the timing of payments received from tenants for percentage rent and common
area maintenance, as well as an increase in allowance for bad debt associated
with three former tenants.
 
Prepaid expenses and other assets increased $240,915 from $527,922 at December
31, 1993 to $768,837 at September 30, 1994 due to the payment of real estate
taxes for the year ended June 30, 1995.  At September 30, 1994 accounts payable
and accrued expenses totalled $140,155 compared to $283,561 at December 31,
1993.  The decrease is primarily due to a difference in the timing of payments
for electricity expense.

The zero coupon first mortgage note payable increased $3,391,650 from December
31, 1993 to $47,259,856 at September 30, 1994, due to the accrual of interest
on the zero coupon note.

Results of Operations
- - ---------------------
Net cash flow from operating activities totaled $3,727,588 for the nine months
ended September 30, 1994, relatively unchanged from $3,784,772 for the
comparable period in 1993.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 1994, the Partnership
reported a net loss of $202,805 and $551,568, respectively as compared to net
losses of $244,798 and $329,174 for the three and nine months ended September
30, 1993.  The increased net loss in the 1994 nine-month period is primarily
the result of an increase in interest and property operating expenses, offset
by an increase in rental and escalation income.

Rental income totalled $1,353,885 and $3,996,546, respectively, for the three
and nine months ended at September 30, 1994 as compared to $1,275,786 and
$3,777,380, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30,
1993.  The increases are primarily attributable to changes in tenant mix.
Escalation income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1994
totalled $1,307,454 and $3,817,072 respectively, compared with $1,178,996 and
$3,584,882 for the same period in 1993.  Escalation income represents billings
to tenants for their proportional share of common area maintenance, operating
and real estate tax expenses.  The increase in escalation income is primarily
due to an increase in property operating costs and temporary tenant HVAC income
from 1993 to 1994.

Total expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1994 were
$3,044,155 and $8,781,831, respectively, compared to $2,827,878 and $8,039,957
for the corresponding periods in 1993.  The increase is primarily due to higher
interest and property operating expense.  Interest expense for both the three
and nine months ended September 30, 1994 increased from the corresponding
periods in 1993, reflecting the compounding of interest on the Zero Coupon
Loan.  Property operating expense also increased for the nine month period due
primarily to increases in electricity costs, payroll, association and
professional fees and bad debt expense.

Mall tenant sales (exclusive of anchor tenants) for the eight months ended
August 31, 1994 were $33,984,000, a decrease of 2.7% from $34,936,000 in the
comparable period in 1993.  Mature tenant sales for the eight months ended
August 31, 1994 decreased 3.4% from $31,665,000 in the 1993 period to
$30,600,000 in 1994.  A mature tenant is defined as a tenant that has been open
for business and operating out of the same store for twelve months or more.
The General Partner attributes the decrease to a slight decline in occupancy at
the Mall and a decline in consumer spending on softgoods, particularly apparel,
a trend experienced by retailers across the country.  At September 30, 1994 and
1993, the Mall was 90.6% and 94.1% occupied, respectively, exclusive of anchor
tenants.
