    Center.  The Partnership's interests in Taxter Corporate Park and the
    partnership which owns interests in Chesterbrook Corporate Center are
    accounted for on the equity method.  

    The Partnership's records are maintained on the accrual basis of
    accounting for financial reporting and tax purposes.  
    
    Net income per Unit amounts are calculated by dividing net income
    allocated to Limited Partners, in accordance with the Partnership
    Agreement, by the weighted average number of Units outstanding.
    
    In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial
    statements reflect all adjustments necessary to present fairly the
    results for the interim periods.

2.  Related Party Transactions

    An affiliate of the Managing General Partner provided property
    management services for two properties and for five buildings at the
    Chesterbrook Corporate Center as of September 30, 1994 and 1993.  The
    Partnership paid the affiliate management fees of approximately $130,000 
    and $113,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1994 and 1993,
    respectively.

    Another affiliate of the Managing General Partner performs
    administrative functions, processes investor transactions and prepares
    tax information for the Partnership.  For the nine months ended
    September 30, 1994 and 1993, the Partnership incurred approximately
    $302,000 for these services.  

    As of September 30, 1994, the affiliates were owed approximately $79,000 
    for these services.

3.  Subsequent Event
    
    On October 28, 1994, the Partnership paid a cash distribution of $5.00
    per Unit to the Limited Partners.  The total cash distribution amounted
    to $1,691,317, with $1,522,185 distributed to the Limited Partners and
    $169,132 to the General Partners.

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

  Liquidity and Capital Resources

    The Partnership raised $152,218,500 in a public offering of 304,437
units which was terminated in 1988.  The Partnership has no plans to raise
additional capital.

    The Partnership has made four investments in partnerships on an all-cash
basis.  The Partnership's acquisition program has been completed.  No
additional investments are planned.

    Many real estate markets are stabilizing primarily due to the continued
absence of significant construction activity.   However, the recovery of the
office market will be slow because tenant demand is weak as a result of
continued downsizing by many major corporations.  In addition, the Southern
California office market is still weak because the impact of defense
industry reductions has not been offset by growth in other industries.

    The Partnership's liquidity depends upon its properties' cash flows from
operations and expenditures for tenant improvements and leasing commissions
in connection with the leasing of vacant space.  During the nine months
ended September 30, 1994, all of the Partnership's properties and joint
venture interests have generated positive cash flow from operations, and it
is anticipated that they will continue to do so.
    
    During the nine months ended September 30, 1994, the Partnership's cash
flow from operations and distributions received from joint ventures exceeded
distributions to investors and capital expenditures.  The Partnership
expects that for the remainder of 1994, capital expenditures and cash
distributions will be funded from operating cash flows, distributions from
joint ventures and exisiting cash reserves.  The Partnership had reduced its
distribution rate in 1992 in order to accumulate such cash reserves.  

    During the nine months ended September 30, 1994, the Partnership
incurred approximately $732,000 of tenant improvements and leasing
commissions (net of capital contributions from the minority interest),
relating to Pasadena Financial Center.  The Partnership also invested
approximately $770,000, its share of capital expenditures, in the Taxter and
Chesterbrook joint ventures.

    The Vanguard Group, the largest tenant in the Chesterbrook joint
venture, vacated its space at one of the buildings in November 1993 and will
vacate its remaining space upon the expiration of its leases between
November 1994 and November 1995.  In September 1994, the Partnership has
signed leases with new tenants to fill a significant portion of the space
vacated by Vanguard between November 1993 and November 1994.  The
Partnership's share of capital expenditures which will result from these new
leases is approximately $1,725,000.  In addition, the Partnership expects
to continue to fund significant capital expenditures in order to attract new
tenants to the remaining space to be vacated by Vanguard.

    Pasadena Financial Center has experienced damage to the exterior walls
of the building due to water seepage during heavy rains.  The Partnership
is determining the cost of required repairs, and has initiated a lawsuit
against the original building contractor and architect to seek recovery of
a portion of these costs.

    Also, Countrywide Credit Corp., which rents approximately 55% of the
space at Pasadena Financial Center, is planning to consolidate its
operations in Pasadena, and has indicated it may seek to vacate
approximately half the space it leases at the property, either by sub-
leasing its space or entering into a financial settlement to terminate
certain of its leases.  If Countrywide Credit Corp. terminates certain of
its leases in a financial settlement, the Partnership expects to fund
significant capital expenditures in order to attract new tenants to this
property.

    The Partnership plans to fund its share of certain capital improvements
and security enhancements at the Taxter property in 1994 and 1995.

    On October 28, 1994, the Partnership paid the third quarter distribution
of $5.00 per Unit to the Limited Partners.  The total cash distribution
amounted to $1,691,317, with $1,522,185 distributed to the Limited Partners
and $169,132 to the General Partners.

    Operations

    The only significant fluctuation in the Partnership's operating results
is the increase in property operating expenses for the nine months ended
September 30, 1994 compared to 1993.  This increase is due to increased
costs incurred at Pasadena Financial Center.

    A summary of markets in which the Partnership's office properties are
located and the performance of each property is as follows:

    Chesterbrook Corporate Center is located in Valley Forge, Pennsylvania,
a market in which the vacancy rate is approximately 14%.  Occupancy at the
property remained at 84% during the third quarter of 1994.  The remaining
Vanguard leases, for 22% of the property's space, expire between November
1994 and November 1995.  In September 1994, the joint venturers signed a
five-year lease with a new tenant to fill approximately 12% of the
property's space and a seven-year lease with a new tenant to fill
approximately 9.5% of the property's space; it is expected that both new
tenants will begin to occupy their space no later than January 1, 1995.


    Vanguard is vacating its space to move into its own newly-constructed
space in this market.  This, and other new construction in the Valley Forge
area, will cause the office market to deteriorate further.  The leases of
the other major tenant at the property (occupying 25% of the space) expire
in 1998.

    The office market in Westchester County, New York, the location of
Taxter Corporate Park, has experienced a significant decline.  The current
vacancy level in this market is approximately 25%.  It is unlikely that this
vacant space will be absorbed in this market for several years.  Occupancy
at the property remained at 99% during the third quarter of 1994.  No
significant leases expire before 1996.  One of the tenants had purchased a
long-term leasehold interest in approximately 20% of the space at the
property; this tenant does not pay rent, but is responsible for its share
of real estate taxes and certain operating expenses.

    The Reston market in Virginia, the location of Tech Park Reston, has a
vacancy rate of 12% due to the contraction of the high-tech and defense
firms which are the major tenants in the market.  The leases with Sprint
Communications, the sole tenant, expire in 2003.  Sprint has the option to
terminate its leases on two of the three buildings beginning in 1997. 

    In Pasadena, California, the location of Pasadena Financial Center, the
overall vacancy rate is approximately 16% as of September 30, 1994. The
vacancy rate is expected to increase further during the remainder of 1994
due to the anticipated reduction of space requirements by three large
corporations headquartered in Pasadena.  In the third quarter of 1994,
occupancy at the property remained at 100%.  The majority of the leases with
Countrywide Credit, which rents approximately 55% of the space at the
property, expire in 2001.  However, as discussed above, Countrywide Credit
has indicated it may seek to reduce the space it leases at the property. 
No other significant leases at the property expire before 1997.  The
property was not adversely affected by the Los Angeles earthquake in January
1994.

    Inflation

    Inflation has been consistently low during the periods presented in the
financial statements and, as a result, has not had a significant effect on
the operations of the Partnership or its properties.
