PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
        OF OPERATIONS

     Scottsdale  Land  Trust  Limited  Partnership  (the  Registrant)   received
$50,000,000 in gross proceeds from its public  offering of the Units on November
23, 1988. After deducting  organizational and offering expenses,  the Registrant
had $43,250,000 in net proceeds available for investment.  The net proceeds were
used to purchase the property (The Perimeter  Center),  fund the construction of
the  infrastructure  and  fund  the  $8.5  million  loan  to  Franchise  Finance
Corporation of America (FFCA),  in accordance  with the  partnership  agreement.
Pursuant to the loan agreement,  FFCA makes monthly payments of interest only to
the Registrant and is current on such payments.  The entire principal balance of
the loan is due in May 2000,  or earlier  if all of The  Perimeter  Center  land
parcels are sold prior to that date.  When the Registrant  receives full payment
on the loan, the cash proceeds will be  distributed  to the limited  partners in
accordance with the partnership agreement,  net of cash reserves, if any, needed
for  future  operations  of  the  Registrant.  Cash  reserves  remaining  in the
Registrant at June 30, 1999 total approximately $1.9 million. These reserves may
be used from time to time to pay amounts  assessed by the city or county  taxing
authorities for  developmental or other costs. The Registrant's  primary sources
of revenue are land sales,  interest  payments received from FFCA under the loan
agreement and interest earned on the Registrant's temporary investments. As land
parcels  are  sold,  distributions  of the net cash  sale  proceeds  are made in
accordance  with the  partnership  agreement.  Once all of The Perimeter  Center
parcels are sold,  the  Registrant  will  liquidate and distribute its assets in
accordance with the partnership agreement.

     During the quarter ended June 30, 1999 (the period),  the Registrant closed
no land sale transactions; therefore, there were no cash distributions declared.
At June 30, 1999,  the  Registrant  had five parcels of land  (approximately  25
acres)  under  contract for sale,  at a price  aggregating  approximately  $11.7
million,  to four  unaffiliated  third parties.  The original cost of these five
parcels totaled  approximately $5.3 million. One of these parcels,  representing
4.5 acres,  was sold subsequent to June 30, 1999 for  approximately  $2 million.
The parcel had a total original cost of  approximately  $890,000 and closing and
other costs of  approximately  $135,000.  This parcel sale resulted in a gain in
July 1999 totaling approximately $1 million.

     Approximately  60 acres  (excluding the parcels in escrow) remain available
for sale and the Registrant has entered into  preliminary  negotiations  for the
sale of several of the remaining land parcels.  The Registrant  cannot determine
which,  if any, of these  negotiations  will result in the sale of a land parcel
and,  therefore,  cannot  predict  the  timing  or  amount  of any  future  cash
distributions.

     Total revenues were  approximately  $234,000 for the quarter ended June 30,
1999 as compared to  approximately  $1.3 million for the  comparable  quarter in
1998.  Total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 1999 were  approximately
$471,000 as compared to approximately  $3.4 million for the same period in 1998.
Revenues in 1998 were higher  because land sales  comprised  the majority of the
revenues  in 1998.  Interest  on  investments  and other  income  for the period
decreased by approximately  $12,000 from the comparable period of the prior year
due to the decrease in temporary  investment  securities held during the quarter
ended June 30, 1999. The higher cash balance in 1998 resulted from net land sale
proceeds  held  during that  quarter  prior to  distribution  of the cash to the
limited partners. Year-to-date amounts were similarly affected.

     Total  expenses  (excluding  the cost of land sales) for the quarter  ended
June  30,  1999  were  comparable  to the  prior  year.  Year to  date  expenses
(excluding the cost of land sales)  increased by  approximately  $11,000 for the
six month period over the  comparable  period of the prior year due primarily to
an increase in property taxes which was offset somewhat by a decrease in general
partner fees. Property taxes increased,  despite the sale of land parcels during
the past twelve months,  due to higher assessed land values. The general partner
fee  decreased  during the six month  period over the  comparable  period of the
prior year  because the fee is based on Assets Under  Management,  as defined in
the  partnership  agreement,  and as parcels are sold the general partner fee is
reduced accordingly.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

     The financial  instruments  held by the Registrant at June 30, 1999 consist
of cash  equivalents  and a loan  receivable  from an affiliate.  The Registrant
intends  to  hold  the  investments  to  maturity;  therefore,  these  financial
instruments do not subject the  Registrant to a material  exposure to changes in
interest rates.
