     Note 5.  Discontinued Operations:
              ----------------------- 

     The Partnership and Corporate Property Associates 4 ("CPA(R):4"), an
     affiliate, purchased a hotel property in Kenner, Louisiana, in June 1988 as
     tenants-in-common with 53.617% and 46.383% interests, respectively.  The
     Partnership and CPA(R):4 assumed operating control of the hotel in 1992
     after evicting the lessee due to its financial difficulties.  On July 30,
     1996, the Partnership and CPA(R):4 completed a transaction with American
     General Hospitality Operating Partnership L.P. (the "Operating
     Partnership"), the operating partnership of a newly-formed real estate
     investment trust, American General Hospitality, Inc. ("AGH") in which the
     Partnership and CPA(R):4 received 920,672 limited partnership units (of
     which the Partnership's share was 493,664 units) in exchange for the hotel
     property and its operations, a cash contribution of $388,331 (of which the
     Partnership's share was $208,211) and the Operating Partnership's
     assumption of the Partnership's and CPA(R):4's mortgage loan obligation
     collateralized by the hotel property (of which the Partnership's share was
     $3,915,439).

     The exchange of the hotel property for limited partnership units will
     initially be treated as a noncash exchange for tax and financial reporting
     purposes.  After one year, the Partnership will have the right to convert
     its equity interest in the operating partnership to shares of common stock
     in AGH, which recently completed an initial public offering, with such
     shares registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  The
     Partnership's carrying value for the limited partnership units of
     $5,457,793 is based on the historical basis of assets transferred, net of
     liabilities assumed by the Operating Partnership ($5,227,793); cash
     contributed ($208,211) and costs incurred to complete the exchange
     ($21,789).  The Partnership's interest in the limited partnership is being
     accounted for under the cost method.

     Note 6.  Sale of Real Estate:
              ------------------- 

     In January 1990, the Partnership and Corporate Property Associates 9, L.P.
     ("CPA(R):9"), an affiliate, purchased nine properties as tenants-in-common
     with 32.28% and 67.72% ownership interests, respectively, and entered into
     a master lease with Furon Company ("Furon").  In August 1993, the
     Partnership and CPA(R):9 consented to Furon's sublease of properties in
     Liverpool and Twinsburg, Ohio to IER Industries, Inc. ("IER") through July
     2007, the end of Furon's initial lease term.  In connection with consenting
     to the sublease, the Partnership granted IER a purchase option on the two
     subleased properties in consideration for an irrevocable payment of $75,000
     (of which the Partnership's share was $24,210).  The $75,000 paid in 1993
     would be credited to the IER's purchase price for the properties if the
     option were exercised.  On February 15, 1996, IER notified the Partnership
     and CPA(R):9 that it was exercising its purchase option.  The sublease
     provided that the option price will be the greater of fair market value
     determined pursuant to an appraisal process or the sum of (i) $1,450,000
     and (ii) any prepayment charges resulting from any mandatory prepayment to
     the lender on the mortgage loan collateralized by the nine Furon
     properties.

     On September 9, 1996, the Partnership and CPA(R):9 sold the two properties
     to IER for $1,465,495.  Net of its share of the option payment received in
     1993, prepayment charges and other costs, the Partnership's share of net
     proceeds from the sale was $442,496 of which $287,996 was used to pay a
     mandatory prepayment on the mortgage.  In connection with the sale, the
     Partnership recognized a gain of $21,697.  As a result of the sale and the
     related mortgage prepayment, annual rent from Furon and debt service on the
     Furon properties mortgage loan will decrease by approximately $55,000 and
     $38,400, respectively.

                Item 2. - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION OF OPERATIONS
                -----------------------------------------------


     Results of Operations:
     --------------------- 

        Income from continuing operations for the three-month and nine-month
     periods ended September 30, 1996 increased by $626,000 and $1,543,000,
     respectively, as compared with the same periods ended September 30, 1995.
     Included in results for the current three-month and nine-month periods are
     the benefit from certain nonrecurring other income items totalling $109,000
     and $353,000, respectively.  The increase in income from continuing
     operations was due to increases in lease revenues and other interest and
     investment income, and decreases in interest, depreciation and property
     expenses.  The increase in lease revenues was due to rent increases on the
     properties leased to Detroit Diesel Corporation in July 1995 and Furon
     Company ("Furon") in January 1996, the restructuring of the United
     Stationers Supply Co. lease in March 1995 and the commencement of the lease
     with the United States Postal Service (the "Postal Service") in May 1996.
     The increase in other interest and investment income was due to investment
     income of $136,000 from the new investment in American General Hospitality
     Operating L.P. (the "Operating Partnership").  The Partnership acquired
     this investment on July 30, 1996 when it exchanged an interest in its hotel
     property in Kenner, Louisiana (and related assets and liabilities including
     the transfer of a mortgage loan obligation on the property) for limited
     partnership units in the Operating Partnership.  The decrease in interest
     expense was due to the satisfaction of the mortgage loan collateralized by
     the Advanced System Applications, Inc. ("ASA") property which fully
     amortized in March 1996, the transfer of the debt obligation on the hotel
     property to the Operating Partnership and the continuing principal
     amortization of other mortgage debt.  The decrease in depreciation was due
     to lower charges as a result of the sale of the Furon properties and the
     transfer of the Kenner hotel property.  The decrease in property expense
     for the nine-month period was due to the successful resolution in the
     second quarter of 1996 of the Partnership's dispute relating to the
     Amerisig, Inc. ("Amerisg") property.  With the sale of two properties,
     annual rent under the Furon lease will decrease by $55,000; however, cash
     flow (rental less debt service on the related mortgage debt) from the Furon
     properties will decrease by only $16,600 as annual debt service on the loan
     collateralized by the Furon properties will be reduced by $38,400 as the
     debt service schedule was reamortized after a partial prepayment on the
     Furon mortgage loan was paid from the proceeds of the sale of two Furon
     properties.

        Income from the discontinued operations was not comparable as the
     disposition of the hotel operation occurred on July 30, 1996; such
     operations were not in effect for the full current periods.  As a result of
     the transaction with the Operating Partnership, the Partnership expects to
     realize investment income of approximately $805,000 per year of which
     $136,000 has been recognized for the two months such investment has been
     held, as the Operating Partnership declared a distribution to partners in
     September 1996.  Although the Partnership's income will decrease as income
     from the hotel operation exceeded projected income from the Operating
     Partnership investment, Management believes that the Partnership would have
     had to continue to invest significant resources to periodically fund the
     capital improvements needed to remain competitive in operating the hotel.
     For instance, the Partnership realized cash flow after debt service from
     the hotel in 1995 of $1,184,000; however, the Partnership funded
     improvements in excess of $867,000 in 1994.  Management hopes that the
     exchange will eliminate the uncertainty and fluctuation in cash flow
     relating to operating a single hotel as the Operating Partnership owns a
     diversified portfolio of hotel properties.  The Partnership has an option
     after July 30, 1997 to exchange its limited partnership units for shares of
     American General Hospitality, Inc. ("AGH"), a publicly traded real estate
     investment trust, which holds the majority interest in the Operating
     Partnership.

        Under its agreement with the Partnership, ASA, whose lease expires in
     June 1997, had been entitled to share one-third of all rents from lessees
     for space it had relinquished.  Under a separate agreement, the Partnership
     is not sharing any of the Postal Service's rent with ASA and is receiving
     all the rents of an ASA subtenant in consideration for a reduction of ASA's
     monthly rent by approximately $46,100 to $241,500 and releasing ASA from
     its lease obligations for bearing the costs of repair and maintenance,
     insurance and real estate taxes.  Such costs are now the responsibility of
     the Partnership.  Monthly rentals from the Postal Service and the ASA
     subtenant are $77,000.

                Item 2. - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION OF OPERATIONS
                -----------------------------------------------



        Other income consisted of $244,000 relating to release from a security
     deposit obligation in the second quarter and a $109,000 payment received in
     the third quarter from the bankruptcy trustee administering the bankruptcy
     of the former lessee of the hotel property in Livonia, Michigan in the
     third quarter.  While there may be additional distributions made on the
     Partnership's claim against the former lessee, the Partnership recognizes
     income from any settlement as distributions are received.  There can be no
     assurance that the Partnership will receive additional amounts under its
     claim against the former lessee.


     Financial Condition:
     ------------------- 

        There has been no material change in the Partnership's financial
     condition since December 31, 1995.  The Partnership's cash provided from
     operations and distributions from equity investments totalling $8,603,000
     was sufficient to fund distributions to partners of $4,900,000 and pay
     scheduled mortgage principal payments of $1,481,000.  While the Partnership
     has substantially funded a tenant improvement allowance which was required
     under the Postal Service lease, the Partnership expects to incur additional
     costs in retrofitting the ASA property for multi-tenant use.  A significant
     portion of such costs may not be incurred until after ASA fully vacates the
     property at the end of its lease.  The Partnership is committed to fund up
     to $3,500,000 for an expansion of the Amerisg facility in Olive Branch,
     Mississippi by no later than March 1998.  The mortgage lender on the Olive
     Branch property has a commitment to supply $2,400,000 of financing for the
     expansion.  Based on current projections, the Partnership should be able to
     fund the $1,100,000 of equity on the expansion project from cash reserves.

        As a real estate investment trust, the Operating Partnership has an
     obligation to distribute 95% of its taxable income in order to retain its
     special Federal income tax status.  Since the Operating Partnership owns a
     majority of the Operating Partnership limited partnership units, the
     Operating Partnership has a fiduciary obligation to use its best efforts
     for the Operating Partnership to receive distributions which can be passed
     through to the Operating Partnership shareholders in order to meet the tax
     distribution objective.  Accordingly, with the exchange, the Partnership
     should achieve less fluctuation in cash flow and has eliminated the need
     for allocating funds for capital improvements.  Further, with the option to
     exchange the Operating Partnership units for the Operating Partnership
     shares, the Partnership will have the opportunity to sell its interests at
     a readily determinable market value.


          The General Partners are currently investigating ways to provide
     liquidity for limited partners on a tax-effective basis.
