Notes to the Financial Statements

The unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the Partnership's annual 1995 audited financial statements within Form 10-K.

The unaudited financial statements include all adjustments which are, in the
opinion of management, necessary to present a fair statement of financial
position as of March 31, 1996 and the results of operations and cash flows for
the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995 and the statement of changes in
partners' capital (deficit) for the three months ended March 31, 1996. Results
of operations for the period are not necessarily indicative of the results to
be expected for the full year.

The following significant event has occurred subsequent to fiscal year 1995,
which requires disclosure in this interim report per Regulation S-X, Rule
10-01, Paragraph (a)(5).

Note 1:

On October 29, 1995, the Partnership executed a settlement agreement (the
"Settlement") with 160 Water Street Associates, G.L.O. Management, Inc. and
George Rapee (collectively, the "Borrowers")  and The New England Mutual Life
Insurance Company ( the " First Mortgagee").  Pursuant to the Settlement,  the
Partnership is entitled to receive from the Borrowers $1.125 million in cash
and recover  approximately $3,015,000 of escrow funds which were held back from
the original mortgage loan proceeds, in exchange for the full and complete
discharge of the Partnership's loan in connection with a pre-packaged
bankruptcy filing to restructure the Borrower's debt.  In February 1996, the
Settlement was approved by a majority of the Limited Partnership interests
through a proxy solicitation dated January 2, 1996.

On February 8, 1996, certain of the Borrowers filed petitions for relief under
Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code with the United States
Bankruptcy Court for the southern District of New York.  Simultaneously
therewith, such borrowers filed a "pre- packaged" plan of  reorganization
which,  among other things, incorporated the Settlement.  On February 29, 1996,
the Bankruptcy Court confirmed the plan of reorganization and approved the
Settlement.

On March 13, 1996, the plan of reorganization and the Settlement was
implemented which resulted in the Partnership receiving $4,139,962.  The
Partnership intends to distribute the net proceeds resulting from the
Settlement (less transaction costs, Partnership indebtedness and any
outstanding liabilities) to the Unitholders and the General Partner, and work
towards the dissolution of the Partnership thereafter.



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

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On February 6, 1989, the Partnership originated a zero coupon second mortgage
loan (the "160 Water Street Loan") in the amount of $15,200,000 to 160 Water
Street Associates Limited Partnership (the "Borrowers"), a New York limited
partnership which owns 160 Water Street (the "Property"), a twenty-four story
office building located in New York City's Financial District.  The 160 Water
Street Loan is secured by a second mortgage on the leasehold interests of the
Property and is subordinate to a first mortgage note held by New England Mutual
Life Insurance Corp. (the "First Mortgagee") in the original principal amount
of $35,000,000.

Since April 29, 1992, the Borrowers were in default under the terms of both the
first mortgage and the 160 Water Street Loan, in part as a result of declining
occupancies at the Property. The declining occupancies reflect the generally
depressed market conditions for office space in downtown Manhattan as well as
certain problems inherent in the Property, particularly the presence of
asbestos in significant portions of the Property.

While the Borrowers have been unable to cure the default with respect to the
first mortgage, the First Mortgagee refrained from initiating a foreclosure
proceeding due to ongoing negotiations with respect to a potential
restructuring.  These negotiations resulted in the execution of a settlement
(the "Settlement") on October 29, 1995 between the Partnership, the Borrowers
and the First Mortgagee.  Pursuant to the terms of the Settlement, the
Partnership was entitled to (i) receive from the Borrowers $1.125 million in
cash; and (ii) recover approximately $3,015,000 of escrow funds which were held
back from the original mortgage loan proceeds, in exchange for the full and
complete discharge of the Partnership's loan in connection with a pre-packaged
bankruptcy filing to restructure the Borrowers' debt.  In February 1996, the
Settlement was approved by a majority of the Limited Partnership interests
through a proxy solicitation dated January 2, 1996.

On February 8, 1996, certain of the Borrowers filed petitions for relief under
Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code with the United States
Bankruptcy Court for the southern District of New York.  Simultaneously
therewith, such borrowers filed a "pre- packaged" plan of reorganization which,
among other things, incorporated the Settlement.  On February 29, 1996, the
Bankruptcy Court confirmed the plan of reorganization and approved the
Settlement.  On March 13, 1996, the plan of reorganization and the Settlement
was implemented, resulting in the Partnership receiving $4,139,962.  The
Partnership intends to distribute the net proceeds resulting from the
Settlement (less the transaction costs, Partnership indebtedness and any
outstanding liabilities) to the Unitholders and the General Partner, and work
towards the dissolution of the Partnership thereafter.

In consideration of the foregoing, the increased vacancies at the Property, and
the deterioration of the New York City real estate market, the General Partner
fully reserved for the accreted loan balance in 1992.  All interest on the loan
was being fully reserved as it accreted through March 13, 1996.  Pursuant to
the Settlement, the Partnership recorded a recovery of valuation allowance as
of December 31, 1995, in the amount of $4,139,962, which reflects the amount of
funds received from the Borrowers to fulfill their debt obligation to the
Partnership on March 13, 1996.

At March 31, 1996, the Partnership's cash balance totaled $4,042,566, compared
with $14,301 at December 31, 1995.  The increase is primarily attributable to
the receipt of  $4,139,962 on March 13, 1996, pursuant to the terms of the
Settlement.

Organizational costs and deferred charges, net of accumulated amortization,
decreased from $63,250 at December 31, 1995 to $0 at March 31, 1996.  The
decrease reflects the write-off of unamortized organizational costs upon
disposition of the Partnership's loan at the closing of the Settlement.

Accounts payable and accrued expenses decreased from $239,938 at December 31,
1995 to $127,579 at March 31, 1996.  The decrease is primarily attributable to
payment of legal and professional fees associated with the Settlement.

Results of Operations

The Partnership reported a net loss of $73,529 for the three months ended March
31, 1996, compared with a net loss of $47,451 for the corresponding period in
1995.   The  increased net loss is primarily due to the write-off of
unamortized organizational costs upon disposition of the Partnerships loan at
the closing of the Settlement.
