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



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

   Net income for the three-month period ended March 31, 1997 decreased by
$34,000 as compared with net income for the three-month period ended March 31,
1996.  This decrease was primarily due to an increase in general and
administrative expenses.  Such increase was due, in part, to a nonrecurring
increase in administrative reimbursements.  Lease revenues decreased due to the
modification of the Furon Company rent subsequent to the sale of two properties
in the third quarter of 1996.  The decrease in Furon rent was partially offset
by a decrease in interest expense as a portion of the proceeds from the sale of
two Furon properties was used to partially prepay the mortgage loans
collateralized by the Furon properties.  Interest expense also decreased as a
result of the refinancing of the limited recourse mortgage loan collateralized
by the Childtime Childcare, Inc. properties at a lower rate of interest in
December 1996.


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

   There has been no material change in the Partnership's financial condition
since December 31, 1996.  Cash provided from operations and equity investments
of $1,656,000 was sufficient to pay distributions to partners of $1,414,000 and
$242,000 of total scheduled principal payment installments of $384,000 on the
Partnership's limited recourse mortgage debt.  There was no increase in the
distribution rate in April, 1997 as the Partnership is attempting to stabilize
its cash balances.  Management will continue to monitor cash flow to determine
whether current cash flow is sufficient to maintain the current distribution
rate.  Cash flow for the quarter was impacted by a rent arrearge of $241,000
from Red Bank Distribution, Inc., representing five months of the equity
component of Red Bank's rent.  The Partnership is currently seeking its remedies
against Red Bank in an effort to collect all amounts due including interest and
penalties.  The Partnership's cash position has benefited from the Corporate
General Partner's continuing its voluntary, temporary deferral of the collection
of $1,510,000 of accrued leasing fees.

   The maturity of the mortgage loan collateralized by the Furon properties has
been extended through June 1, 1997.  The General Partners believe that the
Partnership will be able to refinance the loan, in part because there are more
than ten years remaining on the Furon lease.  However, the lender's due
diligence process has not been completed.  A limited recourse loan on the Red
Bank property of $2,175,000 continues to be extended on a short-term basis.
There is no assurance that additional extensions will be granted.

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