                         HALLWOOD REALTY PARTNERS, L.P.
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                  FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999
                                   (UNAUDITED)




1   ORGANIZATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES

    Hallwood Realty Partners, L.P. ("HRP"), a publicly traded Delaware limited
    partnership, operates in the commercial real estate business segment. HRP's
    activities include the acquisition, ownership and operation of its
    commercial real estate assets. The limited partners' interests, or units,
    are traded on the American Stock Exchange under the symbol "HRY". As of
    September 30, 1999, there were 1,672,556 units outstanding.

    Hallwood Realty, LLC ("Realty" or the "General Partner"), a Delaware limited
    liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of The Hallwood Group
    Incorporated ("Hallwood"), is HRP's general partner and is responsible for
    asset management of HRP and its real estate properties. Hallwood Commercial
    Real Estate, LLC ("HCRE"), another wholly-owned subsidiary of Hallwood,
    provides property management services for HRP's real estate properties.

    The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Hallwood
    Realty Partners, L.P. have been prepared in accordance with the instructions
    to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not
    include all of the information and footnote disclosures required by
    generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.
    In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a
    fair presentation have been included. These financial statements should be
    read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and
    related disclosures thereto included in Form 10-K for the year ended
    December 31, 1998. HRP had no items of other comprehensive income in the
    periods presented.

    The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
    accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
    assumptions that affect the reported amounts of certain assets, liabilities,
    revenues, and expenses as of and for the reporting periods. Actual results
    may differ from these estimates. Operating results for the nine months ended
    September 30, 1999 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
    expected for the year ending December 31, 1999.

    Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133 "Accounting of
    Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" was issued in June 1998 and
    the original effective date for periods beginning after June 15, 1999 has
    been extended one year to June 15, 2000. HRP is currently not planning on
    early adoption and has not had an opportunity to evaluate the impact of the
    provisions on its consolidated financial statements relating to future
    adoption.


2   TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

    Realty and HCRE are compensated for services provided to HRP and its real
    estate properties and are set forth in the following table for the periods

     (b)  As of September 30, 1999, $1,230,000 of the 1999 lease commissions
          accrued are scheduled to be paid in the year 2000. See Note 4.

3   COMPUTATION OF NET INCOME PER UNIT

    Basic earnings per unit is computed by dividing net income attributable to
    the limited partners' interests by the weighted average number of units
    outstanding. Earnings per unit assuming dilution is computed by dividing net
    income attributable to the limited partners' interests by the weighted
    average number of units and potential units outstanding. Options to acquire
    units were issued during 1995 and are considered to be potential units. The
    number of potential units is computed using the treasury stock method which
    assumes that the increase in the number of units is reduced by the number of
    units which could have been repurchased by HRP with the proceeds from the
    exercise of these options. The following table illustrates the amounts used
    to calculate the weighted average number of units outstanding:

4   PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT

    During the second quarter of 1999, HRP began construction of a 6-story
    office building containing approximately 151,000 net rentable square feet.
    It is being constructed on 6.1 acres of land that was acquired in May 1997
    within the Corporate Square complex in Atlanta, Georgia. A 20-year lease
    with the General Services Administration ("GSA") for five of the floors has
    been executed with occupancy anticipated to take place by July 2000. The
    building, tenant improvements, lease commissions and loan costs are
    estimated to be $19,000,000 (excluding the land). In August 1999, HRP paid
    off the outstanding loan balance of $475,000 that was secured by the land
    and closed on interim-construction loan financing that will fund up to
    $13,762,000 of the costs. The amount outstanding under the
    interim-construction loan as of September 30, 1999 was $3,862,000. The
    interim-construction loan calls for interest payments only with an interest
    rate of LIBOR plus 170 basis points (7.125% as of September 30, 1999). HRP
    anticipates repaying the interim- construction loan at its maturity in
    August 2000 from proceeds of a $19,000,000 to $20,000,000 permanent loan. As
    of September 30, 1999, HRP has incurred and capitalized $4,940,000 of the
    construction costs. HRP has paid $1,230,000, or half, of the lease
    commissions incurred; the remaining half will be paid when the tenant takes
    occupancy of the space. In November 1999, the GSA lease was amended to
    include the remaining floor of the building and accordingly, HRP incurred a
    lease commission of $502,000, of which half will be paid in the fourth
    quarter of 1999 and half when the tenant takes occupancy of the space.



5   PROPERTY ACQUISITION

    In August 1999, HRP acquired two 3-story office buildings in San Diego,
    California (Rancho Mission Plaza) containing approximately 40,300 net
    rentable square feet on 1.6 acres of land for $2,352,000 in cash. Prior to
    the acquisition, management determined certain improvements were required
    and therefore $558,000 has been budgeted for the needed improvements.
    Currently, the property is 51% leased and occupied. HRP is in negotiations
    to fully lease the buildings with occupancy to coincide with the completion
    of the property improvements, which are anticipated to be completed by April
    2000.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                  FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999
                                   (UNAUDITED)




6   LITIGATION

    Reference is made to Note 9 to the audited consolidated financial statements
    contained in Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998. Beginning in
    1997, HRP has been involved in two lawsuits with Gotham Partners, L.P. The
    first complaint seeks access to certain books and records of HRP, a list of
    the limited partners and reimbursement of the plaintiff's expenses. The
    second complaint alleges claims of breach of fiduciary duties, breach of
    HRP's partnership agreement, fraud, and as to Hallwood, aiding and abetting
    these alleged breaches. On June 27, 1997, the parties entered into a
    Stipulation and Order under which HRP provided to plaintiff copies of
    certain of the documents requested. The other claims in the two actions
    remain outstanding and the parties are proceeding with discovery.

    HRP's management believes that the claims are without merit and intend to
    defend the cases vigorously, but because of their early stages, cannot
    predict the outcome of the claims or any possible effect an adverse outcome
    might have. HRP is from time to time involved in various legal proceedings
    and claims which arise in the ordinary course of business. These matters are
    generally covered by insurance. Management believes that the resolution of
    these matters will not have a material adverse effect on HRP's financial
    position, cash flow or operations.



7   SUBSEQUENT EVENT

    In October 1999, HRP acquired a 5-building industrial park in Dearborn,
    Michigan (Gulley Road Industrial Park) containing approximately 154,000 net
    rentable square feet on 11 acres of land. The property is 100% occupied. The
    purchase price of approximately $8,179,000 included the assumption of an
    outstanding mortgage of $5,149,000. The loan fully amortizes over the next
    eleven and a half years, matures in May 2011, and has an interest rate of
    7.375%.

Item 2.    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
           RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


THIRD QUARTER OF 1999 COMPARED TO THE THIRD QUARTER OF 1998

REVENUE FROM PROPERTY OPERATIONS increased $624,000, or 4.4%, for the third
quarter of 1999, compared to the 1998 third quarter. The following table
illustrates the components of the change, in thousands:


<TABLE>
<S>                                               <C>
          Rental income, net                      $526
          Other property income                     98
                                                  ----
             Net increase                         $624
                                                  ====
</TABLE>

Overall, net rental income increased primarily due to higher rental rates,
partially offset by a slight decline in average occupancy between the comparable
periods from 93.5% to 93.4%. Other property income increased primarily due to
the receipt of non-recurring parking revenues and due to an increase in tenants'
utility cost reimbursements.

INTEREST INCOME was consistent with the prior year quarter, increasing $1,000.

PROPERTY OPERATING EXPENSES increased $156,000, or 2.7%, for the third quarter
of 1999, compared to the same period in 1998. The increase is comprised
primarily of the following components:

      o  Real estate taxes increased $185,000 primarily due to higher taxable
         values at Executive Park, Corporate Square and Bellevue Corporate
         Plaza.
      o  Combined, all other operating costs decreased $29,000, or less than 1%,
         between the periods.

INTEREST EXPENSE increased $223,000, or 7.0%, for the third quarter of 1999 as
compared to the same period in 1998. The 1998 period included $421,000 of
non-cash amortization of Allfirst Building's (formerly named First Maryland
Building) loan forgiveness, which was eliminated in November 1998 as the result
of the retirement and refinancing of that loan. Partially offsetting this was a
reduction in cash mortgage interest of $207,000, primarily as the result of
reduced contractual interest rates from 1998 loan refinancings, and due to
higher miscellaneous interest of $9,000.

DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION EXPENSE was consistent with the prior year
quarter, decreasing $9,000, or 0.3%.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES increased $743,000, or 100%, for the third
quarter of 1999, as compared to the same period in 1998, primarily as a result
of an increase of $669,000 in litigation costs (see Note 6 to the consolidated
financial statements). All other costs increased $74,000 as the result of higher
personnel and occupancy costs.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - CONTINUED


FIRST NINE MONTHS OF 1999 COMPARED TO THE FIRST NINE MONTHS OF 1998


REVENUE FROM PROPERTY OPERATIONS increased $1,764,000, or 4.3%, for the first
nine months of 1999, compared to the first nine months of 1998. The following
table illustrates the components of the change, in thousands:


<TABLE>
<S>                                              <C>
          Rental income, net                     $1,213
          Other property income                     551
                                                 ------
               Net increase                      $1,764
                                                 ======
</TABLE>

Overall, net rental income increased primarily due to higher rental rates,
partially offset by a small decline in average occupancy between the comparable
periods from 93.6% to 92.7%. Other property income increased primarily due to
the receipt of non-recurring parking revenue, an increase in tenant utility
reimbursements, and increases in various tenant services.

INTEREST INCOME increased $78,000 as a result of additional earnings on
overnight investments due to higher average cash balances available for
investment between the periods.

PROPERTY OPERATING EXPENSES increased $819,000, or 4.9%, for the first nine
months of 1999, compared to the same period in 1998. The increase is comprised
primarily of the following components:

      o  Real estate taxes increased $723,000 due to non-recurring refunds of
         $388,000 received in the 1998 period for prior years' taxes and due to
         increases in current year taxable values at Executive Park, Corporate
         Square and Bellevue Corporate Plaza.
      o  Snow removal costs increased $178,000 due to a mild 1998 winter.
      o  Combined, all other operating costs decreased $82,000, or less than 1%,
         between the periods.

INTEREST EXPENSE increased $671,000, or 7.1%, for the first nine months of 1999
as compared to the same period in 1998. The 1998 period included $1,269,000 of
non-cash amortization of Allfirst Building's (formerly named First Maryland
Building) loan forgiveness, which was eliminated in November 1998 as the result
of the retirement and refinancing of that loan. Partially offsetting this was a
reduction in cash mortgage interest of $600,000, primarily as the result of
reduced contractual interest rates from 1998 loan refinancings, and due to
higher miscellaneous interest of $2,000.

DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION EXPENSE decreased $117,000, or 1.3%, primarily due
to write off of fully amortized tenant improvements in late 1998.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES increased $1,285,000, or 52.1%, for the
first nine months of 1999, as compared to 1998's first nine months, primarily as
a result of an increase of $1,216,000 in litigation costs (see Note 6 to the
consolidated financial statements).

LOSS ON EARLY EXTINGUISHMENT OF DEBT of $1,876,000 in the 1998 period represents
prepayment penalties of $1,655,000 incurred with the early payoff of loans
secured by Executive Park and Seattle Business Parks, along with the write off
of $221,000 of unamortized loan costs associated with the retired loans.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES


HRP operates in the commercial real estate business segment. HRP's activities
include the acquisition, ownership and operation of its commercial real estate
assets. While it is the General Partner's intention to operate HRP's existing
real estate investments and to acquire and operate additional real estate
investments, Realty also continually evaluates each of HRP's real estate
investments in light of current economic trends and operations to determine if
any should be considered for disposal.

As of September 30, 1999, HRP owned thirteen real estate properties located in
six states containing 5,199,000 net rentable square feet. HRP seeks to maximize
the value of its real estate by making capital and tenant improvements, by
executing marketing programs to attract and retain tenants, and by controlling
or reducing, where possible, operating expenses.

HRP's cash position decreased $453,000 during the first nine months of 1999 from
$14,497,000 as of December 31, 1998 to $14,044,000 as of September 30, 1999. The
sources of cash during the period were $6,913,000 of cash provided by operating
activities and $3,862,000 of mortgage principal proceeds from a new construction
loan. The uses of cash during the period were $3,633,000 of property and tenant
improvements, $2,781,000 of property development costs, $2,352,000 of property
acquisition costs, $2,241,000 of mortgage principal payments, and $221,000 of
loan fees and expenses.

Substantially all of the buildings in eleven of HRP's real estate properties
were encumbered by and pledged as collateral under non-recourse mortgages as of
September 30, 1999. HRP has no mortgage loans maturing or requiring balloon
principal payments until the year 2003. Based upon loan amortizations in effect,
HRP is required to pay approximately $643,000 of principal payments during the
remainder of 1999.

For 1999, HRP's revised capital budget (excluding construction project and the
acquisitions discussed in the following paragraphs) for property and tenant
improvements is approximately $6,633,000 and for lease commissions is about
$2,127,000. In the first nine months of 1999, HRP incurred $3,633,000 of
property and tenant improvements and $1,918,000 of lease commissions of these
budgeted amounts.

During the second quarter of 1999, HRP began construction of a 6-story office
building containing approximately 151,000 net rentable square feet. It is being
constructed on 6.1 acres of land that was acquired in May 1997 within the
Corporate Square complex in Atlanta, Georgia. A 20-year lease with the General
Services Administration ("GSA") for five of the floors has been executed with
occupancy anticipated to take place by July 2000. The building, tenant
improvements, lease commissions and loan costs are estimated to be $19,000,000
(excluding the land). In August 1999, HRP paid off the outstanding loan balance
of $475,000 that was secured by the land and closed on interim-construction loan
financing that will fund up to $13,762,000 of the costs. The amount outstanding
under the interim-construction loan as of September 30, 1999 was $3,862,000. The
interim-construction loan calls for interest payments only with an interest rate
of LIBOR plus 170 basis points (7.125% as of September 30, 1999). HRP
anticipates repaying the interim-construction loan at its maturity in August
2000 from proceeds of a $19,000,000 to $20,000,000 permanent loan. As of
September 30, 1999, HRP has incurred and capitalized $4,940,000 of the
construction costs. HRP has paid $1,230,000, or half, of the lease commissions
incurred; the remaining half will be paid when the tenant takes occupancy of the
space. In November 1999, the GSA lease was amended to include the remaining
floor of the building and accordingly, HRP incurred a lease commission of
$502,000, of which half will be paid in the fourth quarter of 1999 and half when
the tenant takes occupancy of the space.

In August 1999, HRP acquired two 3-story office buildings in San Diego,
California (Rancho Mission Plaza) containing approximately 40,300 net rentable
square feet on 1.6 acres of land for $2,352,000 in cash. Prior to the
acquisition, management determined certain improvements were required and
therefore $558,000 has been budgeted for the needed improvements. Currently, the
property is 51% leased and occupied. HRP is in negotiations to fully lease the
buildings with occupancy to coincide with the completion of the property
improvements, which are anticipated to be completed by April 2000.

In October 1999, HRP acquired a 5-building industrial park in Dearborn, Michigan
(Gulley Road Industrial Park) containing approximately 154,000 net rentable
square feet on 11 acres of land. The property is 100% occupied. The purchase
price of approximately $8,179,000 included the assumption of an outstanding
mortgage of $5,149,000. The loan fully amortizes over the next eleven and a half
years, matures in May 2011, and has an interest rate of 7.375%.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES (CONTINUED)  -


Each quarter Realty reviews HRP's capacity to make cash distributions. HRP has
not made any cash distributions since February, 1992. For the foreseeable
future, HRP anticipates that mortgage principal payments, tenant and capital
improvements, lease commissions, and litigation costs will be funded by net cash
from operations. The primary sources of capital to fund any future acquisitions
will be proceeds from the sale or financing of one or more of its real estate
properties.


YEAR 2000 PLAN -

HRP realizes that many of the world's information systems and/or computer
programs currently do not have the ability to recognize four digit date code
fields and accordingly, they do not have the ability to distinguish a year that
begins with "20" instead of the familiar "19". If not corrected, many computer
applications could fail, become unstable, stop working altogether, or create
erroneous or incorrect results. Therefore, many companies and organizations are
spending considerable resources to update and modify their systems for Year 2000
compliance.

HRP developed a program to review and modify, where necessary, its computers,
computer programming and building systems to process transactions and/or operate
in the Year 2000 and beyond. HRP identified that its four primary business
systems vulnerable to Year 2000 issues are: (1) General Ledger/Accounts
Payable/Accounts Receivable Systems - These systems were modified by the vendor
at no cost to HRP during the third quarter of 1998 and are now Year 2000
compliant. (2) Commercial Lease Administration - The system used by HRP is Year
2000 compliant. (3) K-1 Processing - HRP maintains data used to process its
partners Schedule K-1's for tax reporting purposes in an environment that is not
Year 2000 compliant. A compliant system will be installed in the fourth quarter
of 1999 at minimal cost. (4) Payroll - Year 2000 compliant software was
purchased and installed in the fourth quarter of 1998 at minimal cost.

In July 1999, HRP completed a real estate property survey of its significant
service providers and other external parties to determine their compliance with
the Year 2000 issue and what impact, if any, their efforts will have on HRP's
business and operations. This real estate property survey included the
identification of certain on-site, non-information technology systems that could
be vulnerable to Year 2000 issues. These non-information technology systems
included, but were not limited to, access gates, alarms, elevators, heating and
air conditioning systems, irrigation systems, security systems, thermostats, and
utility meters and switches. During early November 1999, HRP completed the
remaining Year 2000 upgrades and replacements found in the real estate property
survey. Total costs, including information and non-information technology
systems, did not exceed $100,000.

Although HRP believes that it will not have any detrimental effects on its
operations from Year 2000 compliance issues, there can be no assurance that the
systems of other companies, on which HRP's systems may rely, will be converted
timely, or converted in a manner that is compatible with HRP's systems, or that
any such failures by such other companies would not have a material adverse
effect or risk to HRP. HRP plans to devote all necessary resources to resolve
any such unforseen issues in a timely manner. HRP has utilized and will continue
to utilize, as necessary, external and internal resources to reprogram, upgrade,
replace and/or test its systems for Year 2000 modifications. In the event of a
complete failure of our information technology systems, HRP would be able to
continue the affected functions either manually or through the use of non-Year
2000 compliant systems. The primary costs associated with such a necessity would
probably include increased time delays associated with posting of information,
and increased personnel to manually process the information. HRP does not
currently have a contingency plan in place and believes, based upon current
knowledge, that one is not needed.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS -

In the interest of providing investors with certain information regarding HRP's
future plans and operations, certain statements set forth in this Form 10-Q
relate to management's future plans and objectives. Such statements are
forward-looking statements within the meaning of federal securities laws.
Although any forward-looking statements contained herein or otherwise expressed
by or on behalf of HRP are, to the knowledge and in the judgment of the officers
and directors of the General Partner, expected to prove true and come to pass,
management is not able to predict the future with absolute certainty. Although
HRP believes that the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements are
reasonable, any of the assumptions could be inaccurate and, therefore, there can
be no assurance that the forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate.

Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties,
which may cause HRP's actual performance and financial results in future periods
to differ significantly from any projection, estimate or forecasted result.
These risks and uncertainties include, among other things, future economic,
competitive and market conditions and future business decisions, all of which
are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond
the control of HRP; other risks and uncertainties may be described, from time to
time, in HRP's periodic reports and filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.



ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

There have been no material changes to HRP's market risks during the nine months
ended September 30, 1999.

QUALITATIVE INFORMATION -

HRP's primary risk management strategy is to manage its exposure to adverse
changes in interest rates by issuing fixed rate debt, where possible. HRP
attempts to manage the exposure to adverse changes in the fair value of its
fixed rate debt by issuing fixed rate debt when business and markets conditions
are favorable. There is inherent rollover risk for borrowings as they mature and
are renewed at the then current market rates. The extent of this risk is not
quantifiable or predictable because of the variability of future interest rates
and HRP's future financing requirements. HRP does not hold or issue derivative
financial instruments for trading purposes. As part of HRP's financing activity,
a derivative security was used for the sole purpose of fixing the interest rate
of HRP's only variable rate debt instrument.

SPECIFIC AND QUANTITATIVE INFORMATION -

HRP's derivative instrument, which is matched directly against an outstanding
borrowing is a "pay fixed / receive variable" interest rate swap with a highly
rated counterparty in which the interest payments are calculated on a notional
amount. The notional amount does not represent amounts exchanged by the parties
and thus are not a measure of exposure to HRP through its use of the derivative.
HRP is exposed to credit-related gains or losses in the event of non-performance
by counterparties to this financial instrument; however, HRP does not expect any
counterparties to fail to meet their obligations. The interest rate swap is
described as follows:
