                               NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                       JUNE 30, 1997

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION:

   Gateway Tax Credit Fund III Ltd. ("Gateway"), a Florida
Limited Partnership, was formed October 17, 1991 under the
laws of Florida.  Gateway offered its limited partnership
interests in Series.  The first Series for Gateway is Series
7.  Operations commenced on July 16, 1992 for Series 7,
January 4, 1993 for Series 8, September 30, 1993 for Series 
9, January 21, 1994 for Series 10 and April 29, 1994 for
Series 11.  Each Series invests, as a limited partner, in
other limited partnerships ("Project Partnerships"), each of
which owns and operates apartment complexes eligible for Low-
Income Housing Tax Credits ("Tax Credits"), provided for in 
Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986.  Gateway will
terminate on December 31, 2040 or sooner, in accordance with
the terms of the Limited Partnership Agreement.  As of March
31, 1997, Gateway had received capital contributions of $1,000
from the General Partners and $36,799,000 from the investor
Limited Partners.

   Raymond James Partners, Inc. and Raymond James Tax Credit
Funds, Inc., wholly-owned subsidiaries of Raymond James
Financial, Inc., are the General Partner and Managing General
Partner, respectively.  The Managing General Partner manages
and controls the business of Gateway. 

   Gateway received capital contributions of $10,395,000,
$9,980,000, $6,254,000, $5,043,000 and $5,127,000 from the
investor Limited Partners in Series 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11,
respectively.  Each Series will be treated as though it were
a separate partnership, investing in a separate and distinct
pool of Project Partnerships.  Income or loss and all tax
items from the Project Partnerships acquired by each Series 
will be specifically allocated among the limited partners of
such Series.

   Operating profits and losses, cash distributions from
operations and Tax Credits from each Series are generally
allocated 99% to the Limited Partners in that Series and 1% 
to the General Partners.  Profit or loss and cash
distributions from sales of property by each Series are
allocated as formulated in the Limited Partnership Agreement.


NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

Basis of Accounting

   Gateway utilizes an accrual basis of accounting whereby
revenues are recognized as earned and expenses are recognized
as obligations are incurred.

   Gateway accounts for its investments as the limited partner
in Project Partnerships ("Investments in Project
Partnerships") using the equity method of accounting and
reports the equity in losses of the Project Partnerships on a
3-month lag in the Statement of Operations.  Under the equity
method, the Investments in Project Partnerships initially
include:

   1)  Gateway's capital contribution,
   2)  Acquisition fees paid to the General Partner for
services rendered in selecting properties for acquisition, and
   3)  Acquisition expenses including legal fees, travel and
other miscellaneous costs relating to acquiring properties.

Quarterly the Investments in Project Partnerships are
increased or decreased as follows:

   1)  Increased for equity in income or decreased for equity
   in losses of the Project Partnerships, 
   2)  Decreased for cash distributions received from the
   Project Partnerships,
   3)  Decreased for the amortization of the acquisition fees
   and expenses,
   4)  In certain Project Partnerships, where Gateway's
   investment was greater than Gateway's pro-rata share of the
   book value of the underlying assets, decreased for the
   amortization of the difference; and 
   5)  In certain Project Partnerships, where Gateway's
   investment was less than Gateway's pro-rata share of the 
   book value of the underlying assets, increased for the
   accretion of the difference.

   Amortization and accretion is calculated on a straight line
basis over 35 years, as this is the average estimated useful
life of the underlying assets.  The net amortization and
accretion is shown as amortization expense on the Statements
of Operations.  

   Pursuant to the limited partnership agreements for the
Project Partnerships, cash losses generated by the Project
Partnerships are allocated to the general partners of those 
partnerships.  In subsequent years, cash profits, if any, are
first allocated to the general partners to the extent of the
allocation of prior years' cash losses.

   Since Gateway invests as a limited partner, and therefore
is not obligated to fund losses or make additional capital
contributions, it does not recognize losses from individual 
Project Partnerships to the extent that these losses would
reduce the investment in those Project Partnerships below
zero.  The suspended losses will be used to offset future
income from the individual Project Partnerships.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

     It is Gateway's policy to include short-term investments
with an original maturity of three months or less in Cash and
Cash Equivalents.  Short-term investments are comprised of
money market mutual funds.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

     Financial instruments which potentially subject Gateway 
to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash investments
in a money market mutual fund that is a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Raymond James Financial, Inc.

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires the use of
estimates that affect certain reported amounts and
disclosures.  These estimates are based on management's
knowledge and experience.  Accordingly, actual results could
differ from these estimates.

Investment in Securities

     Effective April 1, 1994, Gateway adopted Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, Accounting for Certain
Investments in Debt and Equity Securities ("FAS 115").  Under
FAS 115, Gateway is required to categorize its debt securities
as held-to-maturity, available-for-sale or trading securities,
dependent upon Gateway's intent in holding the securities. 
Gateway's intent is to hold all of its debt securities (U. S.
Treasury Security Strips) until maturity and to use these
reserves to fund Gateway's ongoing operations.  Interest
income is recognized ratably on the U.S. Treasury Strips using
the effective yield to maturity.

Receivable from Project Partnerships

     Receivable from Project Partnerships represents amounts 
due from the Project Partnerships due to a change in the
amount Gateway agreed to pay the Project Partnerships and is
secured with cash in restricted escrow accounts.

Offering and Commission Costs

     Offering and commission costs are charged against Limited
Partners' Equity upon admission of Limited Partners.

Income Taxes

     No provision for income taxes has been made in these
financial statements, as income taxes are a liability of the
partners rather than of Gateway.


Basis of Preparation

  The unaudited financial statements presented herein have
been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q
and do not include all of the information and note disclosures
required by generally accepted accounting principles.  These
statements should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and notes thereto included with the Partnership's
Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 1997.  In the opinion
of management these financial statements include adjustments,
consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to
fairly summarize the Partnership's financial position and
results of operations.  The results of operations for the
periods may not be indicative of the results to be expected
for the year.

Item 7.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations 

Results of Operations, Liquidity and Capital Resources

The proceeds from Limited Partner investors' capital contributions
available for investment are used to acquire interests in Project
Partnerships.  

  As disclosed on the statement of operations for each Series,
except as described below, interest income is comparable for the 
three months ended June 30 1997 and June 30, 1996.  The General and
Administrative expenses - General Partner and General and
Administrative expenses - Other for the three months ended June 30,
1997 are comparable to June 30, 1996.  There were no unusual
variations in the operating results between these two periods.

   The capital resources of each Series are used to pay General and
Administrative operating costs including personnel, supplies, data
processing, travel and legal and accounting associated with the
administration and monitoring of Gateway and the Project
Partnerships.  The capital resources are also used to pay the Asset
Management Fee due the Managing General Partner, but only to the
extent that Gateway's remaining resources are sufficient to fund
Gateway's ongoing needs.  (Payment of any Asset Management Fee
unpaid at the time Gateway sells its interests in the Project
Partnerships is subordinated to the investors' return of their
original capital contribution.)

   The sources of funds to pay the operating costs of each Series
are short-term investments and interest earned thereon, the
maturity of U.S. Treasury Security Strips ("Zero Coupon
Treasuries") which were purchased with funds set aside for this
purpose, and cash distributed to the Series from the operations of
the Project Partnerships.

  Series 7 - Gateway closed this series on October 16, 1992 after
receiving $10,395,000 from 635 Limited Partner investors.  Equity
in Losses of Project Partnerships were comparable for the three
months ended June 30, 1997 and June 30, 1996.  In general, it is 
common in the real estate industry to experience losses for
financial and tax reporting purposes because of the non-cash
expenses of depreciation and amortization. As a result, management
expects that this Series, as well as those described below, will
report its equity in Project Partnerships as a loss for tax and
financial reporting purposes.  Overall, management believes the
Project Partnerships are operating as expected and are generating
tax credits which meet projections.

  At June 30, 1997, the Series had $277,430 of short-term
investments (Cash and Cash Equivalents).  It also had $474,675 in
Zero Coupon Treasuries with annual maturities providing $50,000 in
fiscal year 1999 increasing to $80,000 in fiscal year 2008. 
Management believes the sources of funds are sufficient to meet
current and ongoing operating costs for the foreseeable future, and
to pay part of the Asset Management Fee.
 
   As disclosed on the statement of cash flows, the Series had a 
net loss of $261,677 for the three months ended June 30, 1997. 
However, after adjusting for Equity in Losses of Project
Partnerships of $242,513 and the changes in operating assets and 
liabilities, net cash used in operating activities was $2,901. 
Cash provided by investing activities totaled $12,351, consisting 
of cash distributions from the Project Partnerships.

  Series 8 - Gateway closed this Series on June 28, 1993 after
receiving $9,980,000 from 664 Limited Partner investors.  Equity 
in Losses of Project Partnerships were comparable for the three
months ended June 30, 1997 and June 30, 1996.  At June 30, 1997, 
the Series had $398,604 of short-term investments (Cash and Cash 
Equivalents).  It also had $448,111 in Zero Coupon Treasuries with
annual maturities providing $45,000 in fiscal year 1999 increasing
to $82,000 in fiscal year 2008.  Management believes the sources 
of funds are sufficient to meet current and ongoing operating costs
for the foreseeable future, and to pay part of the Asset Management
Fee.
 
  As disclosed on the statement of cash flows, the Series had a net
loss of $283,686 for the three months ended June 30, 1997. 
However, after adjusting for Equity in Losses of Project
Partnerships of $265,543 and the changes in operating assets and 
liabilities, net cash used in operating activities was $1,841. Cash
provided by investing activities totaled $4,407, consisting of cash
distributions from the Project Partnerships.  There were no unusual
events or trends to describe.

  Series 9 - Gateway closed this Series on September 30, 1993 after
receiving $6,254,000 from 406 Limited Partner investors.  Equity in
Losses of Project Partnerships were comparable for the three months
ended June 30, 1997 and June 30, 1996.  At June 30, 1997, the
Series had $161,968 of short-term investments (Cash and Cash
Equivalents).  It also had $301,735 in Zero Coupon Treasuries with
annual maturities providing $29,000 in fiscal year 1999 increasing
to $47,000 in fiscal year 2009.  Management believes the sources of
funds are sufficient to meet current and ongoing operating costs
for the foreseeable future, and to pay part of the Asset Management
Fee.
 
  As disclosed on the statement of cash flows, the Series had a net
loss of $106,900 for the three months ended June 30, 1997. 
However, after adjusting for Equity in Losses of Project
Partnerships of $95,998 and the changes in operating assets and
liabilities, net cash used in operating activities was $1,856. Cash
provided by investing activities totaled $2,011, consisting
primarily of $3,216 of cash distributions from the Project
Partnerships.  There were no unusual events or trends to describe.

  Series 10 - Gateway closed this Series on January 21, 1994 after
receiving $5,043,000 from 325 Limited Partner investors.  Equity 
in Losses of Project Partnerships were comparable for the three
months ended June 30, 1997 and June 30, 1996.  At June 30, 1997, 
the Series had $202,950 of short-term investments (Cash and Cash 
Equivalents).  It also had $239,479 in Zero Coupon Treasuries with
annual maturities providing $24,000 in fiscal year 1999 increasing
to $40,000 in fiscal year 2010.  Management believes the sources 
of funds are sufficient to meet current and ongoing operating costs
for the foreseeable future, and to pay part of the Asset Management
Fee.
 
  As disclosed on the statement of cash flows, the Series had a net
loss of $42,651 for the three months ended June 30, 1997.  However,
after adjusting for Equity in Losses of Project Partnerships of
$37,779 and the changes in operating assets and liabilities, net
cash used in operating activities was $381. Cash provided by
investing activities totaled $3,588, consisting primarily of $2,383
of cash distributions from the Project Partnerships.  There were no
unusual events or trends to describe.

  Series 11 - Gateway closed this Series on April 29, 1994 after 
receiving $5,127,000 from 330 Limited investors.  Equity in losses
of Project Partnerships increased from income of $20,160 for the
three months ended June 30, 1996 to losses of $46,367 for the three
months ended June 30, 1997 due to the number of properties moving
from the construction and rent-up phases to fully operational.  At
June 30, 1997, the Series had $172,448 of short-term investments
(Cash and Cash Equivalents).  It also had $251,819 in Zero Coupon
Treasuries with annual maturities providing $23,000 in fiscal year
1999 increasing to $44,000 in fiscal year 2010.  Management
believes the sources of funds are sufficient to meet current and
ongoing operating costs for the foreseeable future, and to pay part
of the Asset Management Fee.
 
   As disclosed on the statement of cash flows, the Series had a 
net loss of $49,526 for the three months ended June 30, 1997.

Partnerships of $46,367 and the changes in operating assets and
liabilities, net cash used in operating activities was $619. Cash
provided by investing activities totaled $3,682, consisting of cash
distributions from the Project Partnerships.  There were no unusual
