Item 7 of the Registrants Annual Report on Form 10-K for the 
year ended December 31, 1995 is hereby amended to read in its 
entirety as follows:

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

Capital Resources and Liquidity

	The Registrant has invested as a general partner in the 
Operating Partnerships and as such receives distributions of cash 
flow as its sole source of revenues.  

	There were no distributions received from the Operating 
Partnerships in 1995.  The Registrant used cash reserves from the 
Registrants reserves to satisfy administrative and other 
expenses.  

	Cash provided by operations was $1,889,772.  Expenditures 
for building improvements and deferred costs totaled $2,542,844 
during 1995.  These were offset by net withdrawals from the 
mortgage escrow of $1,565,655.  At December 31, 1995, the 
Registrant and the Operating Partnerships held unrestricted cash 
of $6,708,060.  

	In addition to unrestricted cash, the Registrant maintains 
an Escrow Account, as required under the Permanent Loan.  The 
Escrow Account was established to fund Permitted Escrow Uses and 
is secured by a letter of credit.  The Registrant maintains a 
cash collateral account to secure its obligations under the 
letter of credit.  At December 31, 1995, the balance in this 
account was $4,828,735.  For a more detailed discussion of the 
Escrow Account see Item 1, Description of Business.  

	On October 14, 1994, the Propertys fire suppression systems 
malfunctioned, causing severe water damage to the Property.  The 
damage was substantially covered by insurance.  During 1995, the 
Miami Tower settled its insurance claim relating to its damage.  
The insurance carrier agreed to pay Miami Tower approximately 
$8,942,000, of which $8,387,893 was received in 1995.  Under the 
terms of the Permanent Loan, insurance proceeds were placed into 
an escrow account under the control of the RTC.  The balance of 
the escrow account at December 31, 1995 was approximately 
$3,100,000.  Miami Tower has substantially completed the repair 
and maintenance work associated with the damage; however, the 
structural buildout is only in its initial phases.  No other 
significant capital improvements are planned in the near future 
for the Property other than tenant improvements which are 
incidental to the leasing-up of the Property.  

	As discussed in Item 1, Description of Business, the 
Property is encumbered by a participating loan provided by the 
Sellers in the amount of $36,800,000.  The terms of the Permanent 
Loan are more favorable than those provided by conventional real 
estate lenders.  Certain aspects of the Permanent Loan were 
structured specifically to provide the Operating Partnerships 
with increased liquidity during the lease-up of the property.  
These include (i) no principal payments prior to maturity; (ii) 
no minimum interest payments before November 1996 and minimum 
interest payments at a reduced rate thereafter, i.e. 7% on the 
original principal balance of the Permanent Loan; (iii) an 
initial accrual rate of 8% for the first five years, increasing 
to 10% in the last five years; and (iv) a sharing of net 
operating income between the Operating Partnerships and the RTC 
(in its capacity as lender).  It is anticipated that cash flow 
from operations will be sufficient to satisfy interest payments 
which are scheduled to commence in 1996.

	In December 1995, the RTC notified WFA of a net worth 
deficiency under the Permanent Loan due to WFAs net worth being 
less than the required minimum of $10,000,000.  Under the terms 
of the Permanent Loan documents, the Operating Partnerships can 
cure this deficiency if an independent appraisal of the Property 
indicates that the sum of the amount by which the fair market 
value of the Property exceeds $44,000,000 plus WFAs net worth is 
$10,000,000 or greater.  In addition, the deficiency can be cured 
if WFA deposits with the lender an amount equal to $10,000,000 
less the sum of WFAs net worth and the amount by which the fair 
value of the Property exceeds $44,000,000.  The RTC is in the 
process of obtaining their own appraisal to determine compliance 
with the aforementioned provision.  The Registrant believes, 
based on its understanding of the market value of similar 
properties, that the property should have an appraised value 
sufficient to cure the default.  In the event the appraised value 
is not sufficient to cure the deficiency, and WFA is unable to 
deposit with the RTC the amount required to cure the deficiency, 
the RTC has the option, among other remedies, to accelerate the 
maturity of the Permanent Loan and make all amounts under the 
loan immediately due and payable, in which case the Registrants 
property could be lost through foreclosure.

Results of Operations

	The Registrant generated net income of approximately 
$1,688,000 for the year ended December 31,1995 compared to a loss 
of approximately $4,374,000 in 1994.  The significant improvement 
is the result of: (i) increased rental income of $2.4 million; 
(ii) a $4,541,000 gain from an insurance settlement related to 
water damage incurred when a chiller malfunctioned; and (iii) a 
decrease in bad debt expense of $822,000.  These were partially 
offset by increased interest expense and depreciation charges.  

	Rental and escalation income increased by $2,281,000 to a 
total of $10,369,000 in 1995 versus $8,088,000 in 1994.  In 
January 1995, the Operating Partnership signed a lease with 
NationsBank for 93,249 square feet of office space in the 
Property, representing 16% of the total square footage in the 
Office Tower.  This lease has an initial term of fifteen years 
with an option to extend the lease for two additional terms of 
five years each.  In addition, the lease grants the tenant 
certain expansion and contraction options.  This lease 
contributed $2,011,000 of revenue in 1995.  

	In total the Operating Partnership signed 5 leases totaling 
approximately 128,000 square feet in 1995.  As a result of this 
leasing activity, the Property had approximately 105,000 square 
feet of vacant office space at December 31, 1995 or approximately 
18% of the total space in the Office Tower.  

	The increase in interest income reflects the benefit of 
additional interest earned on the insurance proceeds held in 
escrow during 1995.  

	Total expenses for the year ended December 31, 1995 
increased by $189,000 from $13,536,000 in 1994 to $13,725,000 in 
1995.  The major components of the expense increase were interest 
expense increasing $611,000 in 1995 and depreciation and 
amortization expense which increased $374,000 in 1995.  These 
increases were partially offset by a decrease in bad debt expense 
of $822,000. The remaining building operating expenses decreased 
$196,000 or 2.6% in 1995 from $7,648,000 to $7,452,000.  

	As discussed above, the Propertys fire suppression systems 
malfunctioned causing water damage to the upper floors of the 
Property.  During 1995, the Operating Partnership settled its 
insurance claim related to the damage incurred which resulted in 
total insurance proceeds of approximately $8,942,000.  The 
Operating Partnership commenced repairs required and is still in 
process of completing buildout work.  The Operating Partnership 
recognized a gain of approximately $4,541,000 which represents 
reimbursement for the replacement cost of several tenant 
improvements initially constructed by the Seller resulting in the 
Office Tower having a basis less than the replacement cost.  

	Revenue from 1993 to 1994 decreased from approximately 
$11,400,000 in 1993 to $8,500,000 in 1994.  This decrease was due 
primarily to the $2.8 million of revenue received from American 
Bankers during 1993 prior to its lease expiration.  The rental 
income lost following the default of Fine Jacobson, however, was 
offset by rental income from new leases signed for Office Tower 
space during 1994.

	Over the course of 1994, rental income accrued on leases 
with approximately forty-five tenants, accounting for 
approximately 90% of the Property's total income and the 
remaining 10% representing operating expense and tax escalation 
reimbursements and miscellaneous income.

	In 1994, seven new leases, comprising an aggregate of 74,267 
square feet of space in the Office Tower were signed.  The 
Operating Partnership also renewed one tenant, Goldfarb & Gold, 
for a seven year term.  In February, 1994, the Miami Tower signed 
a ten year lease with Fowler, White, Burnett, Hurley, Banick & 
Strickroot, P.A. covering 40,898 square feet of space (or 7.2% of 
the Office Tower) on the 17th and 18th floors.  The second 
largest lease signed in 1994 was with the law firm of Wilson 
Elser for 13,515 square feet of office space and a term of ten 
years.  As of December 31, 1994, the Property had 228,054 square 
feet of vacant office space, or approximately 39% of the total 
space in the Office Tower.  This is a 5% decrease from the 
vacancy rate as of December 31, 1993 of  44%.

	Actual operating expenses (before interest expenses, 
depreciation and amortization) incurred during 1994 totaled 
approximately $7,650,000, an increase of approximately $450,000 
over the 1993 expense total of $7,200,000, which in turn 
represented a $600,000 decrease from the 1992 operating expenses 
in the amount of $7,800,000.  The 1994 expense increase is 
attributable to the $660,000 increase in bad debts incurred as a 
result of the Fine Jacobson default.  

General

	The allocation of RTC debt service payments and 
distributable cash flow are calculated based on specific criteria 
set forth in the Permanent Loan documents.  As defined in the 
Permanent Loan documents, net operating income (RTC NOI) 
generated by the Operating Partnerships for 1995 was 
approximately $2,760,000 of which approximately $157,000 was used 
to pay debt service (this excludes $1,257,000 of excess insurance 
proceeds also paid for interest during 1995), approximately 
$1,400,000 was used to fund real estate tax and insurance 
escrows, and $259,000 was contributed to the working capital 
reserve.  The remainder, $733,000, was available to distribute to 
the Registrant.  RTC NOI for 1994 was approximately $1,938,000 of 
which $315,500 was used to pay debt service and $600,000 was 
available to distribute to the Registrant.  The remainder of the 
1994 RTC NOI was used for real estate tax and insurance escrows. 
The Operating Partnerships retained the 1994 and 1995 funds 
available for distribution as additional reserves.  RTC NOI for 
1993 was approximately $2,700,000 of which approximately $383,000 
was used to fund debt service, approximately $1,500,000 was made 
available to the Registrant and the remainder was used to 
establish a working capital reserve.  

	The Registrant distributed approximately $1,800,000 in March 
1994 to the Partners.  This amount represented $1,500,000 from 
1993 operations distributed from the Operating Partnerships to 
Registrant plus interest income of $300,000 earned by the 
Registrant.  There were no distributions made to the Partners 
from 1994 or 1995 operations.  Given the current occupancy of the 
property, it is not currently anticipated that the Registrant 
will make any distributions from operations in the immediate 
future.  However, the performance of the property and the 
Registrants distribution policy will continue to be reviewed on 
a quarterly basis.  

	The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of 
Financial Accounting Standard No. 121 Accounting for Long-Lived 
Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be disposed of (the 
Statement).  The Statement requires a write down to fair value 
of long-lived assets to be held and used when such assets are 
impaired.  The Statement also requires long-lived assets to be 
disposed of to be carried at the lower of cost or fair value less 
the costs to sell and does not allow such assets to be 
depreciated.  The Statement will become effective for the 
Registrant in 1996.  The General Partners anticipate that the 
implementation of the Statement will not have a material impact 
on the Registrants 1996 financial statements.
