Dear Shareholder:
We are pleased to provide the annual report for the Greenwich Street
Municipal Fund Inc. ("Fund") for the year ended May 31, 1998. During the year,
the Fund distributed income dividends totaling $0.61 per share. The table below
shows the annualized distribution rate and twelve-month total return based on
the Fund's May 31, 1998 net asset value ("NAV") per share and its New York Stock
Exchange ("NYSE") closing price.
Price Annualized Twelve-Month
Per Share Distribution Rate* Total Return
--------- ------------------ ------------
$11.78 (NAV) 4.99% 10.53%
$10.438 (NYSE) 5.63% (0.20)%
In comparison, closed-end municipal bond funds posted an average total
return of 12.42% for the same time period, as reported by Lipper Analytical
Services, Inc. (Lipper is a major fund-tracking organization.)
Municipal Bond Market Update
The past year under review has seen a clear dichotomy develop between
domestic and international pressures on the bond markets. Recently, the weakness
in Southeast Asia has kept inflationary pressures low and has provided a soft
economic backdrop that in turn has helped to support bond prices. With respect
to the U.S. economy, the data has been quite different and indicates powerful
economic growth, tight labor markets and some signs of higher inflationary
pressures. These conditions would normally point to a Federal Reserve Board
("Fed") tightening of short-term interest rates and weakening bond prices.
However, Asia's problems have put Fed monetary policy temporarily on hold and
have created a classic standoff between the bulls and the bears. Some investors
may perceive this standoff as relative

calm in a market that is actually more turbulent than it may appear. While the
market may seem calm on the surface, pressures from both viewpoints are
building. We expect that one side will ultimately prevail and become dominant,
probably before the end of the year. In our opinion, current domestic concerns
should outweigh foreign considerations among Fed policy-makers.
Investment Strategy
The yield curve has become extremely flat in the last few months. (The
yield curve shows the difference between short- and long-term yields.) That
means there is little extra yield being offered by owning longer maturity bonds
and taking on the added risks of higher interest rate volatility.
We have attempted to increase the Fund's coupon and decrease its average
maturity from where we were last year. (Coupon is the interest rate on a debt
security the issuer promises to pay to the holder until maturity, expressed as
an annual percentage of face value. Average maturity is a dollar weighted
average maturity of bonds contained in the portfolio.) While this may be a more
conservative investment strategy, for us it appears to be a rare opportunity to
come in shorter on the yield curve in the municipal bond market without any
appreciable sacrifice in the income stream. With today's low interest rates, we
think our strategy is prudent.
As of May 31, 1998, the Fund's focus was on hospital bonds (16.6%),
general obligation bonds (14.1%) and water and sewer bonds (12.0%) because we
believed they offered good relative values. At the end of May, the Fund's
weighted average maturity was approximately 22 years. In addition, as of May 31,
1998, approximately 91% of the Fund's holdings were rated investment grade by
either Standard & Poor's Ratings Service or Moody's Investors Services Inc.,
with 56% of the Portfolio invested in AAA bonds, the highest rating.
(Investment-grade bonds are those rated in one of the four highest ratings
categories by nationally recognized statistical rating organizations, or
determined by the manager to be of equivalent quality.)
Municipal Bond Market Outlook
Municipal bonds today trade at approximately 90% of 30-year U.S. Treasury
bonds, which is an extremely attractive after-tax spread. U.S. Treasury bond
rates have been pushed down by several forces, but most recently by foreign
capital exiting Asia in a "flight to quality." Because these foreign investors
do not gain any benefit from tax-exempt income, municipal bonds have not
appreciated as much as U.S. Treasurys of late. It also means that when the tide
turns, the Fund's currently more defensive investment strategy should hold us in
good stead in any future market sell-off.

<PAGE>
We have also seen a significant increase in the volume of new issues in
the municipal bond market taking advantage of historically low interest rates.
We believe the municipal market is comparatively inexpensive and provides us
with a broad spectrum of securities to choose from. For us, that means the
issues we will consider will probably remain high in credit quality and somewhat
shorter in maturity than in past market cycles.
In closing, thank you for investing in the Greenwich Street Municipals
Fund Inc. We look forward to continuing to help you achieve your financial
goals.
Sincerely,
/s/ Heath B. McLendon /s/ Joseph P. Deane

Take Advantage of the Fund's Dividend Reinvestment Plan!
Did you know that fund investors who reinvest their dividends are taking
advantage of one of the most effective wealth-building tools available today?
Systematic investments put time to work for you through the strength of
compounding.
As an investor in the Fund, you can participate in its Dividend Reinvestment
Plan ("Plan"), a convenient, simple and efficient way to reinvest your dividends
and capital gains, if any, in additional shares of the Fund. The Fund's complete
Plan begins on page 25. Below is a short summary of how the Plan works.
Plan Summary
If you are a Plan participant who has not elected to receive your dividends in
the form of a cash payment, then your dividend and capital gain distributions
will be reinvested automatically in additional shares of the Fund.
The number of common stock shares in the Fund you will receive in lieu of a cash
dividend is determined in the following manner. If the market price of the
common stock is equal to or exceeds the net asset value ("NAV") per share on the
date of valuation, you will be issued shares for the equivalent of the most
recently determined NAV per share or 95% of the market price, whichever is
greater.
If the NAV per share at the time of valuation is greater than the market price
of the common stock, or if the Fund declares a dividend or capital gains
distribution payable only in cash, the Fund will buy common stock for your
account in the open market or on the New York Stock Exchange.
If the Fund begins to purchase additional shares in the open market and the
market price of the shares subsequently rises above the NAV before the purchases
are completed, the Fund will attempt to cancel any remaining orders and issue
the remaining dividend or distribution in shares at the Fund's NAV per share. In
that case, the number of Fund shares you receive will be based on the weighted
average of prices paid for shares purchased in the open market and the price at
which the Fund issues the remaining shares.
To find out more detailed information about the Plan and about how you can
participate, please call First Data Investors Services Group at (800) 331-1710.

Bond Ratings (unaudited)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
All ratings are by Standard & Poor's Ratings Service ("Standard & Poor's"),
except those identified by an asterisk (*) are rated by Moody's Investors
Service, Inc. ("Moody's"). The definitions of the applicable rating symbols are
set forth below:
Standard & Poor's -- Ratings from "AA" to "BBB" may be modified by the addition
of a plus (+) or a minus (-) sign to show relative standings within the major
rating categories.
AAA -- Bonds rated "AAA" have the highest rating assigned by Standard &
Poor's to a debt obligation. Capacity to pay interest and repay
principal is extremely strong.
AA -- Bonds rated "AA" have a very strong capacity to pay interest and
repay principal and differ from the highest rated issue only in a
small degree.
A -- Bonds rated "A" have a strong capacity to pay interest and repay
principal although it is somewhat more susceptible to the adverse
effects of changes in circumstances and economic conditions than
debt in higher rated categories.
BBB -- Bonds rated "BBB" are regarded as having an adequate capacity to
pay interest and repay principal. Whereas they normally exhibit
adequate protection parameters, adverse economic conditions or
changing circumstances are more likely to lead to a weakened
capacity to pay interest and repay principal for debt in this
category than in higher rated categories.
Moody's -- Numerical modifiers 1, 2, and 3 may be applied to each generic rating
from "Aa" to "Baa," where 1 is the highest and 3 the lowest rating within its
generic category.
Aaa -- Bonds rated "Aaa" are judged to be of the best quality. They
carry the smallest degree of investment risk and are generally
referred to as "gilt edge." Interest payments are protected by a
large or by an exceptionally stable margin and principal is secure.
While the various protective elements are likely to change, such
changes as can be visualized are most unlikely to impair the
fundamentally strong position of such issues.
Aa -- Bonds rated "Aa" are judged to be of high quality by all
standards. Together with the "Aaa" group they comprise what are
generally known as high grade bonds. They are rated lower than the
best bonds because margins of protection may not be as large as in
"Aaa" securities or fluctuation of protective elements may be of
greater amplitude or there may be other elements present which make
the long-term risks appear somewhat larger than in "Aaa" securities.
A -- Bonds rated "A" possess many favorable investment attributes and
are to be considered as upper medium grade obligations. Factors
giving security to principal and interest are considered adequate
but elements may be present which suggest a susceptibility to
impairment some time in the future.
Baa -- Bonds rated "Baa" are considered as medium grade obligations,
i.e., they are neither highly protected nor poorly secured. Interest
payments and principal security appear adequate for the present but
certain protective elements may be lacking or may be
characteristically unreliable over any great length of time. Such
bonds lack outstanding investment characteristics and in fact have
speculative characteristics as well.
NR -- Indicates that the bond is not rated by Standard & Poor's or
Moody's.

<PAGE>
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Short-Term Security Ratings (unaudited)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SP-1 -- Standard & Poor's highest rate rating indicating very strong or
strong capacity to pay principal and interest; those issues
determined to possess overwhelming safety characteristics are
denoted with a plus (+) sign.
A-1 -- Standard & Poor's highest commercial paper and variable-rate
demand obligation (VRDO) rating indicating that the degree of safety
regarding timely payment is either overwhelming or very strong;
those issues determined to possess overwhelming safety
characteristics are denoted with a plus (+) sign.
VMIG 1 -- Moody's highest rating for issues having demand feature -- VRDO.
P-1 -- Moody's highest rating for commercial paper and for VRDO prior to
the advent of the VMIG 1 rating.

Notes to Financial Statements
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Significant Accounting Policies
Greenwich Street Municipal Fund Inc. ("Fund"), a Maryland corporation, is
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a
non-diversified, closed-end management investment company.
The significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund are:
(a) security transactions are accounted for on trade date; (b) securities are
valued at the mean between bid and ask prices provided by an independent pricing
service that are based on transactions in municipal obligations, quotations from
municipal bond dealers, market transactions in comparable securities and various
relationships between securities; (c) securities maturing within 60 days are
valued at cost plus accreted discount, or minus amortized premium, which
approximates value; (d) gains or losses on the sale of securities are calculated
by using the specific identification method; (e) interest income, adjusted for
amortization of premium and accretion of original issue discount, is recorded on
an accrual basis; market discount is recognized upon the disposition of the
security; (f) dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the
ex-dividend date; (g) the Fund intends to comply with the applicable provisions
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, pertaining to regulated
investment companies and to make distributions of taxable income sufficient to
relieve it from substantially all Federal income and excise taxes; (h) the
character of income and gains to be distributed are determined in accordance
with income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting
principles. At May 31, 1998, reclassifications were made to the Fund's capital
accounts to reflect permanent book/tax differences and income and gains
available for distributions under income tax regulations. Accordingly, a portion
of overdistributed net investment income and accumulated net realized loss
amounting to $69,250 and $117,095, respectively, was reclassified to paid-in
capital. Net investment income, net realized gains and net assets were not
affected by this change; and (i) estimates and assumptions are required to be
made regarding assets, liabilities and changes in net assets resulting from
operations when financial statements are prepared. Changes in the economic
environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining
these estimates could cause actual results to differ.
2. Dividends, Exempt-Interest Dividends and Other Distributions
The Fund intends to satisfy conditions that will enable interest from
municipal securities, which is exempt from regular Federal income tax and from
designated state income taxes, to retain such tax-exempt status when distributed
to the shareholders of the Fund.
19
<PAGE>
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notes to Financial Statements
(continued)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Capital gain distributions, if any, are taxable to shareholders, and are
declared and paid at least annually.
3. Investment Advisory Agreement and Other Transactions
Mutual Management Corp. ("MMC"), a subsidiary of Salomon Smith Barney
Holdings Inc. ("SSBH"), acts as investment adviser to the Fund. The Fund pays
MMC an advisory fee calculated at an annual rate of 0.90% of the Fund's average
daily net assets. This fee is calculated daily and paid monthly.
All officers and one Director of the Fund are employees of Smith Barney
Inc., another subsidiary of SSBH.
4. Securities Transactions
For the year ended May 31, 1998, the aggregate cost of purchases and
proceeds from sales of investments (including maturities but excluding
short-term securities) were as follows:

Independent Auditors' Report
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Shareholders and Board of Directors of
Greenwich Street Municipal Fund Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities,
including the schedule of investments, of the Greenwich Street Municipal Fund
Inc. as of May 31, 1998, the related statement of operations for the year then
ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the years in the
two-year period then ended and financial highlights for each of the years in the
three-year period then ended. These financial statements and financial
highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility
is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights
based on our audits. The financial highlights for the period from June 24, 1994
(commencement of operations) to May 31, 1995 were audited by other auditors
whose report thereon, dated July 12, 1995, expressed an unqualified opinion on
those financial highlights.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial
highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of May
31, 1998 by correspondence with the custodian. As to securities purchased but
not yet received, we performed other appropriate auditing procedures. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred
to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the
Greenwich Street Municipal Fund Inc. as of May 31, 1998, the results of its
operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of
the years in the two-year period then ended and financial highlights for each of
the years in the three-year period then ended, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.

Dividend Reinvestment Plan
(unaudited)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Under the Fund's Dividend Reinvestment Plan ("Plan"), a shareholder whose
shares of Common Stock are registered in his own name will have all
distributions from the Fund reinvested automatically by First Data Investor
Services Group, Inc. ("First Data") as agent under the Plan, unless the
shareholder elects to receive cash. Distributions with respect to shares
registered in the name of a broker-dealer or other nominee (that is, in "Street
Name") will be reinvested by the broker or nominee in additional shares under
the Plan, unless the service is not provided by the broker or nominee or the
shareholder elects to receive distributions in cash. Investors who own Common
Stock registered in Street Name should consult their broker-dealers for details
regarding reinvestment. All distributions to shareholders who do not participate
in the Plan will be paid by check mailed directly to the record holder by or
under the direction of First Data as dividend paying agent.
The number of shares of Common Stock distributed to participants in the
Plan in lieu of a cash dividend is determined in the following manner. When the
market price of the Common Stock is equal to or exceeds the net asset value per
share of the Common Stock on the date of valuation, Plan participants will be
issued shares of Common Stock at a price equal to the greater of net asset value
most recently determined as described below under "Net Asset Value" or 95% of
the market price of the Common Stock.
If the market price of the Common Stock is less than the net asset value
of the Common Stock at the time of valuation, or if the Fund declares a dividend
or capital gains distribution payable only in cash, First Data will buy Common
Stock in the open market, on the New York Stock Exchange or elsewhere, for the
participants' accounts. If following the commencement of the purchases and
before First Data has completed its purchases, the market price exceeds the net
asset value of the Common Stock, First Data will attempt to terminate purchases
in the open market and cause the Fund to issue the remaining portion of the
dividend or distribution in shares at a price equal to the greater of (a) net
asset value or (b) 95% of the then current market price. In this case, the
number of shares received by a Plan participant will be based on the weighted
average of prices paid for shares purchased in the open market and the price at
which the Fund issues the remaining shares. To the extent First Data is unable
to stop open market purchases and cause the Fund to issue the remaining shares,
the average per share purchase price paid by the Purchasing Agent may exceed the
net asset value of the Common Stock, resulting in the acquisition of fewer
shares than if the dividend or capital gains distribution had been paid in
Common Stock issued by the Fund

at net asset value. First Data will begin to purchase Common Stock on the open
market as soon as practicable after the payment date of the dividend or capital
gains distribution, but in no event shall such purchases continue later than 30
days after that date, except when necessary to comply with applicable provisions
of the federal securities laws.
First Data maintains all shareholder accounts in the Plan and furnishes
written confirmations of all transactions in each account, including information
needed by a shareholder for personal and tax records. The automatic reinvestment
of dividends and capital gains distributions will not relieve Plan participants
of any income tax that may be payable on the dividends or capital gains
distributions. Common Stock in the account of each Plan participant will be held
by First Data in uncertificated form in the name of the Plan participant.
Plan participants are subject to no charge for reinvesting dividends and
capital gains distributions under the Plan. First Data's fees for handling the
reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions will be paid by the
Fund. No brokerage charges apply with respect to shares of Common Stock issued
directly by the Fund under the Plan. Each Plan participant will, however, bear a
proportionate share of brokerage commissions incurred with respect to any open
market purchases made under the Plan.
Experience under the Plan may indicate that changes to it are desirable.
The Fund reserves the right to amend or terminate the Plan as applied to any
dividend or capital gains distribution paid subsequent to written notice of the
change sent to participants at least 30 days before the record date for the
dividend or capital gains distribution. The Plan also may be amended or
terminated by First Data, with the Fund's prior written consent, on at least 30
days' written notice to Plan participants. All correspondence concerning the
Plan should be directed by mail to First Data Investor Services Group, Inc.,
P.O. Box 8030, Boston, Massachusetts 02266 or by telephone at 1-800-331-1710.
