	 Notes to Condensed Financial Statements (Unaudited)

	 Note A - Basis of Presentation

		   The accompanying unaudited condensed financial
	 statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions
	 to Form 10-Q and therefore do not include all information and
	 footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of financial position,
	 results of operations and statement of cash flows in conformity
	 with generally accepted accounting principles.  The accompanying
	 unaudited condensed financial statements include all adjustments
	 (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) which are, in the
	 opinion of the partners in Registrant, necessary for a fair
	 statement of the results for such interim periods.  The partners
	 in Registrant believe that the accompanying unaudited condensed
	 financial statements and the notes thereto fairly disclose the
	 financial condition and results of Registrant's operations for the
	 periods indicated and are adequate to make the information
	 presented therein not misleading.

	 Note B - Interim Period Reporting

		   The results for the interim period are not necessarily
	 indicative of the results to be expected for a full year. 

		   Registrant is a New York partnership which was organized
	 on September 25, 1958 and which owns fee title to the Lincoln
	 Building and the land thereunder, located at 60 East 42nd Street,
	 New York, New York 10165 (the "Property").  Registrant's partners
	 are Donald A. Bettex, Ralph W. Felsten, Stanley Katzman, Peter L.
	 Malkin, Martin D. Newman, Melvyn H. Halper and C. Michael Spero,
	 (collectively the "Partners"), each of whom also acts as an agent
	 for holders of participations (the "Participants") in their
	 respective partnership interests in Registrant.  

		   Registrant leases the Property to Lincoln Building
	 Associates ("Lessee") under a long-term net operating lease (the
	 "Lease"), the current term of which expires on September 30, 2008.
	 (There is one additional 25-year term which, if exercised, will
	 extend the Lease until September 30, 2033.)  Lessee is a
	 partnership whose partners consist of, among others, Mr. Malkin.
	 The Partners are also members of the law firm of Wien, Malkin &
	 Bettex, 60 East 42nd Street, New York, New York, counsel to
	 Registrant and Lessee ("Counsel").  See Note C of this Item 1
	 ("Note C").

		   The Lease, as modified, provides that Lessee is required
	 to pay Registrant:<PAGE>
         
<PAGE>                              
	 60 East 42nd St. Associates                                     6.

	 March 31, 1996


		   (i)  an annual basic rent of $1,087,842 (the "Basic
	 Rent"), which is equal to the sum of $1,063,842, the constant
	 annual charges on the first mortgage calculated in accordance with
	 the terms of the Lease plus $24,000 for supervisory services
	 payable to Counsel.  

		  (ii)  (A) additional rent (the "Additional Rent") equal
	 to the lesser of (x) Lessee's net operating income for the
	 preceding lease year or (y) $1,053,800 and (B) further additional
	 rent (the "Further Additional Rent") equal to 50% of any remaining
	 balance of Lessee's net operating income for such lease year.
	 (Lessee has no obligation to make any payment of Additional Rent
	 or Further Additional Rent until after Lessee has recouped any
	 cumulative operating loss accruing from and after September 30,
	 1977.)  

		 (iii)  as an advance against Additional Rent, an amount
	 which will permit basic distributions to Participants at the
	 annual rate of 10% on their remaining cash investment in
	 Registrant; provided, however, if such advances exceed Lessee's
	 net operating income for any Lease year, advances otherwise
	 required during the subsequent lease year shall be reduced by an
	 amount equal to such excess until Lessee shall have recovered,
	 through retention of net operating income, the full amount of such
	 excess.  

		   Further Additional Rent income is recognized when earned
	 from the Lessee, at the close of the lease year ending September
	 30.  Such income is not determinable until the Lessee, pursuant to
	 the Lease, renders to Registrant a certified report on the
	 operation of the Property.  Further Additional Rent for the lease
	 year ended September 30, 1995 was $1,565,928.  After payment of
	 $156,593 to Counsel as an additional payment for supervisory
	 services, the balance of $1,409,335 was distributed to the
	 Participants on November 30, 1995. 

		   A new first mortgage loan on the Property in the
	 original principal amount of $12,020,814 was closed on October 6,
	 1994 (the "Mortgage").  Annual Mortgage charges are $1,063,842,
	 payable in equal monthly installments of $88,654, representing
	 interest only at the rate of 8.85% per annum.  The Mortgage will
	 mature on October 31, 2004 and is prepayable in whole after
	 October 6, 1995 with a penalty providing interest protection to
	 the mortgagee.  The Mortgage is prepayable in whole without
	 penalty during the 90-day period prior to its maturity date.

	 March 31, 1996


		   The refinancing costs were capitalized by Registrant and
	 are being expensed ratably during the period of the mortgage
	 extension from October 6, 1994 to October 31, 2004.  

		   If the Mortgage is modified, upon the first refinancing
	 which would result in an increase in the amount of the outstanding
	 principal balance of the mortgage, the basic rent shall be equal
	 to the Wien, Malkin & Bettex annual supervisory fee of $24,000
	 plus an amount equal to the product of the new debt service
	 percentage rate under the refinanced mortgage multiplied by the
	 principal balance of the mortgage immediately prior to such
	 refinancing.  If there are subsequent refinancings which result in
	 an increase in the amount of the outstanding principal balance of
	 the mortgage, the principal balance referred to above shall be
	 reduced by the amount of the mortgage amortization payable from
	 basic rent subsequent to the first refinancing.  

	 Note C - Supervisory Services

		   Registrant pays Counsel for supervisory services and
	 disbursements $24,000 per annum (the "Basic Payment"), plus an
	 additional payment of 10% of all distributions to Participants in
	 Registrant in any year in excess of the amount representing a
	 return at the rate of 14% per annum on their remaining cash
	 investment (the "Additional Payment").  At March 31, 1996, such
	 remaining cash investment was $7,000,000 representing the original
	 cash investment of Participants in Registrant.

		   No remuneration was paid during the three month period
	 ended March 31, 1996 by Registrant to any of the Partners as such.
	 Pursuant to the fee arrangements described herein, Registrant paid
	 Counsel $6,000, of the Basic Payment and $1,845 on account of the
	 Additional Payment, for supervisory services for the three month
	 period ended March 31, 1996.  The supervisory services provided to
	 Registrant by Counsel include legal, administrative services and
	 financial services.  The legal and administrative services include
	 acting as general counsel to Registrant, maintaining all of its
	 partnership records, performing physical inspections of the
	 Building, reviewing insurance coverage and conducting annual
	 partnership meetings.  Financial services include monthly receipt
	 of rent from the Lessee, payment of monthly and additional
	 distributions to the Participants, payment of all other
	 disbursements, confirmation of the payment of real estate taxes,
	 and active review of financial statements submitted to Registrant
	 by the Lessee and financial statements audited by and tax
	 information prepared by Registrants' independent certified public
	 accountant, and distribution of such materials to the
	 Participants.  Counsel also prepares quarterly, annual and other
	 periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and 
	 applicable state authorities.<PAGE>

	 March 31, 1996



		   Reference is made to Note B for a description of the
	 terms of the Lease between Registrant and Lessee.  As of March 31,
	 1996, Mr. Malkin owned a partnership interest in Lessee.  The
	 respective interests, if any, of the Partners in Registrant and
	 Lessee arise solely from ownership of their respective
	 participations in Registrant and, in the case of Mr. Malkin, his
	 individual ownership of a partnership interest in Lessee.  The
	 Partners receive no extra or special benefit not shared on a pro
	 rata basis with all other Participants in Registrant or partners
	 in Lessee.  However, the Partners, by reason of their respective
	 interests in Counsel, are entitled to receive their pro rata share
	 of any legal fees or other remuneration paid to Counsel for legal
	 services rendered to Registrant and Lessee.

		   As of March 31, 1996, the Partners owned of record and
	 beneficially an aggregate $59,583 of participations in Registrant,
	 representing less than 1% of the currently outstanding
	 participations therein.

		   In addition, as of March 31, 1996, certain of the
	 Partners in Registrant (or their respective spouses) held
	 additional Participations in Registrant as follows:

		   C. Michael Spero owned of record as trustee or
		   co-trustee, but not beneficially, $25,000 of
		   Participations.  Mr. Spero disclaims any beneficial
		   ownership of such Participations.

		   Peter L. Malkin owned of record as trustee or
		   co-trustee, an aggregate of $55,714 of Participations.
		   Mr. Malkin disclaims any beneficial ownership of such
		   Participations.

		   Isabel Malkin, the wife of Peter L. Malkin, individually
		   and beneficially, owned $35,000 of Participations.
		   Mr. Malkin disclaims any beneficial ownership of such
		   Participations.

	 Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of
		   Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

		   As stated in Note B, Registrant was organized solely for
	 the purpose of acquiring the Property subject to a net operating
	 lease held by Lessee.  Registrant is required to pay from Basic
	 Rent the annual mortgage charges due under the Mortgage and the
	 Basic Payment to Counsel for supervisory services.  The balance of
	 such Basic Rent is distributed to the Participants.  Additional

	 60 East 42nd St. Associates                                     9.

	 March 31, 1996


	 Rent and Further Additional Rent is distributed to the
	 Participants after the Additional Payment to Counsel.  See Note C
	 of Item 1 above.  Under the Lease, Lessee has assumed sole
	 responsibility for the condition, operation, repair, maintenance
	 and management of the Property.  Registrant is not required to
	 maintain substantial reserves or otherwise maintain liquid assets
	 to defray any operating expenses of the Property.

		   Registrant does not pay dividends.  During the three
	 month period ended March 31, 1996, Registrant made regular monthly
	 distributions of $124.57 for each $10,000 participation ($1,494.89
	 per annum for each $10,000 participation).  There are no
	 restrictions on Registrant's present or future ability to make
	 distributions; however, the amount of such distributions depends
	 solely on the ability of Lessee to make payments of Basic Rent,
	 Additional Rent and Further Additional Rent to Registrant in
	 accordance with the terms of the Lease.  Registrant expects to
	 make distributions so long as it receives the payments provided
	 for under the Lease.

		   On November 30, 1995, Registrant made an additional
	 distribution of $2,013.34 for each $10,000 participation.  Such
	 distribution represented Further Additional Rent paid by the
	 Lessee in accordance with the terms of the Lease.

		   Registrant's results of operations are affected
	 primarily by the amount of rent payable to it under the Lease.
	 The following summarizes, with respect to the current period and
	 the corresponding period of the previous year, the material
	 factors affecting Registrant's results of operations for such
	 periods:  

	      Total income remained the same for the three month
	      period ended March 31, 1996, as compared with the
	      three month period ended March 31, 1995.  Total
	      expenses remained the same for the three month period
	      ended March 31, 1996, as compared with the three month
	      period ended March 31, 1995.

			   Liquidity and Capital Resources

		   There has been no significant change in Registrant's
	 liquidity for the three month period ended March 31, 1996, as
	 compared with the three month period ended March 31, 1995.<PAGE>

		   No amortization payments are due under the Mortgage to
	 fully satisfy the outstanding principal balance at maturity, and
	 furthermore, the Registrant does not maintain any reserve to cover
	 the payment of such Mortgage indebtedness at maturity.  Therefore,
	 repayment of the Mortgage will depend on Registrant's ability to
	 arrange a refinancing.  Assuming that the Building continues to
	 generate an annual net profit in future years comparable to that
	 in past years, and assuming further that current real estate
	 trends continue in the geographic area in which the Property is
	 located, Registrant anticipates that the value of the Property
	 would be in excess of the amount of the Mortgage balance at
	 maturity.  Registrant foresees no need to make material
	 commitments for capital expenditures while the Lease is in effect.

				      Inflation

		   Registrant has been advised that there has been no
	 material change in the impact of inflation on its operations since
	 the filing of its report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
	 31, 1995, which report and all exhibits thereto are incorporated
	 herein by reference and made a part hereof.


	 PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

	 Item 1.  Legal Proceedings.

		   There are no pending material legal proceedings to which
	 Registrant is a party.

	 Item 6.   Exhibits and Reports on Form 8-K.

		   (a)  The exhibits hereto are being incorporated by
	 reference.

		   (b)  Registrant has not filed any report on Form 8-K
	 during the quarter for which this report is being filed.<PAGE>
