	 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 periods 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, John L. Loehr, Thomas N. Keltner, Jr. and Richard A.
	 Shapiro (collectively the "Partners"), each of whom also acts as
	 an agent for holders of participations in their respective part-
	 nership interests in Registrant (the "Participants").  

		   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, with the exception of Donald A. Bettex, who has
	 recently retired, 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>
	 60 East 42nd St. Associates                                     6.
	 September 30, 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 ("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)  $1,053,800 as an advance against Additional Rent,
	 an amount which will permit basic distributions to Participants at
	 the annual rate of approximately 14.95% 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, 1996 was $2,051,475.  After payment of
	 $205,148 to Counsel as an additional payment for supervisory
	 services, the balance of $1,846,327 will be distributed to the
	 Participants on November 30, 1996. 

		   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.  

		   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.  <PAGE>
	 60 East 42nd St. Associates                                     7.
	 September 30, 1996


		   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 annual supervisory fee to Counsel 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 September 30, 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 and nine month
	 periods ended September 30, 1996 by Registrant to any of the
	 Partners as such.  Pursuant to the fee arrangements described
	 herein, Registrant paid Counsel $6,000 and $18,000, respectively,
	 of the Basic Payment and $151,845 and $155,535 respectively, on
	 account of the Additional Payment, for supervisory services for
	 the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1996.  The
	 supervisory services provided to Registrant by Counsel include
	 legal and administrative services and financial services.  The
	 legal and administrative services include acting as general
	 counsel to Registrant, maintaining all of its partnership and
	 Participant 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.

		   Reference is made to Note B of Item 1 ("Note B") for a
	 description of the terms of the Lease between Registrant and
	 Lessee.  As of September 30, 1996, Mr. Malkin owned a partnership
	 interest in Lessee.  In addition, Isabel W. Malkin, the wife of
	 Peter L. Malkin, owned a partnership interest in Lessee.  Mr.<PAGE>

	 September 30, 1996


	 Malkin disclaims any beneficial ownership of such interest.  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, other than Mr. Bettex, 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 and supervisory services
	 rendered to Registrant and Lessee.

		   As of September 30, 1996, the Partners owned of record
	 and beneficially an aggregate $53,333 of participations in
	 Registrant, representing less than 1% of the currently outstanding
	 participations therein.

		   In addition, as of September 30, 1996, certain of the
	 Partners in Registrant (or their respective spouses) held
	 additional Participations in Registrant as follows:

		   Richard A. Shapiro owned of record as custodian, but not
		   beneficially, a $5,000 Participation.  Mr. Shapiro
		   disclaims any beneficial ownership of such
		   Participation.

		   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, 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 the Lease.
	 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.  Additional Rent and Further Additional
	 Rent are distributed to the Participants after the Additional
	 Payment to Counsel.  See Note C.  Under the Lease, Lessee has
	 assumed 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.<PAGE>
	 60 East 42nd St. Associates                                     9.
	 September 30, 1996


		   Registrant does not pay dividends.  During the three and
	 nine month periods ended September 30, 1996, Registrant made
	 regular monthly distributions of $124.57 for each $10,000
	 participation ($1,494.84 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, 1996, Registrant will make an additional
	 distribution of $2,637.61 for each $10,000 participation.  Such
	 distribution represents Further Additional Rent paid by the
	 Lessee, in accordance with the terms of the Lease, net of the
	 additional payment for supervisory services to Counsel.

		   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 increased for the three and nine month
	      periods ended September 30, 1996, as compared with the
	      three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1995.
	      Such increase resulted from an increase in income from
	      Further Additional Rent for the lease year ending
	      September 30, 1996 as compared to the lease year
	      ending September 30, 1995.  See Note B.  Total
	      expenses increased for the three and nine month
	      periods ended September 30, 1996, as compared with the
	      three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1995.
	      Such increase resulted from an increase in the
	      additional payments for supervisory services with
	      respect to the increase in Further Additional Rent.
	      See Note B.

			   Liquidity and Capital Resources

		   There has been no significant change in Registrant's
	 liquidity for the three and nine month periods ended September 30,
	 1996, as compared with the three and nine month periods ended
	 September 30, 1995.


		   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,<PAGE>

	 September 30, 1996


	 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 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>
