                               December 1, 1997


TO: NON-RESPONDING PARTICIPANTS IN 60 EAST 42ND ST. ASSOCIATES


     As we previously  advised you, the  designation  of new successor  Agents
recommended  in the Agent's  September 4, 1997 letter has been approved and is
now in effect in each Group.

     We have also  received  approximately  90% consent for the service by one
Agent for more than one Group and the change to a vote of 66 2/3% in  interest
in a  Group,  without  a  buyout  at book  value,  to  approve  a  significant
transaction.  Because we have not  received  your  response,  I am enclosing a
duplicate Consent Form.

     The  Agents  strongly  recommend  that you  promptly  sign and return the
enclosed  Consent  Form.  If you have any question,  please  communicate  with
Stanley Katzman, Richard Shapiro or Alvin Silverman, partners in Wien & Malkin
LLP, by mail at 60 East 42nd Street, New York, New York 10165, by telephone at
212-687-8700, or by fax at 212-986-7679.

     Thank you for your cooperation.

                                                    Sincerely,

                                                   /s/ Peter L. Malkin
