ITEM 5.  OTHER EVENTS

         6701 TOWER, TWO TOWN CENTER and WOODFIELD CORPORATE CENTER. On June 30,
1998, as previously reported, the Company reached an agreement to acquire the
office properties/complexes of 6701 Tower, Two Town Center and Woodfield
Corporate Center from an unaffiliated entity. Completion of the acquisition was
subject to various closing conditions. As of September 10, 1998, the Company and
the unaffiliated entity ceased negotiations regarding the acquisition. As a
result, the Company no longer considers the acquisition of 6701 Tower, Two Town
Center and Woodfield Corporate Center to be probable.

         BP PLAZA. On July 1, 1998, the Company acquired BP Plaza, a 20-story
Class A office property and 3.2 acres of adjacent undeveloped land located in
the Katy Freeway submarket of Houston, Texas. Construction of the office
property was completed in 1992. Situated on a 5.8-acre site, BP Plaza contains
approximately 561,000 square feet of net rentable area with an attached
six-level above ground parking structure that accommodates approximately 1,700
cars.

         The Company acquired fee simple title to BP Plaza and the undeveloped
land from an unaffiliated entity for approximately $83 million primarily funded
through the Company's unsecured $750 million credit facility from a consortium
of banks led by BankBoston, N.A.

         BP Plaza was 100% occupied as of July 1, 1998, with a weighted average
full-service rental rate per square foot of $18.13. BP Plaza is leased to
approximately six tenants having principal businesses in the energy sector. As
of July 1, 1998 the weighted average remaining lease term for BP Plaza tenants
was approximately 8.8 years. As of July 1, 1998, two tenants leased 10% or more
of the total net rentable area of the property.

         As of July 1, 1998, BP Exploration and Oil, Inc., an energy company,
leased approximately 380,000 net rentable square feet (approximately 68% of the
net rentable area of BP Plaza) pursuant to a lease that expires in June 2010.
The current base rental rate per square foot for this lease is $18.10, with
increases every three years on July 1, throughout the remainder of the lease.
There are no specific expansion options under the lease; however, the tenant is
entitled to a preferential right on all space within the building that is not
subject to a superior right held by another tenant. The first renewal option is
for a period of three years, beginning at the end of the initial twelve year
term 




                                       3

and may be exercised only for the entire premises at the then-prevailing market
rate. Thereafter, the tenant may renew the lease for all or a portion of the
space for periods between five and fifteen years, up to a maximum of thirty
years, at the then-prevailing market rate.

         As of July 1, 1998, Union Pacific Resources Company leased
approximately 75,000 net rentable square feet (approximately 13% of the net
rentable area of BP Plaza). The lease expires in May 2004 and has a current base
rental rate per square foot of $17.71 which remains in effect until expiration.
The lease provides for two five-year renewal options, both of which are
subordinate to BP Exploration and Oil, Inc.'s preferential right.

         The Katy Freeway submarket contains 2.3 million square feet of Class A
multi-tenant office space, which was approximately 4.2% of Houston's total Class
A multi-tenant office space at March 31, 1998. At March 31, 1998, the Katy
Freeway Class A multi-tenant office space was 98% occupied, and the average
quoted full-service market rental rate was $23.00 per available square foot. The
above submarket information has been provided by Baca Landata, Inc.

        The aggregate tax basis of depreciable real property and improvements
and personal property for BP Plaza for federal income tax purposes is $79.2
million. For federal income tax purposes, depreciation is computed using the
straight-line method over lives which range from 15 to 39 years for the real
property and improvements, and the double-declining balance method over lives
which range from 5 to 7 years for the personal property.

         The 1997 realty tax rate for real property was 3.09% of the assessed
value of $43 million for BP Plaza. The total amount of tax at this rate for 1997
is $1.3 million.

         For the year ended December 31, 1997 and the four months ended April
30, 1998, utilities expense was approximately $.5 million and $.2 million,
respectively and expenses for repairs, maintenance and contract services were
approximately $1.3 million and $.5 million respectively.

        The Company does not plan to renovate BP Plaza, other than expenditures
associated with the routine maintenance of the property.

        The following table sets forth year-end occupancy and average 
full-service rental rates per leased square foot for BP Plaza for the years
ended December 31, 1996 and 1997. Information for prior periods is not
available.

</TABLE>


(1)     Prior to July 1, 1998 BP Exploration and Oil, Inc. owned BP Plaza and
        occupied approximately 68% of the net rentable area of BP Plaza. Since
        there was no lease in place for this area until July 1998, the average
        full- service rental rates for prior periods would not be meaningful.

         The following table sets forth a schedule of lease expirations for
leases in place as of July 1, 1998, for BP Plaza, for each of the 10 years
beginning with the remainder of 1998, assuming that none of the tenants exercise
renewal options.

                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS



To the Partners of
Crescent Real Estate Equities Limited Partnership:

We have audited the accompanying statements of excess of specific operating
expenses over revenues (as defined in Note 2) of BP Plaza for the year ended
December 31, 1997, and for the four months in the period ended April 30, 1998.
These statements are the responsibility of the Property's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the statement. An audit also includes assessing
the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as
well as evaluating the overall statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the statements referred to above present fairly, in all material
respects, the excess of specific operating expenses over revenues of BP Plaza
for the year ended December 31, 1997, and for the four months in the period
ended April 30, 1998, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

                        NOTES TO STATEMENTS OF EXCESS OF
                    SPECIFIC OPERATING EXPENSES OVER REVENUES

                      DECEMBER 31, 1997, AND APRIL 30, 1998


1.   ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

Description of Property

BP Plaza (the "Property") is a 20-story office tower located in Houston, Texas.
The Property contains 561,065 rentable square feet as well as a 6-level parking
garage which contains approximately 1,700 parking spaces.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.

Rental Income and Deferred Rent Concessions

In connection with obtaining certain tenants under long-term leases, property
management grants rent concessions. The aggregate rental payments due over the
terms of the leases are recognized as rental income on a straight-line basis
over the full term of the leases, including the periods of rent concessions. For
the year ended December 31, 1997, and for the four months in the period ended
April 30, 1998, actual rental income billed exceeded rental income on the
straight-line basis by $250,810 and $84,890, respectively. Included in office
rent for the year ended December 31, 1997, is approximately $309,013 of rent
concessions not previously recognized relating to tenants terminating its lease
in that year.

   
The owner of the Property occupied 379,817 square feet, of which there was no
lease for 338,105 square feet, and, accordingly, no rental income was
recognized.
    

Recoveries

A portion of the operating expenses is charged back to tenants on a monthly
basis based upon estimated expenses. These charges are adjusted at period-end,
based upon actual expenses.

2.   BASIS OF ACCOUNTING:

The accompanying statements of excess of specific operating expenses over
revenues are presented on the accrual basis of accounting. These statements are
not intended to be a complete presentation of revenues and operating expenses
for the year ended December 31, 1997, and for the four months in the period
ended April 30, 1998, as certain items such as depreciation, amortization and
interest expenses have been excluded since they are not comparable to the
proposed future operations of the Property.

3.   PROPERTY MANAGEMENT:

The Property has a management agreement with Partrinely Group Inc. (the
"Manager") which expires on December 31, 2001. The agreement with the Manager
requires a management fee of 3% of gross rental receipts, as defined, for the
majority of tenants and $7,500 per month for one tenant. Total management fees
for the year ended December 31, 1997, and for the four months in the period
ended April 30, 1998, were approximately $216,000 and $74,000, respectively.

4.   SIGNIFICANT TENANTS:

The owner of the Property occupies approximately 379,817 square feet, or 68%, of
the total leasable square footage. The second largest tenant of the Property
occupies approximately 74,981 square feet, or 13%, of the total leasable square
footage. This lease expires in May 2004.
