Item 2. Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

Downers Grove Market, Downers Grove, Illinois

On March 25, 1998, the  Company  acquired  the  entire fee simple interest in a
Neighborhood Retail Center  located  at  Ogden  and  Williams Street in Downers
Grove, Illinois known as "Downers  Grove  Market" from T-L Downers Grove Plaza,
Inc., an unaffiliated third party, for approximately $17,679,000.  The purchase
price was funded using  cash  and  cash  equivalents.    The purchase price was
approximately $169.27 per square foot, which the Company concluded was fair and
reasonable and within the range of values indicated in an appraisal received by
the Company and presented to the Company's Board. 

Downers Grove Market was completed in  1998 and consists of a one-story, multi-
tenant retail facilities  aggregating  104,449  rentable  square  feet.   As of
February 28, 1998, Downers  Grove  Market  was  78%  leased (100% leased if the
master lease, which lasts for one  year, is considered).  In evaluating Downers
Grove Market as a potential  acquisition,  the  Company considered a variety of
factors including location, demographics,  tenant  mix,  price per square foot,
existing rental rates compared  to  market  rates,  and occupancy.  The Company
believes that the  center  is  located  within  a  vibrant  economic area.  The
Company's management believes that retenanting of any space which is vacated in
the future  should  be  accomplished  relatively  quickly  and  at rental rates
comparable to those currently paid by the tenants at the facility.  The Company
did not consider  any  other  factors  materially  relevant  to the decision to
acquire the property.  

The Company does not anticipate making any significant repairs and improvements
to Downers Grove Market over the next few years.  Nevertheless, pursuant to the
leases, a substantial portion of any  cost of repairs and improvements would be
paid by the tenants.

One tenant leases more than 10%  of  the total square footage, Dominick's Finer
Foods, a grocery store.  This  lease  requires the payment of base annual rent,
payable monthly as follows:


                                           Base Rent   
                                          Per Square

For federal income tax  purposes,  the  Company's  depreciable basis in Downers
Grove Market will be approximately  $13,500,000.  Depreciation expense, for tax
purposes, will be  computed  using  the  straight-line  method.   Buildings and
improvements are depreciated based upon estimated useful lives of 40 years. 

Construction of Downers Grove Market was completed in 1998 and therefore, prior
year's real estate taxes are not relevant.  




                                      -2-



On March 25, 1998,  a  total  of  104,449  square  feet  was leased to fourteen
tenants at Downers Grove  Market.    The  Company  will receive rental payments
under a master lease agreement  on  any  tenants not yet occupying their space.

The Company received a  letter  appraisal  prepared by an independent appraiser
who is a member  in  good  standing  of  the  American Institute of Real Estate
Appraisers which reported a  fair  market  value  for  the Downers Grove Market
property, as of March  2,  1998,  of  $17,900,000.  Appraisals are estimates of
value and should not be  relied  on  as  a  measure of true worth or realizable
value.

On March 31, 1998, the  Company  acquired  the  entire fee simple interest in a
Neighborhood Retail Center located at  Ogden  Avenue  and Route 83 in Clarendon
Hills, Illinois known as  "St.  James  Crossing"  from H.P. St. James Partners,

31, 1998, St. James Crossing was  91%  leased (100% leased if the master lease,
which lasts for one year, is considered). In evaluating St. James Crossing as a
potential acquisition, the Company  considered  a  variety of factors including
location, demographics, tenant  mix,  price  per  square  foot, existing rental

The Company received a  letter  appraisal  prepared by an independent appraiser
who is a member  in  good  standing  of  the  American Institute of Real Estate
Appraisers which reported  a  fair  market  value  for  the  St. James Crossing
property, as of March 20, 1998,  of  not  less than $7,500,000.  Appraisals are
estimates of value and should not be  relied  on  as a measure of true worth or
realizable value.


Chestnut Court, Darien, Illinois

On March 31, 1998, the  Company  acquired  the  entire fee simple interest in a
Community Center located at  Lemont  Road  and  75th Street in Darien, Illinois
known as "Chestnut Court" from H.P.  Chestnut Court L.P., an unaffiliated third
party, for approximately $16,144,000.  The purchase price was funded using cash
and cash equivalents.  The  purchase  price was approximately $94.95 per square
foot, which the Company concluded was  fair and reasonable and within the range
of values indicated in an  appraisal  received  by the Company and presented to
the Company's board of directors. 

Chestnut Court was built  in  1987  and  consists  of a one-story, multi-tenant
retail  facility  and  a  single-tenant  outlot  building  aggregating  170,027
rentable square feet.  As  of  March  31,  1998,  Chestnut Court was 85% leased
(100% leased if the master lease, which lasts for one year, is considered).  In
evaluating Chestnut Court as a  potential acquisition, the Company considered a
variety of factors  including  location,  demographics,  tenant  mix, price per
square foot, existing rental  rates  compared  to  market rates, and occupancy.
The Company believes that the center is located within a vibrant economic area.
The Company's  management  believes  that  retenanting  of  any  space which is
vacated in the future should  be  accomplished relatively quickly and at rental
rates comparable to those currently paid  by  the tenants at the facility.  The
Company did not consider any other  factors materially relevant to the decision
to acquire the property.  

The Company anticipates making approximately  $450,000  in parking lot and roof
repairs and improvements  to  Chestnut  Court  over  the  next  few years.  The
Company received $116,000 in   credits  at  closing toward the payment of these
costs.

The table below sets forth  certain  information  with respect to the occupancy
rate at Chestnut Court expressed as  a  percentage of total gross leasable area
and the average effective annual base rent per square foot.

                                  (unaudited)


The following unaudited Pro  Forma  Statement  of  Operations of the Company is
presented to effect the acquisitions of  the properties indicated in Note B and
Note C of the Notes to  the  Pro  Forma  Statement of Operations as though they
occurred the earlier of January 1,  1997  or the date operations commenced.  No
pro forma adjustments have been made  for  Oak Forest Commons and Downers Grove
Market as these centers were  completed  in  1998 and no significant operations
existed for the year ended December  31,  1997.   Construction has not begun on
Staples Office Supply Store  and  therefore,  there  were no operations for the
year ended December 31, 1997.  This unaudited Pro Forma Statement of Operations
should be read in conjunction  with  the December 31, 1997 Financial Statements
and the notes thereto as filed on Form 10-K. 

This unaudited Pro Forma Statement  of Operations is not necessarily indicative
of what the actual results  of  operations  would  have been for the year ended
December 31, 1997,  nor  does  it  purport  to  represent  the future financial
position of the  Company.    Unless  otherwise  defined, capitalized terms used
herein shall have the same meaning as in the Prospectus.

    with the SEC on Form 10-K.

    earlier of January 1, 1997 or  the  date operations commenced (May 13, 1997
    for the Glendale Heights Dominick's).   All properties were purchased on an

    Investment Corporation ("IMIC"), an  affiliate  of the Company (the "Short-
    Term Loan"), and (ii) cash and cash equivalents.  The Short-Term Loan bears
    interest at a rate of 9.0% per annum and requires a loan fee of 1/4%.  

    Aurora Commons Shopping Center

    As part of the acquisition  of  Aurora Commons Shopping Center, the Company
    assumed the existing mortgage  loan,  maturing  December 31, 2001, with the

    the first day of each month.

    Lincoln Park Place Shopping Center

    The Company funded the purchase of Lincoln Park Place Shopping Center using
    the proceeds of a short-term loan  maturing  February 7, 1997 in the amount
    of $2,016,110  from  Inland  Mortgage  Investment  Corporation ("IMIC"), an

The Board of Directors

                        Woodfield Plaza Shopping Center
   Notes to Historical Summary of Gross Income and Direct Operating Expenses
                         Year ended December 31, 1997


1.  Business

    Woodfield Plaza Shopping Center (Woodfield Plaza) is located in Schaumburg,
    Illinois.   It  consists  of  approximately  177,418  square  feet of gross
    leasable area and  was  100%  leased  and  occupied  at  December 31, 1997.
    Approximately 47% of Woodfield Plaza  is  leased to one tenant representing
    approximately 34% of total  revenues.    Inland Real Estate Corporation has
    signed a sale and purchase  agreement  for  the purchase of Woodfield Plaza
    from an unaffiliated third party. 

2.  Basis of Presentation

    The Historical  Summary  of  Gross  Income  and  Direct  Operating Expenses
    (Historical Summary) has been  prepared  for  the purpose of complying with
    Rule 3-14 of the Securities and  Exchange Commission Regulation S-X and for
    inclusion in the Registration Statement on  Form S-11 of Inland Real Estate
    Corporation and is not intended to  be a complete presentation of Woodfield
    Plaza's revenues and expenses.  The Historical Summary has been prepared on
    the accrual basis of accounting  and requires management of Woodfield Plaza
    to make estimates and assumptions  that  affect the reported amounts of the
    revenues and expenses  during  the  reporting  period.   Actual results may
    differ from those estimates.

3.  Gross Income

    Woodfield Plaza leases retail space under various lease agreements with its
    tenants.  All leases are  accounted  for  as  operating leases.  The leases
    include provisions under  which  Woodfield  Plaza  is reimbursed for common
    area, real estate, and insurance costs.  Operating expenses and real estate
    tax recoveries reflected in the Historical Summary include amounts for 1997
    expenses for which the tenants have not yet been billed.

    Base rentals are reported  as  income  over  the  lease term as they become
    receivable under the lease provisions.    However, when rentals vary from a
    straight-line basis due to  short-term  rent abatements or escalating rents
    during the lease term, the  income  is recognized based on effective rental
    rates.  Related adjustments  increased  base  rental income by $243,743 for
    the year ended December 31, 1997.

4.  Direct Operating Expenses

    Direct  operating  expenses  include  only   those  costs  expected  to  be
    comparable to the proposed  future  operations  of  Woodfield Plaza.  Costs
    such  as  mortgage  interest,  depreciation,  amortization,  estimated real
    estate  taxes  and  professional  fees  are  excluded  from  the Historical
    Summary.

    Real estate tax  expense  is  estimated  based  upon  bills  for 1996.  The
    difference between the estimate and the  final  tax bill is not expected to
    have a material impact on the Historical Summary.

    Woodfield Plaza is managed pursuant to  the terms of a management agreement
    for a fixed annual fee  of  $62,400.    Subsequent to the sale of Woodfield
    Plaza (note 1),  the  current  management  agreement  will  cease.  Any new
    management agreement may cause  future  management  fees to differ from the
    amounts reflected in the Historical Summary.

   Notes to Historical Summary of Gross Income and Direct Operating Expenses
                         Year ended December 31, 1997


1.  Business

    The Shops at  Coopers  Grove  (Coopers  Grove)  is  located in Country Club
    Hills, Illinois.  It consists of  approximately 72,500 square feet of gross
    leasable area and was approximately 96% leased and occupied at December 31,
    1997.  Approximately 77% of  The  Shops  at  Coopers Grove is leased to one
    tenant representing  approximately  78%  of  total  revenues.   Inland Real
    Estate Corporation  has  signed  a  sale  and  purchase  agreement  for the
    purchase of The Shops at Coopers Grove from an unaffiliated third party. 

2.  Basis of Presentation

    The Historical  Summary  of  Gross  Income  and  Direct  Operating Expenses
    (Historical Summary) has been  prepared  for  the purpose of complying with
    Rule 3-14 of the Securities and  Exchange Commission Regulation S-X and for
    inclusion in the Registration Statement on  Form S-11 of Inland Real Estate
    Corporation and is not intended to  be a complete presentation of The Shops
    at Coopers Grove's revenues and expenses.   The Historical Summary has been
    prepared on the accrual basis of  accounting and requires management of The
    Shops at Coopers Grove to  make  estimates  and assumptions that affect the
    reported amounts of the revenues  and expenses during the reporting period.
    Actual results may differ from those estimates.

3.  Gross Income

    The  Shops  at  Coopers  Grove  leases  retail  space  under  various lease
    agreements with its tenants.    All  leases  are accounted for as operating
    leases.  The leases  include  provisions  under  which The Shops at Coopers
    Grove is reimbursed  for  common  area,  real  estate, and insurance costs.
    Operating  expenses  and  real  estate  tax  recoveries  reflected  in  the
    Historical Summary include amounts for  1997 expenses for which the tenants
    have not yet been billed.

    Base rentals are reported  as  income  over  the  lease term as they become
    receivable under the lease provisions.    However, when rentals vary from a
    straight-line basis due to  short-term  rent abatements or escalating rents
    during the lease term, the  income  is recognized based on effective rental
    rates.  Related adjustments increased base  rental income by $1,664 for the
    year ended December 31, 1997.

    Corporation and is not intended to  be a complete presentation of Lake Park
    Plaza's revenues and expenses.  The Historical Summary has been prepared on
    the accrual basis of accounting and  requires management of Lake Park Plaza
    to make estimates and assumptions  that  affect the reported amounts of the
    revenues and expenses  during  the  reporting  period.   Actual results may
    differ from those estimates.

3.  Gross Income

    Lake Park Plaza leases retail space under various lease agreements with its
    tenants.  All leases are  accounted  for  as  operating leases.  The leases
    include provisions under which  Lake  Park  Plaza  is reimbursed for common
    area, real estate, and insurance costs.  Operating expenses and real estate
    tax recoveries reflected in the Historical Summary include amounts for 1997
    expenses for which tenants have not yet been billed.

    Base rentals are reported  as  income  over  the  lease term as they become
    receivable under the lease provisions.    However, when rentals vary from a
    straight-line basis due to  short-term  rent abatements or escalating rents
    during the lease term, the  income  is recognized based on effective rental
    rates.  Related adjustments increased base  rental income by $5,991 for the
    year ended December 31, 1997.

    such as mortgage interest, depreciation, amortization and professional fees
    are excluded from the Historical Summary.

                                 Bergen Plaza
   Notes to Historical Summary of Gross Income and Direct Operating Expenses
                         Year ended December 31, 1997


1.  Business

    Bergen  Plaza  is  located   in   Oakdale,   Minnesota.    It  consists  of
    approximately 271,000 square feet of gross leasable area and was 97% leased
    and occupied at December 31,  1997.    Approximately 56% of Bergen Plaza is
    leased to two tenants representing approximately 40% of base rental income.
    Inland Real Estate Corporation has signed a sale and purchase agreement for
    the purchase of Bergen Plaza from an unaffiliated third party (seller). 

2.  Basis of Presentation

    The Historical  Summary  of  Gross  Income  and  Direct  Operating Expenses
    (Historical Summary) has been  prepared  for  the purpose of complying with
    Rule 3-14 of the Securities and  Exchange Commission Regulation S-X and for
    inclusion in the Registration Statement on  Form S-11 of Inland Real Estate
    Corporation and is not  intended  to  be  a complete presentation of Bergen
    Plaza's revenues and expenses.  The Historical Summary has been prepared on
    the accrual basis of accounting and  requires management of Bergen Plaza to
    make estimates and  assumptions  that  affect  the  reported amounts of the
    revenues and expenses  during  the  reporting  period.   Actual results may
    differ from those estimates.

3.  Gross Income

    Bergen Plaza leases retail  space  under  various lease agreements with its
    tenants.  All leases are  accounted  for  as  operating leases.  The leases
    include provisions under which Bergen  Plaza is reimbursed for common area,
    real estate, and insurance costs.    Operating expenses and real estate tax
    recoveries reflected in  the  Historical  Summary  include amounts for 1997
    expenses for which the tenants have not yet been billed.

    Base rentals are reported  as  income  over  the  lease term as they become
    receivable under the lease provisions.    However, when rentals vary from a
    straight-line basis due to  short-term  rent abatements or escalating rents
    during the lease term, the  income  is recognized based on effective rental
    rates.  Related adjustments increased base  rental income by $2,193 for the
    year ended December 31, 1997.

    Minimum rents to be received from  tenants under operating leases in effect
    at December 31, 1997 are as follows: 

                                Year          Amount

                                            ===========

4.  Direct Operating Expenses

    Direct  operating  expenses  include  only   those  costs  expected  to  be
    comparable to the proposed future  operations  of Bergen Plaza.  Costs such
    as mortgage interest, depreciation,  amortization and professional fees are
    excluded from the Historical Summary.

    Bergen Plaza has not received its final real estate tax bill for 1997. Real
    estate tax expense is estimated based  upon bills for 1996.  The difference
    between the estimate and  the  final  tax  bill  is  not expected to have a
    material impact on the Historical Summary.

    Bergen Plaza is managed  pursuant  to  the  terms of a management agreement
    with the Seller for an annual  fee  of  5%  of revenues (as defined) and an
    administrative  fee  equal  to  5%  of  operating  expense  recoveries  (as
    defined).  Subsequent to the  sale  of  Bergen  Plaza (note 1), the current
    management agreement will cease.    Any  new management agreement may cause
    future  management  fees  to  differ  from  the  amounts  reflected  in the
    Historical Summary.

4.  Direct Operating Expenses

    Direct  operating  expenses  include  only   those  costs  expected  to  be
    comparable to the proposed  future  operations of Wauconda Shopping Center.
    Costs  such   as   mortgage   interest,   depreciation,   amortization  and
    professional fees are excluded from the Historical Summary.

    Wauconda Shopping Center has not  received  its  final real estate tax bill
    for 1997. Real estate tax expense  is estimated based upon bills from 1996.
    The difference between the estimate and  the final tax bill is not expected
    to have a material impact on the Historical Summary.

    Wauconda Shopping Center is managed  pursuant  to the terms of a management
    agreement for an annual fee of 5% of base rents.  Subsequent to the sale of
    Wauconda Shopping Center (note  1),  the  current management agreement will
    cease.  Any new management  agreement  may  cause future management fees to
    differ from the amounts reflected in the Historical Summary.

                                  Mill Creek
   Notes to Historical Summary of Gross Income and Direct Operating Expenses
                         Year ended December 31, 1997


1.  Business

    Mill Creek is located  in  Palos  Park,  Illinois.   It consists of 102,428
    square feet of gross  leasable  area  and  was  98%  leased and occupied at
    December 31, 1997.  Approximately 65% of Mill Creek is leased to one tenant
    representing approximately  56%  of  total  revenues.    Inland Real Estate
    Corporation has signed a sale  and  purchase  agreement for the purchase of
    Mill Creek from an unaffiliated third party. 

2.  Basis of Presentation

    The Historical  Summary  of  Gross  Income  and  Direct  Operating Expenses
    (Historical Summary) has been  prepared  for  the purpose of complying with
    Rule 3-14 of the Securities and  Exchange Commission Regulation S-X and for
    inclusion in the Registration Statement on  Form S-11 of Inland Real Estate
    Corporation and is  not  intended  to  be  a  complete presentation of Mill
    Creek's revenues and expenses.  The Historical Summary has been prepared on
    the accrual basis of accounting  and  requires  management of Mill Creek to
    make estimates and  assumptions  that  affect  the  reported amounts of the
    revenues and expenses  during  the  reporting  period.   Actual results may
    differ from those estimates.

3.  Gross Income

    Mill Creek leases  retail  space  under  various  lease agreements with its
    tenants.  All leases are  accounted  for  as  operating leases.  The leases
    include provisions under which  Mill  Creek  is reimbursed for common area,
    real estate, and insurance costs.    Operating expenses and real estate tax
    recoveries reflected in  the  Historical  Summary  include amounts for 1997
    expenses for which the tenants have not yet been billed.

    Base rentals are reported  as  income  over  the  lease term as they become
    receivable under the lease provisions.    However, when rentals vary from a
    straight-line basis due to  short-term  rent abatements or escalating rents
    during the lease term, the  income  is recognized based on effective rental
    rates.  Related adjustments increased base rental income by $21,505 for the
    year ended December 31, 1997.

                                            ===========

4.  Direct Operating Expenses

    Direct  operating  expenses  include  only   those  costs  expected  to  be
    comparable to the proposed future operations  of Mill Creek.  Costs such as
    mortgage interest,  depreciation,  amortization  and  professional fees are
    excluded from the Historical Summary.

    Mill Creek has not received its real estate tax bill for 1997.  Real estate
    tax expense is estimated based upon bills for 1996.  The difference between
    the estimate and the final  tax  bill  is  not  expected to have a material
    impact on the Historical Summary.

    Mill Creek is managed pursuant to  the  terms of a management agreement for
    $3,000 per month (for a total of $36,000 per year).  Subsequent to the sale
    of Mill Creek (note 1), the  current  management agreement will cease.  Any
    new management agreement may  cause  future  management fees to differ from
    the amounts reflected in the Historical Summary.
