Dear Shareholder:
We are pleased to provide you with the semi-annual report for the Greenwich
Street California Municipal Fund Inc. ("Fund") for the period ended February 28,
1997. During the past six months, the Fund distributed income dividends totaling
$0.29 per share and a capital gain of $0.33 per share. The table below shows the
annualized distribution rates and six-month total returns based on the Fund's
February 28, 1997 net asset value (NAV) per share and New York Stock Exchange
(NYSE) closing price:
Annualized Six-Month
Price Per Share Distribution Rate* Total Return
--------------- ------------------ ------------
$13.32 (NAV) 5.23% 6.52%
$12.75 (NYSE) 5.46% 10.41%
The Fund performed roughly in line with the Fund's Lipper Analytical Services,
Inc. peer group total return average of 6.04% on NAV for the same period.
(Lipper Analytical Services, Inc. is a major fund tracking organization.)
Municipal Bond Market Update
The year ended February 28, 1997 proved to be a volatile one for both the
municipal and the U.S. government bond markets. In early 1996, a significant
bond market sell-off was precipitated by a pick-up in inflationary fears that
was caused by unexpected strength in the U.S. economy and concerns that the
Federal Reserve Board ("Fed") would tighten rates in response. In retrospect,
those concerns were unfounded because Fed monetary policy did not change
throughout 1996. In fact, as U.S. economic growth moderated and concerns about
Fed tightening eased, bond prices improved significantly.
This bond market rally was in full swing in early December when Fed Chairman
Alan Greenspan made his now infamous comment concerning "irrational exuberance"
in the financial markets. In our view, Greenspan's comments caused a rise in
U.S. interest rates that persists to this day.
California Economic Highlights
The California economy continues to display impressive growth. Led by the
electronics, manufacturing, international trade and entertainment industries,
employment gains continue to diversify and strengthen California's economy.

per share for twelve months.*

<PAGE>
The state's robust job growth has in turn caused strong increases in both retail
sales and industrial production. Although residential real estate prices have
recently showed signs of leveling off, California's commercial real estate
market has improved dramatically with lower office vacancies and stronger
overall sales. In fact, the marked improvements in California's economy has
helped its state budget revenues to consistently exceed forecasts throughout the
year.
Fund's Investment Strategy
The Greenwich Street California Muncipal Fund's investment focus in California
has been to purchase high grade essential service bonds such as transportation,
water, and sewer bonds. These types of securities tend to be very liquid and
should provide maximum upside potential if interest rates decline. In addition,
since the California state economy has improved dramatically during the
reporting period, we have recently added state general obligation bonds and
state appropriated debt (i.e., bonds that rely on state budget appropriations
for payment of debt service) to the Fund. As of February 28, 1997, the Fund's
weighted average maturity was 25.4 years.
At the end of February, approximately 93% of the Fund's holdings were rated
investment grade (BBB/Baa and higher) by either Standard & Poor's Corporation or
Moody's Investors Service Inc. with about 44.2% of the Fund invested in AAA
bonds, the highest possible rating. (Standard & Poor's and Moody's are two major
credit reporting and bond rating agencies.)
Municipal Bond Market Outlook
We believe that low inflation and some moderation of recent economic activity
should be positive for interest rates for the balance of 1997. Notwithstanding
any increase by the Fed in short-term rates, the prices of long bonds today
relative to the rate of inflation bodes well for municipal bonds as the year
progresses. Until we see a significant increase in inflation fundamentals, we
remain positive about the municipal bond market's prospects.
In closing, thank you for investing in the Greenwich Street California Municipal
Fund. We look forward to continuing to help you achieve your financial goals.
Sincerely,
/s/ Heath B. mcLendon /s/ J P Deane

Bond Ratings
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
All ratings are by Standard & Poor's Ratings Service ("Standard & Poor's"),
except that those identified by an asterisk (*) are rated by Moody's Investors
Service, Inc. ("Moody's"). The definitions of the applicable rating symbols are
set forth below:
Standard & Poor's -- Ratings from "AA" to "BBB" may be modified by the addition
of a plus (+) or a minus (-) sign to show relative standings within the major
rating categories.
AAA -- Bonds rated "AAA" have the highest rating assigned by Standard & Poor's.
Capacity to pay interest and repay principal is extremely strong.
AA -- Bonds rated "AA" have a very strong capacity to pay interest and repay
principal and differ from the highest rated issue only in a small degree.
A -- Bonds rated "A" have a strong capacity to pay interest and repay
principal although it is somewhat more susceptible to the adverse effects
of changes in circumstances and economic conditions than debt in higher
rated categories.
BBB -- Bonds rated "BBB" are regarded as having an adequate capacity to pay
interest and repay principal. Whereas they normally exhibit adequate
protection parameters, adverse economic conditions or changing
circumstances are more likely to lead to a weakened capacity to pay
interest and repay principal for bonds in this category than in higher
rated categories.
Moody's -- Numerical modifiers 1, 2, and 3 may be applied to each generic rating
from "Aa" to "Baa", where 1 is the highest and 3 the lowest rating within its
generic category.
Aaa -- Bonds that are rated "Aaa" are judged to be of the best quality. They
carry the smallest degree of investment risk and are generally referred
to as "gilt edge." Interest payments are protected by a large or by an
exceptionally stable margin and principal is secure. While the various
protective elements are likely to change, such changes as can be
visualized are most unlikely to impair the fundamentally strong position
of such issues.
Aa -- Bonds that are rated "Aa" are judged to be of high quality by all
standards. Together with the "Aaa" group they comprise what are
generally known as high grade bonds. They are rated lower than the best
bonds because margins of protection may not be as large as in "Aaa"
securities or fluctuation of protective elements may be of greater
amplitude or there may be other elements present which make the
long-term risks appear somewhat larger than in "Aaa" securities.
A -- Bonds that are rated "A" possess many favorable investment attributes
and are to be considered as upper medium grade obligations. Factors
giving security to principal and interest are considered adequate but
elements may be present which suggest a susceptibility to impairment
some time in the future.
Baa -- Bonds that are rated "Baa" are considered as medium grade obligations,
i.e., they are neither highly protected nor poorly secured. Interest
payments and principal security appear adequate for the present but
certain protective elements may be lacking or may be characteristically
unreliable over any great length of time. Such bonds lack outstanding
investment characteristics and in fact have speculative characteristics
as well.
NR -- Indicates that the bond is not rated by Standard & Poor's or Moody's.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Short-Term Securities Ratings
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SP-1 -- Standard & Poor's highest rating indicating very strong or strong
capacity to pay principal and interest; those issues determined to
possess overwhelming safety characteristics are denoted with a plus
(+) sign.
A-1 -- Standard & Poor's highest commercial paper and variable-rate demand
obligation (VRDO) rating indicating that the degree of safety
regarding timely payment is either overwhelming or very strong; those
issues determined to possess overwhelming safety characteristics are
denoted with a plus (+) sign.
VMIG 1 -- Moody's highest rating for issues having demand feature -- VRDO.

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Greenwich Street California Municipal Fund Inc. ("Fund"), a Maryland
corporation, is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended,
as a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company.
The significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund are:
(a) security transactions are accounted for on trade date; (b) securities are
valued at the mean between the bid and ask prices provided by an independent
pricing service that are based on transactions in municipal obligations,
quotations from municipal bond dealers, market transactions in comparable
securities and various relationships between securities; (c) securities maturing
within 60 days or less are valued at cost plus accreted discount, or minus
amortized premium, which approximates value; (d) gains or losses on the sale of
securities are calculated by using the specific identification method; (e)
interest income, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of original
issue discount, is recorded on the accrual basis; market discount is recognized
upon the disposition of the security; (f) dividends and distributions to
shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date; (g) the character of income
and gains to be distributed are determined in accordance with income tax
regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. At
August 31, 1996, reclassifications were made to the Fund's capital accounts to
reflect permanent book/tax differences and income and gains available for
distributions under income tax regulations. Net investment income, net realized
gains and net assets were not affected by this change; (h) the Fund intends to
comply with the applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended, pertaining to regulated investment companies and make distributions of
taxable income sufficient to relieve it from substantially all Federal income
and excise taxes; and (i) estimates and assumptions are required to be made
regarding assets, liabilities and changes in net assets resulting from
operations when financial statements are prepared. Changes in the economic
environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining
these estimates could cause actual results to differ.
In addition, organization costs have been deferred and are being amortized
on a straight-line basis over a five year period, beginning at the commencement
of the Fund's operations in September 1994.
2. EXEMPT-INTEREST DIVIDENDS AND OTHER DISTRIBUTIONS
The Fund intends to satisfy conditions that will enable interest from
municipal securities, which is exempt from regular Federal income tax and from
designated state income taxes, to retain such tax-exempt status when distributed
to the shareholders of the Fund.

Barney Holdings Inc., acts as investment manager to the Fund. The Fund pays

Dividend Reinvestment Plan (unaudited)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pursuant to the Fund's Dividend Reinvestment Plan ("Plan"), all
distributions are automatically reinvested by First Data Investor Services
Group, Inc. as plan agent ("Plan Agent") in additional shares of the Fund's
Common Stock ("Common Shares") as provided below unless a shareholder elects to
receive cash.
Distributions with respect to Common Shares registered in the name of a
broker-dealer or other nominee (i.e., in "Street Name") are reinvested by the
broker or nominee in additional Common Shares under the Plan, unless the service
is not provided by the broker or nominee. Investors who own Common Shares
registered in Street Name should consult their broker-dealer for details. All
distributions to shareholders who do not participate in the Plan are paid by
check, mailed directly to the record holder by the Plan Agent.
If the Fund declares a distribution payable either in Common Shares or in
cash, nonparticipants in the Plan receive cash, and Plan participants receive
the equivalent in Common Shares valued in the following manner: whenever the
market price is equal to or exceeds the net asset value per share at the time
Common Shares are valued for the purpose of determining the number of Common
Shares equivalent to the cash distribution, participants are issued Common
Shares valued at the greater of (1) the net asset value most recently determined
or (2) 95% of the then current market price of the Common Shares.
If the net asset value of the Common Shares at the time of valuation
exceeds the market price of the Common Shares, or if the Fund declares a
distribution payable only in cash, the Plan Agent buys Common Shares in the open
market, on the American Stock Exchange or elsewhere, for the participants'
accounts. The Plan Agent applies all cash received as a distribution to purchase
Common Shares on the open market as soon as practicable after the record date of
the distribution, but in no event later than 30 days after such date, except
when necessary to comply with applicable provisions of the Federal securities
laws. If following the commencement of purchases and before the Plan Agent has
completed its purchases the market price exceeds the net asset value of the
Common Shares, the Plan Agent is permitted to cease purchasing shares on the
open market and the Fund may issue the remaining shares at a price equal to the
greater of (a) net asset value or (b) 95% of the then current market price. In a
case where the Plan Agent has terminated open market purchases and the Fund has
issued the remaining shares, the number of shares received by the participant in
respect of the cash dividend or distribution will be based on the weighted
average of prices paid for shares purchased in the open market and the price at
which the Fund issue the remaining shares.

Dividend Reinvestment Plan (unaudited) (continued)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Participants in the Plan may withdraw from the Plan upon written notice to
the Plan Agent which must be received at least ten business days prior to the
distribution record date to become effective for that distribution. Shares in
the account of each Plan participant are held by the Plan Agent in
non-certificated form in the name of the Plan Agent or participant. When a
participant withdraws from the Plan or upon termination of the Plan as provided
below, certificates for whole Fund shares credited to his or her account under
the Plan are issued and a cash payment is made for any fraction of a Fund share
credited to such account.
The automatic reinvestment of distributions does not relieve participants
of any Federal income tax that may be payable on such distributions.
The Fund does not charge participants for reinvesting distributions. Any
Plan Agent's fees for the handling of reinvestment of distributions under the
Plan are paid by the Fund. There are no brokerage charges with respect to Common
Shares issued directly by the Fund as a result of distributions payable either
in stock or in cash. However, each participant pays a pro-rata share of
brokerage commissions incurred with respect to the Plan Agent's open market
purchases in connection with the reinvestment of distributions.
Experience under the Plan may indicate that changes are desirable.
Accordingly, the Fund and the Plan Agent reserve the right to amend the Plan as
applied to any distribution paid subsequent to written notice of the change sent
to all shareholders of the Fund at least 90 days before the record date for the
distribution. The Plan also may be terminated by the Fund or the Plan Agent by
at least 30 days' written notice to all shareholders of the Fund. All
correspondence concerning the Plan should be directed to the Plan Agent at First
Data Investor Services Group, Inc., P.O. Box 1376, Boston, Massachusetts 02104.
