Item 5.  Other Events

Valuation per Unit of Limited Partnership Interest
     
     The Managing General Partner of the Partnership has estimated the
value per Unit of limited partnership interest at December 31, 1996 to be
$245.  This value was based on appraisals of the Partnership's real estate
properties by Cushman & Wakefield, an independent appraisal firm, with
adjustments by the Managing General Partner for other Partnership assets and
liabilities.  The values of the properties do not necessarily reflect the
amounts which could be obtained upon an immediate liquidation of the
properties.  The value per Unit does not represent the market price for the
Units.  In the limited market for resale of Partnership Units, a seller
would most likely receive a discount to the $245 value upon sale of the
Unit.
