ITEM 4. CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT

      (a) Dismissal of Accountant.

      On April 27, 2004, the Board of Directors of the managing partner of
      Metric Realty, the Managing General Partner of Metric Partners Growth
      Suite Investors, L.P. (the "Partnership") approved the dismissal of Ernst
      & Young LLP ("E&Y") as the principal accountant of the Partnership to
      audit the Partnership's financial statements, effective April 27, 2004.
      The managing partner of Metric Realty does not have an Audit Committee of
      the Board of Directors.

      The reports of E&Y on the financial statements of the Partnership for the
      past two fiscal years ended December 31, 2003, were modified as to
      uncertainties relating to litigation that raise substantial doubt about
      the Partnership's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's
      plans in regard to this litigation are described in Note 4 to the
      financial statements in the Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K. The
      financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the
      possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets
      or the amounts or classification of liabilities that may result from the
      outcomes of these uncertainties.

      In connection with the audits of the Partnership's financial statements
      for each of the two fiscal years ended December 31, 2003, there were no
      disagreements with E&Y on any matter of accounting principles or
      practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope and procedures
      which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of E&Y, would have caused it
      to make a reference to the matter in its report.

      The Partnership has requested E&Y to furnish the Partnership a letter
      addressed to the Commission stating whether it agrees with the above
      statements. A copy of that letter, dated April 27, 2004, is filed as
      Exhibit 16.1 to this Form 8-K.

      (b) Engagement of Accountant.

      On April 27, 2004, the Board of Directors of the managing partner of
      Metric Realty, the Managing General Partner of the Partnership, approved
      the engagement of Deloitte & Touche LLP ("D&T"), an independent
      accountant, as the new principal accountant to audit the Partnership's
      financial statements for 2004 in place of E&Y, effective April 27, 2004.
