    (1)  Based upon 187,107,584 Paired Shares (as defined herein)
         outstanding as of February 28, 1998. Such information is
         based upon publicly available information.



      This Amendment No. 1 (this "Amendment") amends the Schedule 13D
originally filed with the Commission on January 10, 1997 by Ziff Investment
Partners, L.P. II and Ziff Investment Management, L.L.C. Capitalized terms
not defined in this Amendment have the meanings ascribed to them in the
original Schedule 13D. This is a final amendment.

ITEM 1.  SECURITY AND ISSUER.

      This Statement on Schedule 13D relates to shares of Beneficial
Interest, par value $.01 per share (the "Trust Shares"), of Starwood Hotels
& Resorts (formerly Starwood Lodging Trust) (the "Trust") and shares of
Common Stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Corporation Shares"), of
Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc. (formerly Starwood Lodging
Corporation) (the "Corporation" and together and with the Trust, the
"Companies"). Pursuant to a pairing agreement between the Trust and the
Corporation, the Trust Shares and the Corporation Shares are "paired" and
may only be held and transferred in units consisting of one Trust Share and
one Corporation Share (collectively, a "Paired Share"). Accordingly, this
Statement on Schedule 13D is filed with respect to Paired Shares and
relates to both the Trust and the Corporation.

            On February 23, 1998 (the "Effective Time"), the Companies
completed the acquisition (the "Acquisition") of ITT Corporation, a Nevada
corporation ("ITT"), in accordance with an Amended and Restated Agreement
and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") , dated as of November 12,
1997, among the Companies, Chess Acquisition Corp., a Nevada corporation
and a subsidiary of the Corporation ("Merger Sub"), and ITT. Pursuant to
the terms of the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub was merged with and into ITT
(the "Merger"), whereupon the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub
ceased and ITT continued as the surviving corporation. As a result of the
Merger, ITT was owned jointly by the Trust and the Corporation.
Shareholders of ITT, other than the Trust, received newly issued Paired
Shares as consideration in the Merger. Solely by virtue of such increase in
the number of Paired Shares outstanding, the percentages of Paired Shares
owned by the Reporting Persons has decreased below 5% individually and in
the aggregate, as further set forth herein. Immediately after the Effective
Time of the Merger, the Corporation purchased all the common stock, no par
value, of ITT ("ITT Common Stock") owned by the Trust for a combination of
cash and notes. After such purchase, ITT became a wholly owned subsidiary
of the Corporation.

      The name and address of the principal executive offices of the
Trust are as follows: Starwood Hotels & Resorts, 2231 East Camelback
Road, Suite 410, Phoenix, AZ 85016.  The name and address of the
principal executive offices of the Corporation are as follows:  Starwood
Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc., 2231 East Camelback Road, Suite
410, Phoenix, AZ  85016.

</TABLE>


      Of the Paired Shares listed above, 2,259,732 Paired Shares are deemed
to be owned by virtue of the ownership of Units which are exchangeable into
Paired Shares, as described in Item 3. The percentage of the outstanding
Paired Shares and the Voting Power disclosure above assumes the exchange of
all 2,259,732 Units owned by the Partnership (and no exchange of Units by
any other person) into Paired Shares.

      The Partnership's beneficial ownership included (i) 2,259,732 Paired
Shares issuable upon exchange of the 2,259,732 Units distributed to the
Partnership in the Distribution effective as of December 31, 1996 and (ii)
25,087 Paired Shares which are part of a restricted stock award (the
"Restricted Stock Award") of 167,247 Paired Shares granted to Starwood
Capital Group, L.L.C. ("Starwood Capital") on August 12, 1996, in
connection with the Trust's acquisition of eight hotels from an
institutional investor. The number of Paired Shares subject to the
Restricted Stock Award was increased 50% to 250,870 pursuant to a 3 for 2
stock split on each of Trust Shares and the Corporation Shares that was
paid on January 27, 1997. Two-thirds of the Restricted Stock Award is
vested, and the remainder vests on December 30, 1998. S IV Holdings, L.L.C.
("S IV"), a Delaware limited liability company owned by the Partnership and
Ziff Investment Management, L.L.C., was granted a 10% interest in the
Restricted Stock Award by Starwood Capital. S IV has the right to vote the
25,087 Paired Shares subject to the Restricted Stock Award and to receive
any dividends on such Paired Shares. The Partnership's shared voting and
dispositive power results from its relationship with the General Partner.

      The General Partner's and Mr. Korsant's beneficial ownership includes
the Units and Paired Shares which are beneficially owned by the
Partnership. The General Partner's shared voting and dispositive power
results from its relationship with the Partnership and Mr. Korsant's shared
voting and dispositive power results from his relationship to the General
Partner.

      Other than the Transaction, the Reporting Persons have not been
involved in any transactions in the Paired Shares during the past 60 days.

      After giving effect to the transactions described herein, the
Reporting Persons ceased to be the beneficial owners of more than 5% of the
outstanding shares of Paired Shares as of February 23, 1998.

ITEM 6.     CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS, OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH
            RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

            Unchanged.

ITEM 7.     MATERIAL TO BE FILED AS EXHIBITS.
