         The Statement on Schedule 13D dated November 14, 1995, as
   amended by Amendment No. 1 dated November 24, 1995 (the "Schedule 13D")
   filed by Public Storage, Inc. ("PSI"), relating to the Shares of
   Beneficial Interest, $0.10 par value (the "Shares") of American
   Industrial Properties REIT Inc., a Texas real estate investment trust
   (the "Issuer"), is amended by this Amendment No. 2 as set forth below. 
   Defined terms that are not defined herein have the meanings assigned to
   those terms in the Schedule 13D.

   Item 3.   Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

         As of January 17, 1996, PSI owned a total of 649,800 Shares for
   which it paid an aggregate purchase price (including commissions) of
   approximately $1,154,000.  All funds used to purchase such Shares were
   obtained from PSI's working capital.

   Item 4.   Purpose of Transaction

         Representatives of PSI have had discussions with an owner of the
   Company's notes (the "Lender") concerning a possible purchase by PSI
   of the Company's notes.  As of the date hereof, the Lender has not
   indicated a willingness to sell the notes on terms acceptable to PSI
   and accordingly, PSI is giving serious consideration to disposing of
   all or a portion of its Shares.

   Item 5.   Interest in Securities of the Issuer

         As of January 17, 1996, PSI owned 649,800 Shares, which
   constitute approximately 7.2% of the total number of Shares
   outstanding on January 17, 1996 of 9,075,000.

         PSI has the sole power to vote and the sole power to dispose of
   the 649,800 Shares owned by it.

         During the period commencing November 25, 1995 (i.e., after the
   date of Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D) and ending January 17,
   1996, PSI purchased the number of Shares in the transactions, on
   the transaction dates and at the prices per Share (not including
   commissions) set forth below opposite its name.

                                           No. of        Type          Price
                          Transaction      Shares         of            per
   Reporting Person          Date          Bought      Transaction     Share

         To the best of PSI's knowledge, except as disclosed herein, PSI
   does not have any beneficial ownership of any Shares as of January 17,
   1996 and has not engaged in any transaction in any Shares during the
   period from November 25, 1995 through January 17, 1996.

         Except as disclosed herein, no other person is known to PSI
   to have the right to receive or the power to direct receipt of
   distributions from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the Units
   beneficially owned by PSI.


                                    SIGNATURE

         After reasonable inquiry and to the best of its knowledge and
   belief, the undersigned certifies that the information set forth in
   this statement is true, complete and correct.
