                    This Amendment No. 2 amends and supplements the
          Schedule 13D, dated May 30, 1996, as amended by Amendment
          No. 1, dated June 26, 1996 (the "Schedule 13D"), filed on
          behalf on North Fork Bancorporation, Inc., a Delaware
          corporation ("North Fork").  Capitalized terms used
          herein without definition have the meanings ascribed to
          them in the Schedule 13D.

                    Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended to
          include the following:

          Item 4.   Purpose of Transaction.      

                    Despite repeated efforts by North Fork to enter
          into discussions with Haven Bancorp, Inc. (the
          "Company") with respect to a possible business
          combination between the two entities and despite North
          Fork's continued belief that such a business combination
          could provide enhanced value to North Fork and the
          Company and their respective stockholders, the Company
          has refused to meet with representatives of North Fork to
          explore the parameters of such a combination and the
          potential value it could bring.  Based on this
          unwillingness to meet on the part of the Company, North
          Fork has determined that the Common Stock no longer
          represents an attractive investment to it and has
          therefore decided to sell shares of the Common Stock.  As
          more fully described in Item 5 below, on July 30, 1996
          and July 31, 1996, North Fork sold in open market
          transactions 180,000 shares of the Common Stock. 

                    In connection with such sales, North Fork will
          withdraw the notice it previously filed with the Federal
          Reserve under Section 4(c)(8) of the Bank Holding Company
          Act of 1956, and the relevant portions of Regulation Y
          promulgated thereunder, of its intention to acquire up to
          9.9% of the outstanding voting shares of the Company, and
          to thereby indirectly acquire an interest in the
          Company's wholly owned subsidiary savings bank, Columbia
          Federal Savings Bank and its wholly owned subsidiaries. 
          Further, in connection with such withdrawal, North Fork
          will not be bound by the commitments previously described
          in Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D.

                    Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended to
          include the following:

          Item 5.   Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

                   (a)-(b) By reason of its recent sales of Common
          Stock, North Fork has sole voting and dispositive power
          with respect to 34,000 shares, or less than 1%, of the
          issued and outstanding shares, of Common Stock.  To the
          best of North Fork's knowledge, any of the individuals
          named in Schedule I hereto, owns any Common Stock.  

                  (c)  The following sales of Common Stock were
          effected by North Fork during the past 60 days:

                    Trade          Number of      Price Per
                    Date             Shares         Share

                  7/30/96           150,000       $28.6875    
                  7/31/96            30,000       $28.75

                    The foregoing sales were accomplished through
          brokerage transactions effected through The Nasdaq
          National Market.  Except as set forth above, neither
          North Fork nor, to the best of North Fork's knowledge,
          any of the individuals named in Schedule I hereto, has
          effected any transaction in the Common Stock during the
          past 60 days.

                    (d)  Inapplicable.

                    (e)  By virtue of the sales of Common Stock
          described above, North Fork ceased to be the owner of 5%
          of the Common Stock on July 30, 1996.

                                   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.
