1.  General

     The accompanying financial statements, footnotes and discussions should be
   read in conjunction with the financial statements and footnotes contained in
   the Partnership's Annual Report for the year ended March 31, 1995.

     In the opinion of management, the accompanying financial statements, which
   have not been audited, reflect all adjustments necessary to present fairly
   the results for the interim period.  All of the accounting adjustments
   reflected in the accompanying interim financial statements are of a normal
   recurring nature.

2. Investments in Joint Venture Partnerships

     The Partnership has investments in two joint venture partnerships at
   September 30, 1995 (three at September 30, 1994) which own operating
   properties as more fully described in the Partnership's Annual Report.  The
   joint ventures are accounted for by using the equity method.  Under the
   equity method, the investments are carried at cost adjusted for the
   Partnership's share of the ventures' earnings and losses and distributions.
   For income tax reporting purposes, these joint ventures are required to
   maintain their accounting records on a calendar year basis.  As a result,
   the joint ventures are accounted for based on financial information which is
   three months in arrears to that of the Partnership.  As of March 31, 1995,
   the Partnership's investment in Hudson Partners was recorded as held for
   sale and was separately classified on the accompanying balance sheet at its
   estimated fair value.  On September 12, 1995, the Partnership sold its joint
   venture interest in the Hudson Apartments for $350,000 to its co-venture
   partner.

     Summarized operating results of the joint ventures, for the periods
   indicated, are as follows:

3. Related Party Transactions

     Included in general and administrative expenses for six months ended
   September 30, 1995 and 1994 is $35,000 and $34,000, respectively, 
   representing  reimbursements to an affiliate of the Managing General
   Partner for providing certain financial, accounting and investor 
   communication services to the Partnership.

     Also included in general and administrative expenses for the six months
   ended September 30, 1995 and 1994 is $2,000 and $1,000, respectively,
   representing fees earned by Mitchell Hutchins Institutional Investors, Inc.
   for managing the Partnership's cash assets.

   As a result of the commencement of regular quarterly distributions effective
   for the second quarter of fiscal 1995 the Adviser began earning a management
   fee equal to approximately 10% of the Distributable Cash of the Partnership,
   as defined, pursuant to the advisory agreement.  The Adviser earned
   management fees totalling $34,000 for the six month period ended
   September 30, 1995.

4. Contingencies

     The Partnership is involved in certain legal actions.  The Managing General
  Partner believes these actions will be resolved without material adverse
  effect on the Partnership's financial statements, taken as a whole.

                     PAINE WEBBER GROWTH PROPERTIES TWO LP

                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     As discussed in the Annual Report, during the first quarter of fiscal 1996
the Partnership agreed to the sale of its interest in the Hudson Apartments. On
September 12, 1995, the Partnership completed the sale of its joint venture
interest in the Hudson Apartments, located in Tyler, TX, for $350,000 to its co-
venture partner.  While such proceeds are substantially less than the amount of
the Partnership's original investment, of $2,600,000, management believes that
the offer is reflective of the current fair market value of the Partnership's
interest.  In the mid-to-late 1980s, the Hudson joint venture was unable to meet
its contractual debt service requirements.  As a result, the venture entered
into several debt modifications aimed at alleviating the need for the
Partnership to fund cash flow deficits.  In October 1990, in order to take
advantage of a discounted debt pay-off offer from the existing mortgage lender
and to avoid possibly losing the property through foreclosure proceedings, the
venture admitted a new partner who contributed the $600,000 necessary to
complete the proposed refinancing transaction.  Although this recapitalization
saved the property from likely foreclosure, it resulted in a 50% dilution of the
Partnership's interest and created a 15% preferred return on the new partner's
$600,000 investment.  Based on current market factors, management did not
foresee significant appreciation in the value of the Partnership's interest in
the Hudson joint venture in the near-term.  Furthermore, since the venture's new
mortgage financing was expected to have a five-year  prohibition on prepayment,
and thereafter any sale of the property would require the consent of the co-
venturer, management believed that it was an opportune time to sell the
Partnership's investment.  The Partnership will make a special distribution
to the Limited Partners of $23 per original $1,000 Unit, or approximately
$768,000, on November 15, 1995, which represents the Hudson sale proceeds
plus an amount of cash reserves that is in excess of expected future 
requirements.

     The current operations of the Partnership's two remaining investment
properties, the Portland Center and Walker House apartment complexes, reflect
the generally improving conditions in the real estate markets for multi-family
residential properties across the country, as previously reported.  Excess cash
flow distributions from the investment properties totalled $682,000 and $558,000
for the six months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively.  Management
expects to see continued improvement in the multi-family sector of the real
estate market in the near-term.  The implementation of capital improvements at
Portland Center, which are discussed further below, has allowed management to
increase rents and add value to the property.  Accordingly, management will
likely not consider the sale of the Portland Center property in the near term,
at least until the capital improvement program is substantially completed and
the effects of the improvements are fully reflected in the asking rents for the
apartment units.  Conversely, management believes that it may be an opportune
time to consider the sale of the Walker House Apartments.  The strong
performance of the Walker House investment property as well as the current
demand for apartments by institutional and local buyers may provide a sales
price which would maximize the investment returns to the Limited Partners.
Management began actively marketing the property for sale in September and
subsequent to the quarter-end has received several preliminary offers.
Management intends to engage in negotiations with prospective buyers and will
continue to market the property for sale during the third quarter to attempt to
achieve the highest possible price.  However, there can be no assurances that
any offers will be received at a price that management will consider acceptable
or that a sale transaction will be consummated during fiscal 1996.  A sale of
the Walker House Apartments, if completed, could position the Partnership for a
possible liquidation within the next 2 to 3 years.  Management's hold/sell
decisions will be based on an assessment of the impact on the overall returns to
the Limited Partners.

     As discussed further in the Annual Report, management is currently in the
process of using the excess cash reserves from the December 1993 Portland Center
HUD loan refinancing to complete a major renovation program at the Portland
Center property, which includes upgrades to the common areas and many individual
units.  The property's individual apartment units are being upgraded on a
turnover basis.  As part of an effort to accelerate the pace of the unit
upgrades, management implemented a program of rental rate increases aimed at
increasing tenant turnover.  Management expects to be able to lease the
renovated units at substantial rate increases.  Approximately 30% of the
property's total units have been upgraded to date and rental rate increases
averaging greater than 10% have been achieved on these units.  The capital
improvement program will continue throughout calendar year 1995.  The joint
venture anticipates spending approximately $594,000 during calendar 1995 on
capital improvements, of which approximately $246,000 is expected to be
reimbursed from HUD replacement reserves.  The remainder will be funded from
operating cash flow of the Portland Center property.  During fiscal 1995,
management learned that the City of Portland is proposing the
development of a light rail system that may result in a rail line extension
along the street in front of the Portland Center Apartments.  As a result, the
Partnership, through the on-site management team, has organized a coalition of
interested property owners to attempt to secure a line extension decision and to
suggest design alternatives that would have the most beneficial impact to
Portland Center and the surrounding area.

     Consistent cash flow from operations is expected to be generated by the
Portland Center joint venture beginning in fiscal 1997 as the capital
improvement program nears completion.  Because of the continued improvement in
cash flow at the Partnership's remaining properties, and the expectation 
that it will continue in the future, the Partnership instituted the payment
of quarterly cash distributions during fiscal 1995.  The first payment was 
made on November 15, 1994 for the quarter ended September 30, 1994.  The 
initial payment to the Limited Partners was based upon a 3% annual return on
remaining invested capital.  The annualized distribution rate has been 
increased over the past twelve months and reached 4% for the quarter ended 
September 30, 1995.  Management expects to maintain the distribution rate 
at 4% on remaining invested capital, of $532 per original $1,000 Unit, for 
the remainder of fiscal 1996, unless actual results of operations, economic
conditions or other factors differ substantially from the assumptions used 
in projecting the planned distribution rate.

    At September 30, 1995, the Partnership had available cash and cash
equivalents of approximately $1,590,000.  Such cash and cash equivalents, along
with the expected operating cash flow from the Partnership's joint venture
investments, will be utilized for the working capital needs of the Partnership
and for distributions to the partners.  The source of future liquidity and
distributions to the partners is expected to be through proceeds received from
the sale or refinancing of the investment properties.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three Months Ended September 30, 1995

     For the three months ended September 30, 1995, the Partnership reported a
net loss of $38,000 as compared to net income of $44,000 for the same period in
the prior year.  The adverse change in net operating results for the second
quarter of fiscal 1996 was caused by an increase in the Partnership's share of
ventures' losses along with increases in management fees and general and
administrative expenses.  The change in the Partnership's share of ventures'
operations was mainly due to an increase in the net losses recognized by the
Portland Center joint venture.  The venture's net losses increased as a result
of increases in operating expenses and depreciation expense related to the
ongoing capital improvement program discussed further above.  Operating expenses
increased due to a significant increase in advertising and other media expense
which have resulted from efforts to re-lease the renovated units.  The increase
in expenses at Portland Center was partially offset by increased rental revenues
at both Portland Center and Walker House for the three months ended September
30, 1995.  Partnership management fees of $18,000 were earned by the Adviser in
the current quarter as a result of the reinstatement of quarterly distributions
during the second half of fiscal 1995.

Six Months Ended September 30, 1995

    For the six months ended September 30, 1995, the Partnership reported a net
loss of $113,000 as compared to a net loss of $85,000 for the same period in the
prior year.  The increase in net loss is the result of increases in the
Partnership's share of ventures' losses and management fees, which were
partially offset by an increase in revenues and a slight decrease in general and
administrative expenses.  The Partnership's share of losses from its two
remaining investment properties increased $48,000 for the current six-month
period mainly as a result of increased operating expenses and depreciation
expense at Portland Center related to the ongoing capital improvement program
discussed further above.  Partnership management fees of $34,000 were earned by
the Adviser in the current six-month period as a result of the reinstatement of
quarterly distributions during the second half of fiscal 1995.
