                                       PART I

ITEM 1.  DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Drexel Burnham Lambert Real Estate Associates II (the "Partnership" or
"Registrant") is a limited partnership which was formed on November 2, 1983,
pursuant to the Partnership Law of the State of New York.  The Partnership is
engaged in the business of acquiring, operating and holding real properties for
investment.  The Partnership acquired five properties during 1984 and 1985 and
has been operating them since that time with the exception of the Sheraton Inn
(a two-thirds interest in a joint venture), Table Mesa (one-half interest in a
joint venture) and the 123 Office Building (a 22.47% interest), which was sold
on March 14, 1994, in a foreclosure proceeding.  SP Associates ("SPA"), a joint
venture between the Partnership and Coreal N.V., Inc. acquired the Sheraton Inn
on May 7, 1985.  In October 1992, SPA admitted a new investment group into the
Joint Venture.  The new investment group has the exclusive authority to manage
the operations and affairs and to make all decisions regarding the business.
SPA has entered into an agreement to sell the Hotel for $6,300,000 to CapStar
Management Company, L.P. ("CapStar"), the Hotel's management company.  The
closing date shall be no later than March 20, 1997.  A $750,000 nonrefundable
deposit is required, as is payment of interest on the sales price at the prime
rate.  In addition, CapStar shall be entitled to collect and retain all accrued
receivables and shall assume all outstanding payables, as defined, with respect
to the Hotel as of December 31, 1996.  It is expected that the proceeds from the
sale of the Hotel will be used first to satisfy the $3,963,777 mortgage payable
on the Hotel and that the balance will be paid to Almanzil in accordance with
the terms of the joint venture agreement.  As the result of the sale, the
Partnership will be relieved of its share of the recourse liabilities of SPA.
Therefore, the Partnership is expected to recognize an extraordinary gain of
approximately $812,291 in its 1997 statement of operations.

Commencing in February 1984 pursuant to the Prospectus, the Partnership offered
$20,000,000 in Limited Partnership Interests (the "Interests").  A total of
37,273 Interests were sold to the public at $500 per Interest.  The offering
closed on October 10, 1984.  No Limited Partner has made any additional capital
contribution after that date.  The Limited Partners of the Partnership share in
the benefits of ownership of the Partnership's real property investments
according to the number of Interests held.

The Interests were registered under the Securities Act of 1933 via Registration
Statement No. 2-85829 (the "Registration Statement").  Reference is made to the
Prospectus of registrant dated December 30, 1983 (the "Prospectus") contained in
said Registration Statement, which is incorporated herein by reference thereto.

A further description of the Partnership's business is included in Management's
Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation included in "Item 6" of this Form
10-KSB.

The business in which the Partnership is engaged is highly competitive and the
Partnership is not a significant factor in its industry.  The Partnership's
remaining investments in real property are subject to competition from similar
properties in the vicinity in which they are located.

The terms of agreements between the Partnership and affiliates of the General
Partner of the Partnership are set forth in "Item 12" below to which reference
is hereby made for a description of such terms.

All of the outstanding stock of the General Partner is owned by Wynnewood
Company, Inc. ("Wynnewood"), a corporation which is owned by the principal
operating officer of the General Partner.

The Partnership had no employees as of December 31, 1996.  Management and
administrative services are performed by Wynnewood, the General Partner, and by
IFGP Corporation ("Insignia") and affiliates.  Pursuant to a management
agreement between them, Insignia affiliates provide property management
services, partnership administration, and registrar and transfer services to the
Partnership.

As noted under "Item 1. Description of Business", the real estate industry is
highly competitive.  All of the properties of the Partnership are subject to
competition from other residential apartment complexes, retail space and
commercial buildings in the areas in which they operate.  Management believes
that all of the properties are adequately insured. The multi-family residential
property's lease terms are for one year or less.  No residential or commercial
tenant leases 10% or more of the available rental space.

The following is a schedule of the lease expirations by property for the years
1997-2005:

                    Number of                                 % of Gross

In addition, one tenant, who rents their space on a month-by-month basis,
occupied 3,510 square feet and contributed annual lease payments of $11,992 or
approximately 2.65% of gross annual rent for 1996.

Schedule of Real Estate Taxes:

ITEM 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Partnership is not a party to, nor are any of its properties subject to, any
material pending legal proceedings.


ITEM 4.  SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

There were no matters submitted to a vote of security holders during the fourth
quarter of 1996.


                                      PART II


ITEM 5.    MARKET FOR THE PARTNERSHIP EQUITY AND RELATED PARTNER MATTERS

As of December 31, 1996, the Partnership included approximately 1,718 limited
partners, holding a total of 37,273 Interests, and one General Partner.  No
public trading market has developed for the Interests and it is not anticipated
that such a market will develop in the future.

Cash distributions were made quarterly from April 1985 until October 1987 and
then were suspended until the December 1989 distribution of $5.00 per Interest.
In December 1995 the General Partner approved a cash distribution to the Limited
Partners in the amount of $279,548 ($7.50 per Interest) which was paid in
February 1996.  A cash distribution of $279,548 was also declared in December
1996 to be paid in March 1997.  As of December 31, 1996, the remaining unpaid
preferred return arrearage totaled $13,119,480 or $351.98 per interest.
Reference is made to "Item 6" for a description of liquidity and capital
resources.


ITEM 6.    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

Results of Operations

For the year ended December 31, 1996, the Partnership realized a net loss of
$89,038 compared to a net loss of $289,039 for the corresponding period of 1995.
The decrease in net loss is primarily attributable to a decrease in equity loss
recognized on the SPA joint venture.  The Partnership has limited the equity in
the loss of SPA joint venture to the Partnership's share of recourse
liabilities.  The Partnership reached its limit in the loss of the SPA joint
venture with the recognition of a $96,983 loss in 1995.  No similar loss has
been recognized in 1996 (see "Note 3" of the Notes to Financial Statements).  In
addition, the decrease in net loss was impacted by an increase in rental
revenues and a decrease in depreciation expense.  Rental revenue increased due
to Presidential House raising rental rates in 1996.  Depreciation expense
decreased as a result of a depreciation rate change under ACRS from 5% to 4%.

Effective in 1996, the Partnership accounts for its 50% investment in Table Mesa
using the equity method.  The Partnership had previously accounted for its 50%
share in the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses on a pro-rata basis.
The 1995 statements of operations and cash flows have been restated to present
the Partnership's 50% investment in Table Mesa using the equity method.  There
was no change in the Partnership's net loss and Partner's equity for the year
ended 1995; however, the balance of cash and cash equivalents at December 31,
1995, was reduced by $83,082 and cash paid for interest for the year ended 1995
was reduced by $390,970 as the result of this restatement.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At December 31, 1996, the Partnership had cash on hand (including shares of
money market funds) of $674,942.  The present cash reserves of the Partnership
are believed to be adequate for the foreseeable needs of the Partnership.

Occupancy remains favorable at all of the Partnership's properties other than
normal tenant rollover.  The Table Mesa shopping center and Presidential
Apartments have occupancy levels approximating 95% while Wendover Business Park
Phase II is 91% occupied.  The Table Mesa Joint Venture is discussing the
refinancing or extension of the existing first mortgage which matures in early
1998.  The Hotel owned by SP Associates in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, is currently
under contract of sale.  At the projected sales proceeds, it is not expected
that the Partnership will receive any of the proceeds.

Other than normal leasing and capital improvement programs the partnership has
not entered into any material commitments for capital expenditures at any of its
properties as of December 31, 1996.  In March of 1997, the Partnership paid a
distribution to it limited partners of $7.50 per unit or a total of $279,548.

Inflation

Inflation in the future may increase rental revenues as well as operating
expenses, all subject to general market trends.  Certain Table Mesa and Wendover
II leases provide for rent increases based upon the Consumer Price Index.

To the Partners
Drexel Burnham Lambert Real Estate Associates II

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Drexel Burnham Lambert Real
Estate Associates II (a limited partnership) as of December 31, 1996, and the
related statements of operations, partners' equity and cash flows for each of
the two years in the period ended December 31, 1996.  These financial statements
are the responsibility of the Partnership's management.  Our responsibility is
to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining,  on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Drexel Burnham Lambert Real
Estate Associates II (a limited partnership) at December 31, 1996, and the
results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the
period ended December 31, 1996, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

As described in note 2, the Partnership restated its 1995 financial statements
to reflect its investment in a joint venture on the equity method.

Note 1 - Organization

Drexel Burnham Lambert Real Estate Associates II ("Partnership") was organized
as a limited partnership under the laws of the State of New York pursuant to a
Certificate of Limited Partnership dated November 2, 1983.  The general partner
of the Partnership, DBL Properties Corporation ("General Partner"), is owned by
The Wynnewood Company, Inc. ("Wynnewood").

The Partnership owns and operates Wendover Business Park - Phase II ("Wendover")
an office and warehouse complex located in Greensboro, North Carolina and
Presidential House at Sky Lake ("Presidential") a residential apartment complex
located in North Miami Beach, Florida.  The Partnership also owns joint venture
interests in Table Mesa Shopping Center ("Table Mesa") located in Boulder,
Colorado and SP Associates ("SPA"), which owns a hotel in Cherry Hill, New
Jersey (see "Note 3").

Note 2 - Significant accounting policies

Basis of accounting

The financial statements include the accounts of the Partnership and its
operating divisions, Wendover and Presidential.

The Partnership accounts for its joint venture investments in Table Mesa and SPA
under the equity method of accounting (see "Note 3").

Restatement

Effective in 1996, the Partnership accounts for its 50% investment in Table Mesa
on the equity method.  The Partnership had previously accounted for its 50%
share in the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses on a pro rata basis.
The 1995 statements of operations and cash flows have been restated to present
the Partnership's 50% investment in Table Mesa on the equity method.  There was
no change in the Partnership's net (loss) and Partners' equity for the year
ended 1995; however, the balance of cash and cash equivalents at December 31,
1995, was reduced by $83,082 and cash paid for interest for the year ended 1995
was reduced by $390,970 as the result of this restatement.

Estimates

The financial statements of the Partnership are prepared in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles which require management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period.  The most significant areas which require the use
of management's estimates relate to the service lives and recoverability of
costs of real property and the Partnership's accountability to SPA (see "Note
3").  Actual results could differ from those estimates.


Long-lived assets

Management evaluates the Partnership's long-lived assets, which consist
primarily of its investments in real property, for impairment based on the
recoverability of their carrying amounts.  When it is probable that undiscounted
cash flows will not be sufficient to recover the carrying amount of a specific
property, the assets will be written-down to its fair value.  No such write-down
was required in 1996 and 1995.

Disclosure about fair value of financial instruments

The Company's cash and cash equivalents, and long-term debt represent financial
instruments as defined by "Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107,
Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments".  The carrying value of
these financial instruments is a reasonable approximation of fair value.

Depreciation and amortization

Depreciation of real and personal property is being computed on straight-line
and accelerated methods over estimated service lives ranging from 3 to 31-1/2
years.

Deferred charges are presented net of accumulated amortization of $137,542 and
are being amortized as follows:

Leasing           - computed on a straight-line basis over the
commissions         term of the respective leases.

Loan costs        - computed on a straight-line basis over the
                    term of the respective mortgages payable.


Revenue recognition

The straight-line basis is used to recognize minimum rental income under leases
which provide for varying rents over their terms.

Income taxes

No provision has been made for income taxes since such taxes, if any, are
payable by the partners individually.

Cash and cash equivalents

For purposes of financial reporting, cash and cash equivalents include cash on
hand and in banks, including money market funds, and certificates of deposit
with original maturities of three months or less.

Supplemental disclosure of non-cash financing activities

In December 1996, the Partnership approved a cash distribution to limited
partners in the amount of $279,548 ($7.50 per interest) to be paid in March
1997.  A similar distribution was declared in December 1995 and paid in February
1996.

Concentration of credit risk

A substantial portion of the Partnership's cash is on deposit with one bank and
consists of demand deposits and money market accounts.  The Partnership has not
experienced any losses on its cash deposits.

Note 3 - Investment in joint ventures

SP Associates (SPA)

SPA was formed in 1984 as a joint venture to acquire the Sheraton Poste Inn
("Hotel"), a 220-room hotel located in Cherry Hill, New Jersey.  The managing
partner of the SPA joint venture is Almanzil, Inc. ("Almanzil"), with a 50%
interest.  The remaining interests are owned by the Partnership and Coreal N.V.,
Inc. ("Coreal"), owning 33.3% and 16.7%, respectively.  Coreal is an affiliate
of Almanzil.

Under the terms of SPA's joint venture agreement, cash from operations and
capital transactions, as defined, are allocated 50% to Almanzil, 33.3% to the
Partnership and 16.7% to Coreal, after Almanzil receives an amount equal to an
annual 20% preferred cumulative return on its outstanding capital and a return
of its original investment of $1,953,970.  Losses from operations of SPA are
allocated 66.7% to the Partnership and 33.3% to Coreal.  At December 31, 1996,
the Partnership's accountability to the SPA joint venture, representing
management's estimate of the Partnership's share of recourse liabilities of SPA,
amounted to $812,291.  Losses of SPA have been limited to the Partnership's
share of recourse liabilities of SPA and for the years ended 1996 and 1995
amounted to $-0- and $96,983, respectively.  The Partnership's share of
unrecognized losses for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, totaled
$182,000 and $608,000, respectively.

SPA has entered into an agreement to sell the Hotel for $6,300,000 to CapStar
Management Company, L.P. ("CapStar"), the Hotel's management company.  The
closing date shall be no later than March 20, 1997.  A $750,000 nonrefundable
deposit is required, as is payment of interest on the sales price at the prime
rate.  In addition, CapStar shall be entitled to collect and retain all accrued
receivables and shall assume all outstanding payables, as defined, with respect
to the Hotel as of December 31, 1996.

It is expected that the proceeds from the sale of the Hotel will be used first
to satisfy the $3,963,777 mortgage payable on the Hotel and that the balance
will be paid to Almanzil in accordance with the terms of the joint venture
agreement.  As the result of the sale, the Partnership will be relieved of its
share of the recourse liabilities of SPA.  Therefore, the Partnership is
expected to recognize an extraordinary gain of $812,291 in its 1997 statement of
operations.

Table Mesa

Table Mesa Shopping Center Partnership was formed in 1985, as a joint venture to
own and operate a shopping center in Boulder, Colorado.  The Partnership owns a
50% interest in this joint venture.  The Partnership's equity in the operations
of Table Mesa, after an adjustment for allocation of depreciation based on its
basis in the property, amounted to losses of $69,899 in 1996 and $79,911 in
1995.

The Table Mesa joint venture agreement provides among other things, that the
Partnership shall be entitled to receive a cash flow preference, as defined, of
$252,000 per year, which is equivalent to a 9% return on the Partnership's
initial cash investment.  This annual preference is not cumulative.

Summarized financial information for Table Mesa at December 31, 1996, is as
follows:

                    Assets             $ 6,981,946
                    Liabilities          7,390,407
                    Revenue              2,161,823
                    Net income              44,071

Note 4 - Mortgage indebtedness

At December 31, 1996, mortgage indebtedness consisted of:

Wendover -  The mortgage payable matures on February 1, 2001,
 and requires monthly payments of $11,083 to be applied first
 to interest at the rate of 7.75% per annum and the balance
 to reduction of principal.                                    $ 1,260,436
Presidential - The mortgage payable matures August 1, 2000,
 and requires monthly payments of $31,367 to be applied first
 to interest at the rate of 8% per annum and the balance to
 reduction of principal.                                         3,459,235

            Total mortgages payable                            $ 4,719,671

In addition, escrow deposits are required to be made with both mortgagees for
real estate taxes and insurance.

The following is a schedule of future mortgage amortization payments as of
December 31, 1996:

                   1997               $   139,994
                   1998                   151,514
                   1999                   163,984
                   2000                 3,168,705
                   2001                 1,095,474
                          Total       $ 4,719,671


Note 5 - Partners' equity

Pursuant to a public offering, 37,273 units were sold at $500 per interest. The
calculation of net (loss) per limited partner interest is based on 37,273
interests outstanding.

For income tax purposes the limited partners share 99% and the general partner
1% (subordinated as defined in the partnership agreement) in all profits or
losses from operations until the limited partners have received an 8% cumulative
preferred return on their invested capital.  Thereafter, the limited partners
share 90% and the general partner shares 10% in the profits or losses from
operations.

Cash distributions from sales or refinancing, if any, shall be made to the
partners to the extent available and, as more fully described in the partnership
agreement, as follows: first, to each partner in an amount equivalent to the
positive amount of such partner's capital account on the date of distribution
after adjustment; second, to the limited partners, until the limited partners
have received an amount equal to their original invested capital; third, 99% to
the limited partners equal to any unpaid preferred return arrearage; and fourth,
as to any excess, 85% to the limited partners and 15% to the general partner.

Distributions in liquidation to the partners shall be made pro rata in
accordance with the partners' capital accounts.

In accordance with the Agreement of Limited Partnership, limited partners are
entitled to receive an 8% cumulative preferred return on their unrecovered
invested capital.  No distributions have been made or accrued to the general
partner, since the limited partners must receive their original invested capital
plus any preferred return arrearage before payment to the general partner.  As
of December 31, 1996, the unpaid preferred return arrearage totaled $13,119,480.

Note 6 - Operating leases

The Partnership leases office, warehouse and retail space to tenants of Wendover
under operating lease agreements which expire on various dates through 1999.
Future minimum rental income, excluding escalation charges, under these leases
as of December 31, 1996, are as follows:


              1997              $   360,414
              1998                  235,802
              1999                   75,504
                   Total        $   671,720


Note 7 - Management and other fees

The Partnership has entered into an agreement with IFGP Corporation
("Insignia"), which provides for Insignia to perform certain management and
administrative duties for the Partnership.  Fees paid to Insignia for these
services amounted to $46,939 for both 1996 and 1995.
