Item 1. Business
 
General
 
   Prudential-Bache/Watson & Taylor, Ltd.-2 (the ``Registrant''), a Texas
limited partnership, was formed on November 14, 1983 and will terminate on
December 31, 2050 unless terminated sooner under the provisions of the Amended
and Restated Certificate and Agreement of Limited Partnership (the ``Partnership
Agreement''). The Registrant was formed for the purpose of acquiring,
developing, owning and operating mini-storage and business center facilities
with the proceeds raised from the initial sale of units of limited partnership
interest (``Units''). The Registrant's fiscal year for book and tax purposes
ends on December 31.
 
   The Registrant operates eight improved properties, five of which are business
center facilities with mini-warehouses and three of which are solely
mini-warehouse facilities. For more information regarding the Registrant's
properties, see Item 2 Properties. For more information regarding the
Registrant's operations, see Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the Registrant's Annual Report
to Limited Partners for the year ended December 31, 1995 (``Registrant's Annual
Report'') which is filed as an exhibit hereto. The Registrant is engaged solely
in the business of real estate investment; therefore, presentation of industry
segment information is not applicable.
 
   On December 15, 1995, the Management Committee of the Registrant determined
to seek bids for all of the properties held by the Registrant. As of March 22,
1996, preliminary bids have been received for all properties. If bids for the
properties are deemed acceptable by the Registrant, the Registrant intends to
enter into agreements to sell the properties, subject to the approval of the
limited partners owning a majority of the Units as required by the Partnership
Agreement. If such sales are approved and consummated, the Registrant will
liquidate and distribute its net assets to its partners. There can, of course,
be no assurance that acceptable bids will be received or that any transactions
will be consummated.
 
General Partners
 
   The general partners of the Registrant are Prudential-Bache Properties, Inc.
(``PBP''), George S. Watson and A. Starke Taylor, Ill (collectively, the
``General Partners''). PBP is the Managing General Partner and is responsible
for the day-to-day operations of the Registrant and its investments. See Note E
of the financial statements in the Registrant's Annual Report which is filed as
an exhibit hereto.
 
Competition
 
   The General Partners and/or their affiliates have formed, and may continue to
form, various entities to engage in businesses which may be competitive with the
Registrant.
 
   The Registrant competes with national and regional real estate owners and
operators, some of whom have more experience and resources than the Registrant.
Such owners and operators may include insurance companies, mortgage banks,
pension funds, and other real estate investors, including foreign investors,
syndicated partnerships, and real estate investment trusts. The primary factors
affecting a particular property's ability to successfully compete against other
properties include the location of such property, the suitability of its design
to a prospective tenant's needs, the manner in which it is managed and marketed,
and rental rates. The extent to which the Registrant is affected by competition
will depend, in part, on existing market conditions. The property managers,
Public Storage Management, Inc. and Public Storage Commercial Properties Group,
Inc., manage other properties which compete with the Registrant's properties
within the same geographical area.
 
Employees
 
   The Registrant has no employees. Management and administrative services for
the Registrant are performed by the General Partners and their affiliates
pursuant to the Partnership Agreement. The General Partners and/or their
affiliates receive compensation and reimbursement of expenses in connection with
such activities as described in section 11.7 of the Partnership Agreement. See
Note E of the financial statements in the Registrant's Annual Report which is
filed as an exhibit hereto.

Item 5.Market for the Registrant's Units and Related Limited Partner Matters
 
   As of March 1, 1996, there were 3,625 holders of record owning 51,818 Units,
inclusive of 258, 130 and 130 equivalent limited partnership units held by PBP
and Messrs. Watson and Taylor, respectively. A significant secondary market for
the Units has not developed, and it is not expected that one will develop in the
future. There are also certain restrictions set forth in Section 17.3 of the
Partnership Agreement limiting the ability of a limited partner to transfer
Units. Consequently, holders of Units may not be able to liquidate their
investments in the event of an emergency or for any other reason.
 
   The following per Unit cash distributions were paid to limited partners on or
about 45 days after the end of the specified quarter.

</TABLE>
 
   Distributions for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994 were made from
current and previously undistributed cash generated by the operations of the
Registrant's properties. Limited partner distributions were approximately
$766,000 and $1,034,000 for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994,
respectively. The amount of limited partner distributions that represented a
return of capital on a generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) basis was
approximately $282,000 and $635,000 for the years ended 1995 and 1994,
respectively (return of capital on a GAAP basis is calculated as limited partner
distributions less net income allocated to limited partners). There are no
material restrictions upon the Registrant's present or future ability to make
distributions in accordance with the provisions of the Partnership Agreement.
The Registrant currently expects that recurring quarterly cash distributions

compensation to either individual General Partner or to directors and officers

directors of the Managing General Partner receive compensation from affiliates
of the Managing General Partner, not from the Registrant, for services performed

issued by the Registrant. However, the General Partners have contributed to the
Registrant and, based on such contribution, they received ``equivalent units''
entitling them to participate in the distributions to the limited partners and
in the Registrant's profits and losses in the same proportion that the General
Partners' capital contribution bears to the total capital contributions of the
limited partners. The Managing General Partner has retained its right to receive

partner cash distributions and allocation of Registrant's profits and losses

                         REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
 
To the Partners
Prudential-Bache/Watson & Taylor, Ltd.-2
 
We have audited the accompanying statements of financial condition of
Prudential-Bache/Watson & Taylor, Ltd.-2 as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and
the related statements of operations, changes in partners' capital, and cash
flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995. 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 condition of Prudential-Bache/Watson &
Taylor, Ltd.-2 as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the results of its
operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 1995, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
 
As discussed in Note B to the financial statements, in 1995, the Partnership
changed its method of accounting for the carrying value of real estate by
adopting Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of.

                            (a limited Partnership)
                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
A. General
 
   Prudential-Bache/Watson & Taylor, Ltd.-2 (the ``Partnership'') is a Texas
limited partnership formed on November 14, 1983 which will terminate on December
31, 2050 unless terminated sooner under the provisions of the Amended and
Restated Certificate and Agreement of Limited Partnership (the ``Partnership
Agreement''). The Partnership was formed for the purpose of acquiring, owning,
developing and operating mini-storage and business center facilities. The
general partners of the Partnership are Prudential-Bache Properties, Inc.
(``PBP''), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Prudential Securities Group Inc., George
S. Watson, and A. Starke Taylor, III (collectively, the ``General Partners'').
PBP is the Managing General Partner and is responsible for the day-to-day
operations of the Partnership and its investments. At December 31, 1995, the
Partnership owned eight properties.
 
B. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
Basis of accounting
 
   The books and records of the Partnership are maintained on the accrual basis
of accounting in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires the General Partners to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
   Certain balances from prior years have been reclassified to conform with the
current year's financial statement presentation.
 
Property
 
   Effective December 31, 1995, the Partnership adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (``SFAS'') No. 121, ``Accounting for the Impairment of
Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of.'' Under SFAS No.
121, impairment of properties to be held and used is determined to exist when
estimated amounts recoverable through future operations on an undiscounted basis
are below the properties' carrying value. If a property is determined to be
impaired, it should be recorded at the lower of its carrying value or its
estimated fair value. For properties that are held for sale, SFAS No. 121 states
that they should be recorded at the lower of carrying amount or estimated fair
value less costs to sell. On December 15, 1995, the Management Committee of the
Partnership determined to seek bids for all of the properties held by the
Partnership. Accordingly, effective December 31, 1995, the Partnership has
reclassified its properties from held for use to held for sale and has ceased
depreciating the properties for financial statement purposes only. The adoption
of SFAS No. 121 had no material effect on the financial position of the
Partnership as of December 31, 1995.
 
   The determination of estimated fair value is based, not only upon future cash
flows, which rely upon estimates and assumptions including expense growth,
occupancy and rental rates, but also upon market capitalization and discount
rates as well as other market indicators. The General Partners believe that the
estimates and assumptions used are appropriate in evaluating the carrying amount
of the Partnership's properties. However, changes in market conditions and
circumstances may occur in the near term which would cause these estimates and
assumptions to change, which, in turn, could cause the amounts ultimately
realized upon the sale or other disposition of the properties to differ
materially from their estimated fair value. Such changes may also require
write-downs in future years.
 
   Prior to December 31, 1995, the Partnership carried its property investments
at the lower of depreciated cost or estimated amounts recoverable through future
operations and ultimate disposition of the property. Property investments were
depreciated or amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated
economic lives which range from 5 to 25 years depending on property type. A
provision for loss on impairment of assets was recorded when estimated amounts
recoverable through future operations and ultimate disposition of the property
on a undiscounted basis were below depreciated cost.

Cash and cash equivalents
 
   Cash and cash equivalents include money market funds whose cost approximates
market value.
 
Income taxes
 
   The Partnership is not required to provide for, or pay, any Federal or state
income taxes. Income tax attributes that arise from its operations are passed
directly to the individual partners. The Partnership may be subject to other
state and local taxes in jurisdictions in which it operates.
 
Profit and loss allocations and distributions
 
   Net income from operations is allocated 99% to the limited partners and 1% to
the General Partners. Net loss from operations is allocated 92% to the limited
partners and 8% to the General Partners.
 
   Cash from operations is being distributed 99% to the limited partners and 1%
to the General Partners. Proceeds from the sale of the properties and
liquidation of the Partnership will be distributed in accordance with the
Partnership Agreement.
 
   Net income per limited partnership unit is based on 51,560 limited and
equivalent units outstanding, which excludes 258 equivalent units held by PBP
(see Note E) for which PBP has waived all of its rights therein. Per unit
amounts for 1993 have been restated to eliminate the equivalent units held by
PBP.
 
C. Property
 
   The Partnership's property is comprised of the following:

   No single tenant accounted for 10% or more of the total revenue for any of
the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995.
 
D. Minimum Future Lease Revenues
 
   The Partnership earns a majority of its rental income from month-to-month and
other short-term leasing arrangements. The Partnership also has certain
noncancellable operating leases on the Partnership's properties. The minimum
future rental revenues receivable under these noncancellable operating leases at
the Partnership's improved properties are approximately $205,000 and $41,000 for
the years ending December 31, 1996 and 1997, respectively.

E. Related Parties
 
   PBP and its affiliates perform services for the Partnership which include,
but are not limited to: accounting and financial management, transfer and
assignment functions, asset management, investor communications, printing and
other administrative services. PBP and its affiliates receive reimbursements for
costs incurred in connection with these services, the amount of which is limited
by the provisions of the Partnership Agreement. The costs and expenses incurred
on behalf of the Partnership which are reimbursable to PBP and its affiliates
for the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993 were approximately $104,000
$95,000 and $101,000, respectively.
 
   Affiliates of Messrs. Watson and Taylor, the individual General Partners,
also perform certain administrative and monitoring functions on behalf of the
Partnership. In 1994, the Partnership recorded approximately $31,000 for the
reimbursement of certain prior periods' general, administrative and monitoring
expenses incurred by affiliates of the individual General Partners.
Approximately $24,000 was incurred in 1995.
 
   PBP and the individual General Partners of the Partnership, own 258, 130 and
130 equivalent limited partnership units, respectively. PBP receives funds from
the Partnership, such as General Partner distributions and reimbursement of
expenses, but waived all of its rights resulting from its ownership of
equivalent limited partnership units. Accordingly, limited partner distributions
per Unit and net income per Unit are calculated net of 258 equivalent limited
partnership Units.
 
   Prudential Securities Incorporated (``PSI''), an affiliate of PBP, owns 180
limited partnership units at December 31, 1995.

   The differences between the tax basis and book basis of partners' capital are

G. Contingencies
 
   By order of the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation dated April 14,
1994, a number of purported class actions then pending in various federal
district courts were transferred to a single judge of the United States District
Court for the Southern District of New York and consolidated for pretrial
proceedings under the caption In re Prudential Securities Incorporated Limited
Partnerships Litigation (MDL Docket 1005). On June 8, 1994, plaintiffs in the
transferred cases filed a complaint that consolidated the previously filed
complaints and named as defendants, among others, PSI, certain of its present
and former employees and PBP. The Partnership was not named a defendant in the
consolidated complaint, but the name of the Partnership was listed as being
among the limited partnerships at issue in the case.
 
   On August 9, 1995, PBP, PSI and other Prudential defendants entered into a
Stipulation and Agreement of Partial Compromise and Settlement with legal
counsel representing plaintiffs in the consolidated actions. The court
preliminarily approved the settlement agreement by order dated August 29, 1995
and, following a hearing held November 17, 1995, found that the agreement was
fair, reasonable, adequate and in the best interests of the plaintiff class. The
court gave final approval to the settlement, certified a class of purchasers of
specific limited partnerships, including the Partnership, released all settled
claims by members of the class against the PSI settling defendants and
permanently barred and enjoined class members from instituting, commencing or
prosecuting any settled claim against the released parties. The full amount due
under the settlement agreement has been paid by PSI.

H. Subsequent Event
 
   In February 1996, distributions of approximately $191,000 and $2,000 were
paid to the limited partners and to the General Partners, respectively, for the
quarter ended December 31, 1995.

          MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                           AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
   The Partnership owns and operates five mini-warehouse/business center
facilities and three mini-warehouse facilities. On December 15, 1995, the
Management Committee of the Partnership determined to seek bids for all the
properties held by the Partnership. As of March 22, 1996, preliminary bids have
been received for all properties. If bids for the properties are deemed
acceptable by the Partnership, the Partnership intends to enter into agreements
to sell the properties, subject to the approval of the limited partners owning a
majority of the Units as required by the Partnership Agreement. If such sales
are approved and consummated, the Partnership will liquidate and distribute its
net assets to its partners. There can, of course, be no assurance that
acceptable bids will be received or that any transactions will be consummated.
 
   During the year ended December 31, 1995, the Partnership's cash and cash
equivalents increased by approximately $410,000 due to net cash from property
operations in excess of capital expenditures and distributions to the partners.
Distributions during the year ended December 31, 1995 totaled approximately
$774,000 of which $766,000 was paid to the limited partners and $8,000 to
General Partners. These distributions were funded from property operations.
 
   The Partnership's ability to make future distributions to the partners and
the amount that may be made will be affected not only by the amount of cash
generated by the Partnership from the operations of its properties, but also by
the amount expended for property improvements and the amount set aside for
anticipated property improvements. Property improvements are currently budgeted
at approximately $127,000 for 1996.
 
Results of Operations
 
   Average occupancy rates for the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993
were as follows:

   (Average occupancy rates are calculated by averaging the monthly occupancies
determined by dividing occupied square footage by available square footage as of
                                each month-end.)
 
1995 vs. 1994
 
   Net income increased by approximately $87,000 for the year ended December 31,
1995 as compared to the year ended December 31, 1994 for the reasons discussed
below.
 
   Rental income increased by approximately $218,000 for the year ended December
31, 1995 as compared to the year ended December 31, 1994. Rental income
increased primarily due to improved rental rates at all properties. In addition,
all of the properties except Arlington, South May/I-240 and Santa Fe had an
increase in average occupancies.
 
   Property operating expenses increased by approximately $101,000 for the year
ended December 31, 1995 compared to the year ended December 31, 1994. These
increases were due to higher property level payroll costs at all properties
except Santa Fe, higher utility expense at all properties except South May
/I-240 and Arapaho, and increased insurance expense primarily at Arlington and
Hampton Park. These

increases were partially offset by decreases in repairs and maintenance expense
especially at Arapaho, Timbercrest, South May/I-240 and Cherry Hill. Management
fees also increased because they are based on rental income. In addition,
leasing commissions have increased since more of the commercial units have been
leased.
 
   General and administrative expenses increased by approximately $21,000 for
the year ended December 31, 1995 as compared to the year ended December 31,
1994. The increases are primarily due to increased professional fees and higher
costs associated with administering the Partnership.
 
1994 vs. 1993
 
   Net income increased by approximately $56,000 for the year ended December 31,
1994 as compared to the year ended December 31, 1993 for the reasons discussed
below.
 
   Rental income increased by approximately $152,000 for the year ended December
31, 1994 as compared to the year ended December 31, 1993. Rental income
increased due to increases in average occupancies at the Cherry Hill, South
May/I-240, Santa Fe, and South May/44th St. properties and an increase in
average rental rates at the Arapaho property. These increases were partially
offset by fluctuating average occupancies and rental rates at the Timbercrest
property. Rental income remained stable at the Arlington property because higher
average occupancy was offset by lower rental rates. The increased rental income
also reflects the impact of a non-recurring write-off of uncollectible
receivables at Hampton Park recorded in 1993.
 
   Property operating expenses increased by approximately $34,000 for the year
ended December 31, 1994 compared to the year ended December 31, 1993 due
primarily to increases in property level payroll costs, insurance rates and
repairs and maintenance expenses at the Hampton Park and Timbercrest properties.
 
   General and administrative expenses increased by approximately $34,000 for
the year ended December 31, 1994 as compared to the the year ended December 31,
1993 due to an accrual in 1994 of current and prior periods' general,
administrative and monitoring expenses owed to affiliates of the individual
General Partners and, to a lesser extent, a refund of legal fees received in
1993.
