                            (a limited partnership)
                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                               September 30, 1998
                                  (Unaudited)
 
A. General
 
   These financial statements have been prepared without audit. In the opinion
of Prudential-Bache Properties, Inc. ('Managing General Partner') ('PBP'), the
financial statements for the period ended September 30, 1998 contain all
adjustments necessary to present fairly such information subject to the effects
of any further liquidation accounting adjustments that would have been required
had the current realizable values of assets and the amounts of liabilities been
known when Prudential-Bache/Watson & Taylor, Ltd.-2 (the 'Partnership') first
adopted the liquidation basis of accounting as of October 1, 1996. Prior to
October 1, 1996, the books and records of the Partnership were maintained on a
going concern accrual basis of accounting.
 
   Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been omitted. It is suggested that these financial statements
should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto
included in the Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission for the year ended December 31, 1997.
 
   The Partnership continues to own the Hampton Park property located in Capitol
Heights, Maryland. This property evidenced certain concentrations of hazardous
materials discovered in an environmental review of the property. The property
continues to be monitored by the State environmental regulatory department, but
it is uncertain at this time what will ultimately be required to resolve the
environmental issue at the property. The Partnership intends to sell the
property as soon as possible; however, no buyer for the property has been
identified and it is uncertain when any such sale will be consummated.
 
B. 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.
 
   Affiliates of Messrs. Watson and Taylor, the individual General Partners,
also perform certain administrative functions on behalf of the Partnership.
Effective February 28, 1998, American Office Park Properties, Inc., a subsidiary
of Public Storage, Inc., terminated its management of the Hampton Park property.
The Partnership entered into a management agreement ('Management Agreement')
with Watson & Taylor Management, Inc. ('WTMI'), an affiliate of the individual
General Partners, effective March 1, 1998. WTMI is responsible for the
day-to-day operation of the property, including the supervision of the on-site
managers and the establishment of rental policies and rates for new rentals and
renewals and directs the marketing activity for the property. The Management
Agreement may be terminated by either party with 60 days' written notice, with
or without cause, and can be terminated upon a sale of the property. WTMI
receives 4.5% of the property's gross revenues (as defined in the Management
Agreement) as a management fee.
 
   In conjunction with the liquidation basis of accounting, the Partnership has
an accrual as of September 30, 1998 for the estimated costs expected to be
incurred to liquidate the Partnership, including $79,000 expected to be payable
to the General Partners and their affiliates during the anticipated remaining
liquidation period. The actual charges to be incurred by the Partnership will
depend primarily upon the length of time required to liquidate the Partnership's
remaining net assets, and may differ from the amounts accrued as of September
30, 1998.

   PBP and the two 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 has waived all of its rights resulting from its ownership of
equivalent limited partnership units. Accordingly, the 258 units owned by PBP
have been excluded from the calculation of distributions per limited partnership
unit.
 
   Prudential Securities Incorporated, an affiliate of PBP, owns 180 limited
partnership units at September 30, 1998.

           ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                      CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
   In accordance with the Consent Statement dated September 17, 1996, the
Partnership sold substantially all of its properties on December 16, 1996. The
Partnership has retained funds for a contingency reserve and to meet current and
future operating costs until the liquidation of the Partnership.
 
   The Partnership continues to own the Hampton Park property located in Capitol
Heights, Maryland. This property evidenced certain concentrations of hazardous
materials discovered in an environmental review of the property. The property
continues to be monitored by the State environmental regulatory department, but
it is uncertain at this time what will ultimately be required to resolve the
environmental issue at the property. The Partnership intends to sell the
property as soon as possible; however, no buyer for the property has been
identified and it is uncertain when any such sale will be consummated.
 
   The Partnership intends to liquidate after the sale of the Hampton Park
property and will distribute any remaining funds at such time. In accordance
with the Partnership Agreement, such distributions to partners will be made
based upon each partner's capital account for Federal income tax purposes.
Estimated costs expected to be incurred through the date of liquidation of the
Partnership have been accrued in the accompanying financial statements.
 
Results of Operations
 
   As a result of the Partnership adopting the liquidation basis of accounting
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles as of October 1,
1996, and thus not reporting results of operations thereafter, there is no
management discussion comparing the corresponding 1998 and 1997 periods.
