                           Schedule 13D

     This Statement amends the Schedule 13D, dated October 21,
1992, as amended by Amendment Nos. 1 to 8 (the "Schedule 13D"),
filed by Dickstein & Co., L.P. ("Dickstein & Co."), Dickstein
International Limited ("Dickstein International"), Dickstein
Partners, L.P., Dickstein Partners Inc. and Mark Dickstein with
respect to the Common Stock, $.01 par value (the "Common Stock"),
of Banyan Strategic Land Fund II (the "Company").  Notwithstand-
ing this Amendment No. 9, the Schedule 13D speaks as of its
respective dates.


I.   Items 5(a), 5(c) and 5(e) of the Schedule 13D, "Interest in
     Securities of the Issuer," are amended by adding the
     following to the end thereof:

          "(a)  On June 5, 1995, in connection with the Company's
issuer tender offer (the "Tender Offer"), Dickstein & Co.
tendered to the Company the 1,180,000 shares of Common Stock
owned by it and Dickstein International tendered to the
Company the 286,700 shares of Common Stock owned by it.  The
Tender Offer was consummated on June 5, 1995.  On June 6, 1995,
the Company announced a preliminary proration percentage of 100%.
As a result, it is anticipated that the Dickstein & Co. and
Dickstein International each will have sold all shares owned by
it in the Tender Offer, and as a result the Reporting Persons no
longer beneficially own any shares of Common Stock.

          (c)  Arthur Wrubel, a Vice President of Dickstein
Partners, tendered to the Company all 25,000 shares of Common
Stock owned by him in the Tender Offer.  Except as described in
Item 5(a) above and this Item 5(c), or as set forth in Amendment
No. 8, none of the persons identified in Item 2 has effected any
transactions in the Common Stock during the past 60 days.

          (e)  As a result of the sale of shares of Common Stock
in the Tender Offer, the Reporting Persons ceased to be the 
beneficial owner of more than 5% of the Common Stock on June 5,
1995.  Accordingly, the Reporting Persons no longer have a 
reporting obligation under Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act with
respect to the Common Stock, and the Reporting Persons intend not
to further amend their report on Schedule 13D to reflect changes
in the facts set forth herein which may occur after the date
hereof."
