                                  SCHEDULE 13D


         This Schedule 13D/A amends a Schedule 13D filed on January 3, 1997 (the
"Original Schedule 13D") to add certain additional information set forth below.
This Amendment does not repeat all information set forth in the Original
Schedule 13D.


Item 1. Security and Issuer

         This Schedule 13D/A relates to an investment in common stock, par value
$1.00 per share ("State Street Common Stock"), of State Street Corporation, a
Massachusetts corporation having its principal place of business at 225 Franklin
Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02110 ("State Street") and formerly known as
"State Street Boston Corporation".

         BNY Co. is not the beneficial owner of more than five percent of the
outstanding State Street Common Stock and will file no further amendments to the
Original Schedule 13D. Based upon information that has become publicly available
from State Street, it is likely that BNY Co.'s beneficial ownership of State
Street Common Stock did not, in fact, cross the five percent threshold.

Item 2. Identity and Background

         This Schedule 13D/A is being filed by The Bank of New York Company,
Inc., a New York corporation ("BNY Co."). The address of BNY Co.'s principal
place of business is 48 Wall Street, New York, New York 10286.

         Neither BNY Co. nor, to the knowledge of BNY Co., any of its directors
and executive officers has, during the last five years, (i) been convicted in a
criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or
(ii) been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of
competent jurisdiction which resulted in a judgment, decree or final order
enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject
to, federal or state securities laws or which resulted in a finding of any
violation with respect to such laws.


                                  Page 4 of 12
<PAGE>


         Certain other information concerning the directors and executive
officers of BNY Co. is contained in Annex I. Except as indicated in Annex I,
each of the directors and executive officers is a citizen of the United States.


Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

         Not applicable.


Item 4. Purpose of the Transaction.

         As reported in the Original Schedule 13D, on December 31, 1996, BNY Co.
filed an application and notice (collectively, the "Federal Reserve
Application") with the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the
"Federal Reserve Board") for approval, under the Bank Holding Company Act of
1956, to retain its investment and to acquire up to a total of 9.99% of the
outstanding shares of State Street Common Stock. On February 4, 1997, BNY Co.
filed a final version of the Federal Reserve Application. By letter dated May 6,
1997, the Federal Reserve Board agreed to BNY Co.'s request to suspend
processing of the Federal Reserve Application. Such request followed the
issuance of an order denying BNY Co.'s similar application to the Massachusetts
Board of Bank Incorporation ("MBBI"). BNY Co. has commenced an action in the
U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts seeking, among other
things, invalidation of the MBBI order.


Item 5. Interest in Securities of Issuer.

         See Item 1 for additional current information concerning BNY Co.'s
investment in State Street Common Stock.

         As of the date hereof, and since the filing of the Original Schedule
13D, BNY Co. has sold 1,646,800 shares of State Street Common Stock (on a post
two-for-one stock split basis). BNY Co. currently owns 6,350,800 shares of State
Street Common Stock for its own account, representing approximately 3.96% of the
shares of State Street Common Stock reported outstanding at April 30, 1997 on
the cover of State Street's Form 10-Q for the first quarter of 1997 (the "First
Quarter 10-Q"), taking into account a two-for-one stock split in State Street
Common Stock effective May 28, 1997 (the "Stock Split").

         BNY Co. holds, through its bank and trust subsidiaries, beneficial
ownership of 65,074 shares of State


                                  Page 5 of 12
<PAGE>


Street Common Stock in a bona fide fiduciary capacity, representing
approximately 0.04% of the shares of State Street Common Stock reported
outstanding on the cover of the First Quarter 10-Q, taking into account the
Stock Split.

         Annex I discloses, to BNY Co.'s knowledge, the number of shares of
State Street Common Stock beneficially owned by its directors and executive
officers.

         Annex II discloses information with regard to those transactions in
State Street Common Stock effected by BNY Co. in the last 60 days. In the last
60 days, BNY Co. has sold an aggregate of 1,600,000 shares of State Street
Common Stock for an aggregate price of $72,117,522.72. These transactions were
effected on the New York Stock Exchange through a New York-based broker.


Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships
        with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

         Not applicable.

Item 7. Material to be Filed as Exhibits.

         None.
