                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                 June 30, 1999
                                  (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 June 30, 1999 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, 1998.

   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. To
date, concentrations have not improved and the Partnership is reviewing remedial
alternatives. However, it is uncertain at this time what will ultimately be
required to resolve the environmental issue at the property. While the
Partnership intends to sell the property as soon as possible, 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.

   In conjunction with the liquidation basis of accounting, the Partnership has
an accrual as of June 30, 1999 for the estimated costs expected to be incurred
to liquidate the Partnership, including $98,000 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 June 30,
1999.

   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 June 30, 1999.

           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. To
date, concentrations have not improved and the Partnership is reviewing certain
remedial alternatives. However, it is uncertain at this time what will
ultimately be required to resolve the environmental issue at the property. While
the Partnership intends to sell the property as soon as possible, 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 1999 and 1998 periods.

Year 2000

   The Partnership has considered and is taking appropriate actions to address
the possible adverse effects of the Year 2000 on its systems and operations.
Accordingly, the Partnership believes the Year 2000 will not have significant
adverse effects on its systems and operations.
