Driven by both empty-nesters and remote workers relocating and downsizing, the demand for self storage continues to grow in the Tucson area.
One developer is planning a seven-story self storage facility on Grant Road west of Interstate 10.
It will have about 1,000 air-conditioned units in the 10,000-square-foot structure that will be visible from I-10 and one of the tallest buildings in that area.
The developer, Abraham Slilaty, has four other self storage projects around town, two at Fort Lowell Road and Alvernon Way, one at Irvington and Midvale roads and one at Tanque Verde and Wilmot roads.
Bill Alter, of Rein & Grossoehme Commercial Real Estate LLC, represented the developer.
The project is expected to be complete in late 2023.
