Storage Deluxe plans to build a nearly 220,000-square-foot self-storage building after buying a one-story warehouse at 74 Bogart St. in East Williamsburg, Brooklyn, NY. The company bought the warehouse for $45.5 million and plans to demolish it, then build a seven-story facility with about 4,000 units. Storage Deluxe said it will spend $50 million-plus on the build. CubeSmart will manage the site, scheduled to be ready by fall 2021.
Also, Storage Deluxe just finished building a nearly 250,000-square-foot site at 2880 Exterior St. in the Marble Hill section of the Bronx in New York City. CubeSmart is operating that facility.
