Why Demand For Self-Storage Is Strong In Charlotte

Taylor/Theus Holdings plans to develop a 135k SF self-storage facility in Charlotte at Ardrey Kell and Community House. The company had the land rezoned this summer and plans to complete construction by next summer.

"Aside from a few Class-A facilities, it was almost as if the market had missed the last development cycle," he says.
