For Immediate Release
The self-storage construction industry is the fastest growing and most profitable sector of the real estate market. With the growing trend of residences being smaller and residents electing to downsize, self-storage facilities are an increasing requirement in most urban areas.
L.F. Jennings has completed several self-storage facilities in both the Washington Metropolitan area and Richmond markets, and is currently building the Ft. Totten Self-Storage facility for Johnson Development in Washington, DC.
Designed by Powers Brown Architecture, the facility is a four-story, 176,798 GSF facility that will blend into the architectural fabric of the neighborhood. Located in a predominantly residential area, the building uses high end materials of the Class A buildings in the area. Massing and proportion of the building takes its cues from the residential buildings with exterior features intended to mimic the rhythm of facades along the street.
The facilities storage units are on all levels, with on grade areas of the 2nd floor housing administrative offices. Parking and loading is accessible from the side of the building, hidden from the vibrant neighborhood and high traffic areas.
The Ft. Totten Self-Storage facility is scheduled to open Winter of 2019.
