The facility will also feature 24-hour security and state-of-the-art amenities.

The architect is locally owned Greenleaf Lawson and Kent Design Build is serving as the building general contractor for the project. The Civil Engineer is Duplantis Design Group and Richard Price Construction is handling the site work.

This project marks Stirling Properties’ newest ground-up, climate-controlled storage facility development,” said Townsend Underhill, President of Development for Stirling Properties. “St. Tammany Parish is experiencing fantastic population growth, creating a high demand for this type of product and its strategic location along the I-12 corridor provides high visibility, easy access in a secure environment and convenience for customers.”
