Stirling Properties Breaks Ground on Hammond Square Self Storage

Hammond Square Self Storage RenderingStirling Properties commercial real estate company has broken ground on the development of Hammond Square Self Storage in Hammond, Louisiana.

The 3-story, 93,902-square-foot storage facility will be located on the corner of US Highway 51 (SW Railroad Avenue) and West Minnesota Park Boulevard behind Walgreens. It will include 641 climate-controlled units as well as RV and boat storage areas.

Construction has commenced on the project, with site work and foundation work already underway. Anticipated completion is scheduled for the end of July.

Stirling Properties is developing the facility and will handle daily management upon completion. The architect is Houston-based Edgecomb & Associates, a firm that specializes in self-storage facilities, and Kent Design Build is the general contractor for the project.

“Stirling Properties is excited about the development of Hammond Square Self Storage. This project marks our first ground-up, climate-controlled storage facility development,” said Townsend Underhill, President of Development for Stirling Properties. “Tangipahoa Parish is experiencing significant growth, creating a high demand for this type of service. The strategic location in close proximity to Hammond Square and I-12 will provide easy access and convenience for customers.”

Underhill continued, “We’ve assembled a very talented team—with tremendous experience in the storage industry—to work on the development of Hammond Square Self Storage. Stirling Properties currently manages and operates several climate-controlled storage facilities within our existing portfolio that were redevelopments of previously occupied retail space.”    

Stirling Properties also redeveloped the neighboring Hammond Square shopping center located on the northwest corner of Interstate 12 and Hwy. 51. Hammond Square is Tangipahoa Parish’s premier shopping destination. Anchored by Dillard’s, Target, Sears, JCPenney, Academy Sports+Outdoors, and AMC Theatres, the 903,000-square-foot retail center offers a dynamic mix of national and local retailers, shops, and restaurants.

Stirling Properties Announces Louisiana’s #1 Megasite For Future Advanced Manufacturing & Logistics

More than 6,000 contiguous acres primed for development in St. Tammany Parish.
Bilten Park Aerial

Stirling Properties announces that Bilten Park has been named Louisiana’s #1 megasite for future advanced manufacturing and logistics. Strategically located at the intersection of Interstate 12 and LA Hwy. 434 on the Northshore of the greater New Orleans area, this 6,031-acre site was recently opened for sale/lease and development opportunities. Stirling Properties and CBRE are co-listing the property.

Bilten Park is a premier location for local and national business relocation and growth and is primed to support a diversity of future users. The development-ready site offers unsurpassed amenities such as intermodal accessibility—including 3.5-linear miles of frontage along Interstate 12, proximity to numerous major markets, a regionally unmatched labor force, quality employer base, and superior quality of life. Future infrastructure additions are planned for the site.

As part of the greater New Orleans region, St. Tammany Parish boasts a healthy and cost-effective climate for conducting business. Additionally, the area’s nationally recognized school system, first-rate medical facilities, large population density, and high median income make the community an attractive destination for companies of every size.

Louisiana Economic Development Secretary, Don Pierson, said, “At Louisiana Economic Development, our goal is to secure quality jobs for our citizens, retain and grow companies with existing Louisiana operations, and attract new investments to our state. As we engage in recruitment efforts, development-ready sites are a critical component of success. Today, investors make decisions quickly, and communities must have construction-ready sites. The Bilten Park site is strategically located to provide ready access to logistical infrastructure assets. From highways and railways to pipelines, ports, and airports, Louisiana’s infrastructure advantages are second to none. The Bilten Park site location can also count on the impressive workforce capacity available in St. Tammany Parish and the surrounding area. We are confident it will yield a significant new regional investment.”

Bradley Cook, Sales & Leasing Executive with Stirling Properties, said, “Our local amenities and culture enhance the appeal of this future developments’ success. The quality of life in the New Orleans area is incomparable. We enjoy a year-round calendar of events along with a vibrant art, music, and recreational scene. This site offers much more than a place to do business; it is truly a place to call home! We anticipate ample interest in this unique development opportunity in the usage of office parks, logistics centers, manufacturing facilities, healthcare services, etc. in the near future—from both local and national industries.”

Team Stirling Properties Spreads Holiday Cheer!

Covington Office Christmas

In the spirit of the Holiday Season, Stirling Properties participated in the Volunteers of America Christmas Wish “Angel” Project. For the 6th consecutive year, our company donated Christmas gifts, food baskets and other essential items to local families in need across our Gulf South region.

The annual Christmas Wish Project helps bring joy and holiday cheer to families and individuals who might not have a Christmas this year. Through Volunteers of America, participating families submit “wish list” gift items for each individual. The wishes are noted on angels and hung on the company Christmas tree where Stirling Properties and employees can select and grant them. This year, we were able to fulfill every single wish! In all, 18 families and more than 46 children, adults and seniors received Christmas gifts. Additionally, 10 families on the Northshore received food baskets with tasty treats and supplies for the holiday season.

Stirling Properties’ Stewardship Committee organized the company-wide event by partnering with Volunteers of America in Greater New Orleans, Greater Baton Rouge and the Southeast to serve the New Orleans Northshore and Southshore, Baton Rouge, Lafayette, Mobile and Shreveport communities.

In addition to donating to the Christmas Wish Project, Stirling Properties hosted its third annual Northpark Christmas Bazaar, Bake Sale & Raffle on Friday, November 17th. Local vendors, as well as employees of the Northpark office complex sold crafts, jewelry, ornaments, artwork, beauty products and many other great gift items.

Christmas Bazaar VOA Donation

The Christmas Bazaar raised $2,500, which was also donated in full to Volunteers of America to assist more families in our area with emergency holiday needs.

The Holiday Season is a time for gratitude, generosity and giving back to our region. Stirling Properties is committed to supporting the communities where we live and work, and we will continue to support local nonprofits, community groups and charitable organizations throughout the year and beyond.

Thank you to all of the vendors, donors and shoppers who made this project a huge success. On behalf or Stirling Properties, we wish you and yours a joyous Holiday Season and a Happy New Year!
