In New York, the Yonkers Industrial Development Agency approved financial incentives for a $15.4 million CubeSmart self-storage project at 1060 Nepperhan Ave., to be built by KCT Inc., and preliminary approval for financial incentives to a $15.8 million self-storage project at 1969 Central Park Ave.
The CubeSmart project involves finding another home for the current occupant, Health Products Corp., and demolition of the current 9,820-square-foot building. The CubeSmart would be eight stories and include 100,000 square feet of space for 750 to 900 units. Construction is estimated at 14 months. KCT Inc. garnered a recording tax exemption of about $231,573 plus a sales tax exemption of approximately $444,846.
The Central Park Avenue project would have a retail component, with 91,181 square feet for storage and 5,815 square feet of ground-level retail. 1969 Central Park Avenue LLC is the developer. Source: Westchester & Fairfield County Business Journals
Planned
Insite Development Partners of Torrance, CA, has applied for approval to build a SecureSpace self-storage facility at 825 Route 22 westbound at Wilson Avenue in North Plainfield, NJ. Insite would like to demolish the vacant building on the 2.18-acre site, former home of Best Friends Pet Care, and build a three-story, 90,078-square-foot facility with 109 parking spaces. It would require a change in variance because a self-storage facility is not permitted in the zone. A zoning board meeting is scheduled for Feb. 16. Source: My Central Jersey
