Green Acres

When you identify a market in a developed area, it can be difficult to locate a large enough parcel at a price that makes a project feasible. Answer: build up. Planning a site with a wide interior access building is a good way to maximize rentable space on a parcel. In areas where rental rates support it, adding additional levels makes sense. Green Acres Storage serves Dubuque with three floors of storage, all heated and cooled with interior access only.

A portion of the exterior is clad with fiber cement panels with a brick appearance. The corners feature windows to show the doors to passing traffic.

The office also sells boxes and other moving supplies. Beyond the office is a spacious conference room. This is a nice addition for larger storage businesses, and is an amenity that can help attract business clients if you choose to allow them to borrow it.
