Self-Storage to Workspace: Creating a Mixed-Use Facility for Higher Revenue
Discover how Bridge Storage in Richmond, Calif., converted part of its facility into art and music studios, creating a vibrant artist community in the midst of a blighted neighborhood and generating more income for the business. In this session, you'll see behind the scenes of the conversion process and hear what went right and wrong in the process. You'll learn what drove this project and why a similar project might be right for your self-storage facility. Our presenters will talk about the costs involved, the revenue outcomes, the legality of mixed-use occupancy and other issues.
You will learn:
- How to talk to your bank about mixed-use conversion
- The legal issues involved including zoning, change of use, code compliance and permitting
- The design, permitting and construction costs
- Cost-efficient construction strategies for creating legally compliant work space
- How to market and build community around a mixed-use project
