ezStorage Columbia North

Construction is under way for the ezStorage building located on Red Branch Road in Columbia, Maryland. This is the second adaptive reuse ezStorage project we have done for this client after ezStorage North Charles located in Baltimore.  With the original use of the structure as a one story industrial building with offices, we were able to keep some of the exterior walls as the building is expanding horizontally and vertically.  As with most projects, design challenges oftentimes present themselves and that was certainly the case with this project. The design for this project required approval from the architectural committee of the local business association which dictated that the style of the building blend in with the rest of the buildings in the neighborhood. As a result, our office was tasked with departing from the typical red block exterior style yet retain the scale and character of their typical buildings. The four-story, 119,000 SF LEED Silver building will be completed next year blending in architectural harmony with the rest of the business neighborhood.
