Groundbreaking Development: Wentworth Property Company

Within the sprawling urban desert of Phoenix, Ariz., a place MSM crowned “The Capital of Self-Storage” just over a year ago, the bold look of the new Wentworth Property Company is turning heads.

Managed by CubeSmart and located at 2045 W. Northern Avenue, the facility features a unique sloped roof, large bay, and a professional management space. Only two stories but appearing taller, it offers 92,000 net rentable square feet through 718 climate-controlled units, 24/7 surveillance courtesy of PTI Security Systems, and a solid labyrinth of doors and hallways by Janus International. 

The facility was designed by Robert Brown Architects, with Campbell Development handling construction.

The site’s L-shaped layout did pose a challenge, but by creating a unique drive-thru tunnel the facility was able to overcome this and enable tenants to load and unload inside the AC instead of under the desert sun.

The property, which opened on Oct. 20 following a 15-month build, may be new to the neighborhood, but management has already partnered with 19North Community Alliance, a non-profit organization that works to build safe communities. And that’s exactly the type of environment this facility provides.
