NEWARK, N.J. — A joint venture between two locally based development and investment firms, CrownPoint Group Inc. and Lamar Cos., will develop a 1,200-unit self-storage facility in Newark’s Ironbound district. The site is a former salvage yard that comprises four lots totaling roughly one acre, and the six-story, climate-controlled facility will span 135,000 gross square feet. Construction is set to begin in the fourth quarter. Extra Space Storage will operate the property. Michael Klein, Jon Mikula and Ryan Carroll of JLL arranged a $19 million construction loan through Provident Bank on behalf of the development team.
