The William Warren Group will soon break ground on a $14 million StorQuest self storage facility in Denver’s RiNo neighborhood.

The company purchased an acre at Washington Street and I-70 with visibility to the freeway in November. Plans call for 80,000 square feet of storage space and 900 units. The building will feature in-house loading and unloading such that customers will drive through an entrance before carrying items from their vehicle to the unit.

The William Warren Group, which owns and develops the StorQuest brand, is a California-based developer.
