Riverside Drive has had some form of construction happening on it for the better half of the last 24 months. <\/span><\/span><\/span>Now, a new storage facility will be opening in March along Riverside.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Developer Trip Trezevant is working to renovate the former U.S. Steel Building at 666 Riverside Drive (next to the Exxon gas station) into a storage facility and a commercial retail node.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n The 100,000-square-foot building will be converted into a 350-unit storage facility. Additionally, a 6,000-square-foot retail bay will be added to the 2-acre property.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Trezevant said the first floor will be a Hamilton Self Storage, the ninth location in the Memphis area. The Riverside Drive site will have a 350-unit storage facility on the first floor along with a 100-vehicle storage facility in the basement level of the building. Both floors will be heated. Additionally, the site will offer moving equipment and U-Haul rentals, he said.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Trezevant said the retail bay is located on the first and second floors and he is still looking for a bank, restaurant or coffee tenant for the space.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n The second floor, which was previously office spaces for U.S. Steel (and later Cummins Mid-South before it relocated to East Memphis), will be renovated into offices for the storage facility.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Germantown-based Trezevant Enterprises purchased the building, which dates back to the 1940s, in April 2013 for $564,000, according to the Shelby County Register of Deeds.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
