NYC city planners continue to make Self-Storage more difficult to develop within the city. With the moratorium on development within Business District Zone, and an overall scarcity of land within the Boroughs, entitlements are exceedingly difficult to obtain placing upward pressure on rental rates.

One of the five  boroughs of New York City, Staten Island is located in the southwest portion of the city, adjacent to New Jersey, and bounded by the Lower Bay. The borough is home to 476,143 residents with more moving to the city every day. In the last seven years, Staten Island has seen a healthy 2.3% population growth. In 2018, the U.S. Census Bureau reported that Staten Island was the only borough to see an increase in the population. Amazon and Ikea warehouse distribution centers have recently opened on the island, and these facilities alone have created over 4,000 jobs to bolster the local economy.
