MORRISTOWN, N.J., Aug. 6, 2026 – JLL Capital Markets announced today it has arranged construction financing for the development of Extra Space Glen Rock, a three-story self-storage facility totaling 121,384 gross square feet at 161 Harristown Road in Glen Rock, New Jersey.
JLL worked on behalf of the borrower, Shadowbrook Capital, to secure the loan through Provident Bank. This marks the second construction loan JLL has arranged between Shadowbrook Capital and Provident Bank.
Shadowbrook Capital acquired the fully entitled 1.98-acre site in late 2025 and has engaged Extra Space Storage (NYSE: EXR), a top self-storage operator and REIT in the country, to manage the leasing and daily operations upon completion.
Upon its anticipated completion in 2027, the three-story, temperature-controlled facility will offer 92,175 rentable square feet and 891 units spanning the ground floor as well as elevator-access levels, ensuring customers can access their belongings year-round in comfort. Unit configurations range from compact five-by-five-foot spaces to expansive 10-by-30-foot bays, accommodating a wide spectrum of personal and commercial storage needs.
The facility will serve Glen Rock and surrounding Bergen County communities, an area characterized by strong demographic fundamentals and limited self-storage supply. The property's location provides convenient access to Route 208, a critical north-south corridor linking affluent Bergen County communities to major commercial arteries, including Route 4, Route 17 and Interstate 287. The site's proximity to these transportation networks positions the facility to capture demand from both immediate Glen Rock residents and the broader northern New Jersey market.
The JLL Capital Markets team was led by Michael Klein, Nazario Paragano and Michael Donohoe.
"The fundamentals driving this development are exceptional, a fully entitled site acquired all cash, immediate highway access serving one of New Jersey's wealthiest communities and management by one of the nation's premier self-storage operators," Paragano said. "These elements, combined with Shadowbrook's vertically integrated expertise, delivered a financing structure that reflects strong lender confidence in the project's execution and long-term performance."
"This project embodies our investment thesis: acquire premier sites in undersupplied markets with exceptional demographics," said Ben Leach, CEO and Founder of Shadowbrook Capital. "Partnering with Extra Space Storage and securing construction financing from Provident Bank positions us to deliver a facility that meets the growing storage needs of Bergen County residents and businesses."
