offering 636 newly constructed self-storage units at 15 Pleasant
St. Connector, a property that was acquired in March 2018.
U-Haul Moving & Storage of Framingham-Southborough introduced the completed

"We're investing in Framingham,
and now we're able to show off this state-of-the-art moving and
self-storage facility," U-Haul store general manager Mason Souliere noted. "This building was
constructed in 1966 and was vacant for many years. We invite the
community to stop by and see the work we've put into it."
The 93,088-square-foot building was formerly occupied by
Genzyme. Genzyme was once the third largest biotech company in the
world.

Scott Chase, U-Haul Company of

a clean, secure storage facility where our they will want to keep
their belongings."
Acquisition of the property was driven by U-Haul Corporate
Sustainability initiatives: U-Haul supports infill developments to
help local communities lower their carbon footprint. The adaptive
reuse of existing buildings reduces the amount of energy and
resources required for new-building materials and helps cities
reduce their unwanted inventory of unused buildings.
As an essential service provider, U-Haul remains open during the
COVID-19 pandemic while offering contactless business programs and
enhanced cleaning protocols, including added steps for sanitizing
equipment between customer transactions. U-Haul products are used
daily by First Responders; delivery companies bringing needed
supplies to people's homes; small businesses trying to remain
afloat; college students; and countless other dependent groups, in
addition to the household mover. Please visit
