📰About Public Storage

A new 58,791 sq ft self-storage facility is under development at 11901 FM 1097 in Willis, Montgomery County. The project, registered as PS Building M, is a single-story structure designed to match the existing buildings within the Public Storage complex. This new construction is estimated to cost $5,600,000, which works out to $95 per square foot.

Project Scope and Design

PS LPT Properties Investors serves as the owner of record for this privately funded development on private land. The design is handled by R & T Architects Inc, with David M Mcmillan registered as the accessibility specialist.

TDLR completed plan review in June 2025 and construction is scheduled to finish in September 2027, with work starting September 2025. The TDLR status is Review Complete. This two-year construction window is longer than the 213-day median build time for similar new construction projects in Montgomery County.

PS LPT Properties Investors has six other TDLR-registered projects totaling $19,957,085, including locations in Richmond, Copperas Cove, and Fort Worth. R & T Architects Inc has designed three other registered projects totaling $13,943,095, with completed facilities in Irving, Fort Worth, and Lamarque. The Willis project joins other recent developments in the area, such as the Market At Willis, Academy and Longhorn Steakhouse.

The surrounding ZIP code 77318 has a population of about 19,820 residents and a median household income of $90,246, according to U.S. Census ACS 2023 five-year estimates. Housing in the area is predominantly owner-occupied, with a median home value of $288,900. The Montgomery County unemployment rate was 4.8 percent in July 2026, higher than a year earlier.
