The city issued a permit Dec. 17 for Shamrock Building Systems Inc. of Austell, Georgia, to convert a former Mandarin furniture store at 10830 San Jose Blvd. into a CubeSmart self-storage facility at a cost of almost $1.9 million.
CubeSmart L.P. bought the property, built in 1983, in 2011 from Anita and David Maron. It more recently had operated as the Encore Decor used, vintage and consignment store.
Plans show 18,024 square feet will be converted. CubeSmart operates a self-storage center nearby across Plummer Cove Road.
