From ringing the NYSE closing bell with NAREIT in January to ugly sweaters in December, 2021 has been a year full of fun and achievement at Extra Space Storage. We always say our people make the difference, and this year has been evidence of that. Together, we conquered the challenges of 2020 and came back stronger than ever in 2021. Here are some of our favorite memories from this past year.
