I don't think he's talking about your condo or the immediate area. Check
the yellow pages under "storage" to see what's available in the city.
There must be something, usually they're intended for people to put their
stuff in while they're moving. Probably U-Haul will operate a couple,
they're usually the most expensive. Whether or not they'll let you use
those storage units for working on vehicles is another question.

Back when I was tagging along behind the Central Ontario 4x4 Club, I got
to go over to what they call "The Unit" (yeah, that's really what they
call it). It's an industrial warehouse / storage unit of some kind that
they converted to use as a garage, just like Barry's idea. I'm not sure
how you'd find one, as I've never seen anything like that listed under
storage (at least not around here). Maybe commercial real estate for rent
or something.

I've seen small car stereo & alarm shops, Rhino Linings dealers and other
small auto accessory dealers located in these kinds of places. There's
usually a whole row of different businesses all next to each other in one
building (like a strip mall, but more industrial). You walk through the
front door to a tiny business office, then you have to drive your car
around the back and find the big garage door for the particular business
you're interested in. Not a very good description, but I'm not sure what
the exact terminology is for this type of building.
