             Sovran Acquisition Limited Partnership
            Pro Forma Combined Financial Information


The following unaudited Pro Forma Combined Balance Sheet as of
March 31, 1998 and unaudited Pro Forma Combined Statement of
Operations for the three months ended March 31, 1998 and the year
ended December 31, 1997, have been prepared to reflect the
Operating Partnership's acquisition of self storage facilities
and the adjustments described in the accompanying notes.  The pro
forma combined financial information is based on the historical
financial statements of Sovran Self Storage, Inc. included in
(i.) the Company's 10-Q for the three months ended March 31,
1998, (ii) the Company's 10-K for the year ended December 31,
1997, (iii) the historical summaries of combined gross revenue
and direct operating expenses included in the Company's 8-K
Report dated June 10, 1998 and 8-K/A Report dated April 17, 1998,
(iv) the other financial information in the Company's 1997 Annual
Report to Shareholders and (v) the Operating Partnership's
General Form for Registration of Securities Form 10, and should
be read in conjunction with those financial statements and notes
thereto.  The Pro Forma Combined Balance Sheet was prepared as if
the 22 facilities that were purchased after March 31, 1998, were
acquired at that date.  The Pro Forma Combined Statements of
Operations were prepared as if the 44 self storage facilities
acquired in 1997 and the 40 facilities acquired in 1998 were
purchased at the beginning of 1997.  The combined pro forma
financial information is not necessarily indicative of the
financial position or results of operations which actually would
have occurred if such transactions had been consummated on the
dates described, nor does it purport to represent the Operating
Partnership's future financial position or results of operations.
