To the Unitholders of
IDS/Shurgard Income Growth Partners L.P.

  RE: CASH TENDER OFFER FOR UNITS OF IDS/SHURGARD INCOME GROWTH
      PARTNERS L.P. (THE "PARTNERSHIP")

Dear Unitholder:

You should have received a copy of an Offer to Purchase dated July 2, 1996 
pursuant to which Shurgard Storage Centers, Inc. ("Shurgard") is offering to 
purchase up to 65,000 units of limited partnership interest 
("Units") in IDS/Shurgard Income Growth Partners L.P. (the "Partnership") at 
a net cash price per Unit of $257. The Offer expires at 11:59 p.m. on 
Wednesday, July 31, 1996, unless extended. Any Unitholder desiring to tender 
all or a portion of his or her Units should complete, sign and return the 
Letter of Transmittal that was sent with the Offer to Purchase.

As discussed in the Offer to Purchase, the Offer is being made pursuant to an 
Acquisition Agreement entered into by the Partnership and Shurgard. The 
Acquisition Agreement provides for a two-step transaction consisting first of 
the Offer, and then the Merger of your Partnership into Shurgard. In the 
Offer, such validly tendered Unit will be purchased for cash, subject to 
proration if more than 65,000 units are tendered. In the Merger, each 
outstanding unit will be converted into the right to receive shares of Class 
A Common Stock of Shurgard. Following the completion of the Offer, the 
remaining Unitholders will be notified of a Special Meeting of Unitholders to 
be held to consider and vote upon approval of the Merger. The notice will be 
accompanied by a Proxy Statement/Prospectus containing detailed information 
regarding the proposed Merger. Completion of the Merger is subject to certain 
conditions, including approval by holders of greater than 75% of the Units. 
Unitholders should consider the following:

- -  THE GENERAL PARTNER OF THE PARTNERSHIP HAS DETERMINED THAT THE TERMS 
   OF THE OFFER AND THE MERGER ARE FAIR TO UNITHOLDERS AND RECOMMENDS THAT 
   UNITHOLDERS WHO DESIRE IMMEDIATE LIQUIDITY TENDER THEIR UNITS PURSUANT TO 
   THE OFFER AND THAT ALL REMAINING UNITHOLDERS RETAIN THEIR UNITS AND 
   PARTICIPATE IN THE MERGER.

- -  Unitholders who tender their Units will not receive any further cash 
   distributions with respect to their Units. This is because the Net Asset 
   Value of the Partnership includes the cash held by the Partnership as of 
   March 31, 1996, a portion of which was subsequently distributed to 
   Unitholders by the Partnership during the second quarter of 1996. Thus, 
   the Offer price includes an amount of cash which has already been 
   received by Unitholders through a cash distribution made in the second 
   quarter of 1996. BY SUBMITTING THE LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL AND TENDERING 
   THEIR UNITS, UNITHOLDERS ARE ASSIGNING TO SHURGARD ALL CASH DISTRIBUTIONS 
   WITH RESPECT TO THE UNITS THAT ARE MADE AFTER JULY 2, 1996.

<PAGE>

- -  Those Unitholders who participate in the Merger would receive shares of 
   Shurgard Common Stock, thereby providing Unitholders with an opportunity 
   to continue to own an equity interest in a portfolio of storage center 
   properties, including the Partnership's properties.
   
- -  The number of shares of Shurgard Common Stock you would receive in the 
   Merger would be calculated by dividing $257 by the price of Shurgard 
   Common Stock during a pricing period set forth in the Acquisition 
   Agreement, provided that the price of Shurgard Common Stock is between 
   $22.25 and $27.75 per share. The Offer to Purchase provides additional 
   information concerning how the number of shares of Shurgard Common Stock 
   you would receive in the Merger would be calculated if the price is not 
   within that range. The closing price of Shurgard Common Stock on Monday, 
   July 15 was $24.875.

THE OFFER TO PURCHASE CONTAINS IMPORTANT INFORMATION. ALL UNITHOLDERS ARE 
URGED TO READ THE OFFER TO PURCHASE CAREFULLY BEFORE DECIDING WHETHER TO 
TENDER THEIR UNITS.

If you have any questions or need a copy of the Offer to Purchase or Letter of 
Transmittal, please call D.F. King & Co., Inc., the Information Agent for the 
Offer, toll free at 1-800-207-2872.

Very truly yours,
