 Public Storage, Inc. Reports Results for the Second Quarter Ended June 30, 2005

GLENDALE,  California -Public Storage, Inc. (NYSE and PCX: PSA), announced today
operating results for the quarter ended June 30, 2005.

OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2005:

Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2005 was $108,266,000 compared to
$92,360,000   for  the  same  period  in  2004,   representing  an  increase  of
$15,906,000,  or 17.2%.  This increase is primarily  due to improved  operations
from our self-storage facilities,  improved tenant reinsurance operations, and a
decrease  in  income  allocated  to  preferred  minority  interests  due  to the
redemption of our preferred units in the first quarter of 2005. These items were
partially  offset by increases in general and  administrative,  depreciation and
interest expense.

Net income allocable to our common  shareholders (after allocating net income to
our preferred and equity shareholders) was $60,763,000 or $0.47 per common share
on a  diluted  basis  for the three  months  ended  June 30,  2005  compared  to
$48,204,000  or $0.37 per common share on a diluted basis for the same period in
2004,  representing  an  increase  of $0.10 per  common  share,  or  27.0%.  The
increases in net income allocable to common shareholders and earnings per common
diluted  share are due primarily to the impact of the factors  described  above.
Weighted  average  diluted shares  increased to 128,618,000 for the three months
ended June 30, 2005 from  128,548,000  for the three months ended June 30, 2004,
due primarily to the exercise of employee stock options.

For the three months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, we allocated  $42,147,000 and
$38,780,000 of our net income, respectively, to our preferred shareholders based
on distributions paid.

OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2005:

Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2005 was  $204,677,000  compared to
$161,427,000  for  the  same  period  in  2004,   representing  an  increase  of
$43,250,000,  or 26.8%.  This increase is primarily  due to improved  operations
from our self-storage  facilities,  improved tenant reinsurance  operations,  an
increase in equity in earnings of real estate entities, and a decrease in income
allocated to preferred minority interests.  These items were partially offset by
increases in general and administrative, depreciation and interest expense.

Minority interest in income declined  primarily due to a reduction in redemption
and  restructuring  costs  associated  with  preferred  partnership  units and a
reduction  in rates  on  preferred  issues.  We  allocated  income  to  minority
interests  pursuant to Emerging Issues Task Force Topic D-42 ("EITF Topic D-42")
totaling  $874,000  and  $2,063,000  for the six months  ended June 30, 2005 and
2004, respectively. In addition, we allocated $8.0 million to preferred minority
interests  in the  quarter  ended  March  31,  2004  as a  result  of a  special
distribution associated with a restructuring.

Net income allocable to our common  shareholders (after allocating net income to
our  preferred and equity  shareholders)  was  $109,482,000  or $0.85 per common
share on a diluted  basis for the six months  ended June 30,  2005  compared  to
$70,131,000  or $0.55 per common share on a diluted basis for the same period in
2004,  representing  an  increase  of $0.30 per  common  share,  or  54.5%.  The
increases in net income allocable to common shareholders and earnings per common
diluted  share are due primarily to the impact of the factors  described  above.
Weighted  average  diluted shares  increased to  128,895,000  for the six months
ended June 30, 2005 from 128,375,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2004, due
primarily to the exercise of employee stock options.

For the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004,  we allocated  $82,560,000  and
$76,822,000 of our net income, respectively, to our preferred shareholders based
on distributions  paid. We also recorded  allocations of income to our preferred
shareholders  with  respect to the  application  of  Emerging  Issues Task Force
("EITF")  Topic  D-42  totaling  $1,904,000  (or $0.01  per  common  share)  and
$3,723,000  (or $0.03 per common  share) for the six months  ended June 30, 2005
and 2004, respectively.

FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS:

For the  three  months  ended  June 30,  2005,  funds  from  operations  ("FFO")
increased to $0.90 per common share on a diluted  basis as compared to $0.77 for
the same period in 2004,  representing an increase of $0.13 per common share, or
16.9%. For the six months ended June 30, 2005, FFO increased to $1.69 per common
share on a  diluted  basis as  compared  to $1.35  for the same  period in 2004,
representing an increase of $0.34 per common share, or 25.2%.

For the six  months  ended  June 30,  2005  and  2004,  FFO has been  negatively
impacted as a result of i) the application of EITF Topic D-42 in connection with
the redemption of preferred securities and, ii) in the case of the first quarter
of 2004, the payment of a special distribution to certain preferred unit holders
in connection with the restructure of the securities.

The  following  table  provides a summary of the impact of these items that have
occurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004:

In  addition,  FFO per  common  share for the six  months  ended  June 30,  2005
includes the impact of a gain on the sale of non-real  estate assets  previously
used by our containerized storage business,  totaling  approximately  $1,143,000
($0.01 per share), which occurred during the first quarter of 2005.

FFO is a term  defined by the  National  Association  of Real Estate  Investment
Trusts. FFO is a supplemental  non-GAAP financial disclosure and it is generally
defined as net income before  depreciation  and does not include gains or losses
on the disposition of real estate assets.  FFO  computations do not consider our
scheduled principal payments on debt, capital  improvements,  distributions,  or
other  obligations of the Company.  FFO is not a substitute for our cash flow or
net income as a measure of our liquidity or operating performance or our ability
to  pay  dividends.  Other  REITs  may  not  compute  FFO in  the  same  manner;
accordingly,  FFO may not be comparable  among REITs.  FFO is presented  because
management and many analysts  consider FFO to be one measure of the  performance
of real estate companies and because we believe that FFO is helpful to investors
as  an  additional   measure  of   performance  of  a  REIT.  See  the  attached
reconciliation  of net income to funds from operations  included in the selected
financial data attached to this press release.

PROPERTY OPERATIONS:

   a) See  attached   reconciliation   of  these  amounts  to  our  consolidated
      self-storage  revenues  and  operating  expenses.  Revenues  and  cost  of
      operations  do  not  include  revenues  and  expenses   generated  at  the
      facilities  with  respect to tenant  reinsurance,  retail  sales and truck
      rentals.

   b) Square foot occupancies  represent  weighted average occupancy levels over
      the entire period.

   c) Realized  annual  rent per  occupied  square  foot is computed by dividing
      annualized  rental  income,  net of  discounts,  by the  weighted  average
      occupied square footage for the period.  Realized annual rent per occupied
      square  foot  takes into  consideration  promotional  discounts,  bad debt
      costs, credit card fees and other costs that reduce rental income from the
      contractual  amounts due.  Realized  annual rent per occupied  square foot
      excludes  late  charges  and  administrative  fees  collected,  and  it is
      presented because we believe annual realized rent per occupied square foot
      is an important measure of our operations.

   d) Annualized  rental income per available square foot ("REVPAF")  represents
      annualized rental income, net of discounts, divided by total available net
      rentable square feet. REVPAF excludes late charges and administrative fees
      collected.  REVPAF  is  presented  because  we  believe  it is  useful  in
      evaluating our operations.

   e) In place  annual  rent per  occupied  square  foot  represents  annualized
      contractual  rents  per  occupied  square  foot  without   reductions  for
      promotional discounts, and excludes late charges and administrative fees.

The  growth in rental  income  during the  remainder  of 2005 will  depend  upon
various factors,  including our ability to maintain high occupancy  levels,  and
increase rental rates charged to both new and existing customers.  The following

DEVELOPMENT, ACQUISITION AND DISPOSITION ACTIVITIES:

During the second quarter of 2005, we opened one newly  developed  facility at a
total  cost of $6.7  million  with  74,000 net  rentable  square  feet.  We also
completed  two  expansions  to  convert  space at former  containerized  storage
facilities  into  self-storage  space at a total  cost of $4.9  million,  adding
106,000 net rentable  square feet of  self-storage  space.  We also completed an
expansion  of  an  existing  self-storage  facility  at  an  aggregate  cost  of
$2,417,000 (which includes a land component of approximately  $616,000),  adding
34,000 net rentable square feet of storage space.

At June 30, 2005, there were 48 projects that were either under  construction or
were expected to begin construction generally within the next year, comprised of
seven newly developed self-storage facilities (555,000 net rentable square feet)
with  total  estimated  cost  of  $81.2  million,  25  projects  (1,478,000  net
additional rentable square feet) which expand existing  self-storage  facilities
and enhance their visual appeal for a total  estimated  cost of $111.0  million,
and 16 projects  (1,215,000 net rentable square feet) to convert space at former
containerized  storage  facilities into self-storage space for a total estimated
cost of $45.3 million.  These projects will be fully funded by us. Opening dates
for these facilities are estimated  through the next 24 months.  The development
of these facilities is subject to various risks and contingencies.

During the second  quarter of 2005,  we  acquired  eight  facilities  from third
parties, with an aggregate of 570,000 net rentable square feet, for an aggregate
cost of  approximately  $58.7 million in cash.  These  acquisitions  were funded
entirely by us.

In addition to the  facilities  acquired in the quarter  ended June 30, 2005, we
acquired  three  additional  facilities  for  approximately  $18.2  million with
235,000 net rentable  square feet between July 1, 2005 and July 28, 2005.  Also,
at July 29,  2005,  we are under  contract to acquire 11  additional  facilities
(total  approximate net rentable square feet of 886,000) at an aggregate cost of
approximately  $119.4  million.  We anticipate that these  acquisitions  will be
funded  entirely  by us.  Each of these  contracts  is  subject  to  significant
contingencies,  and there is no assurance that any of these  facilities  will be
acquired.

During the second quarter of 2005, we acquired a minority interest in two of the
Consolidated  Entities for an aggregate  acquisition cost of approximately $32.4
million in cash.

During  July 2005,  in an eminent  domain  proceeding,  one of our  self-storage
facilities  located in the Portland,  Oregon market was condemned.  We expect to
receive the proceeds from the disposal of this facility during the third quarter
of 2005, at which time a gain of approximately $5 million will be recorded. This
facility has been reclassified as "discontinued operations" on our June 30, 2005
income statement and "real estate held for disposition" on our balance sheet.

ISSUANCE OF PREFERRED SECURITIES:

On April 27, 2005, we issued 5,650,000  depositary shares,  with each depositary
share  representing  1/1,000  of a share of 6.75%  Cumulative  Preferred  Stock,
Series  E. The  offering  resulted  in  approximately  $141.3  million  of gross
proceeds.

COMMON STOCK ACTIVITY:

As previously reported,  the Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of
up to 25,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock.  During the quarter ended
June 30, 2005, 32,000 shares were repurchased for approximately  $2,019,000.  No
additional shares were repurchased between July 1, 2005 and July 29, 2005.

When used within this document, the words "expects," "believes,"  "anticipates,"
"should,"   "estimates,"  and  similar  expressions  are  intended  to  identify
"forward-looking  statements"  within the meaning of that term in Section 27A of
the  Securities  Exchange  Act of 1933,  as  amended,  and in Section 21E of the
Securities  Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  Such  forward-looking  statements
involve known and unknown risks,  uncertainties,  and other  factors,  which may
cause the  actual  results  and  performance  of the  Company  to be  materially
different  from those  expressed or implied in the  forward-looking  statements.
Such factors are  described in Item 1A to the  Company's  Annual  Report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004,  "Risk  Factors," and include changes
in general  economic  conditions and in the market in which the Company operates
and the impact of  competition  from new and  existing  storage  and  commercial
facilities  and  other  storage  alternatives,  which  could  impact  rents  and
occupancy  levels at the  Company's  facilities;  difficulties  in the Company's
ability to evaluate,  finance and integrate  acquired and  developed  properties
into the Company's  existing  operations and to fill up those properties,  which
could adversely affect the Company's profitability; the impact of the regulatory
environment  as  well  as  national,  state,  and  local  laws  and  regulations
including,  without  limitation,  those governing Real Estate Investment Trusts,
which  could  increase  the  Company's  expense  and reduce the  Company's  cash
available  for  distribution;  consumers'  failure to accept  the  containerized
storage concept which would reduce the Company's profitability;  difficulties in
raising capital at reasonable rates, which would impede the Company's ability to
grow;  delays in the  development  process,  which  could  adversely  affect the
Company's  profitability;  and economic  uncertainty due to the impact of war or
terrorism could  adversely  affect our business plan. We disclaim any obligation
to  publicly  release  the  results of any  revisions  to these  forward-looking
statements  reflecting new estimates,  events or circumstances after the date of
this report.

(a)  The historical  operations of a self-storage facility that was condemned in
     July 2005, a commercial  facility that we sold in 2004,  and the historical
     operations of the containerized  storage facilities that we have closed are
     included in "Discontinued  operations."  Discontinued operations includes a
     gain on sale of non-real estate assets  previously used by the discontinued
     containerized storage operations totaling  approximately  $1,143,000 during
     the six months ended June 30, 2005.

(b)  On March 17, 2005, we redeemed all outstanding  9.5% Series N ($40,000,000)
     preferred  units and on March 29, 2005 we redeemed all  outstanding  9.125%
     Series O  ($45,000,000)  preferred  units.  In  accordance  with the  SEC's
     clarification  of EITF  Topic  D-42,  we  allocated  $874,000  to  minority

                                       6




     interests,  representing  costs  incurred when these units were  originally
     issued. As previously reported, in the first quarter of 2004 the holders of
     $200  million of the Series N preferred  units  agreed,  in exchange  for a
     special  distribution of $8.0 million,  to a reduction in the  distribution
     rate on their  preferred  units  from  9.50%  per year to 6.40%  per  year,
     effective  March 22,  2004.  This $8.0  million  special  distribution  was
     reflected  as minority  interest in income in the six months ended June 30,
     2004,  along with  $2,063,000  in costs  incurred  when the $200 million in
     units were  originally  issued,  in  accordance  with EITF Topic D-42.  The
     ongoing  distributions reflect a partial period for the time the units were
     outstanding during each period.

(c)  The increase in weighted  average  common share - basic and diluted was due
     primarily to the issuance of an aggregate of approximately 2,155,000 shares
     of common stock in connection  with the exercise of employee  stock options
     and  vesting of  restricted  stock  units  since  January  1, 2004,  offset
     partially by the repurchase and retirement of an aggregate of approximately
     1,166,000 shares of common stock since January 1, 2004.

(a)  Funds from operations ("FFO") is a term defined by the National Association
     of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT"). It is generally defined as net
     income before depreciation with respect to real estate assets and gains and
     losses on real estate assets.  FFO is presented because management and many
     analysts  consider FFO to be one measure of the  performance of real estate
     companies  and because we believe  that FFO is helpful to  investors  as an
     additional  measure of the  performance of a REIT. FFO  computations do not
     consider  scheduled  principal  payments  on  debt,  capital  improvements,
     distribution, and other obligations of the Company. FFO is not a substitute
     for our cash flow or net income as a measure of our  liquidity or operating
     performance  or our ability to pay  dividends.  Other REITs may not compute
     FFO in the same manner; accordingly, FFO may not be comparable among REITs.


(b)  On March 17, 2005, we redeemed all outstanding  9.5% Series N ($40,000,000)
     preferred units,  and on March 29, 2005 we redeemed all outstanding  9.125%
     Series O  ($45,000,000)  preferred  units and, in accordance with the SEC's
     clarification  of EITF  Topic  D-42,  we  allocated  $874,000  to  minority
     interests,  representing  costs  incurred when these units were  originally
     issued. As previously reported, in the first quarter of 2004 the holders of
     $200  million of the Series N preferred  units  agreed,  in exchange  for a
     special  distribution of $8.0 million,  to a reduction in the  distribution
     rate on their  preferred  units  from  9.50%  per year to 6.40%  per  year,
     effective  March 22,  2004.  This $8.0  million  special  distribution  was
     reflected  as minority  interest in income in the six months ended June 30,
     2004,  along with  $2,063,000  in costs  incurred  when the $200 million in
     units were  originally  issued,  in  accordance  with EITF Topic D-42.  The
     ongoing  distributions reflect a partial period for the time the units were
     outstanding during each period.

(c)  FFO per common share for the six months ended June 30, 2005 was  positively
     impacted by a gain on sale of non-real estate assets previously used by our
     discontinued   containerized   storage  business   totaling   approximately
     $1,143,000 or $0.01 per common share for the quarter ended March 31, 2005.

(a)  Funds from operations ("FFO") is a term defined by the National Association
     of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT"). It is generally defined as net
     income before  depreciation and gains and losses on real estate assets. FFO
     is presented  because  management and many analysts  consider FFO to be one

     that  FFO  is  helpful  to  investors  as  an  additional  measure  of  the

     dividends. Other REITs may not compute FFO in the same manner; accordingly,
     FFO may not be comparable among REITs.

(b)  Funds available for distribution ("FAD") represents FFO, plus 1) impairment
     charges with  respect to real estate  assets,  2) the  non-cash  portion of
     stock-based  compensation  expense,  and 3) income  allocation to preferred
     equity   holders  in  accordance   with  EITF  Topic  D-42,   less  capital
     expenditures.  The  distribution  payout  ratio is computed by dividing the
     distribution  paid to common  shareholders by FAD. FAD is presented because
     many analysts consider it to be a measure of the performance of real estate
     companies  and because we believe  that FAD is helpful to  investors  as an
     additional  measure of the  performance  of a REIT. FAD is not a substitute
     for our cash flow or net  income as a measure of our  liquidity,  operating
     performance,  or our ability to pay dividends.  Other REITs may not compute
     FAD in the same manner; accordingly, FAD may not be comparable among REITs.

(a)  We consolidate the operating results of additional  self-storage facilities
     that are not Same Store facilities. Such facilities are not included in the
     Same Store pool  either  because  they were not  stabilized  for the entire
     period from January 1, 2003  through June 30, 2005,  or because we acquired
     these facilities from third parties after December 31, 2002.

(b)  Self-storage  revenues and cost of operations  do not include  revenues and
     expenses  generated at the facilities  with respect to tenant  reinsurance,
     retail sales and truck rentals.
