New York based development firm The Continuum Company has closed on the purchase of 1755 Kennedy Causeway, a 1.34-acre site in Miami’s exclusive North Bay Village. Samuel Heskiel, CEO and Co-Founder at Beachfront Realty was the land broker for this deal, which was purchased by the firm for $35,000,000.

This land purchase marks the latest in Miami for New York developer Ian Bruce Eichner, who is well known for developing the Continuum South Beach in Miami’s South of 5th neighborhood, as well as launching their latest project La Baia. The site plan approval allows the firm to build a 31-story, 201-unit luxury condominium with a 13,415 square foot waterfront restaurant with over 45,000 square feet of resort-style amenities.

“With astonishing views, access to the beach and mainland, and a private island community, this was an obvious choice for our second-ever Continuum-branded project,” said Alexandra Eichner, President of Continuum Florida.

The firm plans to come to market with their second ever Continuum-branded project in South Florida Q4 of 2023.

“We envision North Bay Village the same way we once envisioned South of Fifth – with enormous potential for growth,” said Ian Bruce Eichner, Chairman and CEO of Continuum Company. “We believe the neighborhood is primed to undergo a radical transformation and we are excited to lead the way. We are bullish on North Bay Village and excited to continue to be a developer that ushers in a new era for the community.”

Set for a dramatic transformation, North Bay Village serves as a small enclave encompassed by two small islands between Miami Beach and the mainland of Biscayne Bay. With the neighborhood itself separated from the bustle of the nearby metro of Miami, the city's numerous attractions are still within a short drive including premiere shopping and the beach, showcasing the best of both worlds.

North Bay Village went almost a decade without any new developments, featuring more single-family homes than high-rises to keep a quaint community feel. According to Miami-Dade records, by 2025 five new condo developments are expected to be delivered. Pacific & Orient Properties recently broke ground on 7918 West Drive, a waterfront luxury condo development, and Shoma Group is developing Shoma Bay with a Publix and Shoma Bazaar food hall.

The Continuum Company experienced great success with La Baia South, which launched sales in October and sold out in under six months. Well known for producing visionary real estate developments, Bruce has an array of projects headlining his portfolio, including Madison Square Park Tower, City Spire, One Broadway Place, The Manhattan Club, The Royale and Montague Street in Brooklyn Heights, the Continuum South Beach and the Cosmopolitan Resort & Casino on the Las Vegas strip.
