Tenants of Miami’s newest office building can begin their workdays commuting by boat, along Biscayne Bay and enjoy spectacular views from the rooftop overlooking the Magic City’s famed sunsets. One Kane, the newest trophy Class A office building to rise in Miami’s Bay Harbor Islands, is offering a series of first-in-market amenities that include reserved dock slips and a boat valet, private office balconies, in office private dining and a generator capable of fully powering the entire building in the event of an outage. The 126,000-square-foot office building is the brainchild of a joint venture between Taubco, a Miami-based development and property management firm, and national real estate development firm Landau Properties.
Construction of One Kane has commenced following a groundbreaking in late January, and the development team has announced its first lease with renowned restaurant tenant BondST, the iconic New York City restaurant that will return to Miami for the first time since 2009. BondST will occupy nearly 17,000 square feet, including an elegant dining room and vibrant sushi bar, waterside dining terrace and rooftop lounge affording spectacular 360-degree views. At the helm of owner Jonathan Morr, the New York City icon has been a hot spot for over 25 years in the City’s NoHo neighborhood and opened a second location in the sought-after Hudson Yards in 2023.
“I’m thrilled to bring BondST back to Miami,” said Jonathan Morr. “Miami’s energy and synergy with New York make it the perfect place for our next chapter. We’ve been waiting a long time for the right opportunity in Miami, and with One Kane’s waterside location and thoughtfully designed spaces, we have the ability to create something truly special.”
Located at 9551 E Bay Harbor Drive, the development is rising on a prime site situated just steps from the upscale shopping and dining destination Bal Harbour Shops. The elite office property will cater to tenants seeking luxurious and exclusive conveniences including concierge services, bespoke valet attended parking, high security, coveted privacy, terraces from every office and in-office dining. Its location is at the nexus of some of Miami’s most desirable neighborhoods, including Bal Harbour, Indian Creek, Surfside, and Sunny Isles.
“Given the continued residential population growth the surrounding enclaves have experienced as a result of Miami’s business and wealth migration, construction of One Kane will serve pent-up demand for newly built luxury office space close to where executives live,” said Irwin Tauber, Co-Founder and CEO of Taubco. “The fact that our office tenants will be able to walk, drive or dock their boat at their business address is a game-changer for Miami’s world-class office market.”
Taubco and Landau Properties recently secured a $74 million construction loan from national real estate lender 3650 Capital to fund the ground-up construction of the office project that is set to deliver early 2027.
“As we begin construction of One Kane, we’re delighted to secure the iconic New York concept BondST as our anchor restaurant tenant,” said Jonathan Landau, Founder and CEO of New York City-based Landau Properties. “Given the caliber of office space we plan to deliver, we felt it was important to bring an F&B concept that would serve as a dynamic dining destination catering to the high-net-worth executives that will comprise our office tenancy and the surrounding residential neighborhoods.”
The seven-story One Kane is designed by Miami-based architect Luis Revuelta, whose visionary architecture has redefined the Miami skyline for decades. Every office space will boast floor-to-ceiling windows with ample natural light and terraces that provide private outdoor space with breathtaking views of Biscayne Bay, the Atlantic Ocean and Indian Creek Waterway. The office building will also boast storm-resilient features, including impact glass, concrete structure, a floodgate-fortified parking garage and natural gas generator to power the full building. General contractor Civic Construction oversees construction.
The Cushman & Wakefield brokerage team of Brian Gale, Andrew Trench, Ryan Holtzman and Edward Quinon is leading office leasing efforts. With a total of 75,000 square feet of leasable office space, the property offers luxury offices ranging from 2,000 to 18,000 square feet. According to Cushman & Wakefield’s latest office market report, Miami’s office market continues to benefit from strong market fundamentals and high employment, with the average asking rate increasing 10.7% year-over-year fueled by heightened demand for more high-end office space.
“Given Miami’s rise as the top business destination in the US thanks to its lifestyle offerings, favorable tax climate and 365-day outdoor living, the development of a trophy office building like One Kane is long overdue,” said Brian Gale, Vice Chair at Cushman & Wakefield. “With the influx of hedge funds, private equity firms, family offices and other financial service firms seeking premium quality office space, there is no other product in the market that can boast a built-in marina and dining led by New York favorite BondST.”
One Kane places tenants near the community’s most affluent shopping and dining options, including the world-renowned Bal Harbour Shops comprising over 100 designer shops and restaurants serving locals and visitors. It is situated near Indian Creek, Bal Harbour, Surfside, Sunny Isles and Miami Beach, and only a short distance to major expressways such as I-95, the Florida Turnpike and SR 826, offering convenient access for locals and commuters.
